How to compile WxWidgets in a 64bit windows 7 box? Error...

[imoveisn...@gmail.com]

I can compile WxWidgets on mu old laptop (win Xp, 32 bit) but not in my 64 bit win 7 box

I downloaded minGW-w64 from http://tdragon.net/recentgcc/

I installed codeblocks and no problems

I downloaded wxWidgets-3.0.0 tar.gz and now I am truing to compil it as i ddid in the xp box.

mingw32-make.exe -f makefile.gcc BUILD=release SHARED=1 MONOLITHIC=1 UNICODE=1 CFLAGS="-m32" CXXFLAGS="-m32" L
DFLAGS="-m32"

...
gw32/bin/ld.exe: i386:x86-64 architecture of input file `gcc_mswudll\monodll_ver
sion_rc.o' is incompatible with i386 output
collect2.exe: error: ld returned 1 exit status
makefile.gcc:5202: recipe for target '..\..\lib\gcc_dll\wxmsw30u_gcc_custom.dll'
failed
mingw32-make.exe: *** [..\..\lib\gcc_dll\wxmsw30u_gcc_custom.dll] Error 1

Then I overwiten WINDRES using the one from xp box and

mingw32-make.exe -f makefile.gcc BUILD=release SHARED=1 MONOLITHIC=1 UNICODE=1 CFLAGS="-m32" CXXFLAGS="-m32" L
DFLAGS="-m32"

c:/tdm-gcc-64/bin/../lib/gcc/x86_64-w64-mingw32/4.8.1/../../../../x86_64-w64-min
gw32/bin/ld.exe: i386:x86-64 architecture of input file `gcc_mswuddll\monodll_ve

Why is so hard to compile wxwidgets in a 64 bit box? Please, help me...

Do you try to compile 32Bit or 64Bit (output)? The "-m32" produces 32bit object/library/dll's. If so you have to add the windres parameter for 32bit (--target=pe-i386). The problem is the wx.manifest file which is different for 32bit and 64bit applications.

 

Best regards

Hi.

Here is the command line I've used to build a 32 bits version of the libs using the 64 bits compiler (as it seems to be want you want to do) :

 

mingw32-make.exe -f makefile.gcc BUILD=release UNICODE=1 SHARED=1 MONOLITHIC=1 USE_WEBVIEW=1 CXXFLAGS="-m32 -fno-keep-inline-dllexport" CPP="gcc -E -D_M_IX86" LDFLAGS="-m32" CPPFLAGS="-m32" WINDRES="windres --use-temp-file -F pe-i386"

I restored the original windres.exe and did:

C:\Users\ncosta\Desktop\wxWidgets-3.0.0\build\msw>mingw32-make.exe -f makefile.g

cc BUILD=debug SHARED=1 MONOLITHIC=1 UNICODE=1 CFLAGS="-m32" CXXFLAGS="-m32" LDF

LAGS="-m32" --target=pe-i386 

It says this:

mingw32-make.exe: unrecognized option '--target=pe-i386'

I am now trying...

mingw32-make.exe -f makefile.gcc BUILD=release UNICODE=1 SHARED=1 MONOLITHIC=1 USE_WEBVIEW=1 CXXFLAGS="-m32 -fno-keep-inline-dllexport" CPP="gcc -E -D_M_IX86" LDFLAGS="-m32" CPPFLAGS="-m32" WINDRES="windres --use-temp-file -F pe-i386"

Thanks

How sad...

I did:

mingw32-make.exe -f makefile.gcc clean

and

mingw32-make.exe -f makefile.gcc BUILD=release UNICODE=1 SHARED=1 MONOLITHIC=1 USE_WEBVIEW=1 CXXFLAGS="-m32 -fno-keep-inline-dllexport" CPP="gcc -E -D_M_IX86" LDFLAGS="-m32" CPPFLAGS="-m32" WINDRES="windres --use-temp-file -F pe-i386"

And i got

gw32/bin/ld.exe: i386:x86-64 architecture of input file `gcc_mswudll\monodll_ver

Did you completely delete your build/output directory? This might just be a
leftover from the previous tries. If this error also shows up on a completely
fresh tree then I don't know.
