organized into variables for toolkits, platforms and libraries. The variables
come in pairs: there's always FOO_SRC for source files and FOO_HDR for header
files. Platform or toolkit specific files are grouped together in variable
-with platform or tookit name in them, e.g. BASE_WIN32_SRC, BASE_UNIX_SRC,
+with platform or toolkit name in them, e.g. BASE_WIN32_SRC, BASE_UNIX_SRC,
GTK_SRC, MOTIF_SRC.
Note: A side effect of this toolkit-centric organization is that one file may

+ be present several times in files.bkl in different contexts.
When you are adding a file, you must put it into appropriate variable. This is
easy if you are adding the file to library that is always built from same
Make sure to add <wx-lib> statements for all libraries from multilib build
that are required by the sample.

5. Adding contrib library
b) Modify bakefile system in build/bakefiles/ to recognize wxFoo:
* Add 'foo' to MAIN_LIBS and LIBS_NOGUI or LIBS_GUI (depending on whether
the library depends on wxCore or not) to wxwin.py file.
- * Add the library to DEPS_TABLE in wxwin.py
+ * Add extra libraries needed by wxFoo (if any) to EXTRALIBS in wxwin.py
* Add WXLIB_FOO definition to common.bkl (into the "Names of component
libraries" section). It looks like this:
<set var="WXLIB_FOO">
<if cond="MONOLITHIC=='0'">$(mk.evalExpr(wxwin.mkLibName('foo')))</if>
</set>
-c) Add files to monolithic build: it's enough to add FOO_SRC to MONOLIB_GUI_SRC
- or MONOLIB_SRC, depending on whether wxFoo uses GUI or not.
+c) Modify monolithic.bkl to add files to monolithic build: it's enough to add
+ FOO_SRC to MONOLIB_GUI_SRC or MONOLIB_SRC, depending on whether wxFoo uses
+ GUI or not.
-d) Add files to multilib build: add foolib and foodll targets. Don't use
- wxBase targets as the template, use e.g. wxXML or wxHTML. Make sure
- WXMAKINGDLL_FOO is defined in foodll.

+ targets. Don't use wxBase targets as the template, use e.g. wxXML or wxHTML.
+ Make sure WXMAKINGDLL_FOO is defined in foodll.
e) Regenerate all makefiles (don't forget to run autoconf)
the library and needed linker flags:
* Add "foo" to either CORE_BASE_LIBS or CORE_GUI_LIBS in configure.in so
that wxFoo is not treated as contrib library in monolithic build.
- * If wxFoo links against additional libraries, add neccessary linker
+ * If wxFoo links against additional libraries, add necessary linker
flags and libraries to ldflags_foo and ldlibs_foo variables in
wx-config.in (both are optional).

i) Add information about wxFoo to the manual ("Libraries list" section
- in libs.tex).

+j) Also please add 4 #pragma comment(lib, "foo") (for Unicode/ANSI
