Hi,
CPAN releases of Alien-wxWidgets & Wx do not yet support building
against 2.9.4.
Current Wx SVN repository code fixes the type mismatches you saw ( the
-fpermissive flag allows compilation but code would break in actual
usage) and it also fixes the wxRA_USE_CHECKBOX / wxRB_USE_CHECKBOX issue
you see.
However, the build still fails tests / is broken.
A recent wxWidgets change
http://trac.wxwidgets.org/changeset/71571
breaks Wx loading of wxWidgets dlls ( and probably addin plugins like
Wx::PdfDocument as well).
The error exists for all platforms( wxMSW , wxOSX and wxGTK).
The code faults in wxPluginLibrary::UpdateClasses()
I'm still at the head scratching stage regarding a fix.
For your own usage, you could simply revert the changes in changeset
71571 in the wxWidgets source and build from that. There's nothing in
the rest of the wxWidgets code that's dependent on these changes.
Regards
Mark
