Do you have a typical platform dependent issue you're battling with ? Ask it here. Make sure you mention your platform, compiler, and wxWidgets version.

Post by dkaip »

Hello.
I am in a middle of a program, that start at beginning from Mint start-up applications.
To place at start up done by hand.
I am looking for a way installer puts program at start-up apps and at the end of program to checkout if there is link in start-up and if not, to make link again.

Not really a wxWidgets question, but surely this link will help you: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4078 ... program-co

Where "fluter" says:
The problem is not a C or C++ problem, rather you should consult the session manager's documentation of your distro, for example, if you are using gnome, you could create a startup file under $HOME/.config/autostart, and put the program path in the startup file.

There is a wiki listing how to manager autostart programs for many desktop environment:
