If you want to use Visual C++ Express Edition, you must install Microsoft Platform SDK before building wxWidgets or wxHaskell.

    After configuration, first go the $wxhaskell/wxc directory. Here, you need to adapt the wxc-version.dsp project to reference the correct wxWidgets directory. Open the .dsp file in an editor and replace all occurrences of "..\..\wxWindows-2.4.2" (or "..\..\wxWindows-2.5.1") or by the installed wxWidgets directory, i.e. $wxwin. +

    After configuration, first run make command to generate stc_gen.* files.

    Make will stop by following error.
