[Dev-C++] wxWindows

[Bob W. <bo...@ph...>]

I am not sure this is the place to seek this information, but I can not =
find a specific site for Bloodshed.=20

I have down loaded the wxWindows programs and source files, but I am =
getting an consistant error in compilation which I assume is either =
related to the Bloodsheed compiler which is:
  Bloodsheed Deve=3DC++ Ver 4.01

  mingw complier 2.95-1 MSVCRT + updated headers & libraries
The compiler finds all of the various include files that are either =
source or library, but during the preprocessor or precompile phase it =
produces three fatal errors. They are:
  In file included from =
F:\DEV-C++\Downloads\wxWindows\wx2\include\wx\debug.h:17,
                   from =

"Unsupported toolkit"
It appears that either the compiler is not providing the proper =
identification, is a mismatch despite of its mingw roots, or that I need =
to modify the source code to specify the proper option for each of the =
three unidentified definitions during the
  #if ( . . . )
  #endif

  #ifdef . . .=20
  #endif
option identification phases. I could flail around and eventually either =
figures it out or arrive at a serendipitous solution (more likely), but =
I am sure I am not the first to run into this problem. FYI operating =
system is stock Windows98.=20

I love learning and becoming proficient in a new language. It always =
makes you feel like a real mental midget.=20
