As of wx2.9, the original Scintilla wrapper wxStyledTextCtrl (wx/contrib/../stc) has become an 'official' wx class (wx/src/stc).
Is it really necessary to fork?
Regards
PS: wxScintilla fork
rickg22:
I recall that in the wx2.4 times, the STC editor wasn't well maintained, and wxScintilla was seen (at least by me) as some kind of blessing. But knowing we can patch it whenever we can without having to depend on a specific wx version, I feel better. It's much more convenient when you can modify the code however you like.

Interesting.
Did you have to massage a lot of code/files?
What would the end user see on your build that is different? Performance differences? Features?

Ok... I embedded scintilla 1.7.6 into the latest wxScintilla (the one of C::B 08.02) within C::B. On Windows it works, but I had to modify wxScintilla for this (as expected). Now what should I try to see if bugs got fixed / remain?!

Morten, I'm happy to help test it if you want to throw me a patch against the latest svn.
