Application using wxWidgets

[Nick Chang]

Hey all,

I have been using Dev-cpp for some months now, and liked it. However, recently, I came to know of the wxWidgets framework, and today, tried out compiling the code in Dev-cpp.

Now the thing is, I want it to just compile a single cpp file to form an application, and I DON'T want a visual interface. I DON'T want multiple settings that have to be read up on to use. All I want it to do is to compile a cpp file that I have written completely.

Now I have the (?) latest version [7.0 rc3], and I tried to compile a simple skeleton application:
[code]#include <wx/wx.h>

class BasicApp : wxApp
{
public:
BasicApp();
virtual bool OnInit();
private:
wxFrame* frame;
};

DECLARE_APP(BasicApp)
IMPLEMENT_APP(BasicApp)

BasicApp::BasicApp()
{
frame = new wxFrame(NULL, -1, "Hey There!");
}

bool BasicApp::OnInit()
{
frame->Show(true);
return true;
}[/code]

I got the following errors:
[code]
hello.cpp: In function wxAppConsole* wxCreateApp()': hello.cpp:13: error:wxAppConsole' is an inaccessible base of `BasicApp'

hello.cpp: In function `BasicApp& wxGetApp()':

hello.cpp:13: error: wxAppConsole' is an inaccessible base ofBasicApp'

mingw32-make.exe: *** [Objects/MingW/hello.o] Error 1[/code]

Can anyone offer some advice?

PS. I used 'Emty wxWidgets Project' for the project.
