Hi all.  
I try to compile with MinGW 8.1.0 an app based on wx 3.1.5.

I get the following error.

C:\Qt\Tools\mingw810\_32\bin\windres.exe: can’t open cursor file `wx/msw/hand.cur’: Permission denied

This is the verbose line  
C:\Qt\Tools\mingw810\_32\bin\windres.exe -O coff -DUNICODE -D\_CRT\_SECURE\_NO\_WARNINGS -D\_UNICODE -I C:\Palm\v238\src -I C:\Palm\v238\src\missing -I C:\wxWidgets\3.1.5\lib\gcc\_lib\mswud **-I C:\wxWidgets\3.1.5\include** C:\Palm\v238\src\smartgas.rc CMakeFiles\smartgas.dir\smartgas.rc.obj

The problem is about -I paths.

If I put **-I C:\wxWidgets\3.1.5\include** as fist -I option the obj file is produced

C:\Qt\Tools\mingw810\_32\bin\windres.exe -O coff -DUNICODE -D\_CRT\_SECURE\_NO\_WARNINGS -D\_UNICODE **-I C:\wxWidgets\3.1.5\include** -I C:\Palm\v238\src -I C:\Palm\v238\src\missing -I C:\wxWidgets\3.1.5\lib\gcc\_lib\mswud C:\Palm\v238\src\smartgas.rc CMakeFiles\smartgas.dir\smartgas.rc.obj

I’d like to put **-I C:\wxWidgets\3.1.5\include** as first oprion for windres.  
I play with CMAKE\_RC\_FLAGS but I don’t achieve this.

Which is the right cmake variabile to modify to put **-I C:\wxWidgets\3.1.5\include** as first option for windres?

Best regards,  
MZ

Hi all.  
I found the solution to my problem.

I use set\_property on app.rc

set\_property(SOURCE app.rc PROPERTY INCLUDE\_DIRECTORIES ${wxWidgets\_ROOT\_DIR}/include)

I get just one -I option, as I need
