While waiting fow wxWidgets developers to fix this issue (if they ever will fix it) you can go with your own implementation based on winapi.
There is an StackOverflow question with an example how it is done in Chromium:

Re: working with secure FTP using wxFTP
+1 for libcurl, you should always use it and not even bother learning wxHTTP or wxFTP because these classes have much more limitations compared with libcurl which you will need sooner or later.

Re: wxmsw30u_gcc48.dll missing from your computer
In the same folder as EXE. Or build wxWidgets as a static library, that way no DLL will be required.

Re: wxmsw30u_gcc48.dll missing from your computer
If you run the EXE from inside IDE most likely the DLL will be found automatically.
Don't know about wxPack (don't use it), but if you compile wxWidgets yourself the DLL can be found in "C:\wxWidgets-3.0.0\lib\gcc_dll\" folder.

Re: wxmsw30u_gcc48.dll missing from your computer
The DLL must be in the same folder as your EXE or (NOT recommended) somewhere in %PATH%. The IDE can locate the DLL for you and be able to run your program from inside it, so nothing is dissapearing "over night". The exact location of the DLL only you can find where it is, nobody will down...

Why don't you use wxString::ToStdWString().c_str() ?

Re: wxDialog with minimize/maximize button in linux
The documentation for wxMiniFrame says that :
So it is not a solution.wxMINIMIZE_BOX:
Displays a minimize box on the frame (Windows and Motif only).
wxMAXIMIZE:
Displays the frame maximized (Windows only).

Displays a maximize box on the frame (Windows and Motif only).

Re: Safely popping up a menu that acts as a submenu elsewher
Just use another wxMenu* on the heap using the same IDs as you used on menu attached to menu bar. The event handler will be exactly the same, no changes required.

Re: Connecting a single event to a specific method in wxWidg
For menu you need to use something like that: this->Connect( about->GetId(), wxEVT_COMMAND_MENU_SELECTED, wxCommandEventHandler( MainFrame::OnAbout ) ); here "about" is a wxMenuItem* which you used when you create the menu. You can use directly the ID like ID_MYCOMMAND instead, is the same...

Re: Zip files problem and general streams questions
To modify an existing archive, write a new copy of the archive to a new file, making any necessary changes along the way and transferring any unchanged entries using CopyEntry().
Please read documentation carefully, in-place modification is not supported.

Re: how to set Dialog Caption
I think he means "dialog title". However, there is no way to align the text into different positions, unless you calculate window size, character width anf fill with empty spaces.

Re: wxWindows always on top
If there is no wxWidgets way to do it, get the native GTK handle and use it directly (not tested):

If you are interested, I can provide you a windows solution too.
