There is no reason to use wxMutex and wxCondition in C++11 programs as
they have about the same API as the corresponding standard classes but
are, well, non-standard.
wxThread API is different from std::thread, so it's a less obvious
replacement, but still at least mention the standard class in its
documentation.
The documentation's notes about MSW limitations about setting priority
before creating the thread do not appear to be true (anymore). Thread
priority is already set by Create() if SetPriority() was called earlier.
Setting it immediately just failed, because the thread did not exist
yet, but this was fixed by the previous commit.
This allows calling the base class version from the derived classes and
also, at least as importantly, make sure that the function is actually
documented as private functions are not extracted by Doxygen by default.
Closes#16749.
Closes https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxWidgets/pull/1543
No real changes, just clean up sources by removing trailing spaces from
all the non-generated files.
This should hopefully avoid future commits mixing significant changes
with insignificant whitespace ones.
Delete() doesn't (and can't, under Unix) wait for the detached threads,
although it does do it under MSW (but arguably shouldn't), so it can't
retrieve the thread exit code there.
Document that its "rc" argument is only useful with joinable threads.
Closes#18240.
The code setting thread priority doesn't work without changing the
scheduling policy as thread priorities are simply ignored when using the
default SCHED_OTHER (at least under Linux and NetBSD, but probably other
systems too).
See #18195.
Don't claim that SetPriority() can only be called before the thread is
created, this is just wrong.
Do document that it must be done after creating the thread in wxMSW (this is a
limitation of this port as POSIX implementation allows calling it at any
moment and could be lifted in the future).
Closes#16809.

Under MSW a thread has both an ID, returned by wxThread::GetId(), and a
handle, which couldn't be retrieved so far. Add an accessor to do it.
Closes#16170.

Make MyThread a friend to allow it accessing the private fields of MyFrame.
Notice that this example still remains badly written and should be ideally
entirely redone using conditions and mutexes.
See #15881.

Add Wait() overload that takes a functor argument and doesn't return
until the condition is signaled _and_ the predicate returns true. This
is useful for dealing with spurious wakeups and is modeled after C++11
std::condition_variable's corresponding method.

This keyword is not expanded by Git which means it's not replaced with the
correct revision value in the releases made using git-based scripts and it's
confusing to have lines with unexpanded "$Id$" in the released files. As
expanding them with Git is not that simple (it could be done with git archive
and export-subst attribute) and there are not many benefits in having them in
the first place, just remove all these lines.
If nothing else, this will make an eventual transition to Git simpler.
Closes#14487.

As the event being defined is a wxThreadEvent, EVT_THREAD must be used.
Also rename wxEVT_COMMAND_MYTHREAD_UPDATE to myEVT_THREAD_UPDATE to avoid
using "wxEVT_" prefix reserved by wx itself.

In the common case, when Run() is called immediately after Create() and
default stack size is used, it's unnecessarily verbose. Just create the
thread in Run() if it wasn't done explicitly yet.

Don't end the brief description at the first period if it's a period which is
part of "i.e." or "e.g.": escape the space following it to prevent Doxygen
from recognizing it as an end of sentence.

Applied patch by snowleopard2 fixing a bunch of typos such as misspellings and double words in the documentation. Combined the patch with some local queued typos waiting to be committed as well as adding new typo fixes inspired by the patch.
Function names with American spelling were not changed nor was third-party code touched. The only code changes involve some changes in strings that are translated ("Can not" -> "Cannot").
Closes#13063 (again).

Add "wait mode" parameter to these methods which can be used to make them
block even under wxMSW where they currently dispatch messages when called
which can be totally unexpected.
Do keep the old behaviour for compatibility however, although it will change i

Call OnXXX() from wxThread::Kill() and Delete() respectively to allow the
thread being terminated perform some cleanup.

Use "wxWindows licence" and not "wxWidgets licence" (the latter doesn't
exist) and consistently spell "licence" using British spelling.

This is useful for checking if a message was logged from the main thread or not and also allows us to implement IsMain() by comparing GetCurrentId() with GetMainId() in all ports and avoid repetition.
