Build wxFreeChart using Visual Studio

Post by dcorbit »

I was able to build wxWidgets without any problems (batch build of every solution).

But when I try to build wxFreeChart I get errors like this:
1>F:\wxWidgets-3.0.2\include\msvc\wx/setup.h(119): fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: '../../../lib/vc_dll/mswd/wx/setup.h': No such file or directory

Here is my directory structure for wxWidgets:
Directory of F:\wxWidgets-3.0.2
2015-12-21 10:36 PM <DIR> .
2015-12-21 10:36 PM <DIR> ..
2014-10-06 01:33 PM <DIR> art
2014-10-06 01:34 PM <DIR> build

2014-10-06 01:33 PM <DIR> include

2014-10-06 01:33 PM <DIR> src
2014-10-06 01:34 PM <DIR> tests
2014-10-06 01:34 PM <DIR> utils

I have environmental variable WXWIN set to:
F:\wxWidgets-3.0.2

I am sure that it is something simple that you experts will know how to fix right away.
What am I doing wrong?

I assume you built wxWidgets in the default and recommended Unicode mode, i.e. the library files and intermediate folders have "u" in their names, such as %WXWIN%\lib\vc_lib\mswud\wx and wxbase31ud.lib.

AFAIK, wxFreeChart has not been updated for wxWidgets 3 and expects the ANSI build and names of the folders and libraries. You have to change those in the project settings.
