I would love to, but I can't get it to build.  I might have something=20
wrong in my setup, but it looks like there's a problem of it being=20
built for 2.4 compatibility.  I get lots of errors about wxLogTrace()=20
having a different prototype as well as SetTransparent() undeclared=20
(and looking in the include/wx/msw/window.h source I find that inside=20
of "#if WXWIN_COMPATIBILITY_2_4".)

But the real showstopper appears to be:

  ActiveX.xs: In function
    `void boot_Wx__ActiveX(PerlInterpreter*, CV*)':
  ActiveX.xs:36: error:=20
    `CleanUpClasses' is not a member of `wxClassInfo'
  ActiveX.xs:37: error:=20
    `InitializeClasses' is not a member of `wxClassInfo'

We've been using the binary build off of sourceforge, but I don't see=20
any source there.  What's the secret to getting this to build?

I'm using the camelpack, and never did get WxPerl to build from source=20
either, so I've probably got troubles.  I'm not sure how to get=20
wxWidgets to build from source either -- think the configure or=20
something was the trouble.

Thanks,
Eric
