Issues when compiling CodeBlocks 13.12

Question

I'd like to install C::B on my laptop (running under fedora 20). But it seems that C::B 13.12 doesn't exist on fedora's deposit. So I have downloaded the source code in order to compile it.

This is what I did:

1_ ./configure

It seems to work well.

You can now build Code::Blocks by issuing 'make'.
When the build is complete, become root and install
it by issuing 'make install'.

2_

make

It doesn't work:

What's wrong ? (I have installed wxWidgets.)

----------EDIT----------

Compiling wxWidgets has solved the compilation error, but I get others when I make C::B 13.12.

This is the error:

I think it comes from the fact that I haven't installed the static library:

[bog@Asus trunk]$ ./configure | grep wxWidgets
/home/bog/Téléchargements/codeblocks-13.12/missing: Unknown `--is-lightweight' option
Try `/home/bog/Téléchargements/codeblocks-13.12/missing --help' for more information

How can I installed it ?

wxGtk3-3.0.1-1 and wxGTK-2.8.12, it should be enought, isn't it ? — bog

wxGTK 3.0.x definitely does have wxPGProperty::IsChildSelected(), so it looks like you configured C::B to use a wrong wxWidgets version. My advice would be to install any older versions you have (while you can have several wxWidgets version installed in parallel, it can result in some confusion, so why do it if you don't really need them) and reconfigure and then run make again.
