nick, use the attached patched on kicad :3 Under vcpkg, wxwidgets is put into a unix like dependency tree meanwhile the wxwidgets script assumes crazy prefixed distributed by wx scheme. With this it'll at least find the right path. If you are using VS2017, here's a sample CMakeSettings.Json

The findwxwidgets script in kicad is screwy, it can't even find wxwidgets in msys2 if I invoke Msys2 via a secondary terminal/application (i.e. using msys2 as a toolchain rather than shell directly). On Mon, Mar 12, 2018 at 7:02 PM, Nick Østergaard wrote: > I can't make cmake

I can't make cmake find wxwidgets from vcpkg. I think Thomas Figueroa also uses vcpkg, but he built wxwidgets himself to overcome this. So I think something is missing for wxwidgets in vcpkg, or something else is not quite right in that corner. 2018-03-12 23:36 GMT+01:00 Mark Roszko

The version string should look like 5.0.0-rc2-dev-176-g53c9143b6 or 5.0.0-rc2-dev. The latter only happens if KiCad is built from a source archive or git isn't available to generate the full version sting. Wayne On 3/12/2018 10:02 AM, Rene Pöschl wrote: > Hello > > It seems at least some
