Makes perfect sense and that's what I would have done (probably did do at least once, but not on a windows machine.)

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. :( --- In [email protected], Donald H Locker <dhloc...@...> wrote: > > Were the wxWidgets libraries actually installed at > c:/msys/1.0/local/wxMSW-2.8.10?
