Re: Compilation issues after updating wxWidgets via vcpkg

Sure, I can help.

First, let's make sure I understand your build environment.  From the
error message you posted, it looks like you're using MSVC on Windows,
correct?

When using wxWidgets from vcpkg, you should not have your own setup.h,
but you should be using the one installed by vcpkg.

If, for some reason, you need a customized build of wxWidgets and
still want to use vcpkg mechanisms with your own customizations, that
is also possible by using an "overlay port".  However, I would try
using the one provided by vcpkg first to avoid the extra work.

I recently had a new project using wxWidgets from vcpkg:
<https://github.com/LegalizeAdulthood/odeint-example>
There are working builds for Windows, macOS and linux for that:
<https://github.com/LegalizeAdulthood/odeint-example/actions>

In that example, I used vcpkg as a git submodule checked out at the
tag 2025.09.17.  (I tend to checkout vcpkg at specific tags because
those are considered "stable" versions.)  That gave me wxWidgets 3.3.1.
