WX_DECLARE_LIST usage

[Chad Wagner]

Thanks for the quick response, unfortunately either I was half asleep  
when I posted or I'm already showing my newbieness.  You're right,  
the WX_DEFINE_LIST looks fine to me as well, what I meant to say is  
that WX_DECLARE_LIST is the culprit.

In list.h WX_DECLARE_LIST leads to WX_DECLARE_LIST_XO or  
WX_DECLARE_LIST_4 (depending on wxUSE_STL), in either case resulting  
in a class declaration without the terminating semicolon, which is  
what my compiler does not like.  For example, my .h file might look  
like this:

class MyControl : public wxControl
{
	DECLARE_CLASS(MyControl)
public:
	MyControl();
	virtual ~MyControl() {}
	// etc
};
WX_DECLARE_LIST(MyControl, MyControlList);

For now I will include the semicolon explicitly, and certainly can  
live with it.  I am just trying to get my head around all this wx  
macro stuff.

Thanks,
Chad
