Re: [wxperl-users] Wx::ActiveX abandoned?

[Mark D. <mar...@zn...>]

Eric,

As a temp fix assuming you are using wxWidgets 2.6.x or later
you can comment out the three lines for
SetTransparent()
CleanUpClasses
InitializeClasses

for the wxLogTrace stuff, you can either comment them out or change

from
wxLogTrace(wxT('My Message'))
to
wxLogTrace('%s', wxT('My Message'))

That done, it should build. (it builds on a VC6 built perl)
Whether it works or not is a different question :-)

With regard to your earlier question (packaging Win32::OLE), have you
tried simply loading Win32::OLE before you load Wx::ActiveX?

So 'use Win32::OLE;' at the top of your script?


Regards

Mark
