    +To avoid problems, you must use the same one for all +components of your project. wxWindows uses multithread safe DLL version of the +CRT which is a good choice but may be problematic when distributing your +applications if you don't include the CRT DLL in your installation -- in this +case you may decide to switch to using a static CRT version. If you build with +wxUSE_THREADS == 0 you may also use the non MT-safe version as it is +slightly smaller and faster. +
