Get the latest stable (2.4.2) wxWindows source release from=20
www.wxwidgets.org (you DON'T need imagelib).

Edit ".../wxWindows-2.4.2/include/msw/setup.h" and adjust it to your=20
needs (it's a LONG list, but read it through). You'll probably need=20
OpenGL for example, which is NOT enabled by default, so enable it if you=20
want.

Open a command prompt (cmd or command).

Go to ".../wxWindows-2.4.2/src/msw" directory.

Type "make -f makefile.g95 FINAL=3D1" to build as static library.
Type "make -f makefile.g95 FINAL=3D1 WXMAKINGDLL=3D1" to build as dynamic=
=20
library (DLL).
Both are possible, they do not conflict.

You'll get the libs at ".../wxWindows-2.4.2/lib".

Adjust your Dev-Cpp project to use correct settings (includes, libs, etc.=
).

Include dirs:
.../wxWindows-2.4.2/include
.../wxWindows-2.4.2/lib/mswdll
.../wxWindows-2.4.2/contrib/include

Lib dirs:
.../wxWindows-2.4.2/lib

Libraries:
-lwxmsw242 -lrpcrt4 -loleaut32 -lole32 -luuid -lwinspool -lwinmm=20
-lshell32 -lcomctl32 -lctl3d32 -ladvapi32 -lwsock32

C++ Compiler flags:
-D_WIN32_IE=3D0x400 -D__WXMSW__ -D__GNUWIN32__ -DHAVE_W32API_H -DWXUSINGD=
LL

Of course, don't add -DWXUSINGDLL if you wish to use the static lib.
