I use VERBOSE=1 to get insight in the build process, but that was of little use
- most of the details are hidden in temporary files. So I checked the
dependencies file (CXX.includecache) and saw only include files from
d:\wxwidgets. Then I compiled the source file using the flags in flags.make and
the -E option to get the preprocessed source and found that both wxString and
wxSize were defined as expected (and used all over the place). So I sought the
.lib files (so-called import libraries) for the symbols that were missing. None
contained exactly those strings.
Okay, I went back to the wxWidgets site, downloaded the latest version (as that
was advertised). Exact same problem. Then I noticed something - there were
separate distributions for 32 bits and 64 bits environments. And then it hit
me: I had downloaded the _wrong_ bits version. From there on it went quite
smoothly. After some struggles with the path I got the build to succeed and got
an example to run. The only (!) problem left is that on line 378 in
wxwidgets_dev.cpp the variable "offset" is used but was not previously set.
This causes a debug error under MSVC:
[cid:image001.png@01D2FA8F.0E63E220]
A quick check of the source code did not tell me how to solve that, so I will
have to leave that to you.
By the way, the correct 64-bits libraries are installed in a directory
containing the "x64" suffix. So my earlier change was (a) not necessary (b) an
indication I had downloaded the wrong libraries. If only they had used "x86" or
"x32" or something for 32-bits versions ...
Regards,
Arjen
