It certainly would appear so:
C:\msys\1.0\local\wxMSW-2.8.10>dir
Volume in drive C has no label.
Volume Serial Number is D04E-AB3B
Directory of C:\msys\1.0\local\wxMSW-2.8.10
08/10/2009 05:23 PM <DIR> .
08/10/2009 05:23 PM <DIR> ..
08/10/2009 07:37 PM <DIR> bin
08/10/2009 05:23 PM <DIR> include
08/10/2009 07:37 PM <DIR> lib
08/10/2009 05:23 PM <DIR> share
0 File(s) 0 bytes
6 Dir(s) 339,789,967,360 bytes free
I eventually used the "--prefix=C:\msys\1.0\local\wxMSW-2.8.10" option with
configure, since the first time I configured and make (installed) the wxwigets
it didn't seem to install them in a separate directory, as the COMPILING.txt
implied. Rather, I think it was installed in the /usr/local/bin and /lib
directories (and cmake could not find them there either.) So I added the
--prefix so it would install in a specific place that I was certain of, and
included that location in the -DwxWidgets_ROOT_DIR option of cmake.
I hope that makes sense.
Anyway, I'll keep plugging away. :(
