 I ran the following command: 

F:\wxLua\build\msw>mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc BUILD=release UNICODE=1 WX_SHARED=1 SHARED=1


And I got this error:

  I've tried some other configurations, it turned out that there allways be a error when linking the first DLL. Any idea how this happen?

wxLua should be using the same settings for MingW as wxWidgets does. I
do not use MingW itself, but if you post the linker error message we
might be able to help. At least state what wxLua lib or program gets
the linker error.

 Hi, everyone. I want to make a editor that make use of wxlua. But I want to use the DLLs generated by MingW so that I can sharing the WxWidgets DLLs with WxLua. Thus I can make the installer much smaller.I feel very easy to use MingW 3.4.5 to compile the WxWidgets 2.8.7, And I have made some demo programs run sucessfully. But I have trouble in compiling WxLua using MingW. I always get an error says "WinMain@16....... not found in mingw10.lib". No matter whether I using the SYSTEM-WIDE lua. I've also tried variety of configurations that get the same error. Please point me a way out. Or I wish the developer team can provide an MingW-build version. I'm using Windows XP.

The point is lua sources install liblua.a so wxLua should link against  
-llua, I think the naming is just a facility for the distros to make  
newer (5.1) and older (5.0) lua versions coexist but wxLua shouldn't  
rely on arbitrary behaviour.

Sure I did (just symlinked the library) but I felt it should somehow  
be fixed back to the source.

I see on my system pkg-config has lua support so maybe the configure  
script could switch to pkg-config.

What system are you using? We discussed this a while back and found
that different distributions call it whatever they want. I'm not on
linux right now, but I think that you might be able to override this.

Hello,
seems that configure script from wxLua-2.8.7.0-src.tar.gz check the  
system lua installation using -llua5.1 but the standard name for  
liblua is liblua.a, using -llua5.1 would give a fail even on a system  
with lua 5.1 installed properly, this should be fixed.

That's great! I'm doing a lot of traveling for work, but I'll try to
give it a shot when I get some free time. I've thought about doing
something like that for a long time, but never got around to it.

Thanks!

Hi,

I was looking for some GUI builder for wxLua and I found wxGlade, but it lacks
GUI code generation for Lua. And I looked into the source code of wxGlade
and found that it looks not so difficult to add this functionality.

So, here is a preview patch for wxGlade-0.6.3 and some description.

http://hammm.dw.land.to/lua/wxglade_lua.html

Features :
 - it can generate GUI code that can work on wxLua
 - most of the widgets on the palette are working
 - adding handlers will work
 - you can modify logics of generated code, while let wxGlade update the GUI
part.

Plus,
 - empty sizer slots will not harm generated GUI layout. (for python and
lua code generation)
 - fix some issues about initial size of widgets. 

Some sortcomings :
 - the generated code will always leave one wxlua process, if not manually
exit by ExitMainLoop.
   Currently I don't know why, but any suggestions are welcome.

I hope that this functionality will be merged to wxGlade source tree,
though it'll need some more effort.


It's rather easy to try it out, because no compiling is needed to 
run patched wxGlade (It's in python). So please give it a try, if you have
some interest.

Any comments are welcome.


Thanks,
Makoto Hamanaka <ha...@gm...>

You can use these scripts in Linux or Cygwin. They are not very well
polished, but they mostly work.

http://wxlua.sourceforge.net/download/
http://wxlua.sourceforge.net/download/get_tags
http://wxlua.sourceforge.net/download/parse_ctags.lua

The "get_tags" file is just a script to run ctags with a few settings
that are useful, adjust the path to point to your includes. Then run
"lua parse_ctags.lua" after editing the variable "ctagsFilename" and
"basePath" at the top of it.

Thanks, probably not, because the scripts above are not well tested.

I haven't used drag & drop in a while, does this help? Are there
missing bits in wxLua that need to be added?

Hi John,

I am reaching the point that i want to make more and more bindings.
And so i wonder how you made the *.i files. Do you have a script to 
extract them more or less are is it all handwork?

Nice docs by the way!
I hope i did not miss the answer to my question while reading it roughly :-)

I have urgent need of wxFileDropTarget support under win32 in wxlua,
if someone can give some hints about which are blocking points, i will
try to help in implementing the remaining parts.
