Let me start by saying that the issues could be due to my Windows 11 setup and if you think they are let me know. I have W11 installed as a guest as I want to play with it before upgrading my main PC as IMHO I do not want to get stuck and have to reinstall everything again on my main PC.
I have Windows 11 configured as a virtual guest on Virtualbox 6.1.30 under Windows 10. I have installed MSYS 2 and installed a bunch of packages like I have on my W10 box. I copied my wxwidget 3.1.5 source tree from W10 to W11 and tried to build it, but it hung when creating the DLL using the bin utilities ar.exe. I tried again is the same thing occurred.
Anyone got any pointers or ideas on this one or should I try the wxwidget forums? I won't look at this tonight (Oz time). O could try a different compiler or bin utilites or the latest wxwidget source or TBA or .....

Are you using UCRT64 or MINGW64 command prompt to do the building?

The reason I ask is Windows is going move to an new C Run Time (CRT) and that is used by UCRT64.
That means that maybe the UCRT64 GCC will work for Win11.

Thanks for the response. I have not installed any of the new UCRT64 (or CLANGxx as well btw). I am using the C:\msys64\mingw64 bin files.
I will check out the UCRT64 and give it a go.
