Thank you very much gd_on. I added the cxxflags option and both the compile & link ran. The debug version is compiling now. One may hope.
Would you direct me to the "main Tdragon post". It is underlined in your post but is not a link. The best clue I have for wxWidgets make parameters is the CB wiki & it only mentions the basic options. A knowledgeable update would be nice.
