I am following the same steps in this link but in vain.
http://wiki.wxwidgets.org/MSVC_Setup_Guide

I am facing these kind of errors.
fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'wx/wx.h': No such file or directory

or sometimes could not find assert.h etc. Please help me out to solve this problem.

Thanks in advance,
Mohan.

Were you successful in building wxWidgets?

Then what build it is?

The file inclusion error is shown when, file is not in the standard path. Add wxWidgets include (header file) path in your project's properties.

If you are not successful, Please give more info like what you did actually from the wx installation.

I will say the steps wat I did for my IDE set up.

1)I downloaded the wxwidgets and installed it.
2)I opened my vc++ ide and builded the wx.dsw workspace.
3)I builded classes according to the correct order and even created up the environment variable.
4)I went to Project->Settings and gave the values as given in the link.
5)when i compile the program it is giving this error "cannot find wx/wx.h."
Help me the steps to do in project->settings bcoz i think I am making mistakes in this step.
