I haven't looked at wxwidgets with perl6, and the last time I used it
was with python many moons ago.
But I think the "AST converter" you're refering to is probably
App::GPTrixie - https://github.com/Skarsnik/gptrixie
If you have more questions, feel free to ask on the mailing list, or on
Stack Overflow, or real-time discussions on IRC, links can be found on
perl6.org
I haven't actually tried the C++ stuff in NativeCall, but we can surely
figure it out together :)
