in thread Wx::ProgressDialog, please help

ActivePerl 5.8.4. I don't think it's 5.8.3 or the threads.

In your first reply you say Wx-0.19 with wxMSW-2.4.2, but now you say Wx-0.19 with wxMSW-2.5.2, which is it? Did you compile it yourself?

Its got nothing to do with luck. I think wxGtk2.4 may have a bug, in which case you need to get the 2.5.x version and recompile.

As for your windows install I think you got some bad binaries, where'd you get'em?

I hope you contact the list, Good luck

    I don't see how it can be a GTK problem, since it manifests (different) under windows as well. I think it's just a 2.4.2 thing.

    I found binaries for 2.5.2 under windows, installing.

    and I'm compliing a 2.5.2 SRPM for lunix.

    {update}: I didn't think the other post went through because it's too far down in the tree to see in my default view... So that's why the two dups above... I wish I wasn't such an idiot out loud.

    No, it's 2.4.2... that was simply a typo. I don't think there even is such a thing. And it can't really be a gtk bug, because it doesn't work in windows either.

    Ah, apparently there is a 2.5.2 version. Silly me, I grabbed the "stable" version.

    And to be honest, I didn't see that you were running the development branch. My mind can't see a difference between 2.4.2 and 2.5.2 until it's obvious that I missed something.

    I'm not really excited about moving to the development branch. I found wxWindows difficult to compile and used binaries. I don't even have a compiler for the windows machine, so unless I can find a binary ppd, I don't think it's going to happen.

    It at least seems clear that it's the 2.4.2 version that's not working quite right. That at least resolves the problem.

      Update: I found binaries for 2.5.2 for both windows and linux. Awesome. Hopefully this works. Question 2: Do you know where I can find a Wx-0.20 binary for active perl? I seem to suck at finding windows software, but it seems that you found it somewhere.
