Unable to compile a simple application

[srini2174]

Hi,

I am trying to compile a simple wxwidget application, but I get an undefined reference to undefined reference to `wxWindow::LoadNativeDialog(wxWindow*, int&).

I am using wxwidgets 3.1.0 on a widows 10 machine. I have compiled wxwidgets & the application with mingw-gcc 5.4 64bit gcc compiler. Any help in resolving this would be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Are you able to compile and run the 'minimal' sample provided with the library?

Thank you.

[srini2174]

Hi,
Yes. I am able to compile the minimal sample application but used the makefile which was provided along with it. In this example I am trying to use CMAKE to compile the sample. When I do this all the files are compiled correctly, but I get the error in the linking step. I am attaching the workspace I am using for reference.

The cmake modules in the config directory are from https://github.com/cmake-basis/modules
and the example which I have used are from https://github.com/T-Rex/wxModularApp


I always get the linker error
undefined reference to `wxWindow::LoadNativeDialog(wxWindow*, int&)'

https://github.com/T-Rex/wxModularApp does not look like a good sample to use.

From where did you get the mingw-gcc 5.4 64bit gcc compiler?

Hi,
If "minimal" sample compiles and runs correctly, then just use the minimal Makefile to compile the sample.
CMake unfortunately is still WIP.

Thank you.

[srini2174]

Hi,

I can use the makefile which is used for compiling the minimal sample. But I want to build a modular application. In the workspace I attached earlier if I change the library type to STATIC then the workspace compiles successfully. But when I change the type to SHARED library I get the link errors.

Thanks in advance for any help

Hi,
What errors did you receive?
I don't need to see the project - just the errors exactly as they appears in the build log.

Thank you.

[srini2174]

It is exactly the same error which I had posted earlier. I am posting it once again for reference

Hi,
I don't see where do you link the wx libraries.
As I said - CMake is WIP unfortunately.

You can try to check out CMake configuration in the Git HEAD for minimal sample and do something similar or in the meantime install CodeBlocks and try to compile your project with it.
The other possibility is to install MSVC free edition as it will be much simpler - everything is already ready for you.

Thank you.

Hi,

I did a recompilation of the whole wxwidgets using cmake. After doing this I was able to compile the application with mingw 64 bit compiler.

I also compiled a version of wxwidgets with VS 2017 version. When I try to recompile the same application with VS2017 I get the following error.
