Hi, No doubt you'll get a more informative and complete response from Mattia, but from me On 13/06/2011 13:11, Ahmad Zawawi wrote: > Hi, > > Since i worked a lot lately with Alien::wxWidgets while building and > testing Wx::Scintilla, I acquired a couple of questions and feature > requests for Alien::wxWidgets. > > - How can one decide whether wxWidgets is installed from source or > linked against system wxWidgets? > - What are the supported Alien::wxWidgets configurations over > ActivePerl? ActivePerl + cl works but is ActivePerl + gcc working? I use mingw-w64 32 and 64 bit gcc compilers to build against all current versions of ActivePerl. A recent gcc from mingw.org works too. Occasionally, in the past, a particular release of ActivePerl broke gcc compatibility, though I can't remember the last one. (one of the 5.10.1 releases) For this reason I'm in the habit of still using ExtUtils::FakeConfig, creating my own libperl5xx.a and loading a Config_w64.pm ( http://www.wxperl.co.uk/building/Config_w64.pm ) > - What are the supported Alien::wxWidgets configurations of over > Linux, Mac OS X and other platforms?

See Wx source ext/richtext/RichText.xs Hope it helps. Mark > > Thanks and your time is greatly appreciated, > Ahmad M. ZawawiThread Previous | Thread Next
