It was a bit of a rough start using this framework because my project involved a custom build in Visual C++ / wxMSW as my intro to wxWidets despite shaking off mainly using C# for the past several years. However, after using it for a couple weeks now I must say that by and large this is an excellent framework with a lot of hard work put into it.

It heralds cross compatibility but doesn't work on Linux and who is funding Microsoft to do this? I've tried many build options (motif gtk no-sdl, various CFLAGS) now with a very up-to-date system. All end up with horrific c+++++++++++++++++ (c++17) errors of dis-allowed ++ syntax and headers already having defined things. Jonny Cash "I've been everywhere man!", with-x11 with-motif with-gtk std=c++11 std=gnu99 version 3.0 version 2.8.4. all are broken even without -j. What gives? This lib contains ALLOT OF SOCKET PUPPETING 0 chances I'd use a "pre-compiled one". 2.8.4 converts 0xff to char (duh) but REMOVES -Wno-narrowing from only Makefile compiling that code (was not using CFLAGS there). IT TURNS OUT you must carefully select LDFLAGS CFLAGS CPPFLAGS CXXFLAGS to values you might not usually think. default shell (nothing set) also my default valued did not work: i had to craft each FLAGS to include -I -L but be simple but not empty. Finally got it compiled so added 1*. AFTER ALL THAT - wxMaxima-11.0.4 (wants 2.8.4) has errors cant find widgets for some version not really in 2.8.4.

wxWidgets is great and stuff.
But I can't report bug because wxTrac is not sending confirmation email.
In 3.0.2 wxTextCtrl with MSW is broken - EVT_CONTEXT_MENU event table handler not invoked (default context menu showed), EVT_MOUSE not send if not on text, cursor is blinking between arrow and text selection-like when mouse moved. 3.0.1 works fine.

Thanks for the guys behind the projects. wxWidgets is really good and excellent framework either for gui and non gui. Recommend for those who looking for the complete library to build multi platform application. Documentation is now getting much better and comprehensive and very easy to navigate. And also there are several RAD tools to build the gui for the choice .......... Keep good effort.!!

It's the best GUI framework with right kind of tools like Dialogblocks.

Throw that old MFC related stuff. This wxWidgets is a much better replacement itself even forgetting of it's cross-platform ability.

Very good toolkit, made my life so much easier when it comes for writing cross platform code.
I have been using it for over 10 years with great success and saw it growing and becoming one of the best GUI toolkit out there (you can ask Google, Dropbox and many many more companies who uses wxWidgets)
In addition it has an active community, active mailing list, dedicated forum and ofc one Vadim Zeitlin :)
