Hi,
please find enclosed patch that makes Alien::wxWidgets compatible with gcc4
toolchains provided by mingw-w64.sf.net project. This toolchain is very likely
to be used in the future 64-bit strawberry perl release and it would be nice to
support wxWidgets also on this platform.
The patch handles basically 2 things:
1) better detection of GNU make - I have added "gmake" and value from
$Config{gmake} to searched candidates
2) harcoded DLL name "mingwm10.dll" does not work on new gcc4 as it uses
completely different DLLS, unfortunately the DLL name is not fixed (it differs
for 32-bit / 64-bit gcc4 compilers), therefore I have decided to implement a
sort simple wildcard search.
Of course I have tried to be backward compatible.
Please consider the enclosed patch to the following files:
inc\My\Build\Win32_MinGW.pm
inc\My\Build\Base.pm
Thanks.
