wxWidgets 3.1.5 has not built-in regex support.

wxWidgets 3.1.5 has not built-in regex support.

[Carlo B.]

Hello,
I'm trying to build an application (Codelite) with the recently
released wxWidgets 3.1.5 package, but I'm getting an error because
wxRE_ADVANCED is undefined.
I suspect that this release has been compiled without the built-in regex engine.
Is it possible to fix this this issue?
Thank you very much.

Sincerely.

Hmm, interesting. I thought this happened before and I fixed it?

No matter, I'll rebuild soon and release another test package, as other 
things need fixing. In the meantime, hopefully you can use the 3.0.x 
package, as I believe I fixed this problem in that build.

NB: Please copy emails to me as well as to the list for this - otherwise 
there is a chance I might not see them. I'm the exception to the rule 
here, please don't do this for other people unless they ask.

Also, please note, this is a test package, and is known to have issues 
eg the unit tests don't pass (or even build) for instance. And it 
doesn't yet build on the CI tool. You probably shouldn't be building 
other things with this package yet, if you have the choice - please use 
the older wxWidgets-3.0 package. I have a commercial product that uses 
that package so I know it is robust and reliable.
