When compiling samples\debugrpt, get these result:

=========================================

Change the settings:

MONOLITHIC # 1 SHARED1 USE_QA # 1 BUILD release

to these:

MONOLITHIC # 0 SHARED1 USE_QA # 1 BUILD release

and compile wxwidgets and samples\debugrpt again, it
seems no problem.

Of couse, the wxHandleFatalExceptions() seem not
woking with MingW either. So I delete it when I compile
samples\debugrpt.

This probably should've been fixed a long time ago.

I don't understand the last comment but I'm not sure if it was fixed. Have you tried building with MONOLITHIC=1 to test it?

Anyhow, this is not very important considering that wxDebugReport is pretty useless without wxUSE_STACKWALKER and wxUSE_CRASHREPORT both of which are unavailable with MinGW.

Vadim,
Are you saying you can't use wxDebugReport at all or it's possible but it won't give you much?

It's (probably -- never tried it myself) possible but it's not useful.

Hello last week I send 2 emails to list that I ported with succes a copy of wxStackWalker for mingw64 and mingw, as before wxStackWalker for msvc64

Im still banned on list.
No one responded my question if You are interested in enhancing wxStackWalker in Your source (becouse i work on local modification of it a template instead of polimorphism)

Can you make a patch and attach it to this ticket?
The patch should be made against the SVN TRUNK and you need to read the article about patches if you never done this before.

This way it will be included in the next release of wxWidgets and other people will benefit from it.

Your messages were flagged as possible spam by Groups and were waiting for moderation. Unfortunately the notifications of waiting messages are sometimes also marked as spam by our own local spam filters (for the same reasons presumably) and so we don't see them and so the messages wait for a while.

@artubac,
Is it still you plan to submit a patch for this feature?
