This is a more hackish but more compatible solution to the problem of
data sent using wxIPC_UTF8TEXT format being simply lost when using DDE
for IPC classes. We must use CF_TEXT for the DDE to pass our data, but
we can try to decode it as UTF-8 in the client and assume it was sent in
this format if it worked. This obviously suffers from false positives as
any ASCII string will still be assumed to be UTF-8, but there shouldn't
be any real harm coming from this.
This change also makes sending data in wxIPC_UTF{16,32}TEXT formats work
as well by converting it to UTF-8.
Update the sample to call Advise() with both wxIPC_UTF{8,16}TEXT formats
and remove the now unnecessary wxDDEConnection::m_dataType member.
Closes#17900.
This reverts commit c657fd3d61 because
changing the format of DDE advise requests/replies is not a good idea:
other applications (those using previous versions of wxWidgets or even
not using wxWidgets at all) may rely on getting data in real CF_TEXT
format rather than in one of text formats preceded by the extra byte
containing the actual format and the previous commit would have silently
broken this.
Another fix for #17900 will be implemented instead.
wxIPC API doesn't map well onto DDE, as we don't have wxIPCFormat
parameter in StartAdvise() but do allow specifying the format when
calling Advise() itself, whereas DDE requires specifying the format when
establishing the advise loop and the data always must use this format
later.
Because of this, we have to pass the actual format with the data itself
instead of relying on DDE formats support. This has the advantage of
allowing wxIPC_UTF8TEXT to work, while previously it didn't and
couldn't, as DDE only supports the standard (or custom, but registered)
clipboard formats and it wasn't one of them. Of course, this also has a
disadvantage of having to make another copy of the data, but this seems
unavoidable.
This change allow Advise() overload taking wxString to work, including
for non-ASCII strings, as shown by the update to the IPC sample. It also
makes wxDDEConnection::m_dataType unnecessary, as we must always use the
format passed to DDE callback anyhow when handling XTYP_ADVREQ.
Closes#17900.
The latest changes to wxTranslations::AddCatalog() behaviour were not
backwards-compatible and also had other problem, so revert them for now,
even if this means that #18227 has to be reopened.
This is a combination of the following commits:
----
Revert "Fix regression in wxTranslations::AddCatalog()"
This reverts commit 14e905858d.
See #18297.
----
Revert "Fix crash in translations code when no translations are found"
This reverts commit 80904d1bc7.
See #18299.
----
Revert "Rename new wxTranslations method to GetAcceptableTranslations()"
This reverts commit 20b02d6169.
----
Revert "Load catalogs for all preferred languages, if they exist"
This reverts commit 2d784da2ee.
----
Revert "Allow getting all usable translations languages"
This reverts commit 5d08e404c7.
----
See #18227, #18300.
Closes#18302.
Compute the best size of the notebook, taking into account all the
different layout possibilities, and add a test checking that this works
as expected.
Closes https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxWidgets/pull/1085
Do load the catalog corresponding to the language of "msgid" strings in
the source code, only skip the languages strictly less preferred than
it.
This avoids incompatibilities with pre-3.1.2 behaviour and avoids
breaking existing applications relying on the old behaviour.
Closes https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxWidgets/pull/1081Closes#18297.
Prompting for user name and password is a common task.
At least windows provides these dialogs native but this
is just a generic implementation for now.
Remove update steps for wxBlog (because it's redundant with the news
post on www.wxwidgets.org now that both are hosted at the same site),
Google+ (because of its extinction) and Buildbot (because we're going to
stop using it soon anyhow).
Add a step for updating the list of compilers used for building
binaries.
Disabling a window before actually creating it ought to work, similarly
to hiding a window before creating it which can be used to avoid showing
the window on screen at all, even briefly. However it didn't under MSW
where the window was disabled from wxWidgets point of view, but not at
the MSW level.
Fix this by accounting for the enabled state in MSWGetStyle().
Closes#16385.
It makes more sense to update it manually once and then run the script
rather than partially updating it manually first, then updating it again
and then running the script.
We used docs/msw/install.txt for this previously, but it was too long to
be comfortably viewed in the installation wizard and also incidentally
doesn't exist any more, so add a new, short file just referring the user
to its replacement.
Don't use the template specified by the filter in the file open dialog
if it's incapable of actually handling the current file.
This fixes a regression compared to 2.8 in docview code and allows
opening a file using the correct template for its extension even if an
incorrect (e.g. default) filter is chosen in the file open dialog.
Closes#18123.
Removing a page from wxToolbook could result in crashes due to
dereferencing the now invalid page index. Fix this by not assuming that
the page index is the same as its tool ID, but adding functions to
explicitly map one to the other.
Also fix inserting pages into wxToolbook, which worked as appending them
before.
Closes https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxWidgets/pull/1042Closes#18275.
Update the colours used when the system theme changes.
This is especially important to use the colour scheme compatible with
macOS 10.14+ dark mode.
Note that this commit is best viewed with "git diff --color-moved".
Closes https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxWidgets/pull/916
Add functions to enable or disable pages inside wxToolbook.
Using the new functions you can present disabled icons so that the user
can expect more functionality and you do not need to add/remove pages in
different states.
Closes https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxWidgets/pull/1038
Use backticks around _UNICODE to avoid the special meaning of "_" in
Markdown.
Also use backticks around a couple of other identifiers/paths for
consistency.
Make wxDataViewCtrl::GetIremRect() work under all platforms and improve
tests, documentation and fix a couple of other problems in the same code
area.
See https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxWidgets/pull/1015
This method allows to retrieve the window this context is associated
with, if any.
Add "wxWindow*" argument to wxGraphicsContext ctor and provide the
window pointer to it when available, i.e. when creating the context from
a wxWindow directly or from wxWindowDC, which is also associated with a
window, in platform-specific code.
No real changes yet.
