Any working example of compiling a DLL in wxWidgets

Question

I have found some examples of how to compile a DLL in wxWidgets but none of them compile in wxWidgets 2.8.9

Examples, such as, http://wiki.wxwidgets.org/Creating_A_DLL_Of_An_Application (here some of the download links don't even work, such as, http://www.frogmorecs.com/dl/fromdll.zip). Even the code at this forum http://wxforum.shadonet.com/viewtopic.php?p=5964#5964 does not compile.

Even the latest sample from the official wxWidgets SVN (http://svn.wxwidgets.org/viewvc/wx/wxWidgets/trunk/samples/dll/) does not compile with the latest build of wxWidgets.

someone help!

Answer 1

this is how to do it:

1. download rapidsvn
2. create a directory on your computer named "whatever"
3. start RapidSVN
4. go to Repository->Checkout...
5. enter url http://svn.wxwidgets.org/svn/wx/wxWidgets/trunk/
6. select the folder you created as destination directory
7. hit ok
8. once finished, go to the directory and see BuildSVN.txt
9. now build the samples/DLL

it should all work!
