13wxWidgets can be built either as a single large library (this is called a
14<em>monolithic build</em>) or as several smaller libraries
15(<em>multilib build</em>). Multilib build is the default.
16
17wxWidgets library is divided into libraries briefly described below. This
de2b67e6 18diagram shows the dependencies between them:

67Every wxWidgets application must link against this library. It contains
68mandatory classes that any wxWidgets code depends on (e.g. wxString) and
69portability classes that abstract differences between platforms. wxBase can be
70used to develop console mode applications, it does not require any GUI
71libraries or running X Window System on Unix.
