App stopped running suddenly

Do you have a question about makefiles, a compiler or IDE you are using and need to know how to set it up for wxWidgets or why it doesn't compile but other IDE's do ? Post your questions here.

It's impossible to say something specific with this little information. Especially we'd need a complete call stack that also shows the last location in your code that was called. You should use a debug build of your application.

Most likely there is a logical error in your code. The crash itself could point to a bad wxSizer pointer assigned to a wxWindow. But that's all i could say.
Use the source, Luke!

I just had it running yesterday and for some reason it stopped working!


Maybe a little tweaking in the designer and source code.

But no change was done without any broken compile.

That's all I have in the call stack.

How am I supposed to debug with that info of call stack?

You are creating a release build (which does not contain debug information). You need to create a debug build.

But as i don't know Code:Blocks, i can't tell you exactly how to do that.

Got That!!!

So I need to create a Debug Build. That makes sense now.

But how in the world am I supposed to change the wxwidgets Compiled project with an existing application.

Because when I created the application I had to select the compiled wxwidgets code.

Is there a way to change the build debug to an existing application?

Please help!!

I would advise to have (at least) two configurations builds in your application - Debug and Release.

Code::Blocks makes this easy as it allows you to have multiple build targets where you can set build option for each target independently.
