[erlang-bugs] erlang with newer wxWidgets (>= 2.8.9.1, maybe earlier versions)

[Nico Kruber]

I tried building it on openSUSE Factory and it failed because of that
-> could be because of such flag - as far as I can see, those are the options 
used to build that rpm:

# common_configure_opts="--prefix=%{_prefix} \  
#     --datadir=%{_datadir} \  
#     --libdir=%{_libdir} \  
#     --enable-rpath=%{_libdir} \  
#     --with-opengl \  
#     --with-libmspack \  
#     --with-sdl \  
#     --enable-sound \  
#     --with-gnomeprint \  
#     --with-gnomevfs \  
#     --enable-iff \  
#     --enable-geometry \  
#     --enable-optimise \  
#     --with-gtk=2 \ 
#     --enable-controls \  
#     --enable-calendar \  
#     --enable-tabdialog \  
#     --enable-std_iostreams\  
#     --enable-plugins \  
#     --disable-precomp-headers \  
#     --enable-stl"  

each with and without unicode:

# # build ANSI version  
# pushd wxWidgets-ansi  
# ../configure --disable-unicode ${common_configure_opts}  

# # build Unicode version  
# pushd wxWidgets-unicode  
# ../configure --enable-unicode ${common_configure_opts}  

-> the patch I supplied solves the (only) 3 lines that didn't compile and 
afaik it should result in the same behaviour (actually I never used wx, so I 
tried to stick to the changes that were made to the mentioned helpfrm.cpp 
file)

PS: If you use the openSUSE Build Service, you could have a look at the 
compile logs for the mentioned distributions with that patch applied (among 
others the "official" openSUSE packages use as well):
