Welcome to wxWidgets, a sophisticated cross-platform C++
framework for writing advanced GUI applications using
native controls where possible.
In addition to common and advanced GUI facilities such as
frames, scrolling windows, toolbars, tree controls, icons,
device contexts, printing, splitter windows and so on, there are
wrappers for common file operations, and facilities for writing
TCP/IP applications, thread handling, and more. Where certain
features are not available on a platform, such as MDI and tree
controls on Unix, they are emulated.
A detailed 2000-page reference manual is supplied in HTML, PDF
and Windows Help form: see the docs hierarchy.
For a quick start, point your Web browser at docs/html/index.htm
for a list of important documents and samples.
Please see changes.txt and "Changes since 2.4" in the manual
for details.
wxWidgets currently supports the following platforms:
Most popular C++ compilers are supported; see the install.txt
file for each platform (available via docs/html/index.htm) for details.
See also http://www.wxwidgets.org/platform.htm.
Note that 2.6 series were the last to fully support GTK+ 1.2, and Mac OS
9/Mac OS 10.2 and below. wxWidgets 2.7 and above focuses on GTK+ 2 and Mac OS
10.3 and above and compatibility with earlier systems is not guaranteed any
more.
The distribution is available in archive formats appropriate to the
target system. See the download pages for details.
wxWidgets needs to be compiled before you can test out the samples
or write your own applications. For installation information, please
see the install.txt file in the individual directories:
docs/msw
docs/gtk
docs/motif
docs/mac
docs/cocoa
docs/x11
docs/mgl
docs/os2
docs/palmos
For licensing information, please see the files:
docs/preamble.txt
docs/licence.txt
docs/licendoc.txt
docs/gpl.txt
docs/lgpl.txt
Although this may seem complex, it is there to allow authors of
proprietary/commercial applications to use wxWidgets in addition
to those writing GPL'ed applications. In summary, the licence is
LGPL plus a clause allowing unrestricted distribution of
application binaries. To answer a FAQ, you don't have to
distribute any source if you wish to write commercial
applications using wxWidgets.
However, if you distribute wxGTK or wxMotif (with Lesstif)
version of your application, don't forget that it is linked
against GTK+ (or Lesstif) which is covered by LGPL without
exception notice. Under Linux systems your app is probably linked
against LGPL glibc as well. Please read carefully LGPL, section
6. which describes conditions for distribution of closed source
applications linked against LGPL library. Basically you should
link dynamically and include source code of LGPL libraries with
your product (unless it is already present in user's system -
like glibc usually is). If compiled with --enable-odbc (Unix
only), wxWidgets library will contain iODBC library which is
covered by LGPL.
If you use TIFF image handler, please see src/tiff/COPYRIGHT
for libtiff licence details.
If you use JPEG image handler, documentation for your program
should contain following sentence: "This software is based in
part on the work of the Independent JPEG Group". See
src/jpeg/README for details.
If you use wxRegEx class on a system without native regular
expressions support (i.e. MS Windows), see src/regex/COPYRIGHT
file for Henry Spencer's regular expression library copyright.
If you use wxXML classes or XRC, see src/expat/COPYING for licence details.
See docs/html/index.htm for an HTML index of the major documents.
See docs/changes.txt for a summary of changes to wxWidgets.
See docs/tech for an archive of technical notes.

The Windows HTML Help files are located in docs/htmlhelp.
The Windows Help files are located in docs/winhelp.
The PDF help files are located in docs/pdf.
The HTB (wxWidgets HTML Help) files are located in docs/htb.

The main wxWidgets ftp site is at:
A wxWidgets CD-ROM with the latest distribution plus an HTML
front-end and hundreds of MB of compilers, utilities and other
material may be ordered from the CD-ROM page: see the wxWidgets

Welcome to wxWidgets, a sophisticated cross-platform C++
framework for writing advanced GUI applications using (where
possible) the native controls.
In addition to common and advanced GUI facilities such as
frames, scrolling windows, toolbars, tree controls, icons,
device contexts, printing, splitter windows and so on, there are
wrappers for common file operations, and facilities for writing
TCP/IP applications, thread handling, and more. Where certain
features are not available on a platform, such as MDI and tree
controls on Unix, they are emulated.
A detailed 1800-page reference manual is supplied in HTML, PDF
and Windows Help form: see the docs hierarchy.
For a quick start, point your Web browser at docs/html/index.htm
for a list of important documents and samples.
Please see changes.txt for details.
wxWidgets currently supports the following platforms:
Most popular C++ compilers are supported; see the install.txt
file for each platform (available via docs/html/index.htm) for details.
See also http://www.wxwidgets.org/platform.htm.
The distribution is available in archive formats appropriate to the
target system. See the download pages for details.
wxWidgets needs to be compiled before you can test out the samples
or write your own applications. For installation information, please
see the install.txt file in the individual directories:
docs/msw
docs/gtk
docs/motif
docs/mac
docs/cocoa
docs/x11
docs/mgl
docs/os2
For licensing information, please see the files:
docs/preamble.txt
docs/licence.txt
docs/licendoc.txt
docs/gpl.txt
docs/lgpl.txt
Although this may seem complex, it is there to allow authors of
proprietary/commercial applications to use wxWidgets in
addition to those writing GPL'ed applications. In summary,
the licence is LGPL plus a clause allowing unrestricted
distribution of application binaries. To answer a FAQ, you
don't have to distribute any source if you wish to write
commercial applications using wxWidgets.
However, if you distribute wxGTK or wxMotif (with Lesstif) version
of your application, don't forget that it is linked against
GTK+ (or Lesstif) which is covered by LGPL without exception
notice. Under Linux systems your app is probably linked
against LGPL glibc as well. Please read carefully LGPL, section 6.
which describes conditions for distribution of closed source applications
linked against LGPL library. Basically you should link dynamically and
include source code of LGPL libraries with your product (unless it is
already present in user's system - like glibc usually is).
If compiled with --enable-odbc (Unix only), wxWidgets library will
contain iODBC library which is covered by LGPL.
If you use TIFF image handler, please see src/tiff/COPYRIGHT
for libtiff licence details.
If you use JPEG image handler, documentation for your program should
contain following sentence: "This software is based in part on the work of
the Independent JPEG Group". See src/jpeg/README for details.
If you use wxRegEx class on a system without native regular expressions
support (i.e. MS Windows), see src/regex/COPYRIGHT file for Henry Spencer's
regular expression library copyright.
If you use wxXML classes or XRC, see src/expat/COPYING for licence details.
See docs/html/index.htm for an HTML index of the major documents.
See docs/changes.txt for a summary of changes to wxWidgets.
See docs/tech for an archive of technical notes.
The wxWidgets bug database can be browsed at:
http://sourceforge.net/bugs/?group_id=9863
The Windows help files are located in docs/winhelp.
The PDF help files are located in docs/pdf.
The wxWidgets Web site is located at:
The main wxWidgets ftp site is at:
A wxWidgets CD-ROM with the latest distribution plus an HTML
front-end and hundreds of MB of compilers, utilities and other
material may be ordered from the CD-ROM page: see the wxWidgets
web site.
Have fun!

Welcome to wxWindows, a sophisticated cross-platform C++
framework for writing advanced GUI applications using (where
possible) the native controls.
In addition to common and advanced GUI facilities such as
frames, scrolling windows, toolbars, tree controls, icons,
device contexts, printing, splitter windows and so on, there are
wrappers for common file operations, and facilities for writing
TCP/IP applications, thread handling, and more. Where certain
features are not available on a platform, such as MDI and tree
controls on Unix, they are emulated.
A detailed 1800-page reference manual is supplied in HTML, PDF
and Windows Help form: see the docs hierarchy.
For a quick start, point your Web browser at docs/html/index.htm
for a list of important documents and samples.
Please see changes.txt for details.
wxWindows currently supports the following platforms:
Most popular C++ compilers are supported; see the install.txt
file for each platform (available via docs/html/index.htm) for details.
See also http://www.wxwindows.org/platform.htm.
The distribution is available in archive formats appropriate to the
target system. Documentation is available mainly in zip format.
In the following, x.y.z represents the current version number.
wxGTK-x.y.z.tar.gz wxGTK source distribution. You will
need the HTML, HTB and/or PDF documentation
(see below)
wxGTK-demos-x.y.z.tar.gz wxGTK demos source
wxGTK-samples-x.y.z.tar.gz wxGTK samples source
wxGTK-x.y.z-0.src.rpm wxGTK Linux source as an RPM, without manuals
wxGTK-x.y.z-0.i386.rpm wxGTK Linux binaries as an RPM, without manuals
wxGTK-devel-x.y.z-0.i386.rpm wxGTK Linux minimum development system as an RPM
wxGTK-gl-x.y.z-0.i386.rpm Add-on OpenGL binary as an RPM
wxX11-x.y.z.tar.gz wxX11 and wxMotif source distribution, without
documentation.
setup.exe, setup-*.bin Setup files in floppy-disk-sized chunks
wxMSW-x.y.z-setup.zip Zip archive containing the
setup files
wxMSW-x.y.z.zip Zip archive containing all the files that are
in the setup distribution
As well as the core source, the wxMSW distribution contains:
wxMac-x.y.z.zip Zip archive containing all
source files (excludes documentation)
wxMac-x.y.z.tar.gz Gzipped tar archive containing all
source files (excludes documentation).
You might prefer this format if building on
MacOS X, since it preserves file permissions.
wxOS2-x.y.z.zip Zip archive containing all source files
(excludes documentation)
wxWindows-x.y.z-WinHelp.zip WinHelp documentation
wxWindows-x.y.z-PDF.zip Acrobat PDF documentation
wxWindows-x.y.z-HTML.zip HTML documentation
wxWindows-x.y.z-HTMLHelp.zip Windows HTML Help documentation
wxWindows-x.y.z-HTB.zip wxHTML documentation (for
use with the helpview utility)
wxWindows 2 needs to be compiled before you can test out
the samples or write your own applications.
For installation information, please see the install.txt file
in the individual directories:
docs/msw
docs/gtk
docs/motif
docs/mac
docs/x11
docs/mgl
docs/os2
For licensing information, please see the files:
docs/preamble.txt
docs/licence.txt
docs/licendoc.txt
docs/gpl.txt
docs/lgpl.txt
Although this may seem complex, it is there to allow authors of
proprietary/commercial applications to use wxWindows in
addition to those writing GPL'ed applications. In summary,
the licence is LGPL plus a clause allowing unrestricted
distribution of application binaries. To answer a FAQ, you
don't have to distribute any source if you wish to write
commercial applications using wxWindows.
However, if you distribute wxGTK or wxMotif (with Lesstif) version
of your application, don't forget that it is linked against
GTK+ (or Lesstif) which is covered by LGPL without exception
notice. Under Linux systems your app is probably linked
against LGPL glibc as well. Please read carefully LGPL, section 6.
which describes conditions for distribution of closed source applications
linked against LGPL library. Basically you should link dynamically and
include source code of LGPL libraries with your product (unless it is
already present in user's system - like glibc usually is).
If compiled with --enable-odbc (Unix only), wxWindows library will
contain iODBC library which is covered by LGPL.
If you use TIFF image handler, please see src/tiff/COPYRIGHT
for libtiff license details.
If you use JPEG image handler, documentation for your program should
contain following sentence: "This software is based in part on the work of
the Independent JPEG Group". See src/jpeg/README for details.
If you use wxRegEx class on a system without native regular expressions
support (i.e. MS Windows), see src/regex/COPYRIGHT file for Henry Spencer's
regular expression library copyright.
See docs/html/index.htm for an HTML index of the major documents.

Welcome to wxWindows 2, a sophisticated cross-platform C++
framework for writing advanced GUI applications using (where
possible) the native controls.
In addition to common and advanced GUI facilities such as
frames, scrolling windows, toolbars, tree controls, icons,
device contexts, printing, splitter windows and so on, there are
wrappers for common file operations, and facilities for writing
TCP/IP applications, thread handling, and more. Where certain
features are not available on a platform, such as MDI and tree
controls on Unix, they are emulated.
A detailed 1400-page reference manual is supplied in HTML, PDF
and Windows Help form: see the docs hierarchy.
For a quick start, point your Web browser at docs/html/index.htm
for a list of important documents and samples.
Please see changes.txt for details.
wxWindows 2 currently supports the following platforms:
Most popular C++ compilers are supported; see the install.txt
file for each platform (available via docs/html/index.htm) for details.
See also http://www.wxwindows.org/platform.htm.
The distribution is available in archive formats appropriate to the
target system. Documentation is available mainly in zip format.
Some add-on libraries (such as the Object Graphics Library) are
available in zip form only. In the following, x.y.z represents
the current version number.
wxGTK-x.y.z.tgz wxGTK source distribution. You will
need the HTML, HTB and/or PDF documentation
(see below)
wxGTK-demos-x.y.z.tgz wxGTK demos source
wxGTK-samples-x.y.z.tgz wxGTK samples source
wxGTK-x.y.z-0.src.rpm wxGTK Linux source as an RPM, without manuals
wxGTK-x.y.z-0.i386.rpm wxGTK Linux binaries as an RPM, without manuals
wxGTK-devel-x.y.z-0.i386.rpm wxGTK Linux minimum development system as an RPM
wxMotif-x.y.z.tgz wxMotif source distribution. Contains
TIFF, JPEG, Tex2RTF source plus HTML
documentation.

in floppy-disk-sized chunks
wxMSW-x.y.z-setup.zip Zip archive containing the
setup files
wxMSW-x.y.z.zip Zip archive containing all the
files that are in the setup
distribution

database class documentation only)
wxWindows-x.y.z-DocSource.zip Documentation source code (not required)
wxWindows-x.y.z-cw.zip Metrowerks CodeWarrior 4.1 project files
wxWindows-x.y.z-wat.zip Watcom C++ project files
wxWindows-x.y.z-vc.zip Visual C++ project files (in wxMSW distr.)
wxWindows-x.y.z-bc.zip Borland C++ project files (in wxMSW distr.)
jpeg.zip JPEG library (already included
in most distributions)
tiff.zip TIFF library (already included
in most distributions)
ogl3.zip Optional Object Graphics Library
mmedia.zip Optional MMedia library (Motif, GTK, MSW)
stc.zip Optional wxStyledTextCtrl library
(Motif, GTK, MSW)
tex2rtf2.zip Tex2RTF documentation tool
wxGTK-gl-x.y.z-0.i386.rpm add-on OpenGL binary as an RPM
wxWindows 2 needs to be compiled before you can test out
the samples or write your own applications.
For installation information, please see the install.txt file
in the individual directories:
docs/msw
docs/gtk
docs/motif
docs/mac
For licensing information, please see the files:
docs/preamble.txt
docs/licence.txt
docs/licendoc.txt
docs/gpl.txt
docs/lgpl.txt
Although this may seem complex, it is there to allow authors of
proprietary/commercial applications to use wxWindows in
addition to those writing GPL'ed applications. In summary,
the licence is LGPL plus a clause allowing unrestricted
distribution of application binaries. To answer a FAQ, you
don't have to distribute any source if you wish to write
commercial applications using wxWindows.
However, if you distribute wxGTK or wxMotif (with Lesstif) version
of your application, don't forget that it is linked against
GTK+ (or Lesstif) which is covered by LGPL without exception
notice. Under Linux systems your app is probably linked
against LGPL glibc as well. Please read carefuly LGPL, section 6.
which describes conditions for distribution of closed source applications
linked against LGPL library. Basically you should link dynamicaly and
include source code of LGPL libraries with your product (unless it is
already present in user's system - like glibc usually is).
If compiled with --enable-odbc (Unix only), wxWindows library will
contain iODBC library which is covered by LGPL.
If you use TIFF image handler, please see src/tiff/COPYRIGHT
for libtiff license details.
If you use JPEG image handler, documentation for your program should
contain following sentence: "This software is based in part on the work of
the Independent JPEG Group". See src/jpeg/README for details.
See docs/html/index.htm for an HTML index of the major documents.
See docs/changes.txt for a summary of changes to wxWindows 2.
See docs/tech for an archive of technical notes.
The Windows help files are located in docs/winhelp.
The PDF help files are located in docs/pdf.
The wxWindows Web site is located at:
The wxGTK Web site (with further wxGTK-specific files and
information) is located at:
http://www.freiburg.linux.de/~wxxt
The main wxWindows ftp site is at:
ftp://www.remstar.com/pub/wxwin
A wxWindows CD-ROM with the latest distribution plus an HTML
front-end and hundreds of MB of compilers, utilities and other
material may be ordered from the CD-ROM page: see the wxWindows
web site.
Have fun!

wxWindows 2 currently supports the following platforms:
Additionally, the wxBase library containing only the non GUI classes can be
built under Unix/Win32 and (with some limitation) BeOS.
Most popular C++ compilers are supported; see the install.txt
file for each platform (available via docs/html/index.htm) for details.
See also http://www.lpthe.jussieu.fr/~zeitlin/wxWindows/platform.html.

setup files
wxMSW-x.y.z.zip Zip archive containing all the
files that are in the setup
distribution
As well as the core source, the wxMSW distribution contains:
wxBase-x.y.z.tgz wxBase source distribution (the same files
wxBase-x.y.z.zip but compressed using different formats)
wxBase-x.y.z-0.i386.rpm wxBase Linux binaries as an RPM
wxBase-x.y.z-0.src.rpm source for the i386 RPM above
wxBase-devel-x.y.z-0.i386.rpm wxBase headers (requires wxBase.rpm)
wxBase doesn't include the documentation as you are likely to already have it
from either wxGTK or wxMSW distributions. If you don't, please download the
manual separately.
NB: you can also build wxBase from the files included in either wxMSW or wxGTK
distribution (follow the same instructions as for wxBase distribution in
doc/base/install.txt)
