>Summary: [2.8.4] XTI compilation failure, MingW

Initial Comment:
Version 2.8.4, compiler using MingW MSYS (GCC 3.4.2) configure under Windows XP.

First problem: in wx/object.h, class wxDynamicObject, function GetClassInfo the const_cast is incorrect and needs to be removed (const cast can only add or remove const, not change type).

Second problem: compilation error

I don't think you should spend time trying to use wxUSE_EXTENDED_RTTI in
2.8, it's unfinished there and will change during the summar as
finishing/improving it is one of the GSoC tasks. So please try to use it in
the SOC2007_XTI branch of the current cvs.
