Add references to Visual c++ 2012

I tried to add references to wxwidgets. From their website I've got 16 .dll files as a realese of the project.

I paste it everywhere in solution folder and "Add Reference" in project properties have empty list anyway. I read tons of tutorials, watched like all totorial movies I found, but I just cant add it to my project. Im new in C++, as long as I was programming in C# all i need to do there was: click on reference->add and thats it.

Solution

  • It may come as a surprise, but C++ is different from C#. You don't use references in it at all. See the last section of docs/msw/install.txt for what you need to do to build C++ projects using wxWidgets.
