SYNOPSIS
WX_VERSION="X.Y" [WX_CODESET="..."] [WX_TOOLKIT="..."] inherit wxwidgets
DESCRIPTION
The wxWidgets toolkit is a cross-platform, C++ GUI toolkit which is built on top of other GUI toolkits for a native look on all platforms. Each combination of major.minor version, backend toolkit, and choice of ANSI or Unicode text codesets are parallel-installable. Packages which depend on the wxWidgets toolkit will only build against one or two versions at any given time, and may require a particular codeset or toolkit.
This cygclass selects the wx-config script for the desired version, backend tookit, and codeset of the wxWidgets toolkit.
NOTE
When cross-compiling, cross.cygclass must be inherit()ed BEFORE wxwidgets.cygclass.
WX_VERSION
[ Top ] [ wxwidgets.cygclass ] [ Variables ]
DESCRIPTION
The desired major.minor branch of the wxWidgets toolkit. This variable must be set before inherit()ing the wxwidgets.cygclass.
NOTE
Even minor version numbers represent stable branches; versions 2.6, 2.8 and 3.0 are supported.
WX_TOOLKIT
[ Top ] [ wxwidgets.cygclass ] [ Variables ]
DESCRIPTION
The desired backend toolkit version of the wxWidgets toolkit. Possible values are:
- cocoa: (until 2.8) for Mac OS X Cocoa
- dfb: for DirectFB (usually Linux embedded)
- gtk2: the 2.x default for modern X11 desktop platforms, including Cygwin
- gtk3: the 3.x default for modern X11 desktop platforms, including Cygwin
- gtk: for older X11 platforms with the deprecated 1.x version of GTK+
- mac: (until 2.8) for Mac OS X Carbon
- mgl: for SciTech MGL cross-platform graphics library (default on DJGPP)
- microwin: for Microwindows (aka Nano X)
- motif: for X11 systems using Motif/LessTif (default on older UNIXes)
- msw: for Microsoft Windows (default on MinGW)
- osx_carbon: (since 3.0) for Mac OS X Carbon interface
- osx_cocoa: (since 3.0) for Mac OS X Cocoa interface
- osx_iphone: (since 3.0) for iOS devices (iPhone/iPod Touch)
- pm: for OS/2 EMX
- x11: for X11 systems without another GUI toolkit
This variable must be set before inherit()ing the wxwidgets.cygclass. If undefined, the default on Cygwin is "gtk2" for 2.x and "gtk3" for 3.x; when cross-compiling, the default depends on CROSS_HOST as indicated above.
WX_CODESET
[ Top ] [ wxwidgets.cygclass ] [ Variables ]
DESCRIPTION
The choice of text codeset of the wxWidgets toolkit. Possible values are "ansi" and "unicode", however the "gtk" (1.x) and "motif" WX_TOOLKIT options do not support "unicode".
This variable must be set before inherit()ing the wxwidgets.cygclass. If undefined, "unicode" is the default if supported by the given WX_TOOLKIT.
WX_CONFIG
[ Top ] [ wxwidgets.cygclass ] [ Definitions ]
DESCRIPTION
Absolute path to the wx-config script for the given WX_VERSION, WX_TOOLKIT, and WX_CODESET (and CROSS_HOST if cross-compiling). This definition is exported to the build environment.
WX_CFLAGS
[ Top ] [ wxwidgets.cygclass ] [ Definitions ]
DESCRIPTION
Compile flags for the specified version/toolkit/codeset of wxWidgets. This is equivalent to `$WX_CONFIG --cflags`.
WX_LIBS
[ Top ] [ wxwidgets.cygclass ] [ Definitions ]
DESCRIPTION
Link flags for the specified version/toolkit/codeset of wxWidgets. This is equivalent to `$WX_CONFIG --libs`.
NOTE
This will contain the standard, non-"contrib" link libraries shipped with wxWidgets. If you need to link against one of the "contrib" libraries, you need to call `$WX_CONFIG --libs library1,library2,...`. In this form, WX_CONFIG will automatically add 'base', but not 'core', which almost all wxWidgets GUI applications will need. Third-party link library flags cannot be determined by WX_CONFIG and will need to be added manually.
wx-config
[ Top ] [ wxwidgets.cygclass ] [ General Functions ]
DESCRIPTION
Wrapper function for calling WX_CONFIG.
