Hi, I tried to follow your steps on WindowsXP. I'm now stuck at setting the WXCFG environment variable to be able to compile wxcore. I can't find a build.cfg so I don't know what path I should set. Any ideas?
BTW: wx-config.exe is not included in the 2.8.10 install-version, nor in the source package. You have to download it from http://wxconfig.googlepages.com/ Eric Y.
