I've compiled Freetype, but how do I get wxArt2D to use it? When I run Cmake for wxArt2D using
cmake -DwxWidgets_USE_DEBUG:BOOL=0 -DwxWidgets_USE_MONOLITHIC:BOOL=1 -DwxWidgets_USE_UNICODE:BOOL=0 -DwxWidgets_USE_STATIC:BOOL=1 -G"CodeBlocks - MinGW Makefiles" c:\user_data\david\code\source_pool\wxArt2D\packages\wxart2d I get -- searching Freetype via: c:/user_data/david/dajac/source_pool/wxArt2D/packages/wxart2d/share/wxwidgets -- Could NOT find Freetype (missing: FREETYPE_LIBRARY FREETYPE_LIBRARY_DIRS) -- FREETYPE was not found. CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:476 (MESSAGE): freetype not found If I run the same cmake command again, the error is gone and all seems fine. So I assume, the cmake script is smart enough to know that if it can't find Freetype, then leave it out. To help in locating Freetype, I defined FREETYPE_LIBRARY and FREETYPE_LIBRARY_DIRS when calling cmake, as follows. cmake -DwxWidgets_USE_DEBUG:BOOL=0 -DwxWidgets_USE_MONOLITHIC:BOOL=1 -DwxWidgets_USE_UNICODE:BOOL=0 -DwxWidgets_USE_STATIC:BOOL=1 -DFREETYPE_LIBRARY:STRING="freetype.a" -DFREETYPE_LIBRARY_DIRS:PATH="C:\user_data\david\code\source_pool\wxArt2D\thirdparty\freetype-2.4.2\objs" -G"CodeBlocks - MinGW Makefiles" c:\user_data\david\code\source_pool\wxArt2D\packages\wxart2d This prevents the "freetype not found" error from Cmake, but when I build with mingw32-make, I get this error: Linking CXX executable test_canvas_tiletest.exe c:/progra~2/codebl~1/mingw/bin/../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.4.1/../../../../mingw32/bin/ld.exe: cannot find -lfreetype collect2: ld returned 1 exit status mingw32-make[2]: *** [test/tiletest/test_canvas_tiletest.exe] Error 1 mingw32-make[1]: *** [test/tiletest/CMakeFiles/test_canvas_tiletest.dir/all] Error 2 mingw32-make: *** [all] Error 2 I suspect I'm setting FREETYPE_LIBRARY and FREETYPE_LIBRARY_DIRS incorrectly. What should be their values?
