There are at least two install.html,
http://wxart2d.sourceforge.net/general/install.html
and the one in CVS, for me: D:\wxArt2D\install.html

You are right, the one in CVS is ok. Bad luck for me, I used the one on 
the net. So, docs are out of sync.

Afaik, VC generates and adds a manifest by itself for a few years now 
(since 2005?). wxWidgets provides one, so that one and the generated 
collide. I am not yet in a position, to test the effect (should be 
related to background theming, according to some wxWidgets comments) of 
different settings. I am just happy, to get the demos running at all :-)

There seem to be two things which can be confused (I did).

The compiler can generate code for .dll or .lib (compiler flags /MDd or MTd)
The linker can generate .dll or .lib

These two, compiler and linker output are independently adjustable. And 
afaik it can be reasonable to have dll code in a static lib, when you 
want to link against other dlls.

What went wrong for me, was wxwidgets was compiled as lib and linked as 
lib, but wxart2d was compiled as dll and linked as lib. By this 
wxwidgets used includes for libcmt.lib, but wxart2d used the ones for 
msvcrt.dll, causing redefinition problems etc..

I am not yet sure, if my app needs everything statically linked 
(including the msw stuff) or only the wx libs. Linking all statically 
should avoid versioning issues with msw, but causes bigger files.

If my logic would have been right, generation of /MD or /MT would depend 
on wxWidgets_USE_SHARED. But I said, it might be useful to have .lib 
with /MD, so I am contradicting myself now :-(

When we have agreed on the answers, it's ok for me. I have to write doc 
for my customer otherwise.

For my project I use trac on a PC at home, but probably I will use 
URL-redirection like you, as soon as I need to enable access for others.

Viele Grüße, Michael
