Step-by-step instructions for installing Cygwin64, wxWidgets 3.0, minGW-W64, and CMake on Windows 10 for the purpose of building and running the Hello World! demo application.

How to Build wxWidgets 3.0 Hello World! on Windows 10 with Cygwin64, minGW-W64, and CMake

Install Cygwin64, minGW-W64, and CMake

  1. Visit https://cygwin.com/ and download the GUI installer setup-x86_64.exe
  2. The installer will want to know where to put the files. C:\cygwin64 is the best choice; all lower-case and no spaces.
  3. It will also ask where to put the package files or installation source. I like to keep mine in my Downloads folder C:\Users\Patrick\Downloads\Cygwin-Packages
  4. Next it will ask how to reach the Internet.
  5. After that it will ask you to choose a mirror. I like mirros.kernal.org. You should pick something you're familiar with.
  6. If the above went well you will see the package manager. Here you will select the packages to install. At a minimum you'll need:
  • gcc-core

Clion 2017.2, CMake 3.9.2 and Boost 1.65.1 on Mac OS X Sierra 10.12.6
If your project uses a Boost library that is not header-only such as
#include "boost/filesystem.hpp"
And, you're getting link errors such as:
Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:
...
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
