DB, Ubuntu and wxRichTextCtrl

Hi all,

Simple test -

New Project,
New Frame
Set NewFrame as Main Frame for App,
Drop wxRichTextCtrl onto Frame
Compile and Run

I receive an error "*** mainframe.cpp(.text+0x393):undefined
reference to 'wxRichTextCtrl::wxRichTextCtrl(wxWindow*, int, wxString
const&, wxPoint const&, wxSize const&, long, wxValidator const&,
wxString const&)'"

I assume I haven't done anything stupid when building wxWidgets (I
used DB to build it, but am unsure if I needed to pass any further
parameters to the build.

I must have done something stupid, but does anyone have any idea what?

Best
Mal

Hi, Mal!

No, you haven't done anything stupid! There's a glitch with rich
text in early 2.8 re: how wx-config works. You can either upgrade to
the latest 2.8 or just include the lib in configurations in DB. If you
add it in DB, you'll have to put it _before_ %AUTO%, i.e.:

/usr/share/lib/<whatever>/librichtext<whatever>.a %AUTO%

If you put it after %AUTO%, it confuses the heck out of wx-config. It
expects to be alone on the line, so it swallows everything on the line
after it as arguments.

HTH:

thx,
Dave S.
