So the next release of mingw-w64 will be able to build wx3.x?

I can build it allready with the git version, not sure if Tim's patch was allready applied as i did a build a few hours after posting the patch. So unless they used some other means to get over this bug, then it looks like it's allready up.

What git url are you using because it was not in the url I tried 3 hours ago.

No need to ask when it will be committed; I just wished to confirm I had the right URL to watch.

Edit: The multi-lib wxWidgets builds without issue; but, the monolithic build errors out without the patch.
Unless, you add the allow multiple linker option.

committed, unfortunatly the patch ended up as being by me when committed upstream, sorry about that :/.

But it should be availiable in the master branch now atleast.

as for where to post future patches then it's here mailto:mingw-w64-public@lists.sourceforge.net but you need to subscribe first at the sourceforge site.

Let me know when there is a released binary, so I can try it.

I can upload new build with the fixed runtimes if nessesary, but it might be faster for some to just do a git pull from master and then rebuild the headers and crt from there if they have Msys2 or Msys.

Also i might have fixed the image assertions in the WxWidgets-3.0.3 codeblocks builds for good, i can now open and build with it without any errors so far.

Might not be the correct place but what i did was this.

in  src/main.cpp in the MainFrame::MainFrame(wxWindow* parent) function put 

// avoid image assertions, initialize all image backends.
wxInitAllImageHandlers();

just after

// New: Allow drag and drop of files into the editor
SetDropTarget(new cbFileDropTarget(this));

after this the only oddity is that the codeblocks IDE flickers in the tray for a few moments before showing, no errors though.

https://sourceforge.net/projects/cbadvanced/files/MinGW%20Builds/TDM/mingw32-TDM-gcc-6.4.0-2.7z/download

Now sports python-3.4 as well as python-2.7 for those who might want to try out that.
To use the Tools and libraries in /mingw<arch>/opt you will need to have them on path, this can be done in several ways.
From CodeBlocks add to <additional paths>
From Msys or Msys2, modify /etc/profile and add it there.
From Cmd via batch file.

Make sure /mingw<arch>/opt/bin comes after /mingw<arch>/bin.

I can also upload a snapshot of the 64 bit wx-3.0.3 CodeBlocks build mentioned earlier.

@reckless: What asserts? Can you post backtrace?

wxBitmap.IsOk() kept comming up with a trace to an existing image, but i could get around that by selecting cancel, was a bit annoying though.

So i started looking up if anyone else was running into that problem, and found a thread on the WxWidgets forum pointing out that you need to initialize all the image handlers first to avoid that assert.

I don't see this issue (mingw-build gcc 5.4 32bit compiler + wx3.1 release (with this patch applied #17483 (wxDynamicCast segfault with mingw64 5.3.0 release build) – wxWidgets + codeblocks svn head)

EDIT: I normally only build the core plugins, so you issue may caused by the contributed plugins.
If some piece of memory should be reused, turn them to variables (or const variables).
If some piece of operations should be reused, turn them to functions.
If they happened together, then turn them to classes.

Cant rule it out, but atleast it works for me now :)
the old wxwidget-2.8 build has worked like a charm, a native 64 bit build does have its advantages though, but untill now i had problems with it, so im happy :)

Please post the backtrace from gdb or the assert dialog window.
