Title: wxWidgets 2.6.3 + Patch2 + MingW WinAPI 3.8 Problem (Solved?)
Post by: joubertdj on November 30, 2006, 10:50:39 am

Okay so I was struggling with this problem so that my little brain was irritated beyond comprehension with a stupid different boolean declaration problem within rpcndr.h within WinAPI 3.8

This Problem is not in 3.7. A Guy called James du Russel added the following:

* include/rpcndr.h (boolean): Add typedef.

And it was released in WinAPI 3.8

Not a big deal and I think it works for other projects of his and mine, but my wxWidgets doesn't want to compile with that boolean declared. Can somebody please confirm this?
Using wxWidgets 2.6.3.1 Plus Patch 2

And if it is confirmed... where do we report this?

I will try to confirm it. What version of GCC 3.42 or 3.45?

I get errors also.
Going to try back porting jmorecfg.h which is fixed for this issue.

I am working on a patch back porting the changes from CVS head; 40 files involved. Be at least an hour to do patch. I am waiting on CVS to complete right now. At the current rate CVS could take hours to finish. I have a dialup so that could be the cause or it could be a server issue.

Only when you rebuild the library... normal usage with a pre-build library is fine...

Patch uploaded to wxWidgets site.

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1606032&group_id=9863&atid=309863

Copy file to wxWidgets folder.

The command to patch is
patch --unified -p0 --input=mypatch_2.6_BRANCH.patch

It also breaks Visual Component Framework (http://vcf-online.org), too. I can't build VCF with the Code:Blocks using winapi v3.8.
WinAPI 3.7 works fine for me.
