#26410: wxwidgets-devel v2.9.1 -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Reporter: brad@… | Owner: jwa@… Type: update | Status: reopened Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: Port: wxWidgets-devel | -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Comment(by tvb377@…): The released wxWidgets 2.9.0 was of no great use for production software, maybe that's why the original Portfile author went this way. Currently, I'm not using much of wxWidgets in my projects, my code compiles and works with 2.9.1. Some time ago I ported CodeLite to a snapshot of wx > 2.9.0 just to see if it is useable and this was not too lengthy or difficult (see also [http://docs.wxwidgets.org/2.9.1/overview_changes_since28.html|the wx change documentation]). In my opinion it would be good to endorse usage of wx > 2.8 for compatibility with x86_64 (and who knows when Apple decides to remove Carbon completely). But I just spent some minutes trying to compile pgAdmin with wx 2.9.1 Besides some character type conversion errors which might be easy to fix this fails because it requires wxOGL. wxOGL is noted as dead on some wikis and was moved out of wxWidgets. It does not compile with 2.9.1. All not too difficult, but IMO not the job of a macport. --> I'd leave it as is. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/26410#comment:9> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
