When you install wxGTK-2.6.1, and then try to build samples, you will receive error complaining about directory "../../build msw/makefile". This directory is for the MS Visual Studio. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Unmask the wxGTK-2.6.1 packet. 2. Run "emerge =wxGTK-2.6.1" 3. Go to /usr/share/doc/wxGTK-2.6.1/sample and issue the command "make -f Makefile.in" or "make -f makefile.gcc" Actual Results: The samples will not be compiled. Expected Results: Samples should be compiled.
Some of the samples are only for Windows, so you'll have to build the ones that work for your platform individually.
wxGTK is platform-independent package, so no matter where, samples should be compiled fine. They might not run, but at the very least compiled. However, no one samples is to be compiled!!
wxGTK is not platform-independent. It doesn't compile on Windows. The Windows version of wxWidgets doesn't use GTK at all. See www.wxwidgets.org for details. If you have a problem with the samples not compiling please take it up with wxWidgets or provide a patch to ignore the Windows and Visual Studio source.
