So you should first sort out compiling wx based projects and then bother with the UI editor.

Reading about DialogBlocks, it appears to support making or maybe using Makefiles.
Edit4: I have found no where that says it supports wxWidgets 3.0.0 or higher.

So far, it mentions wx 2.8.12 several times.

Edit1: I just downloaded the trial version the highest number in the wizard is 2.9.4 and the lowest is 2.4.0
Edit3: In another spot the wx version goes from 2.4.0 to 3.1.0

Edit2: It appears to support multiple compilers; no idea how it supports them.
MS Visual C++
Borland C++
Digital Mars C++
Watcom C++
MinGW GCC

Not sure what these are for the Msys says only needed when using GCC configuration; not sure if the same is true for Cygwin

Looks like it might be possible to use Datablocks on any version of wxWidgets.  Accoding to tech support, "Where DB uses versions, you can simply type in the version to match the wxWidgets version. Not all wxWidgets 3 controls are supported, but often you can use foreign controls (basically wxWindow) and change the class name to match the required class, and DB will generate the code to create the control."

I'll have to check out the trial, thanks!
