Hi Werner,
Thanks for the quick reply. Once again, I overlooked the one most
important line in the guide several times... and when I followed it,
it worked. Well, it got a bit further. CMake now reports that it can
find the wxWidgets library, but the compilation still fails when
wx/wx.h is attempted to be included. I am using the following command
in cmd.exe:
cmake -G "MinGW Makefiles" -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=install
-DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
-DwxWidgets_CONFIGURATION=msw -DENABLE_MIX_CXX=ON
-DwxWidgets_LIB_DIR=C:/MinGW/lib
-DwxWidgets_INCLUDE_DIRS=C:/MinGW/include/wx-2.8 ..
>From what I can tell, CMake is not setting the include paths for
wxWidgets nor is it doing anything with the wxWidgets_INCLUDE_DIRS
variable I tried specifying (based on references in both
FindwxWidgets.cmake and UsewxWidgets.cmake). When I look in the
build.make file from plplotd.dir the entries for wxWidgets related
compilation have a -I option specified (right after $(CXX_FLAGS)) but
only has a space for the value.
src/CMakeFiles/plplotd.dir/__/drivers/wxwidgets_app.obj:
src/CMakeFiles/plplotd.dir/flags.make
src/CMakeFiles/plplotd.dir/__/drivers/wxwidgets_app.obj:
../drivers/wxwidgets_app.cpp
$(CMAKE_COMMAND) -E cmake_progress_report
D:\Projects\wxWidgetsTest\installationResources\plplot-5.9.2\buildmingw\CMakeFiles
$(CMAKE_PROGRESS_38)
@$(CMAKE_COMMAND) -E cmake_echo_color --switch=$(COLOR) --green
"Building CXX object
src/CMakeFiles/plplotd.dir/__/drivers/wxwidgets_app.obj"
cd
D:\Projects\wxWidgetsTest\installationResources\plplot-5.9.2\buildmingw\src
&& C:\MinGW\bin\g++.exe $(CXX_DEFINES) $(CXX_FLAGS) -I -o
CMakeFiles\plplotd.dir\__\drivers\wxwidgets_app.obj -c
D:\Projects\wxWidgetsTest\installationResources\plplot-5.9.2\drivers\wxwidgets_app.cpp
If I manually edit the file and put in the required -I<path> options
(there are actually two), then that section builds fine and a failure
occurs later on. I have not looked into the later failure, but it
appears to be something similar. I realize that I may not have the
files in their 'normal' locations, but I would expect to have control
over the include paths same as I do with the library path via
wxWidgets_LIB_DIR. Is there another option I should be using? If so,
what is the syntax for multiple paths since two are required? I tried
specifying CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS but it leaves the blank -I option in the
g++ call which causes g++ to mis-parse the command line and get
confused claiming it can't find the wxwidgets_app.obj file. Of course
CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS would be less than preferable to use for wxWidgets
specific includes anyways since most g++ calls wouldn't need those
paths.
As for the CMake version, etc. I am using CMake v2.6.2 (cmake
--version reports 2.6-patch 2) downloaded from:
http://www.cmake.org/files/v2.6/cmake-2.6.2-win32-x86.exe
What I was referring to as far as CMake 'missing' wxWidgets-2.8.9 is
based on the following excerpt from C:/Program Files/CMake
2.6/share/cmake-2.6/Modules/FindwxWidgets.cmake:
PATH_SUFFIXES
wxWidgets-2.9.4
wxWidgets-2.9.3
wxWidgets-2.9.2
wxWidgets-2.9.1
wxWidgets-2.9.0
wxWidgets-2.8.8
wxWidgets-2.8.7
wxWidgets-2.8.6
Based on my non-existent knowledge of CMake's inner workings, it seems
that if I had C:/wxWidgets-2.8.8 then CMake would find it based on the
C:/ entry under PATHS and the wxWidgets-2.8.8 entry under
PATH_SUFFIXES. On the other hand, I would think that
C:/wxWidgets-2.8.9 would not be found automatically since it seems to
be missing from the PATH_SUFFIXES list.
Thanks (again),
-kyle
