[Dev-C++] Question using XP with Dev-C++ and WxWindows

I am getting some compile errors when compiling the first
"TextEditorApp" example from the mini-tutorial.

Basically, it is telling me that I need to define string not case
specific for my compiler/OS, and that I also am including an unsupported
toolkit (fonts.h).

Has anyone had experience with this? I did post to the forum...but I am
unsure if the question was received or not...

Do I simply need to take my old hardware, attach a hard-drive, and
re-install windows 95 onto it to get this to work?

Not, you shall define some variable, I don't remember well what, I think =
it
was __GNUWIN__ (two underscores each, total 4), just open the header file
which generates this warning and see what is defined before it. The probl=
em
seems to be that for compile with mingw wxwindows expects that flag
(__GNUWIN__) to be defined, but mingw defines some other, like __GNUC__ o=
r
__MINGW__ or whatecer (I don't know what is the flag defined by mingw), s=
o
when it has to make the code written for GCC/mingw it pass over it becaus=
e
the flag is not what it expects.

P.S.- Did you not receive my reply?

Maybe he means does he need windows95 to get dev to work.

Well..basically...I am figuring that some environment variable in
Windows XP is not set that needs to be...but that since this has
all been tested with Windows 95/98, installing a copy might help
me get back on schedule (I am working to a deadline, and can't
seem to get DevC++ to compile the first example in the WxWindows
small tutorial, due to an 'unsupported toolkit error with font.h'
and for 'case-insensitive string compare' not being defined for
my OS/compiler.

I am thinking that both of these issues stem from my use of
Windows XP rather than from a fault in the WxWindows library or
the mingw compiler.

Yup... I have a deadline to try to deliver what should be an easy
application, other than the fact that I can't get the compiler
part to work..

No problem with XP here.

I'm using Windows XP with wxWindows 2.3.2 and 2.3.3.

Currently I use Dev-C++ 4.9.6.3 with an older MinGW (gcc 2.95.3-6), but as
soon as I get the time, I will rebuild with MinGW 2.0.0-3 to get gcc 3.2.

I didn't use a Dev-C++ package for wxWindow. I just grabbed the
wxWindows source from sourceforge and built it.

It works like a charm.
