Hi to all,  
i’ve compiled wxWidgets with this options:

./configure --enable-optimise --enable-stl --enable-unicode  
–disable-threads --enable-static --with-opengl --disable-shared  
–enable-monolithic --disable-debug --with-libjpeg=builtin  
–with-libpng=builtin --with-zlib=builtin --enable-graphics\_ctx  
–enable-mediactrl --enable-unicode --with-libtiff=builtin  
–with-expat=builtin --enable-gui -enable-xrc --enable-mdi --enable-gif  
–enable-pcx --enable-iff --enable-png --enable-xpm

and also compiled StyledTextCtrl .

My system is :  
Windows xp sp3  
ruby 1.9.1p243 (2009-07-16 revision 24175) [i386-mingw32]  
gcc.exe 3.4.5  
swig.exe 1.3.38  
rake 0.8.7

when compiled wxruby (from svn), i’ve recived this error:

c:\msys\MinGW\bin…\lib\gcc\mingw32\3.4.5…\mingw32\bin\ld.exe:  
warning: auto-importing has been activated without --enable-auto-import  
spe  
cified on the command line.  
This should work unless it involves constant data structures referencing  
symbols from auto-imported DLLs.  
C:\msys\1.0\src\wxWidgets-2.8.10/lib/libwx\_mswu-2.8.a(monolib\_graphcmn.o):graphcmn.cpp:(.text+0x3374):

[SOLVED]

IF i compile wxWidgests 2.8.10 i’ve this error:  
C:\msys\1.0\src\wxWidgets-2.8.10/lib/libwx\_mswu-2.8.a(monolib\_graphcmn.o):graphcmn.cpp:(.text+0x3374):  
undefined reference to `wxGraphicsRenderer::CreateBitmap(wxBitmap  
const&)’

If i compile with wxWidgets 2.8.9 WORK !!!

this is the gem :  
svn version: 2107  
[http://www.waydotnet.com/ruby/wxruby-ruby19-2.0.1.svn-x86-mingw32.gem](http://www.waydotnet.com/ruby/wxruby-ruby19-2.0.1.svn-x86-mingw32.gem)

Only problem when install without --no-rdoc
