wxPack Details wxPack Help    |
Welcome to official website for wxPack!News07/01/2011 There is a new release of wxPack that supports wxWidgets v2.8.12. This release only has MinGW GCC v4.4.1-tdm_dw2 and Microsoft Visual C++ 10.0 libraries included. Please give feedback. Download now.
01/14/2011 Well it is a new year and I think it is time for some fresh changes. I think it is time to update the Visual C++ version that wxPack is built with. So I think that Visual C++ 2005 is pretty old and I am not sure it is easy to find anymore. I am going to be adding Visual C++ 2010 support. Visual C++ 2010 has been out for a while now and it is easy to download and install. This does mean that Visual C++ 2005 support will be removed from wxPack when we are finished proving out wxPack built using Visual C++ 2010. Just thought I would give an update. Watch here for more details.

12/21/2009 I updated the custom installer for the Twilight Dragon Media MinGW v4.4.1-dw2 release. You can find that on the download page. This just makes it really easy to install. It adds the needed gettext and iconv development libraries to the installer. It doesn't set any environment variable so you can run this next to your existing MinGW install.

12/10/2009 It has always been a struggle to build wxPack and that is why it takes so long to get new releases out. To help in that area I took about a month and automated to process using a continuous integration server. So now I have a simple 3 step process to building all of wxPack. Expect releases to be much faster and keep in line with the official release of wxWidgets.
02/12/2007 Added a Frequently Asked Question section to the website. There are a few good questions in there and it will grow as time goes on.
09/19/2006 There are new tutorials added to help people setup and use wxPack. Look at the Tutorials page.
08/04/2006 wxPack has been submitted to Digg! Thanks for getting the message out there. I have put an easy way for all users to show their support, just click the "digg it" button on the left sidebar. Have fun and keep coding.
AboutA complete wxWidgets Development Kit. Includes: wxWidgets source/binaries, Visual Studio 7.0+ Project Wizard and Integrated Help, wxFormBuilder (RAD Tool), and various contributed widgets. wxPack is a full wxWidgets development kit. It comes with wxWidgets source and binaries pre-built with selected compilers (VC8.0 and gcc) so the developer doesn't need to build it. Building wxWidgets is a long and sometimes difficult task and wxPack takes all the work out of using wxWidgets. It has Visual Studio Integration which comes with a "New Project Wizard" and integrated help. This makes the time needed to develop an application only take as long as writing the code for the application. It also comes with an open-source RAD tool called wxFormBuilder (http://wxformbuilder.org). This cuts the time needed to actually develop the user interface down to a bare minimum. Plus there are also other select contributed widgets included as source and binaries that can be used in a developers application. |
