Codelite

Setup Codelite IDE

@@Home -> DevelopmentEnvironment -> Codelite

Install Codelite

• Download installation distributive for Windows
• Run it, I would suggest to use directory like K:\tools for this, not Program Files
• Installation will setup Codelite, MinGW (open source compiler/linker etc), UnitTest

Install wxWidgets (under Windows XP)

• download wxMSW-2.8.10.zip from http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/wxwindows/wxMSW-2.8.10.zip (see link at http://www.wxwidgets.org/downloads/ under Source Archives -> wxMSW - installer for Windows, with manual (other formats: zip))
• unzip it to (e.g.) K:\tools (zip contains single folder `wxMSW-2.8.10`) - so finally you have `K:\tools\wxMSW-2.8.10 and build,lib,src,...` as a next layer
• build - static versions for debug and release:
  • go to `K:\tools\wxMSW-2.8.10\build\msw\`
  • create build.bat there:

@ECHO OFF
set PATH=K:\tools\MinGW-4.4.0\bin;K:\tools\MinGW-4.4.0\lib
mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc UNICODE=0 SHARED=0 MONOLITHIC=1 BUILD=debug
mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc UNICODE=0 SHARED=0 MONOLITHIC=1 BUILD=release
mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc UNICODE=1 SHARED=0 MONOLITHIC=1 BUILD=debug
mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc UNICODE=1 SHARED=0 MONOLITHIC=1 BUILD=release

• • execute build.bat - it will create:

K:\tools\wxMSW-2.8.10\lib\gcc_lib\libwxmsw28.a
K:\tools\wxMSW-2.8.10\lib\gcc_lib\libwxmsw28d.a
K:\tools\wxMSW-2.8.10\lib\gcc_lib\libwxmsw28u.a
K:\tools\wxMSW-2.8.10\lib\gcc_lib\libwxmsw28ud.a
K:\tools\wxMSW-2.8.10\lib\gcc_lib\mswu\
K:\tools\wxMSW-2.8.10\lib\gcc_lib\mswud\
K:\tools\wxMSW-2.8.10\lib\gcc_lib\msw\
K:\tools\wxMSW-2.8.10\lib\gcc_lib\mswd\

(can be deleted after build to free 500Mb on disk)
K:\tools\wxMSW-2.8.10\build\msw\gcc_msw\
K:\tools\wxMSW-2.8.10\build\msw\gcc_mswd\
K:\tools\wxMSW-2.8.10\build\msw\gcc_mswu\
K:\tools\wxMSW-2.8.10\build\msw\gcc_mswud\

• manually copy `K:\tools\wxMSW-2.8.10\include\wx\msw\setup.h` to `K:\tools\wxMSW-2.8.10\include\wx\setup.h`
• in Codelite open Settings -> Environment Variables and add WXWIN with value `K:\tools\wxMSW-2.8.10`

Configuring wxWidgets-based project (e.g. Htmview)

• Global Settings:

Compiler/Additional Search Path=.;K:/tools/wxMSW-2.8.10/include
Linker/Options=-static

• Debug Settings:

Compiler/Compiler Options=-g;$(shell wx-config --wxcfg=gcc_lib/mswud --cxxflags --static=yes --unicode=no --debug=yes)
Compiler/Preprocessor=__WX__
Linker/Options=$(shell wx-config --wxcfg=gcc_lib/mswud --static=yes --debug=yes --libs --unicode=no)

• Release Settings:

Compiler/Compiler Options=-g;$(shell wx-config --wxcfg=gcc_lib/mswu --cxxflags --static=yes --unicode=no --debug=no)
Compiler/Preprocessor=__WX__
Linker/Options=$(shell wx-config --wxcfg=gcc_lib/mswu --static=yes --debug=no --libs --unicode=no)
