I had a stand alone Scintilla that use: SciLexer.dll
my .exe with WinGUI is 2611Kb (468Kb compressed)

a small wxWidgets .exe is 7571Kb (3048Kb compressed)
Is it possible to have a standalone .dll
and the .exe only include the call to the .dll?

There are several different ways to build wxWidgets : monolithic DLL, multiple DLLS, statically.

wxMax supports the static build variant of wxWidgets.

Changing it to work with a different variant is probably non-trivial.

I always wondered what would be the size of wxMax executable file if wx library was built without debug information, and if it would be feasible to do different builds for release and debug.

Is there a version of wxMax multiple DLLS, statically already done?
Or I need to compile wxWidgets MySelf? https://wiki.wxwidgets.org/Compiling_wxWidgets_with_MinGW

is probably non-trivial.

Sound like it never been done?
