While we have to keep these conversions enabled by default, they are very
dangerous as they can result in silent data loss on any system not using a
locale with UTF-8 encoding, i.e. always under MSW.
Allow mitigating this by defining wxNO_UNSAFE_WXSTRING_CONV when compiling the
application code using the library, which makes these conversions invisible to
the user code, and so can be used without recompiling the library.
Also add wxUSE_UNSAFE_WXSTRING_CONV which can be set to 0 when compiling the
library to disable these conversions globally for all applications using it.
Closes#11830.
Although WXWIN_COMPATIBILITY_x_y macros were mentioned in the backwards
compatibility overview, it seems appropriate to also document them with all
the other macros on the page dedicated to them.
By default double dashes are converted to en-dashes in the output (and triple
ones -- to em-dashes), but this is undesirable when double dashes are used not
as a punctuation mark but in command line options or as C++ decrement
operator, so escape them to avoid such conversion in this case.
Add a new class allowing to store passwords and other sensitive information
using the OS-provided facilities.
Add implementations for all the main platforms, documentation and a new sample
(which contains an ad hoc unit test as the real unit test for this class would
probably be a bad idea as it wouldn't run in non-interactive contexts and
could show OS level dialog boxes if it did).
Some Windows8+ APIs are only accessible via WinRT which is based on COM. However there are a few dependencies to get to the interfaces via functions defined in roapi.h. Using RoInitialize, RoUninitialize, etc. directly from it's windows headers adds dependencies to the WinRT dlls leaving the resulting exe unable to launch on earlier Windows versions. The wxWinRT functions wrap this with dynamic loading. Additionally wxWinRT::TempStringRef adds a convenient wrapper to HSTRING which is used extensively in WinRT APIs.
Cocoa has been the default toolkit in wxWidgets for a long time. There is really no good reason to use Carbon in 2016 and this removes a lot of unused and unmaintained code.
This symbol can now be predefined to avoid conflicts with mode_t definition in
wx/filefn.h when wxWidgets is used in applications also using another library
which also defines mode_t.

Windows CE doesn't seem to be supported by Microsoft any longer. Last CE
release was in early 2013 and the PocketPC and Smartphone targets supported by
wxWidgets are long gone.
The build files where already removed in an earlier cleanup this commit
removes all files, every #ifdef and all documentation regarding the Windows CE
support.
Closes https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxWidgets/pull/81
The current master doesn't support Win9x any more but does support Windows 10
and MSVC 15 and while the platform details page of the manual was already
updated to reflect this, the more visible introduction page was not, update it
as well.
Also update MSW installation instructions in install.txt.
This is a simple animated control indicating some program activity.
Provide native GTK+ (for > 2.20) and OS X implementations as well as a generic
one used under MSW.
Update the sample and the documentation.
Due to an apparent bug in Doxygen 1.8.2 (the version currently used for the
online documentation generation), using "@c __FOO__" not only renders __FOO__
in fixed width font, but also makes it bold (due to bad interaction with
Markdown support?), so use <tt>__FOO__</tt> instead to work around this.
And in one case, escape underscores explicitly (in __VISUALC7__) as they were
still interpreted, even inside <tt>.

Get rid of the rest of __WXCOCOA__ tests in the sources.
Drop configure option for using it.
Also remove the documentation for this port.
This should have also been part of r76735.

It's not really clear what potential benefit could library users extract from
the knowledge that the picker controls behaviour is "highly
platform-dependent".
Try to be flighty more helpful.

Don't test for wxUSE_NORLANDER_HEADERS, this is always true since many, many
years.
Remove tests for gcc version < 3.3, notably 2.95: the minimal supported gcc
version is 3.4.
Closes#15727.

This compiler is not being developed since several years and almost certainly
can't be used to build the current wxWidgets sources anyhow, so remove all
support for it, including a lot of extremely ugly workarounds for its bugs
with template functions.

Most importantly, this allows us to remove all MSLU-related stuff.
Some functions which were previously loaded dynamically can now be just used
directly, too.

This port is not used and is not being worked on, so remove it to reduce the
amount of the code which needs to be updated for every global change.
Also remove tests for VisualAge compiler which isn't used since ages.
