I was getting the following error compiling erlang 13B02 on MacOS Leopard:

Thanks to the Google translation of a page in Japanese on javaeye.com (link) I figured out I had to rebuild wxWidgets (even though version 2.8 already seems installed in Leopard). Here's the nub of it:

• Download wxWidgets 2.8.x, untar to a directory of your choice
• cd into the un-tarred directory and make a build dir (eg. mkdir MYBUILD)
• cd into that new directory and build a static install into a destination of your choice (I put it in /opt/wxWidgets28):
  ../configure --with-opengl --enable-unicode --enable-graphics_ctx --enable-gnomeprint --disable-shared --prefix=/opt/wxWidgets28
  make
  sudo make install
  cd contrib/src/stc
  make
  sudo make install
• Now you can build OTP/Erlang properly, but make sure the new wx-config is first in your path, eg:
  PATH=/opt/wxWidgets28/bin:$PATH ./configure ....

It's worth buying, but now you can also get a free PDF thanks to the generosity of the author, Mark Jason Dominus:

Chris Suter will be giving a talk on Blocks and perhaps some other shiny things he learnt at WWDC. It promises to be a great topic so come and heckle! There are a few new people coming so please be welcoming :)

As always, bring along any Mac related projects you want to show off
or ask for advice on.

IMPORTANT! Room has changed.

It will now be in CB02.05.32.

That's Building 2, Level 5, Room 32. You can access building 2 via the main entrance. This will be our room for the rest of the year.
