The code is looking for the #define of wxUSE_ODBC (at line 3 of wxc/src/db.cpp). 2. While I believe this (wxUSE_ODBC) should be defined, I'm hypothesizing that it isn't set anywhere (e.g., in a configuration file or an earlier include). 3. If wxUSE_ODBC isn't defined, then wx/db.h will NOT be included. Instead stub definitions of wxDb, wxDbColInf, wxDbInf, and wxDbTableInf will be used. 4. Since these stub definitions don't have and members, any attempt to reference members of these classes will fail. 5. It appears to me that this is what is happening in the error messages shown above. 6. I don't know where the definition of wxUSE_ODBC _should_be_ coming from, if my hypotheses are correct, so I don't have a solution at present.

I contacted the wxhaskell-users at sourceforge mailing list with the above bug description. Here is the reply I received: "Yes, it is a bug. Thanks for your detailed analysis. I will try to fix it by adding some dummy members." "Thanks -- Daan Leijen."
I think this is the same issue as bug #110932. Bascially wxHaskell doesn't work with wxGTK that has been built with odbc (or indeed unicode) support. I'm going to change the wxhaskell ebuilds to require wxGTK to be built with USE="-odbc -unicode".
*** Bug 110932 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
I've made the wxhaskell ebuilds check to see if wxGTK was built with odbc and if so give a helpful error message. If there are any patches from upstream to get wxHaskell to work with wxGTK built with odbc then we can look again at this issue. So unless someone thinks there's any more we can do now I'm closing this bug.
