I tried the new code, but it fails on properly finding wxWidgets
again. As expected since my changes had nothing to do with the find issue that you discovered and solved a couple of days ago.
as CMake identifies the search method as "Windows". The method is
rather elaborate and fails on finding the libraries. When I tried it before using the "Unix" method it did work, so I am inclined to use that instead (reinstating the extra check). Then the IPC3 option should kick in properly if I understand the changes correctly. I have not had time to try it yet though. Please do start the comprehensive tests I requested when you solved the find problem (at least for the "Unix Makefiles" generator) a couple of days ago. The reason I have requested those tests is because in my view sorting out any remaining wxwidgets problems for the MinGW-w64/MSYS2 platform is release critical. I emphasize wxwidgets comprehensive testing activity should really not take very much of your time since the interactive comprehensive test (assuming you adopt the script arguments I recommended to limit the testing just to wxwidgets) took only 15 minutes here, and during that time the only "interactive" thing I had to do was to close two interactive wxwidgets GUIs 9 different times (i.e., for our 3 different kinds of builds for our 3 different major configurations). And, of course, that time will be much shorter and the number of GUIs you have to close much fewer, if you run into problems early in the tests run by the script. Anyhow, once the wxwidgets-only comprehensive test has completed, you should send me the report tarball so I can figure out more source code changes to deal with any issues that are revealed by that report tarball. Given how little time per day is required for your part of this testing, and your earlier off-list statement to me that June would be a convenient month for you to do testing, would you be willing to run that script and send me the report tarball once per day (i.e., give me daily turnaround)?
