Trying out wxMax: Errors

BlitzMax Forums/Brucey's Modules/Trying out wxMax: Errors

GW (Posted May) [#1]

I'm late to the party trying out the wx.mod. I downloaded the mod from github and built it without error. The (10 year old) guide says I need to put some (10 year old) static libs in the lib folder under the mod, but this folder already has the libs so I didn't overwrite them. When trying any example, I just get the error "the application was unable to start correctly 0x000007b". Normally this is related to missing dll or something, but I dont know where this dll would come from. I tried this on 2 seperate computers with the same results. Any idea how I can fix this? Am I supposed to somehow bind wxmax with maxgui? Thanks Edit: just to elaborate, this is vanilla-bmax, tdm-gcc5.1 all working fine.

I noticed that when compiling an app with vanilla bmax vs NG. The compiler picking up different support libraries. One reason I think the wx mod does not work with vanilla Bmax is that it's trying to dynamically load a 64bit dll. 'COMCTL32.dll' This file exists in the system directory, but it's not being used by gcc.
