<span style="font-size:smaller">Directions for compilers: MinGW and MSVC are planned</span>

== Using any Binary ==
Step needed for any wxWidgets Binary.

Download the needed header files from [http://sourceforge.net/projects/wxwindows/files/ wxWidgets SF files page]

Redirect link to header files needed for wxWidgets version 3.0.2

== Using TDM GCC Binary ==
Directions to use Code::Blocks wizard with TDM GCC Binary.

Download the needed binary files from [https://www.wxwidgets.org/downloads/ wxWidgets Download page]

Redirect link to binary files needed for TDM MinGW GCC 4.7.1 wxWidgets version 3.0.2

== Using MSVC Binary ==
Directions to use Code::Blocks wizard with MSVC Binary.

Download the needed binary files from [https://www.wxwidgets.org/downloads/ wxWidgets Download page]

Redirect link to the first set of binary files needed for MSVC 2010 (10.0) wxWidgets version 3.0.2

Redirect link to the second set of binary files needed for MSVC 2010 (10.0) wxWidgets version 3.0.2

== Extract files ==
I extracted the files under this folder "C:\test\wx\" ;
I did NOT use spaces because it can cause problems sometimes.

== Setting up Code::Blocks Global Variable ==

=== For GCC TDM 4.7.1 ===
 base:    C:\test\wx\wxWidgets-3.0.2_headers
 include: C:\test\wx\wxWidgets-3.0.2_headers\include
 lib:     C:\test\wx\wxMSW-3.0.2_gcc471TDM_Dev\lib

=== For MSVC 10.0 ===
 base:    C:\test\wx\wxWidgets-3.0.2_headers
 include: C:\test\wx\wxWidgets-3.0.2_headers\include
 lib:     C:\test\wx\wxMSW-3.0.2_vc100_Dev\lib
 bin:     C:\test\wx\wxMSW-3.0.2_vc100_ReleaseDLL\lib\vc100_dll

== Running the CB Wizard ==
I used the global variable of wx30; you can use any global variable name. But, wx30 or wx is the two common names.
 NOTE: Remember to check "Use wxWidgets DLL" 
 NOTE: Remember to uncheck the Monolithic build option; wxWidgets Binary are Multilibs.
       (Leave wxWidgets is built as a Monolithic Library" unchecked)
 NOTE: Remember to check "Enable Unicode"

Click yes on the two warning below 
 ---------------------------
 Warning
 ---------------------------
 A matching Debug configuration cannot be found in the wxWidgets directory you specified.
 This means that Debug target of your project will not build.

 ---------------------------
 Warning
 ---------------------------
 A matching Release configuration cannot be found in the wxWidgets directory you specified.
 This means that Release target of your project will not build.

== Editing the CB Project ==

=== For GCC TDM 4.7.1 ===
 a. Add custom variable to each target of WX_COMPILER=gcc
 b. Add custom variable to each target of WX_COMPILER_VERSION=471TDM
 c. Add custom variable to release target of WX_SUFFIX=u
 d. Add custom variable to debug target of WX_SUFFIX=ud

=== For MSVC 10.0 ===
 a. Add custom variable to each target of WX_COMPILER=vc
 b. Add custom variable to each target of WX_COMPILER_VERSION=100
 c. Add custom variable to release target of WX_SUFFIX=u
 d. Add custom variable to debug target of WX_SUFFIX=ud
 e. Add $(#wx30.bin) to
    i.  Debug target level: Linker search Diretory
    ii. Release target level: Linker search Diretory

=== For all binary projects ===
 a. Change "$(#wx30)\include" to "$(#wx30.include)"
    i.  Project level: Compiler Search Directory
    ii. Project level: Resource Compiler Search Directory

 b. Change "$(#wx30)\lib\vc_dll" or "$(#wx30)\lib\gcc_dll"
    to "$(#wx30.lib)\$(WX_COMPILER)$(WX_COMPILER_VERSION)_dll"
    i.  Debug target level: Linker search Diretory
    ii. Release target level: Linker search Diretory

 c. Change "$(#wx30)\lib\vc_dll\mswu" or "$(#wx30)\lib\gcc_dll\mswu"
    to "$(#wx30.lib)\$(WX_COMPILER)$(WX_COMPILER_VERSION)_dll\msw$(WX_SUFFIX)"
    i.  Debug target level: Resource and Compiler Search Directory
    ii. Release target level: Resource and Compiler Search Directory

 d. Change "$(#wx30)\lib\vc_dll\mswud" or "$(#wx30)\lib\gcc_dll\mswud"
    to "$(#wx30.lib)\$(WX_COMPILER)$(WX_COMPILER_VERSION)_dll\msw$(WX_SUFFIX)"
    i.  Debug target level: Resource and Compiler Search Directory
    ii. Release target level: Resource and Compiler Search Directory
