wxWidgets is a C++ library that lets developers create applications for Windows, Mac OS X, Linux and other platforms with a single code base. It has popular language bindings for Python, Perl, Ruby and many other languages, and unlike other cross-platform toolkits, wxWidgets gives applications a truly native look and feel because it uses the platform's native API rather than emulating the GUI. It's also extensive, free, open-source and mature.

  • It heralds cross compatibility but doesn't work on Linux and who is funding Microsoft to do this? I've tried many build options (motif gtk no-sdl, various CFLAGS) now with a very up-to-date system. All end up with horrific c+++++++++++++++++ (c++17) errors of dis-allowed ++ syntax and headers already having defined things. Jonny Cash "I've been everywhere man!", with-x11 with-motif with-gtk std=c++11 std=gnu99 version 3.0 version 2.8.4. all are broken even without -j. What gives? This lib contains ALLOT OF SOCKET PUPPETING 0 chances I'd use a "pre-compiled one". 2.8.4 converts 0xff to char (duh) but REMOVES -Wno-narrowing from only Makefile compiling that code (was not using CFLAGS there). IT TURNS OUT you must carefully select LDFLAGS CFLAGS CPPFLAGS CXXFLAGS to values you might not usually think. default shell (nothing set) also my default valued did not work: i had to craft each FLAGS to include -I -L but be simple but not empty. Finally got it compiled so added 1*. AFTER ALL THAT - wxMaxima-11.0.4 (wants 2.8.4) has errors cant find widgets for some version not really in 2.8.4.
