-Starting from version 2.5.0 wxWindows can be built either as a single large
+wxWidgets can be built either as a single large
library (this is called the {\it monolithic build}) or as several smaller
libraries ({\it multilib build}). Multilib build is the default.
-wxWindows library is divided into libraries briefly described below. This
+wxWidgets library is divided into libraries briefly described below. This
diagram show dependencies between them:
\begin{center}
{\large {\bf wxBase}}
-Every wxWindows application must link against this library. It contains
-mandatory classes that any wxWindows code depends on (e.g.
-\helpref{wxString}{wxstring}) and portability classes that abstract
+Every wxWidgets application must link against this library. It contains
+mandatory classes that any wxWidgets code depends on (e.g.
+ \helpref{wxString}{wxstring}) and portability classes that abstract
differences between platforms. wxBase can be used to develop console mode
applications, it does not require any GUI libraries or running X Window System
on Unix.
+{\large {\bf wxCore}}
+
+Basic GUI classes such as GDI classes or controls are in this library. All
+wxWidgets GUI applications must link against this library, only console mode
+applications don't.
+
+{\large {\bf wxAui}}
+
+This contains the Advanced User Interface docking library.
+
+Requires wxHTML, wxAdvanced, wxCore, wxBase, wxXML.
+
{\large {\bf wxNet}}
Classes for network access:
\begin{itemize}
\item{ wxSocket classes (\helpref{wxSocketClient}{wxsocketclient},
- \helpref{wxSocketServer}{wxsocketserver} and related classes) }
+ \helpref{wxSocketServer}{wxsocketserver} and related classes) }
\item{ \helpref{wxSocketOutputStream}{wxsocketoutputstream} and
- \helpref{wxSocketInputStream}{wxsocketinputstream} }
+ \helpref{wxSocketInputStream}{wxsocketinputstream} }
\item{ sockets-based IPC classes (\helpref{wxTCPServer}{wxddeserver},
- \helpref{wxTCPClient}{wxddeclient} and
- \helpref{wxTCPConnection}{wxddeconnection}) }
+ \helpref{wxTCPClient}{wxddeclient} and

\item{ \helpref{wxURL}{wxurl} }
\item{ wxInternetFSHandler (a \helpref{wxFileSystem handler}{fs}) }
-Requires wxBase.
\end{itemize}
-{\large {\bf wxXML}}
-
-This library contains simple classes for parsing XML documents. Note that
-their API {\em will} change in the future and backward
-compatibility will not be preserved. Use of this library in your applications
-is not recommended, it is only meant for use by XML resources system. Future
-versions of wxWindows will contain new XML handling classes with DOM-like API.
Requires wxBase.
-{\large {\bf wxCore}}
+{\large {\bf wxRichText}}
-Basic GUI classes such as GDI classes or controls are in this library. All
-wxWindows GUI applications must link against this library, only console mode
-applications don't.
+This contains generic rich text control functionality.
+
+Requires wxAdvanced, wxHTML, wxCore, wxXML, wxBase.

+
{\large {\bf wxGL}}
This library contains \helpref{wxGLCanvas}{wxglcanvas} class for integrating
-OpenGL library with wxWindows. Unlike all other, this library is {\em not}
-part of the monolithic library, it is always built as separate library.
