Compiling CatapultPage... In file included from /usr/local/include/wx-2.9/wx/window.h:19:0, from /usr/local/include/wx-2.9/wx/control.h:23, from /usr/local/include/wx-2.9/wx/animate.h:20, from /usr/local/include/wx-2.9/wx/xrc/xmlres.h:29, from src/CatapultPage.cpp:6: /usr/local/include/wx-2.9/wx/event.h: In member function ‘bool CatapultPage::UpdateToggleSetting(wxString, wxString, wxString, int)’: /usr/local/include/wx-2.9/wx/event.h:3069:18: error: ‘virtual bool wxEvtHandler::ProcessEvent(wxEvent&)’ is inaccessible src/CatapultPage.cpp:185:30: error: within this context make: *** [derived/x86-linux-opt/obj/CatapultPage.o] Error 1

From the wxWidgets 2.9.x changes file: " wxWindow::ProcessEvent() (and other wxEvtHandler methods inherited by wxWindow) has been made protected to prevent wrongly using it instead of correct GetEventHandler()->ProcessEvent(). New ProcessWindowEvent() was added for convenience. " So it looks like the Catapult code is not compatible yet with wxWidgets 2.9.x.

    The "Current Stable Release" for wx is currently "wxWidgets 2.8.12", according to the wx site. IMHO it doesn't make sense to support 2.9.x for now, since 2.9.x are development releases.

    1. I think I will not waste time on development releases of wx. Let it enter a 'stable' status, then I will fix.

    2. Additionally, "ProcessEvent" code seems ridiculous for me. There should be a much simpler way to do things; I need to get rid of this event processing call completely, if possible.
