on the basis of the example in the wxWidget book I set up a sngle-selection
wxListbox with English, French and Hungarian elements, and the event handler
below:

void PixName::OnListbox1Selected( wxCommandEvent& event )
{
if (m_locale != NULL) delete m_locale;

int Rank = lb_Languages->GetSelection();

switch(Rank)
{
case 0: // English
m_locale = NULL;
break;
case 1: // French
m_locale = new wxLocale(wxLANGUAGE_FRENCH);
m_locale->AddCatalogLookupPathPrefix(ApplicationPath);
m_locale->AddCatalog(wxT("PixName3"));
break;
case 2: // Hungarian
m_locale = new wxLocale(wxLANGUAGE_HUNGARIAN);
m_locale->AddCatalogLookupPathPrefix(ApplicationPath);
m_locale->AddCatalog(wxT("PixName3"));
break;
}

SwitchLanguage(); // refreshes the displayed language elements
}

There are 'fr' and 'hu' folders at the executable level.

This setup works fine under Vista.

However, under Linux, switching back and forth works fine between English
and French, but trying to switch to Hungarian produces "Cannot set locale to
'hu-HU'."

Any ideas?

wxWidgets 2.8.7, GCC

System setup issue.

Make sure to properly generate the hu-HU locale definitions.

On Debian-based systems, this can mean trying something like
dpkg-reconfigure localeconf
dpkg-reconfigure locales
localedef ...

I'd suggest querying your favourite distribution forum about this.

HTH,
