Hi Mark, That's great news. I'll be testing it today on Kubuntu.
Could I ask that you update news on http://wxperl.sourceforge.net/index.html as well, because it's beginning to look a little unloved. Regards Steve. -----Original Message----- From: Mark Dootson [mailto:mark.doot...@znix.com] Sent: 28 February 2012 03:11 To: wxPerl users Subject: New release of Wx / Alien::wxWidgets Hi, Just uploaded to CPAN Alien::wxWidgets 0.55 Wx 0.9904 Wx::Demo 0.14 Apart from various fixes and additions noted in the changes files, the major feature of these releases is support for wxWidgets 2.9.3 On 64bit MacOSX wxWidgets 2.9.3 is now the default. Xcode 4.3 now works - tested against system installed Perl and a simple perlbrew ( perlbrew install perl-5.14.2 -Duseithreads -Duseshrlib ) To build 2.9.3 wxWidgets on Windows, any recent MSVC compiler should work. To use mingw you need a fairly recent gcc. My tested one is available from http://sourceforge.net/projects/perlmingw/files this includes a Config file that allows use with ActivePerl. Also, for a mingw build you'll have to give the build script some options manually: perl Build.PL --wxWidgets-unicode=1 --wxWidgets-graphicscontext=1 then enter 2.9.3 as the version you want to build. For Strawberry Perl, I think you'll have to wait till the next Strawberry release for an updated gcc - so stick with wxWidgets 2.8.12 Regards Mark
