As far as I see, it works fine on windows 7 with wx2.8 and actual trunk.
Any thoughts on removing the ticket #9057 junk?
Also, the advantage of patching wx instead of scintilla is at least the wx guys are likely to accept the patch in the next 5 years.
I will open a ticket there or probably reopen #9057 this evening.
And as far as I can see the "workaround" is no longer needed and can therefore be removed.
Other devs:
any objections against doing it ?
Removing the #9057 "workaround" and the problematic call to update ?
If not I will commit it this evening.
If the whole C::B breaks down
, we can still revert it.
