C++ wxWidgets application not compiling - c++

Question

I am having a problem compiling my wxWidgets program.
#include <wx/wx.h>
#include <wx/url.h>
#include <wx/stream.h>
#include <wx/sstream.h>
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
wxURL url(wxT("http://google.com"));
if (url.GetError()==wxURL_NOERR)
{
wxString htmldata;
wxInputStream *in = url.GetInputStream();
if (in && in->IsOk())
{
wxStringOutputStream html_stream(&htmldata);
in->Read(html_stream);
}
wxPuts(html_stream.GetString();
}
}
When I try to compile it, I get the following errors:
main.cpp In function 'int main(int, char**)':
main.cpp 8 error: 'wxURL' was not declared in this scope
main.cpp 8 error: expected ';' before 'url'
main.cpp 9 error: 'url' was not declared in this scope
main.cpp 9 error: 'wxURL_NOERR' was not declared in this scope
main.cpp 12 error: 'wxInputStream' was not declared in this scope
main.cpp 12 error: 'in' was not declared in this scope
main.cpp 15 error: 'wxStringOutputStream' was not declared in this scope
main.cpp 15 error: expected ';' before 'html_stream'
main.cpp 16 error: 'html_stream' was not declared in this scope
main.cpp 18 error: 'html_stream' was not declared in this scope
=== Build finished: 10 errors, 0 warnings ===
What am I doing wrong? Should I be using OnInit() instead of int main(), even if I want the application to be a console, non-gui one?

Take a look into your setup.h file for wxWidgets and be sure that wxURL is #define as
#define wxUSE_URL 1
For more information into your setup file (setup.h), take a look at http://wiki.wxwidgets.org/Setup.H
To take a look at a sample of wxURL, take a look into the your wxWidgets folder, go to "samples" and look into "sockets_client".
