wxWidgets and unicode

=====================

​

wxWidgets can be compiled in unicode mode. This is needed for some controls

to work correctly with unicode locales. However some applications were not

written in respect to this compile time option and thus won't compile. This

is the reason why this package contains both unicode and non unicode

versions of the library.

​

If you want to compile an application using wxWidgets, it will by default

use the unicode version, in case it doesn't compile (you get errors about

wrong conversion to wxString and simmilar), you can pass the parameter

--unicode=[yes|no] to wx-config to select the wanted wxGTK version.

​

Non-unicode libraries are shipped in a separate package - wxWidgets-compat
