I had all of the wxHaskell programs installed and working fine, but now with an update to Haskell Platform and thus also ghci, I need to upgrade all of them (the previously working programs fail) requiring an update for the underlying wxWidgets from 2.8 to 2.9 versions. I downloaded and built wxWidgets 2.9, since the current wxHaskell libraries require it (I couldn't find any existing binaries online). The compile seemed to be successful, but when I then try to use it from the wxHaskell programs I get an error that I don't know how to fix: C: >cabal install wx Resolving dependencies...

Are you sure that you installed wxWidgets 2.9 and didn't just compile it from source? It looks like cabal can't find the wxWidgets libraries on your system. Best regards, Heinrich Apfelmus -- http://apfelmus.nfshost.com
Is your wx-config working ?
You can try: *wx-config –help*
If not, try with another, you can use these ones:
- download from https://sites.google.com/site/wxconfig/sourcecode
and compile with g++ wx-config.cpp -o wx-config.exe
- or download directly the .exe from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/wxhaskell/files/wx-config-win/

Thanks, yes - it seems good, it responds with a help menu message.
