+Starting from version 2.5.0 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.

+wxWidgets library is divided into libraries briefly described below. This
diagram show dependencies between them:

+{\large {\bf wxAui}}
+
+This contains the Advanced User Interface docking library.

-Every wxWindows 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.

Requires wxBase.

+{\large {\bf wxRichText}}
+
+This contains generic rich text control functionality.
+
{\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.

-{\large {\bf wxODBC}}
-
-\helpref{Database classes}{odbcoverview}. Requires
-wxBase, wxCore and wxAdvanced.

{\large {\bf wxCore}}
Basic GUI classes such as GDI classes or controls are in this library. All

{\large {\bf wxGL}}
This library contains \helpref{wxGLCanvas}{wxglcanvas} class for integrating
-OpenGL library with wxWindows. Unlike all other, this library is {\em not}
