Problem compiling a WXwidgets application Topic is solved

[AcmeMan]

Hello
Everytime that i've tried to run the following program i got a run-time
error:

#include <wx\wx.h>

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{

wxMessageBox("Hello!");

return 0;
}

No Error during compiling and linking time, but i've a crash every time
that i try to rum the application. I've used dev-cpp and mingw developer
studio but the result is the same.
What's the problem?

I am not sure such a source code would work.

You should look at the samples delivered with wxWidgets ("samples" directory), especially the "minimal" one.

Now, regarding wether you wish to test a GUI or command line app, the code will be different... (precompiler directives, macro to instanciate the app, ...).

You should not need to write a "main (argc, argv)" function, unless you really have specific requirements with your app.

this works,

Code: Select all

//headers & declarations
#include <wx/wx.h>
#include <stdio.h>

//"console" like main
int xxmain(int argc, char** argv)
{
    printf(" %3d : %s \n", argc, argv[0]);
    wxMessageBox(argv[0]);
    return argc+20;
}

//wxapp
class MyApp: public wxApp
{
    virtual int OnRun();
};
IMPLEMENT_APP(MyApp)
int MyApp::OnRun()
{
    return xxmain(argc, argv);
}

build it as console application with macro

Code: Select all

wxUSE_GUI=1

defined
