WxWidgets 2.7 CVS and VC++ 2005 EE

Most times when I am building applications with WxWidgets I use latest CVS to keep up with the times. Today I ran into a few snags that I thought I would pass along.

1. wx_dll.dsw no longer builds debug lib files. The easy solution is to use wx.dsw to build your static wx libraries

2. There is no longer a requirement for odbc32.lib, which makes it easier since Microsoft not longer distributes it with the Windows XP SP2 PSDK. So you can just remove it from your library dependencies under the project settings.

And somehow I can compile Debug + Release configurations for all wx projects in less then 10 minutes. It just keeps getting better and better.

Anyway that is all for now. If there are any other snags I will pass them along.
