If I compile Wx using Strawberry 5.14.3, should that module then work if deployed to something still on 5.14.2.1? > As gcc on Windows from 4.5.x onwards solves this problem and current > Strawberry releases have a compatible gcc (4.6.3), it is not on my > list to noodle around with this further. Yeah, that makes sense. Thanks for your help. Smylers [*1] Ironically I chose Dwim Perl over Strawberry was because it comes with Wx, so I thought that would make life simpler. Unfortunately wxWidgets 2.8 has some regressions in terms of user interface behaviour when compared with the ancient version people were using, so it turns out I don't want to use the Wx that comes with Dwim Perl anyway ... -- http://twitter.com/Smylers2Thread Previous | Thread Next
