Configuring the wxWidget3.0.4 development environment in Ubuntu18.04

Preparatory work

Download the latest stable version of wxwidgets-3.0.4.tar.bz2 in https://www.wxwidgets.org/downloads/

Installation dependencies

sudo Install libgtk-3-dev build-essential Checkinstall

Compiling the installation

makesudo

Checkinstall will need to prepare the package description and so on, detailed input and output. Use Checkinstall to generate both the Deb package and the installation details, tips for how to remove in the future

Check the installation path

$ dpkg-l WxWidgets

This installation does not follow some Web tutorial tips to increase the/etc/ld.so.conf.d/configuration file and execute sudo ldconfig, but can I compile normally, so ldconfig this step should be unnecessary.

Compiling samples sample

Wxwidgets source code has been brought with a samples sample package, after the installation is complete, you can directly compile the test

$ cd samples/ make

After the compilation succeeds, the subdirectory inside will carry the compiled executable program, such as Popup, Tarskbar, text, Treelist, and so on.
