[wxperl-users] Compiling CVS

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

Hi,

If I try to compile wxPerl CVS against wxWidgets 2.7.1 and also against
the latest wxWidgets CVS (so 2.7.2):

On Win32 with VC6 - I get following output

.......
Grid.c(6323) : warning C4189: 'CLASS' : local variable is initialized
but not referenced
Grid.c(6848) : error C2440: '=' : cannot convert from 'void (__cdecl
*)(const struct wxPliEventDescription *)' to '<Unknown>'
        This conversion requires a reinterpret_cast, a C-style cast or
function-style cast
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'cl' : return code '0x2'

Its the addition of the new event stuff in helpers.h / helpers.cpp that
causes this. I've spent a fair amount of time trying to figure out how
to fix but my very limited C++ / C means I'm defeated :-(

It looks like some VC6 specific evil to me as I really can't see what is
missing / wrong.

Regards

Mark
