That works OK on a platform like Windows where you've always got the GUI APIs present, but on *nix it causes your application to have dependencies on the X11 and GTK shared libraries (assuming you build wxWidgets for GTK). That's a problem since a lot of Linux/Solaris/AIX/HP-UX/etc. admins don't want any GUI libraries installed. > You may have better luck modifying the Makefiles located in the src/ > dirs.

I don't need the loadable wxlua module or wxLuaFreeze - all I really need is wxLuaState plus the compile and run-time stuff that supports the nice C++ binding generator. I've got a wxWidgets console app that embeds a Lua interpreter for extensions/scripting, and those wxLua items greatly simplify code vs. the plain old Lua C interface. In a pinch that's what I'll have to fall back to, but I'll take a look at the Makefiles and see if I can figure out a way to make it work. I wanted to check with the mailing list first to see if anyone else had been down that road just in case it's a waste of time :-) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Next 800 Companies to Lead America's Growth: New Video Whitepaper David G.
