Re: [wxCode-users] Executing programs with Bakefile

[Joseph B. <jb...@um...>]

The bakefile is databaselayer.bkl at
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/wxcode/wxCode/components/databaselayer/build/databaselayer.bkl

Now that I think about it more, maybe the tests_firebird.cpp file should 
be added to CVS (which would eliminate the issue completely).  The main 
reason it isn't in CVS is that everything I've read indicates that it's 
best to leave script generated files out of the source control system. 
Unfortunately, it this situation is requires the user to have cxxtest 
installed.

Thanks for looking at this!

I'll try to get wxspellchecker and 
shortcutpanel under bakefiles also after the next databaselayer release.
