I cant' say anything about wx's IPC. But for boost, it's crap. At least on windows. The Mutexes don't use WinAPI, instead they create it's own File-Based implementation (WinAPI = Kernel-Objects). If your Program crashes the files won't be deleted. Next time your Programm is launched the mutex can't ...

JDBC is Java's couterpart of ODBC in C. It's a generic, database independet API. But there are C++ APIs too (don't know any, it's been some years since I looked. I rolled my own for DB2, because I wanted to use every trick to get the best performance out of DB2. No generic API for me, thanks). I rem...

I don't think it's such big of a task. Just wraping every wxClass into a namespace can be done in a couple of hours. I think the real issue here is backward compatibility. Namespaces are just thre begin. Getting rid of the macros is a much bigger task. And it breaks hundreds (if not thousands) of Pr...

Because wxWidgets is Oooold. And for the developers of wx backwardscompatibility is more important than some fancy new language features. BTW: There is a wxEvtHandler::Connect. Another BTW: Why are you using sigc::mem_fun, when there is TR1::bind(), wich will also be in the next C++ standard? Yeah, ...

Since VS 2005 Microsoft did some crappy stuff with it's CRT. You need the manifests vor the DLLs. Unless the manifest from your binary matches the manifest from the dll's, they are not loaded. Also, with VS2008 and Fixpack 1, the Compiler itself writes the wrong manifest. Points to the Dlls without ...

Hmmm, I'm using Windows7 for some weeks now and never had drawing any problems. Not with my own (wxWidgets-)apps nor any other app. There is of course a difference in Aeoro. It has realtime thumbs as a mouseover for the tasklist (okay, that's not really new, it's a feature since Vista). These thumbn...

Where to find your setup.h depends on your Plattform. My is here: include/wx/msw/setup.h It's all documented direcly in that file. The lines you have to change are wxUSE_STD_STRING and (don't know if this is even neccesary for std::string to work, I have my set to 1 because it's 2009 and not 1995) w...
