[CMake] CMake 2.4 (8) & WxWidgets + RichText Pt 2

[Eric Torstenson]

Hi Miguel,

Well, with this in mind, I did a bit of playing, and decided that the 
problem wasn't so much that FindwxWidgets.cmake needed to be changed, 
but instead, I was calling it incorrectly.

What I had to do was as follows:

SET (wxWidgets_USE_LIBS aui richtext adv html core xml base xrc qa net)
SET (wxWidgets_FIND_COMPONENTS true)

FIND_PACKAGE(wxWidgets)
IF (wxWidgets_FOUND)
    INCLUDE (${wxWidgets_USE_FILE})
    #Project name is just the project being built
    TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES(${ProjectName} ${wxWidgets_LIBRARIES})
ENDIF (wxWidgets_FOUND)

Since, by default, FIND_COMPONENTS is false, it was using what you 
described as the windows mechanism. Which did work after I added those 
two components to the underlying cmakefiles, but what I really needed to 
do was set it up so your module would find them using the other logic.

So, I think I finally got it straightened out.

Thanks,

Eric
