@gd_on
Thanks for the information.
Do we have some files to modify for 'Code::Blocks' ?
-
I don't think so. Some patches have already been done.
-
Just remember to activate Direct 2D in include/wx/msw/setup.h before compiling
-
Good news.
I am currently using msys2 prebuild 3.0.5 for my work, hope msys2 will supply 3.1.5 prebuild, but using their build system(pacman, pkg build) is a bit complex to build wxwidgets library myself, anyone had done this? It needs some customized patches.
I think Msys2 thought 3.0.5 as the official release version, 3.1.x is development version.

Is that the only patch left to do ? On wx 3.1.3 I think we had a total of 3-4 patches to carry out ?
Note : on the website 3.1.5 isn't mentioned yet ...

Yes.

It is there, but something caches the old page, so you must click on page refresh.

Yes.
Technically this is not a patch, but a configuration change. BTW I think there are some changes to the setup.h/setup0.h in this release, so beware! :)

I have done this if you list the patch that need added; I could try to submit it as an msys2 package.

Hi, Tim, thanks.
I haven't done that, but I see there is a 3.1.3 version: Base Package: mingw-w64-wxWidgets3.1 - MSYS2 Packages (https://packages.msys2.org/base/mingw-w64-wxWidgets3.1) and https://github.com/msys2/MINGW-packages/tree/master/mingw-w64-wxWidgets3.1
It looks quite complex to build this, see here: wxWidgets: Building wxMSW port with Win32 MSys2 backend (https://docs.wxwidgets.org/trunk/plat_msw_msys2.html)

That was as simple as I could write the directions for use by wxWidgets people who know little of MSys2.
EDIT: You do realize this set of directions is *not* the way to build the msys2 package, right?
