Hi,
The following function (based on code in the wxDemo) is used in Padre
to load the
xpm files for the toolbar. This works well on Ubuntu but gives
"no image handler for type 9 defined" error on Windows
using wx 0.84, wxwidgets 2.8.7 on strawberry perl 5.10
any idea why and how to solve it would be appreciated.
You need to ensure all necessary image handlers are loaded;
some are loaded by default (BMP under Windows, XPM under *nix,
maybe some others). The easiest way is to call
Wx::InitAllImageHandlers, otherwise you can add the handlers
one by one (see Available image handlers in wxImage documentation).

P.S.: it is a but more complicate than that: there are also some
(native) bitmap handlers that work directly on bitmaps, but
the bitmap loading code also uses wxImage as a generic way
to load bitmaps
