Building wxWidgets 3.0.3 program on CLion (windows)

Question

Building wxWidgets 3.1.0 on CLion (Ubuntu)

Getting started with wxWidgets and CLion?

To learn these question,I can run Wxwidgets GUI "hello world" program in my clion to use wxwidgets 3.0.3.

But I can't run other wxwidgets sample like as grid aui ribbon advance GUI in the same way.These GUI sample can be run at my CODE::BLOCKS.

OS:Server 2016

clion:2017.2.3

wxwidgets:3.0.3

code::block:16.01

MingW: x86_64-4.9.3-win32-seh-rt_v4-rev1

My cmakelist.txt as following after study every where (wxconfig.exe have copy to the cmake bin dictionary) :
Modify the cmakelist,

 cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.9)
project(HelloTest)

#set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 11)
set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -std=gnu++11")

find_package(wxWidgets REQUIRED
        core base aui html jpeg tiff png gif zlib
#        adv dbgrid expat html jpeg ribbon
#        media mono net png propgrid qa
#        regex ribbon  richtext scintilla
#        stc tiff webview  xml xrc zlib
        )

include(${wxWidgets_USE_FILE})

include_directories(D:/IDE/wxWidgets-3.0.3/samples)
set(SOURCE_FILES auidemo.cpp)
add_executable(HelloTest ${SOURCE_FILES})
target_link_libraries(HelloTest ${wxWidgets_LIBRARIES})

But I get some error as following

don't use CMake. Just do `make` in appropriate directory. wxWidgets is not made for CMake and hopefully never will be. It uses different build generation system. — Igor, Oct 11 '17 at 02:22
Thanks to all,I can complie the wxwidgets and its sample to use "mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc..." ,But I want to know how to run in clion. — andrew, Oct 11 '17 at 10:38
what do you mean by "want to know how to run in clion"? Do you mean configuring CLion to compile wxWidgets code? — macroland, Oct 13 '17 at 03:32
I have solved it,when I compile the wxwidgets,use "MONOLITHIC=1" replace the "MONOLITHIC=0" to make static lib ,the issue is gone.Not do anything in clion.Thanks again. — andrew, Oct 13 '17 at 12:31
you need to make `SHARED=0` if you want to get static libraries — macroland, Oct 19 '17 at 08:47

    1.I use "mingw32-make -j 8 -f makefile.gcc BUILD=debug MONOLITHIC=0 SHARED=0 UNICODE=1 USE_GUI=1 USE_OPENGL=1 USE_ODBC=1 RUNTIME_LIBS=static MSLU=1 VENDOR=..  CXXFLAGS=-std=gnu++11 -Wall",The Clion can't compile the sample code.

    2.when I use "mingw32-make -j 8 -f makefile.gcc BUILD=debug ***MONOLITHIC=1*** SHARED=0 UNICODE=1 USE_GUI=1 USE_OPENGL=1 USE_ODBC=1 RUNTIME_LIBS=static MSLU=1 VENDOR=..  CXXFLAGS=-std=gnu++11 -Wall"",all the andvance GUI sample code can be compile and run.

    3.Follow the offical doc,The vision of MingW “x86_64-4.9.3-win32-seh-rt_v4-rev1” be used .it's working well.

    4.I have try the other vison MingW ,it's not working.

The other way,if we compile the Wxwidgets use "MONOLITHIC=0",we must link the libxxx.a in order. and add the "-lcomctl32 " option ,My new cmakelist.txt as follow.it's work well;
