Tutorial on using wxWidgets on Linux with VisualGDB

[BST]

I was hoping to build and debug a wxWidgets GUI application on Linux (Ubuntu 22.04.4) using VisualGDB and GCC using the option to build over the network from a Windows computer.

I have build the wxWidgets library according to the tutorial https://docs.wxwidgets.org/latest/overview_install.html and can locally on the Linux computer compile and run the included examples.

I am creating a new project using the “Linux Project Wizard” where I select new Application using MSBuild and Ninja, and the GCC toolchain on the remote computer.

VisualGDB correctly finds the wxWidgets header files on the remote computer but other than that I am seeing a lot of errors and are unable to build the application.

Any help pointing me in the right direction of fixing this problem would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

Sorry, we do not have a tutorial on VxWidgets. Our best advice would be to get the project working outside VisualGDB first using the same target and toolchain. Then importing it into VisualGDB should be fairly straight-forward.
