Attempt to build using Xcode

Machine:

wxWidgets (via Homebrew):

wxmac: stable 3.0.2 (bottled)
wxWidgets, a cross-platform C++ GUI toolkit (for OS X)
https://www.wxwidgets.org
/usr/local/Cellar/wxmac/3.0.2 (777 files, 41M) *
  Poured from bottle
From: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/blob/master/Library/Formula/wxmac.rb
==> Dependencies
Required: jpeg ✔, libpng ✔, libtiff ✔
==> Options
--with-static
    build static libraries
--with-stl
    use standard C++ classes for everything

When I tried to build, Xcode couldn't include wx/setup.h So I added my the path for the Homebrew install to Header Search Paths; Then type_traits was unrecognized with GNU C++ setting so I updated that; C++11 required OS X target of 10.7 or newer so I updated that from 10.6; Then Linker Flags had problems because libwx_osx_cocoau_*.a files didn't exist but I noticed files in same location ending in .dylib so I modified the endings; Finally error on -lwxregexu-3.0 Linker Flag where I stopped because I don't know what to try next:

ld: library not found for -lwxregexu-3.0
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

I would like to get this building if anyone knows how.

Thanks for the detailed problem report!

Certainly my build instructions are intended for building wxWidgets manually, if you pull it from Homebrew you're bound to end up with slightly different names/directories.

As for wxregexu-3.0, is there nothing in your /usr/local/lib/lib* that looks like it?
What if you just leave that line out (I don't use regex directly in my code, so who knows its not strictly needed).

Once you resolve that problem, there's other wx libs being pulled in that it may not be able to find, like wxtiff-3.0 etc. I don't know where those would be on your machine.

If all else fails, I'd recommend installing wxWidgets as per the instructions in the readme instead of via Homebrew.
