Ok, I got it to compile in VC6. I think the crashing was that I forgot to completely recompile wxWidgets since doing a CVS update. There's still the linking warnings which I'll post in a separate message.
I put it in the snapshot directory, its just the binaries wxlua.exe, wxluaedit.exe, and wxluafreeeze.exe. I've used upx on wxlua.exe and wxluaedit.exe and not wxluafreeze.exe since it's better to run that after attaching your program, see the apps/wxluafreeze/src/readme.txt file. Compiled w/ VC6 in release multilib with wxWidgets 2.6.3, but the CVS version of it. http://wxlua.sourceforge.net/download/wxLua_SnapshotBin_2006-09-05.zip I hope this works better for you and let me know if it still leaks. You absolutely have to call :Delete() on any wxColours, wxPens, wxBrushes, wxDCs since the lua garbage collector will let too many of them collect. Use the "Show Stack" in wxluaedit and look at "Tracked List" after running the code below in the "wxLuaShell" window to see what I mean. >> a = wx.wxPen(wx.wxColour(1,2,3), 1, wx.wxSOLID) then show stack, then type >> a:Delete() and show the stack again, notice how you have a wxColour still since lua holds a reference to it, but the GC won't be run until quite a few items have been collected. I will work on making a lua interface to the "Show Stack" to allow a lua program to print out the tracked items for easier debugging.
