Thread: WX Widgets Version
I have WX Widgets 3.0.2, which includes WX Widgets 2.8 compatibility.
My PGAdmin3 compilation (configuration) fails with:
configure: error: The version of wxWidgets required (2.8) is not supported by
the installations in /usr.
My WX Widgets configuration is:
======
Configured wxWidgets 3.0.2 for `x86_64-dt-linux-gnu'
Which GUI toolkit should wxWidgets use? GTK+ 2 with support
for GTK+ printing libnotify Should wxWidgets be compiled into single library? no Should wxWidgets be linked as a
sharedlibrary? yes Should wxWidgets support Unicode? yes (using wchar_t) What level of
wxWidgetscompatibility should be enabled? wxWidgets 2.6 no
wxWidgets 2.8 yes Which libraries should wxWidgets use? STL
no jpeg sys png
sys regex builtin
tiff sys zlib sys
expat sys libmspack no
sdl no
=======
So that you can see that wxWidgets 2.8 IS supported (as a compatibility mode).
Is it the case that PGAdmin3 SHOULD compile and work with the latest WX
Widgets, provided that 2.8 compatibility is enabled?
If so, is there a problem with the configuration that fails to detect this
support?
Regards,
David

This has never been tested as far as I'm aware. It does work with 3.0 in general, though there are a few glitches. > If so, is there a problem with the configuration that fails to detect this > support? The config script certainly doesn't know how to use 3.0 in 2.8 compatibility mode. -- Dave Page Blog: http://pgsnake.blogspot.com Twitter: @pgsnake EnterpriseDB UK: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company

The vast majority of the work to support 3.0 (in non-compatibility mode) has been done. It just needs some tweaks. I tried it a couple of days ago as it happens, and the only issue I saw in a quick test was that the "Connecting to server" busy panel now sits on top of the "Enter password" dialogue, instead of the other way round.

Thank you both for your feedback. I am assuming that I should be able to pick up the development sources from GIT or similar and make it work (as well as it does at the moment). Thanks again.

Thank you again. I obtained 1.20.0 and, with the configuration option '--with-wx-version=3.0', everything compiled without issue, and pgadmin3 appears to work.
