I would like to use the wxWidgets library with the wonderful Orwell Dev C++. I have tried to compile wxWidgets with TDM-GCC x64 4.7.1 which installs with Dev C++ 5.4.1. After trying to manually configure the wxWidgets MS Windows makefile I am still getting a variety of errors.
Has anyone succeeded in compiling the library?
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Yeah, I managed to get wxWidgets 2.9.5 compiled with TDM-GCC x64 4.7.1 , and x86 4.7.2 . I did use configure then make, instead-of using the supplied Windows makefile.
I wrote-up a procedure for it, complete with a couple patched files that are needed.
The demos, utils, and most of the samples got built and seem to work. (The game "demos\bombs" is pretty fun).
It's available from the "WebUpdate" feature of Dev-C++, or the homepage here: DevPak 64-bit DevPak 32-bit
P.S. I used the latest MSYS here, (with some huge, unnecessary stuff removed).

Since http://devpaks.org/category.php?category=wxWidgets is outdated according to http://wxwidgets.org/news/2013/11/wxwidgets-3-0-0-released/
Is it possible for beginners to use?
http://sourceforge.net/projects/codelite/files/Releases/codelite-5.3/wxwidgets-3.0-tdm-gcc-481-32-devel.exe/download
http://downloads.codelite.org/
To help beginners, could Orwell Dev-C++ provide wxWidgets 3.x binary downloads such others IDEs do?
It would be amazing to have the downloads:
The setup which includes MinGW32 4.8.1 and wxWidgets 3.0 can be downloaded here (63MB + 50MB = 113MB).
http://sourceforge.net/projects/orwelldevcpp/files/Setup%20Releases/Dev-Cpp%205.6.1%20MinGW%204.8.1%20-wxwidgets-3.0-Setup.exe/download
The setup which includes TDM-GCC x64 4.8.1 and wxWidgets 3.0 can be downloaded here (47MB + 50MB = 97MB).

Thanks.
