Hi,
I did
cvs update -r WX_2_4_2
wxWindows built fine.
But for the wxPython part:
1. First I had to comment out
      'wx.tools',
      'wx.tools.XRCed',
   from the packages array.
2. then I get this compiler error.

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\BIN\cl.exe /c /nologo /Ox /MD
/W3 /GX
/DNDEBUG -DWIN32 -D__WIN32__ -D_WINDOWS -D__WINDOWS__ -DWINVER=0x0400 -D__WI

        No user-defined-conversion operator available that can perform this
conversion, or the operator cannot be called

Any hint ?

Thanks ,

Try using the current CVS for the WX_2_4_BRANCH instead. There have been a number of changes for wxPython since the WX_2_4_2 tag was made. I should also be adding a new tag soon (probably today) when I make the first wxPython 2.4.2.x release.
