Prev: application not finalizing when top window closes

I used to program my GUI in Python with wxPython and just start playing
wxWidgets in C++ lately (on Windows with mingw).
However, I am still unable to create my button with the look and feel as in
wxPython, please take a look at my screenshot at:
http://memyselfandtaco.blogspot.com/2008/04/button-not-showing-correctly.html
I created the buttons in wxWidgets and wxPython with the following lines.
The codes are virtually identical, but the look and feel differs somehow.

wxWidgets:
cancelButton = new wxButton(panel, (wxWindowID)ID_CANCEL_BUTTON,
wxT("Cancel"), wxDefaultPosition, wxDefaultSize, wxBU_EXACTFIT);

wxPython:
ctrlButton = wx.Button(parent=self, id=-1, label=label.decode('utf-8'),
style=wx.BU_EXACTFIT)

Other than style, is there any other trick to configure a window's
appearance?
Any help is appreciated.

One uses the manifest and hence has the native XP look, the other one does
not. If you use a recent wx version, manifest should be automatically
included provided you include wx/msw/wx.rc in your resource file. If you
don't know about the resource files and such, looking at the minimal sample
make/project files should help.
