Making WxWidgets work in C++

I installed precompiled WxWidget libraries and tried to run the default program in CodeBlocks but it gives the following error:

    mingw32-g++.exe: error: bin\Release\new2.exe: No such file or directory

Paths for WxWidget Libraries and MinGW are already specified. My question is; How to make CodeBlocks generate a .exe file for WxWidgets project?

I have already tried all solutions listed in this question: "No such file or directory" error in CodeBlocks

Complete Build Log:

 -L -o bin\Release\new2.exe

Here's the problem. The -L flag requires an argument, but the usual argument (a directory to search for libraries) is not provided. So the next flag, -o, is interpreted as an argument to -L, and bin\Release\new2.exe is interpreted as a name of an input file, which of course doesn't exist yet.

Check your compiler flags and make sure there's no stray -L anywhere, and no "additional libraries directory" is specified as a white space string or similar.
