自從2.5.0開始，wxWidgets既可以編譯成單一的代碼庫這種編譯方式被稱為：monolithic），或者編譯為一些多個小的代碼庫這種編譯方式被稱為multilib），Multilib是默認的編譯方式。
wxWidgets被劃分成多個代碼庫的形式，簡要概述如下，這張圖標展示了他們之間的依賴關系：
wxAui
它包含了高級的用戶界面庫，如控件停靠等。
wxBase
每一個wxWidgets應用程序必須連接這個代碼庫。他包含了wxWidgets依賴的最基礎的代碼庫如: wxString）,也包含了在多個平台之間可移植的抽象定義。wxBase可以被用來開發控制台程序，它並不依賴任何GUI庫，也不需要在UNIX平台上運行X-Window系統。
wxNet
網絡訪問控制:
- wxSocket 類(wxSocketClient, wxSocketServer and 相關類)
- wxSocketOutputStream 和 wxSocketInputStream
- 基於Sockets的IPC類(wxTCPServer, wxTCPClient和wxTCPConnection)
- wxURL
- wxInternetFSHandler (一個wxFileSystem輔助類)
- 依賴wxBase.
wxRichText
他包含了通用的RichText控件和相關功能。
wxXML
它包含解析XML文檔的一些簡單類。需要注意的是，這些API接口在將來會被改變，並且也不會提供向後兼容性。所以不推薦在你的程序中使用這些類，它僅僅被XML resources system使用。WxWidgets將來的版本會包含新的DOM-like API 的XML處理類。
信賴於wxBase.
wxCore
基礎的GUI類庫，如GDI類和控件庫。 所有的wxWidgets GUI應用程序都需要連接此類庫，除非控制台程序。
wxAdvanced
高級GUI控件庫：
- wxBufferedDC
- wxCalendarCtrl
- wxGrid classes
- wxJoystick
- wxLayoutAlgorithm
- wxSplashScreen
- wxTaskBarIcon
- wxSound
- wxWizard
- wxSashLayoutWindow
- wxSashWindow
依賴於wxCore和wxBase.
wxMedia
和多媒體有關系的一些類。當前，這個類庫中只包含wxMediaCtrl，但是在將來會加進更多的類。
依賴wxCore和wxBase.
wxGL
這個類庫包含用戶整合 OpenGL 和 wxWidgets的wxGLCanvas類。與其他的類庫包不同，這個類庫不能作為單一代碼包的一部分。它總是被單獨編譯。
依賴wxCore 和 wxBase.
wxHTML
它包含一個簡單的HTML展示器和一些HTML呈現類。如wxHtmlHelpController, wxBestHelpController 和 wxHtmlListBox.
依賴於 wxCore 和 wxBase.
wxODBC
關於數據庫的一些類。
依賴 wxBase.
wxQA
這個類庫包包含一些擴展的質量保障附加類。當前僅包含wxDebugReport類及其相關類。但是將來會添加更多的類.
依賴於 wxCore, wxBase 和 wxXML.
wxDbGrid
wxDbGridTableBase類是wxGrid 和 wxDbTable的功能組合類.
依賴於 wxODBC 和 wxAdvanced.
wxXRC
這個類庫包包含wxXmlResource類，它提供了對XRC格式的XML 資源文件的讀寫訪問。
依賴於 wxXML, wxCore, wxAdvanced 和 wxHTML.

wxWidgets Libraries list
Starting from version
2.5.0 wxWidgets can be built either as a single large library (this is called the
monolithic build) or as several smaller libraries (
multilib build). Multilib build is the default.
wxWidgets library is divided into libraries briefly described below. This diagram show dependencies between them:
wxAui
This contains the Advanced User Interface docking library.
wxBase
Every wxWidgets application must link against this library. It contains mandatory classes that any wxWidgets code depends on (e.g. wxString) and portability classes that abstract differences between platforms. wxBase can be used to develop console mode applications, it does not require any GUI libraries or running X Window System on Unix.
wxNet
Classes for network access:
- wxSocket classes (wxSocketClient, wxSocketServer and related classes)
- wxSocketOutputStream and wxSocketInputStream
- sockets-based IPC classes (wxTCPServer, wxTCPClient and wxTCPConnection)
- wxURL
- wxInternetFSHandler (a wxFileSystem handler) Requires wxBase.
wxRichText
This contains generic rich text control functionality.
wxXML
This library contains simple classes for parsing XML documents. Note that their API
will change in the future and backward compatibility will not be preserved. Use of this library in your applications is not recommended, it is only meant for use by XML resources system. Future versions of wxWidgets will contain new XML handling classes with DOM-like API. Requires wxBase.
wxCore
Basic GUI classes such as GDI classes or controls are in this library. All wxWidgets GUI applications must link against this library, only console mode applications don't.
wxAdvanced
Advanced or rarely used GUI classes:
- wxBufferedDC
- wxCalendarCtrl
- wxGrid classes
- wxJoystick
- wxLayoutAlgorithm
- wxSplashScreen
- wxTaskBarIcon
- wxSound
- wxWizard
- wxSashLayoutWindow
- wxSashWindow
Requires wxCore and wxBase.
wxMedia
Miscellaneous classes related to multimedia. Currently this library only contains wxMediaCtrl but more classes will be added in the future.
Requires wxCore and wxBase.
wxGL
This library contains wxGLCanvas class for integrating OpenGL library with wxWidgets. Unlike all others, this library is
not part of the monolithic library, it is always built as separate library. Requires wxCore and wxBase.
wxHTML
Simple HTML renderer and other HTML rendering classes are contained in this library, as well as wxHtmlHelpController, wxBestHelpController and wxHtmlListBox. Requires wxCore and wxBase.
wxODBC
Database classes. Requires wxBase.
wxQA
This is the library containing extra classes for quality assurance. Currently it only contains wxDebugReport and related classes, but more will be added to it in the future.
Requires wxCore, wxBase and wxXML.
wxDbGrid
wxDbGridTableBase class which combines wxGrid and wxDbTable. Requires wxODBC and wxAdvanced.
wxXRC
This library contains wxXmlResource class that provides access to XML resource files in XRC format. Requires wxXML, wxCore, wxAdvanced and wxHTML.
