Before you use a nightly make sure you understand how it works.

PLEASE BACKUP YOUR EXISTING DEFAULT.CONF !!!
So in case you want to switch back to the regular nightly, then you can restore your default.conf.

THIS IS A SPECIAL TEST BUILD OF REFACTORINGS CARRIED OUT ON THE XML COMPILER BRANCH IN OUR SVN.
FOCUS IS ON IMPROVED COMPILER SETTINGS THROUGH INDEPENDENT XML FILES INSTEAD OF THE BIG DEFAULT.CONF.

Give your feedback on this version only in this thread, don't mix it with the regular nightly please. If you feel it is however not
related to the compiler functionality itself, then it might be better to report it int the corresponding regular nightly build thread.

Once we don't have any blockers on this version, we will merge the changes into trunk and it will be part of the regular nightlies.

Fedora packages for fc 16, 17and 18 (32 and 64 bit) can be found in my repo.
To automatic install the repo install http://rpm.jenslody.de/fedora-jenslody.de-0.1-2.fc17.noarch.rpm and enable the jenslody.de-xml repo.

Fine work, but wouldn't it be a good idea to create a new release before starting a new branch.

No, because it will stop the progress. Using a branch allows us to develop the two separately.

Well that's what we have in mind. The next release will most likely not include this yet, but the release afterwards will.

FYI: I tried passing the option "-p=xml_deft" to a self Compiled XML Compiler branch and it crashed because the personality file did not exist.
Once I copied "default.conf" to  "xml_deft.conf" the passed option worked.

Note: I am doing wxWidgets 2.9 based CB builds using wxWidgets trunk using C++ option -std=gnu++11; in case that makes a difference.

Thanks for the report.  I will see if I can reproduce the issue.

What compiler did you use?
Does it crash immediately on launch, or after some loading?
If you pass the same options to a trunk build (that is also built with wx29 and -std=gnu++11), does the same crash occur?

I have not yet had time to do more testing.
I compile wxWidgets 2.9 last night; should have time to work on it in a few days.


Patch I applied to get CB to compile with wxWidgets 2.9 trunk; not sure if the patch is the best solution.
Turns out that in wxWidgets 2.9 the header wx/xrc/xmlres.h no longer includes two other headers as a side effect.
These being "wx/xml/xml.h" and "wx/control.h" (the control.h is via the header wx/animate.h included by xmlres.h ).

I think this portion makes sense.

I have not yet been able to reproduce this crash... are you still experiencing it?
