wxWidgets on vista

Post by rrcn »

I want to use wxWidgets on vista with visual express c++ 2008.
The install tutorial says the instructions are for windows xp.
I tried for myself on vista but a very simple c++ application gives me 2 link errors: unresolved external symbol.
Can I still use wxWidgets on vista?

You can use wxWidgets under Vista.
If you post the build log of your application then it is possible that someone will suggest the solution of your problem.

I am using wxWidgets on Windows Vista with latest Visual Studio express without a problem. If you explain what are you trying to do we can find the solution.

It has nothing to do with Vista. If you get 'unresolved external symbol' errors, then you're not linking against proper libs. Make sure you have followed the tutorial carefully.

The problem was with the preprocessor definitions.
It's ok now.
I've copied the ones from the minimalist example.
Sorry for only replying to the answers now!
