wxFormBuilder

We are proud to announce another release candidate of wxFormBuilder v3.0. We really appreciate all the users that have been reporting bugs, so please continue. Please test this release and post any problems or concerns on the forum. wxFormBuilder is now feature frozen until the official release comes out. Only bug fixes will be added. This release focuses on bug fixes. Here are the changes:
ChangeLog:

02/01/2008 Version 3.00.54 (RC6)
* FS#308 - Bugs in non-interactive (-g) mode
Note: stderr is not normally available on Windows for GUI apps. If -g is used, all logging goes to stderr and debug output. Either start the process with a pipe for stderr (most IDEs will do this for you), or use a Debug Viewer to watch the output.
* FS#311 - wxFB 3.0 RC5 still generating incorrect wxMenu(item) code

We are proud to announce the first official article published about wxFormBuilder in a magazine. The Spanish Edition of Linux Magazine has been kind enough to publish an article written by, José Antonio Hurtado, the project’s creator. It’s written in Spanish and it will be available for free download in a few months. You can find details about the article here:

Guilherme Flach has been kind enough to help us fix our code so that it compiles on Mac OS X. He compiled a binary and posted it for us to distribute. You can find it on the Downloads page.

We are very excited about this, we would love to begin officially supporting Mac. We just need volunteers to help with testing/building on Mac. If anyone is interested, please contact us.
You can find more discussion about this build on the forum.
