For anyone looking to get up and running with wxWidgets in visual studio - THIS IS THE RIGHT SERIES! After spending a bunch of time sifting through outdated/incomplete wxWidgets documentation and other inconsistent youtube walkthroughs, finding this is a relief. Everything is clearly explained and works perfectly. Thanks a lot, great work!
@@poggarzz You need to link your project to wxWidgets. Doing so will be different if you use a text editor. Once you figure that out you can follow the rest of the series no problem 😊
Not only you have helped in installing wxWidgets here, you have made concept of libraries very clear for me. Thanks for your amazing video! Short and complete!
*Having Problems?* *Project Setup* Go to Properties -> C/C++ -> Preprocessor and check the "Preprocessor Definitions". Here you should have the flag "_UNICODE". For me it was there by default, if it is missing you have to add it explicitly. There is also an easier more convenient way to setup a wxWidgets project. I cover it in this video: ua-cam.com/video/urIpZnCTeKw/v-deo.html *Building the library* The wxWidgets solution file MUST match the version of Visual Studio you are using. Make sure you are using the right one: wx_vc17 - Visual Studio 2022 wx_vc16 - Visual Studio 2019 wx_vc15 - Visual Studio 2017 wx_vc14 - Visual Studio 2015
@@atlantic_love I don't think you can but I'm very new to comp sci so I could be wrong. My thought process is that wxWidgets uses features of the Microsoft visual C++ compiler so unless codeblocks let's you use other compilers etc, I don't think you can. If codeblocks does let you choose a compiler, you would need to look up how to switch it to use the correct compiler as wxWidgets, and anything else that wxWidgets needs. As far as adding the library, codeblocks should have plenty of documentation on how to do it. It's basically the same process but the menus are different
@@atlantic_loveit has to be that way though, at the end of the day digital information is all binary. There are different levels of programming. Assembly Language for example pets you control more of the code like where in memory data gets stored but it's super complex whereas c++ has less control over what you can do. The less complex it is the less you can do. Since everything ends up getting translated to binary, there really isn't any way to make an easy to use language that you can use to program anything you would be able to in binary
@@atlantic_love I've recently learned that wxWidgets provides a property sheet that you can use to setup a project much faster. You can see the approach in this video: ua-cam.com/video/urIpZnCTeKw/v-deo.html 😊
Beautiful! This is very exciting to be setting up a cross-platform GUI dev project! Very well explained with important terminology and the pacing and steps are informative, yet not too informative
Man, i must say thank you, out of every video, yours is the only one that actually worked. I subscribe immediately. Just a few questions, hope you dont mind. Why is it that other guides indicate that you must modify the preprocessor definitions under the c++ tab? Is there any advantage on using the precompiled wxwidgets dlls/headers on the site? Is their setup similar to the manually built ones? God bless.
Thank you! I'm glad it worked. You are always welcome to ask questions, I will try my best to answer them. There are a few symbols that should be defined for the C++ preprocessor in some cases. They are __WXMSW__, _UNICODE, NDEBUG, WXUSINGDLL. __WXMSW__ ensures that wxWidgets uses the correct port (i.e. it is not trying to build a Mac GUI on Windows for example). However, it seems to be defined without you having to do anything. _UNICODE is also defined by default. You can see that under the C++ tab. NDEBUG should be defined for Release configuration and it is by default. You can also see that under the C++ tab. WXUSINGDLL should only be defined if you are using DLLs. In this video we use static libraries instead. The only advantage to using the precompiled binaries (DLLs) is that the setup should be easier. wxWidgets recommend that you build the library from source, just like we did in this video. I hope that makes sense 😀
Very instructive video, thank you. Do you think that those instructions can be followed to install wxWidgets on Visual Studio Code and Eclipse CDT as well?
I think you'd have to use Visual Studio build tools for C/C++ from the developer command prompt to have that work. I don't know how to even install the build tools alone so I'm not sure.
I have to link to a static 32-bit library, so need a c/cpp gui that can build into 32-bit. I've tried Visual Studio Community 2022 (Win10x64) with the NAppGUI library, but could only get it to build x64.. not x32. "LNK1112 module machine type 'x86' conflicts with target machine type 'x64'" Then I tried a 32-bit console program using Tk ( ActiveState's ActiveTcl or from Sourceforge) + Boost and setting the include path to the Tcl/Tk directories (C:\Tcl\include and cpptk_h and cpptk_cc files cpptkbase.h and cpptkbase_cc ). I'm sure I'm doing something wrong but same kind of error. How easy is it to build a 32-bit executable using C++/wxWidgets?
i hope that by now you might have realized that you may have been using visual studio code when you needed visual studio (they are different and have major differences)
thank you for the tutorial i tried many other tutorials and they used anything else instead of empty project but that tutorial seems like straightfoward at least for now
6:52 For some reason i do not have any Linker there. I only have the Configuartion Properties and C/C++ . I swear there is always something that throws me off. IT can never go smoothly for me.
Would you mind sending your entire project to ottobotcodehelp@gmail.com? It can be as a zip or github link. I'll take a look and hopefully find the problem for you.
I'm afraid that the evaluated values screen for $(WXWIN)\include are not producing the same results as in the video. It just says \include and \include\msvc before %(AdditionalIncludeDirectories)
Unfortunately I ran into the following linker error: error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol WinMain referenced in function "int __cdecl invoke_main(void)" (?invoke_main@@YAHXZ) I have followed all the steps from the video. The only differences between my setup und the one presented in the tutorial are versions (I have VS 2022 and wxWidgets-3.2.5). Could somebody help me?
did you try building the all the configurations, for what ever reason static won't build for me. It seems everyone always just builds the x86 dll one..(other videos I have watched)
Hi. Your instructions are very helpful and I'm able to do this on my virtual Windows machine. However, I want to use my MacBook for more convenience. Are there any ways I can do this on VSCode for Mac? Thank you very much ❤
When I am trying to open the .sln file, it isnt showing me any version to open it. I have the latest vs code and the Im trying to open the vc17 file. Please help
Thanks bro, i spent a 2 days trying to install first on gcc, and one day on vs and that short video show me how to do it on static. (and instead building x86 and x64 +debug, release you can use batch build and select all)
My dumbass literally commenting error message i had until i dropped it to chatgpt and appearently i was not listening. Thank you for making me a little more tech literate.
Thanks. This is the third video I have watched but, the first one that worked. It took me three times but I got it. I need to slow down and pay more attention. A personal problem I know. But thanks.
I was getting the 'cannot open source file error' and I realized after an hour that the reason was simply because there was no 'mswud' inside the 'lib' folder, because I didn't build the debug version for x64, but just the release version! Hope this helps if someone is having the same problem
Hey bro please help me I am using the new vs code and I don't see any debug, build, release, win32 etc options. What should I do to use the vs code solution file
Great tutorial. However, I am not seeing visual studios solution files inside the build >msw folder. I am running Windows 10 and I have VS Code install. I use it for my other coding.
When I try to build the debug x64 version ( debug and release of win32 build OK) of wxWidgets 3.2.4 using wx_vc17 - in Visual Studio 2022 (Microsoft Visual Studio Community 2022 (64-bit) - Current Version 17.9.4) I get an unsuccessful build. It mentions error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'wx/setup.h': No such file or directory multiple times.
HELP! I NEED HELP! I'm tryingto install the latest version of wxWidgets to use with Red Panda DevC++ compiler. I compiled the library from source & the "samples/minimal" example from the command line. My problem is getting anything to work in the Red Panda DevC IDE I'm having the same problem with my Embarcadero IDE!
Frankly I left embarcadero because it is just a mess when it comes to compatiblity, it has all kind of issues when working with external libraries, you are better off using visual studio.
I am getting an error that says cannot open file '$(WXWIN)\lib\vc_lib.obj'. Yet it recognizes all my include line #include . At least there is no red squiggly line under the includes relating to wxwidgets. How can I get past this error message at build time?
I'd love to help! Send your entire project (github link is fine) and the error you get to ottobotcodehelp@gmail.com. Then I'll take a look and see if I can figure out what is wrong ☺️
Ahtung!!! For those who can not build check following: Properties -> Configuration properties -> Advanced -> Character Set. And change this field to "Use Unicode Character Set"
Hello dear brother, your videos are very informative, thank you for this. I have a question for you. Can I develop my own desktop application using the method you showed? For example, I want to make a simple application that calculates the acceleration of an object under the influence of the applied force (for example). This app needs to be downloadable for everyone. Is the path you showed suitable for this? If not can you guide me?
I followed this video. It was really helpful. Is there anything to be aware of for like the future? Like do I need to undo what I did when following your video if I want to use other libraries that aren't wxWidgets, or when coding in a different langauge or something like that? I'm learning this stuff for the first time, so I'm guessing this is a stupid question, but i reallly want to be sure
Everything here is specific to C++ and the wxWidgets GUI library. If you want to write C++, and don't need any third party libraries, all you have to do (on Windows) is create a blank project in Visual Studio and start writing code. Other C++ libraries will have their own installation process that may or may not be similar to the one for wxWidgets. Other programming languages like C# and Python have other means of creating projects and using libraries. It is typically much simpler than what you see here. I hope this helps!
Thank you. Unfortunately, I don't have a video covering the project setup in VS Code. However, for the other videos it doesn't matter which editor you use. You can look elsewhere for a guide on wxWidgets setup in VS Code and then come back and follow the rest of my videos (if you want to) 😊
