Hi,
-D_USE_32BIT_TIME_T
is part of ActivePerl configuration
( see perl -V:ccflags )
so this gets used building all Perl modules.
Currently Alien::wxWidgets does not pass all Perl flags to the wxWidgets
build (most are irrelevant there).
I assume by 'current version' you mean wxWidgets development versions
2.9.x and not the stable version 2.8.12?
The next development version (2.9.3) is due for a release in early
December by which time a new Alien::wxWidgets should have been released.
I'm assuming the fix will be to add -D_USE_32BIT_TIME_T to the wxWidgets
build.
Regards
Mark
