Peek() is not expected to block so ensure that it doesn't, independently of the currently used socket flags, by using wxSOCKET_NOWAIT. See #11528. git-svn-id: https://svn.wxwidgets.org/svn/wx/wxWidgets/trunk@63282 c3d73ce0-8a6f-49c7-b76d-6d57e0e08775

| 
 | |
| INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES SINCE 2.8.x
 | |
| ================================
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
|         Notice that these changes are described in more details in
 | |
|         the "Changes Since wxWidgets 2.8" section of the manual,
 | |
|         please read it if the explanation here is too cryptic.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| Unicode-related changes
 | |
| -----------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
| The biggest changes in wxWidgets 3.0 are the changes due to the merge of the
 | |
| old ANSI and Unicode build modes in a single build. See the Unicode overview
 | |
| in the manual for more details but here are the most important incompatible
 | |
| changes:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Many wxWidgets functions taking "const wxChar *" have been changed to take
 | |
|   either "const wxString&" (so that they accept both Unicode and ANSI strings;
 | |
|   the argument can't be NULL anymore in this case) or "const char *" (if the
 | |
|   strings are always ANSI; may still be NULL). This change is normally
 | |
|   backwards compatible except:
 | |
| 
 | |
|   a) Virtual functions: derived classes versions must be modified to take
 | |
|      "const wxString&" as well to make sure that they continue to override the
 | |
|      base class version.
 | |
| 
 | |
|   b) Passing NULL as argument: as NULL can't be unambiguously converted to
 | |
|      wxString, in many cases code using it won't compile any more and NULL
 | |
|      should be replaced with an empty string.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Functions returning "const wxChar *" were changed as well. Mostly they now
 | |
|   return wxString which is then transparently convertible to either "const char
 | |
|   *" or "const wchar_t *" but in some cases, notably wxDateTime::ParseXXX(),
 | |
|   the returned string could be NULL and so a separate helper class is used. If
 | |
|   you obtain compilation errors because of this, you can always correct them by
 | |
|   explicitly assigning the function return value to a variable of wanted type.
 | |
|   A slightly more intrusive but better solution is to use ParseXXX() version
 | |
|   with wxString::const_iterator output parameter which simply returns bool to
 | |
|   indicate the parsing success.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Some structure fields which used to be of type "const wxChar *" (such as
 | |
|   wxCmdLineEntryDesc::shortName, longName and description fields) are now of
 | |
|   type "const char *", you need to remove wxT() or _T() around the values used
 | |
|   to initialize them (which should normally always be ASCII).
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxIPC classes didn't work correctly in Unicode build before, this was fixed
 | |
|   but at a price of breaking backwards compatibility: many methods which used
 | |
|   to work with "wxChar *" before use "void *" now (some int parameters were
 | |
|   also changed to size_t). While wxIPC_TEXT can still be used to transfer 7
 | |
|   bit text, the new wxIPC_UTF8TEXT format is used for transferring wxStrings.
 | |
|   Also notice that connection classes should change the parameter types of
 | |
|   their overridden OnExecute() or override a more convenient OnExec() instead.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| wxODBC and contrib libraries removal
 | |
| ------------------------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
| wxODBC library was unmaintained since several years and we couldn't continue
 | |
| supporting it any longer so it was removed. Please use any of the other open
 | |
| source ODBC libraries in the future projects.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Also the "applet", "deprecated", "fl", "mmedia" and "plot" contrib libraries
 | |
| were removed as they were unmaintained and broken since several years.
 | |
| The "gizmos", "ogl", "net" and "foldbar" contribs have been moved to
 | |
| wxCode (see http://wxcode.sourceforge.net/complist.php); they are now
 | |
| open for futher development by volunteers.
 | |
| 
 | |
| The "stc" and "svg" contribs instead have been moved respectively into a new
 | |
| "official" library stc and in the core lib.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| Changes in behaviour not resulting in compilation errors, please read this!
 | |
| ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Default location of wxFileConfig files has changed under Windows, you will
 | |
|   need to update your code if you access these files directly.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxWindow::IsEnabled() now returns false if a window parent (and not
 | |
|   necessarily the window itself) is disabled, new function IsThisEnabled()
 | |
|   with the same behaviour as old IsEnabled() was added.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Generating wxNavigationKeyEvent events doesn't work any more under wxGTK (and
 | |
|   other platforms in the future), use wxWindow::Navigate() or NavigateIn()
 | |
|   instead.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Sizers distribute only the extra space between the stretchable items
 | |
|   according to their proportions and not all available space. We believe the
 | |
|   new behaviour corresponds better to user expectations but if you did rely
 | |
|   on the old behaviour you will have to update your code to set the minimal
 | |
|   sizes of the sizer items to be in the same proportion as the items
 | |
|   proportions to return to the old behaviour.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Interpretation of font height in pixels parameter has changed in wxFont
 | |
|   ctor and SetPixelSize() in wxMSW: it is now used as character height and not
 | |
|   the total cell height. If you previously used negative height to explicitly
 | |
|   request character height matching, you may now change your code to use
 | |
|   positive value (passing negative height still works but is undocumented and
 | |
|   deprecated). If you used positive height before you should retest your code
 | |
|   to check if the changes correspond to your expectations. And if you do need
 | |
|   the old behaviour please contact us at wx-dev to let us know about it!
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxWindow::Freeze/Thaw() are not virtual any more, if you overrode them in
 | |
|   your code you need to override DoFreeze/DoThaw() instead now.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxCalendarCtrl has native implementation in wxGTK, but it has less features
 | |
|   than the generic one. The native implementation is used by default, but you
 | |
|   can still use wxGenericCalendarCtrl instead of wxCalendarCtrl in your code if
 | |
|   you need the extra features.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxDocument::FileHistoryLoad() and wxFileHistory::Load() now take const
 | |
|   reference to wxConfigBase argument and not just a reference, please update
 | |
|   your code if you overrode these functions and change the functions in the
 | |
|   derived classes to use const reference as well.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Under MSW wxExecute() arguments are now always properly quoted, as under
 | |
|   Unix, and so shouldn't contain quotes unless they are part of the argument.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxDocument::OnNewDocument() doesn't call OnCloseDocument() any more.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - If you use wxScrolledWindow::SetTargetWindow() you must implement its
 | |
|   GetSizeAvailableForScrollTarget() method, please see its documentation for
 | |
|   more details.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Processing of pending events now requires a running event loop.
 | |
|   Thus initialization code (e.g. showing a dialog) previously done in wxApp::OnRun()
 | |
|   or equivalent function should now be done into wxApp::OnEventLoopEnter().
 | |
|   See wxApp::OnEventLoopEnter() and wxApp::OnEventLoopExit() docs for more info.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxLoadFileSelector() now allows the user to select existing files only.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Erase background events are now not generated at all when background style is
 | |
|   changed. See the updated wxWindow::SetBackgroundStyle() description in the
 | |
|   manual for more details.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxTreeCtrl::GetSelection now asserts if the tree has the wxTR_MULTIPLE style.
 | |
|   Instead use GetSelections() for multiple items; or if you want only the
 | |
|   single item last touched, the new wxTreeCtrl::GetFocusedItem.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Custom log targets should be updated to override wxLog::DoLogRecord() method
 | |
|   instead of DoLog() or DoLogString() and must be updated if they call the base
 | |
|   class versions of these functions as this won't work any more; please see the
 | |
|   documentation of wxLog for more information.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Confusing wxGridSizer(int cols, int vgap = 0, int hgap = 0) ctor which was
 | |
|   easy to mistake for wxGridSizer(int rows, int cols) overload was removed, you
 | |
|   will need to specify both vertical and horizontal gap if you want to use this
 | |
|   overload or specify both rows and columns and the gap otherwise. Use of the
 | |
|   new constructors taking wxSize for the gap argument is preferred. The same
 | |
|   applies to wxFlexGridSizer as well.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxBoxSizer::AddSpacer(x) now adds space in the direction of the sizer only
 | |
|   and not in both this and the orthogonal directions. This behaviour is what
 | |
|   most of the people expect but if you really relied on this overload adding
 | |
|   space in both directions you should change your code to use AddSpacer(x, x).
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxTextCtrl::LoadFile no longer sends a text update event.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxXmlDocument::Save()'s indentstep argument's interpretation was fixed
 | |
|   to match the documentation: it now really is the number of spaces in
 | |
|   indentation instead of being its double. Its default value was changed
 | |
|   accordingly, to 2.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| Changes in behaviour which may result in compilation errors
 | |
| -----------------------------------------------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
| - WXWIN_COMPATIBILITY_2_4 doesn't exist any more, please update your code if
 | |
|   you still relied on features deprecated since version 2.4
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxDC classes hierarchy has changed, if you derived any classes from wxDC you
 | |
|   need to review them as wxDC doesn't have any virtual methods any longer and
 | |
|   uses delegation instead of inheritance to present different behaviours.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxWindow::ProcessEvent() (and other wxEvtHandler methods inherited by wxWindow)
 | |
|   has been made protected to prevent wrongly using it instead of correct
 | |
|   GetEventHandler()->ProcessEvent().
 | |
|   New ProcessWindowEvent() was added for convenience.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Return type of wxString::operator[] and wxString::iterator::operator* is no
 | |
|   longer wxChar (i.e. char or wchar_t), but wxUniChar. This is not a problem
 | |
|   in vast majority of cases because of conversion operators, but it can break
 | |
|   code that depends on the result being wxChar.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - The value returned by wxString::c_str() cannot be casted to non-const char*
 | |
|   or wchar_t* anymore. The solution is to use newly added wxString methods
 | |
|   char_str() (which returns a buffer convertible to char*) or wchar_str()
 | |
|   (which returns a buffer convertible to wchar_t*). These methods are
 | |
|   available in wxWidgets 2.8 series beginning with 2.8.4 as well.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - The value returned by wxString::operator[] or wxString::iterator cannot be
 | |
|   used in switch statements anymore, because it's a class instance. Code like
 | |
|   this won't compile:
 | |
|      switch (str[i]) { ... }
 | |
|   and has to be replaced with this:
 | |
|      switch (str[i].GetValue()) { ... }
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Return type of wxString::c_str() is now a helper wxCStrData struct and not
 | |
|   const wxChar*. wxCStrData is implicitly convertible to both "const char *"
 | |
|   and "const wchar_t *", so this only presents a problem if the compiler cannot
 | |
|   apply the conversion. This can happen in 2 cases:
 | |
| 
 | |
|   + There is an ambiguity because the function being called is overloaded to
 | |
|     take both "const char *" and "const wchar_t *" as the compiler can't choose
 | |
|     between them. In this case you may use s.wx_str() to call the function
 | |
|     matching the current build (Unicode or not) or s.mb_str() or s.wc_str() to
 | |
|     explicitly select narrow or wide version of it.
 | |
| 
 | |
|     Notice that such functions are normally not very common but unfortunately
 | |
|     Microsoft decided to extend their STL with standard-incompatible overloads
 | |
|     of some functions accepting "const wchar_t *" so you may need to replace
 | |
|     some occurrences of c_str() with wx_str() when using MSVC 8 or later.
 | |
| 
 | |
|   + Some compilers, notably Borland C++ and DigitalMars, don't correctly
 | |
|     convert operator?: operands to the same type and fail with compilation
 | |
|     error instead. This can be worked around by explicitly casting to const
 | |
|     wxChar*: wxLogError(_("error: %s"), !err.empty() ? (const wxChar*)err.c_str() : "")
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxCtime() and wxAsctime() return char*; this is incompatible with Unicode
 | |
|   build in wxWidgets 2.8 that returned wchar_t*.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - DigitalMars compiler has a bug that prevents it from using
 | |
|   wxUniChar::operator bool in conditions and it erroneously reports type
 | |
|   conversion ambiguity in expressions such as this:
 | |
|      for ( wxString::const_iterator p = s.begin(); *p; ++p )
 | |
|   This can be worked around by explicitly casting to bool:
 | |
|      for ( wxString::const_iterator p = s.begin(); (bool)*p; ++p )
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Virtual wxHtmlParser::AddText() takes wxString, not wxChar*, argument now.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Functions that took wxChar* arguments that could by NULL in wxWidgets 2.8
 | |
|   are deprecated and passing NULL to them won't compile anymore, wxEmptyString
 | |
|   must be used instead.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxTmemxxx() functions take either wxChar* or char*, not void*: use memxxx()
 | |
|   with void pointers.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Removed insecure wxGets() and wxTmpnam() functions.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Removed global GetLine() function from wx/protocol/protocol.h, use
 | |
|   wxProtocol::ReadLine() instead.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxVariant no longer derives from wxObject. wxVariantData also no longer
 | |
|   derives from wxObject; instead of using wxDynamicCast with wxVariantData you
 | |
|   can use the macro wxDynamicCastVariantData with the same arguments.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxWindow::Next/PrevControlId() don't exist any more as they couldn't be
 | |
|   implemented correctly any longer because automatically generated ids are not
 | |
|   necessarily allocated consecutively now. Use GetChildren() to find the
 | |
|   next/previous control sibling instead.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Calling wxConfig::Write() with an enum value will fail to compile because
 | |
|   wxConfig now tries to convert all unknown types to wxString automatically.
 | |
|   The simplest solution is to cast the enum value to int.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Several wxImage methods which previously had "long bitmaptype" parameters
 | |
|   have been changed to accept "wxBitmapType bitmaptype", please use enum
 | |
|   wxBitmapType in your code.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxGridCellEditor::EndEdit() signature has changed and it was split in two
 | |
|   functions, one still called EndEdit() and ApplyEdit(). See the documentation
 | |
|   of the new functions for more details about how grid editors should be
 | |
|   written now.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxEVT_GRID_CELL_CHANGE event renamed to wxEVT_GRID_CELL_CHANGED and shouldn't
 | |
|   be vetoed any more, use the new wxEVT_GRID_CELL_CHANGING event to do it.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxListCtrlCompare function used with wxListCtrl::SortItems() must now declare
 | |
|   its third parameter as wxIntPtr and not long (this allows passing pointers
 | |
|   to it under 64 bit platforms too).
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Global wxPendingEvents and wxPendingEventsLocker objects were removed.
 | |
|   You may use wxEventLoopBase::SuspendProcessingOfPendingEvents instead of
 | |
|   locking wxPendingEventsLocker now.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxBitmapButton::GetBitmapXXX() overloads returning non-const wxBitmap
 | |
|   references have been removed, modifying the returned bitmaps never worked and
 | |
|   now results in compile-time error.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxLogXXX() are now macros, not functions. Because of this calling them with
 | |
|   an explicit scope resolution operator ("::wxLogError()") doesn't work any
 | |
|   longer, just remove it. Also notice that using them inside an "if" statement
 | |
|   without enclosing parentheses results in warnings from g++ with -Wparentheses,
 | |
|   add parentheses around the if statement body to work around it.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxList::Member() now returns book and not a pointer/iterator. This shouldn't
 | |
|   require any changes as it was always meant to be used for checking for the
 | |
|   presence of an element in the list only. If you used it as Find(), simple do
 | |
|   use Find() instead.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxLongLongFmtSpec is now a normal and not wide string so you will need to
 | |
|   change expressions of the form wxT("%") wxLongLongFmtSpec wxT("x") to
 | |
|   just "%" wxLongLongFmtSpec "x", i.e. simply remove wxT() from the strings you
 | |
|   concatenate with it.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| Deprecated methods and their replacements
 | |
| -----------------------------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxCreateGreyedImage() deprecated, use wxImage::ConvertToGreyscale() instead.
 | |
| - wxString::GetWriteBuf() and UngetWriteBuf() deprecated, using wxStringBuffer
 | |
|   or wxStringBufferLength instead.
 | |
| - wxDIRCTRL_SHOW_FILTERS style is deprecated, filters are alwsys shown if
 | |
|   specified so this style should simply be removed
 | |
| - wxDocManager::MakeDefaultName() replaced by MakeNewDocumentName() and
 | |
|   wxDocument::GetPrintableName() with GetUserReadableName() which are simpler
 | |
|   to use
 | |
| - wxXmlProperty class was renamed to wxXmlAttribute in order to use standard
 | |
|   terminology. Corresponding wxXmlNode methods were renamed to use
 | |
|   "Attribute" instead of "Property" or "Prop" in their names.
 | |
| - wxConnection::OnExecute() is not formally deprecated yet but new code should
 | |
|   use simpler OnExec() version which is called with wxString argument
 | |
| - Various wxMenuItem methods were deprecated in favour of more consisently
 | |
|   named new versions:
 | |
|     . GetLabel() is now GetItemLabelText()
 | |
|     . GetText() is not GetItemLabel()
 | |
|     . GetLabelFromText() is now GetLabelText()
 | |
|     . SetText() is now SetItemLabel()
 | |
| - wxBrush's, wxPen's SetStyle() and GetStyle() as well as the wxBrush/wxPen
 | |
|   ctor now take respectively a wxBrushStyle and a wxPenStyle value instead of a
 | |
|   plain "int style"; use the new wxBrush/wxPen style names (wxBRUSHSTYLE_XXX
 | |
|   and wxPENSTYLE_XXX) instead of the old deprecated wxXXX styles.
 | |
| - EVT_GRID_CELL_CHANGE was deprecated, use EVT_GRID_CELL_CHANGED instead if you
 | |
|   don't veto the event in its handler and EVT_GRID_CELL_CHANGING if you do.
 | |
| - EVT_CALENDAR_DAY event has been deprecated, use EVT_CALENDAR_SEL_CHANGED.
 | |
| - EVT_CALENDAR_MONTH and EVT_CALENDAR_YEAR events are deprecated,
 | |
|   use EVT_CALENDAR_PAGE_CHANGED which replaces both of them.
 | |
| - wxCalendarCtrl::EnableYearChange() and wxCAL_NO_YEAR_CHANGE are deprecated.
 | |
|   There is no replacement for this functionality, it is being dropped as it is
 | |
|   not available in native wxCalendarCtrl implementations.
 | |
| - wxDC::SetClippingRegion(const wxRegion&) overload is deprecated as it used
 | |
|   different convention from the other SetClippingRegion() overloads: wxRegion
 | |
|   passed to it was interpreted in physical, not logical, coordinates. Replace
 | |
|   it with SetDeviceClippingRegion() if this was the correct thing to do in your
 | |
|   code.
 | |
| - wxTE_AUTO_SCROLL style is deprecated as it's always on by default anyhow.
 | |
| - wxThreadHelper::Create() has been renamed to CreateThread which has a better
 | |
|   name for a mix-in class, and allows setting the thread type.
 | |
| - wxDos2UnixFilename, wxUnix2DosFilename, wxStripExtension, wxGetTempFileName,
 | |
|   wxExpandPath, wxContractPath, wxRealPath, wxCopyAbsolutePath, wxSplitPath
 | |
|   were deprecated in favour of wxFileName methods. See docs for more info.
 | |
| - wxEvtHandler::TryValidator/Parent() are deprecated, override the new and
 | |
|   documented TryBefore/After() methods if you used to override these ones.
 | |
| - wxGetMultipleChoices() is deprecated, use wxGetSelectedChoices() which has
 | |
|   the same signature but returns -1 and not 0 if the dialog was cancelled.
 | |
| - building the windows which are placed inside wxStaticBoxes as siblings of the
 | |
|   wxStaticBox is still allowed but it's deprecated as it gives some problems
 | |
|   on some ports (e.g. wxGTK).
 | |
|   You should now create windows placed inside a wxStaticBox as children of
 | |
|   the static box itself.
 | |
| - wxMouseState::{Left,Middle,Right}Down() were renamed to XXXIsDown() for
 | |
|   consistency with wxMouseEvent and the old names were deprecated.
 | |
| - wxFont::SetNoAntiAliasing() was deprecated, it never really worked in most
 | |
|   ports and was always marked as "experimental" API. It will be replaced with
 | |
|   wxDC-level anti-aliasing control in the future.
 | |
| - wxValidator::SetBellOnError() incorrectly interpreted its argument (it
 | |
|   disabled the bell when it was true) and was replaced by SuppressBellOnError()
 | |
|   with more expected semantics.
 | |
| - wxPORTRAIT and wxLANDSCAPE are now elements of wxPrintOrientation enum and
 | |
|   wxPrintData::SetOrientation(int) takes wxPrintOrientation and not int.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| Major new features in this release
 | |
| ----------------------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxWidgets is now always built with Unicode support but provides the same
 | |
|   simple (i.e. "char *"-tolerant) API as was available in ANSI build in the
 | |
|   past.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxWidgets may now use either wchar_t (UTF-16/32) or UTF-8 internally,
 | |
|   depending on what is optimal for the target platform.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - New propgrid library containing wxPropertyGrid and related classes.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - new ribbon library for advanced toolbars.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Many enhancements to wxDataViewCtrl.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Event loops, timers and sockets can now be used in wxBase, without GUI.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Events can now be connected to any functor, not necessarily a method of
 | |
|   wxEvtHandler-derived class. The compile-time safety was also improved.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Documentation for wxWidgets has been converted from LaTex to C++ headers
 | |
|   with Doxygen comments and significantly improved in the process (screenshots
 | |
|   of various controls were added, more identifiers are now linked to their
 | |
|   definition &c). Any reports about inaccuracies in the documentation are
 | |
|   welcome (and due to using the simple Doxygen syntax it is now easier than
 | |
|   ever to submit patches correcting them! :-)
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Support for persistent objects automatically saving and restoring their state
 | |
|   was added.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| 2.9.1:
 | |
| ------
 | |
| 
 | |
| INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE SINCE 2.9.0
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxStandardPaths doesn't use vendor name by default under MSW and OSX to
 | |
|   remain compatible with 2.8 behaviour but this makes it incompatible with
 | |

 | |
| - Changed calculation of scrolling area to not clip away some bits
 | |

|   code, from which the Pango drawing code was removed.
 | |
| - Implemented/improved wxDC::DrawRotatedText()
 | |
| - fixed wxFileDialog::SetWildcard()
 | |
| - native file dialog is now used if available (Zbigniew Zagorski)

 | |
|   after wxTextCtrl creation if you really need to. (Mart Raudsepp)
 | |
| - Changed calls to GTK+ 2.4.x functions so that the code checks at
 | |
|   runtime, which library version is installed so that these functions
 | |
|   are only called with GTK+ 2.4.x installed and should yield linker
 | |
|   errors otherwise.
 | |
| - wxTextCtrl text insertion efficiency fixed. (Mart Raudsepp)

 | |
| -----
 | |
| 
 | |
| All:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Hindi translation added (Dhananjaya Sharma)
 | |
| - Brazilian Portuguese translation added (E. A. Tacao)
 | |
| - wxDynamicCast() now uses static_cast<wxObject *> internally and so using it
 | |
|   with anything not deriving from wxObject will fail at compile time (instead
 | |
|   of run-time) now
 | |
| - when wxUSE_STL == 1 and STL provides quasi-standard hash_map/hash_set,
 | |
|   wxHashMap/wxHashSet are just typedefs for them. This makes impossible
 | |
|   to forward declare these classes.
 | |
| 
 | |
| All (GUI):
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxHtmlWindow now delays image scaling until rendering,
 | |
|   resulting in much better display of scaled images
 | |
| - Added UpdateSize to wxSplitterWindow to allow layout while hidden
 | |
| - implemented Freeze/Thaw() for wxGenericTreeCtrl (Kevin Hock)
 | |
| - support for KOI8-U encoding added (Yuriy Tkachenko)
 | |
| - The old wxADJUST_MINSIZE behaviour is now the default behaviour for
 | |
|   sizer items that are windows.  This means that GetAdjustedBestSize
 | |
|   will now be called by default to determine the minimum size that a
 | |
|   window in a sizer should have.  If you want to still use the initial
 | |
|   size (and not the BestSize) then use the wxFIXED_MINSIZE flag.  When
 | |
|   windows are added to a sizer their initial size is made the window's
 | |
|   min size using SetSizeHints, and calls to wxSizer::SetItemMinSize
 | |
|   are also forwarded to SetSizeHints for window items.
 | |
| - added wxRegEx::GetMatchCount()
 | |
| - it is now possible to display images in wxHtmlListBox
 | |
| 
 | |
| wxMSW:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxWindow::Freeze()/Thaw() can now be nested
 | |
| - Added wxSP_NO_XP_THEME style to wxSplitterWindow to switch off
 | |
|   XP theming (some applications look bad without 3D borders)
 | |
| - wxMenuBar::GetLabelTop() doesn't include '&'s in the label any more
 | |
| - wxRegConf couldn't read global settings without admin privileges and didn't
 | |
|   even try to do it by default -- now it does
 | |
| - wxTaskBarIcon must be explicitly destroyed now, otherwise the application
 | |
|   won't exit even though there are no top level windows
 | |
| - wxFileName::GetModificationTime() works with opened files too now
 | |
| - wxDC::GetClippingBox() now works even for clipping regions created by Windows
 | |
| - fixed wxFileDataObject in Unicode build (Alex D)

 | |
| 
 | |
| wxGTK:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - added support for wxTE_RIGHT and wxTE_CENTRE styles under GTK2 (Mart Raudsepp)
 | |
| 
 | |
| wxMotif:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - removed wxMenuItem::DeleteSubMenu()
 | |
| - wxButtons use Motif default size, which is smaller than it used to be
 | |
|   and closer to wxMSW/wxGTK look. This can be disabled by setting
 | |
|   motif.largebuttons system option to 1 (see wxSystemOptions).
 | |
| 
 | |
| wxUniv/X11:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - implemented DrawRoundedRectangle() (clawghoul)
 | |
| 
 | |
| wxHTML:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - improved tables and lists layout algorithms (Tim Kosse)
 | |
| - <div> handling fix (Xavier Nodet)
 | |
| 
 | |
| Unix:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - fixed priorities of mailcap entries (David Hart)
 | |
| - added "wx-config --libs=std,<extra>" syntax (i.e. support for "std")
 | |
| 
 | |
| wxODBC:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Full Unicode support is now available
 | |
| - BLOB support is working

|   std::vector, wxList from std::list. In addition wxHashTable will be
 | |
|   implemented in terms of wxHashMap.
 | |
| - Added wxList::compatibility_iterator. Can be used like wxNode* (except
 | |
|   it can't be delete()d). It permits writing code which will work

 | |
| - wxWindow::OnInternalIdle is now used in all ports, and ensures that
 | |
|   user OnIdle events do not interfere with crucial internal processing.

 | |
|   sends wxUpdateUIEvents, and can be overridden. It has a helper function
 | |
|   DoUpdateWindowUI for taking appropriate wxUpdateUIEvent action.
 | |
| - Added functions to wxUpdateUIEvent: Set/GetMode, Set/GetUpdateInterval,
 | |
|   CanUpdate, to assist with optimising update event frequency.
 | |
| - Added functions to wxIdleEvent: Set/GetMode, CanSend, to
 | |
|   determine whether a window should receive idle events.
 | |
| - Added wxWS_EX_PROCESS_IDLE, wxWS_EX_PROCESS_UI_UPDATES window
 | |
|   styles for use with conservative idle and update event modes.
 | |
| - send menu update events only when a menu is about to be used (MSW/GTK)
 | |
| - improved event processing performance (Hans Van Leemputten)
 | |
| - added wxMirrorDC class
 | |
| - printing improvements: GetPageInfo() gets called after the DC has
 | |
|   been set and after OnPreparePrinting() has been called so it can
 | |
|   report the number of pages accurately; doesn't try to set
 | |
|   number of pages in print dialog, in common with other Windows apps;
 | |
|   wxHTML easy printing's preview shows number of pages
 | |
|   correctly; preview scrollbars are set correctly; keyboard navigation
 | |
|   improved
 | |
|

| OLD CHANGES
 | |
| ===========
 | |
| 
 | |
| INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES SINCE 2.2.x
 | |
| ================================
 | |
| 
 | |
|     Please take a few minutes to read the following list, especially
 | |
|     paying attention to the most important changes which are marked
 | |
|     with '!' in the first column.
 | |
| 
 | |
|     Also please note that you should ensure that WXWIN_COMPATIBILITY_2_2
 | |
|     is defined to 1 if you wish to retain maximal compatibility with 2.2
 | |
|     series -- however you are also strongly encouraged to try to compile
 | |
|     your code without this define as it won't be default any longer in
 | |
|     2.6 release.
 | |
| 
 | |
|     NB: if you want to build your program with different major versions
 | |
|         of wxWidgets you will probably find the wxCHECK_VERSION() macro
 | |
|         (see the documentation) useful.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| wxBase:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ! wxArray<T>::Remove(size_t) has been removed to fix compilation problems
 | |
|   under 64 bit architectures, please replace it with RemoveAt() in your
 | |
|   code.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ! wxArray<T> macros have been changed to fix runtime problems under 64 bit
 | |
|   architectures and as a side effect of this WX_DEFINE_ARRAY() can only be
 | |
|   used now for the pointer types, WX_DEFINE_ARRAY_INT should be used for the
 | |
|   arrays containing non-pointers.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxObject::CopyObject() and Clone() methods were removed because they
 | |
|   simply don't make sense for all objects
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxEvent now has a pure virtual Clone() method which must be implemented
 | |
|   by all derived classes, if you have user-defined event classes please
 | |
|   add "wxEvent *Clone() const { return new MyEvent(*this); }" line to them
 | |
| 
 | |
| - small change to wxStopWatch::Pause() semantics, please see the documentation
 | |
| 
 | |
| - unlikely but possible incompatibility: the definition of TRUE has changed
 | |
|   from "1" to "(bool)1" (and the same thing for FALSE), so the code which
 | |
|   could be erroneously compiled previously such as doing "return FALSE" from
 | |
|   a function returning a pointer would stop compiling now (but this change
 | |
|   is not supposed to have any effects on valid code)
 | |
| 
 | |
| - another minor change: wxApp::OnAssert() has a new "cond" argument, you
 | |
|   must modify YourApp::OnAssert() signature if you were using it to override
 | |
|   the default assert handling.
 | |
| 
 | |
| All (GUI):
 | |
| 
 | |
| ! the event type constants are not constants any more but are dynamically
 | |
|   allocated during run-time which means that they can't be used as case labels
 | |
|   in the switch()es, you must rewrite them to use if()s instead
 | |
| 
 | |
|   You may also define WXWIN_COMPATIBILITY_EVENT_TYPES to get the old behaviour
 | |
|   but this is strongly discouraged, please consider changing your code
 | |
|   instead!
 | |
| 
 | |
| ! wxDialog does not derive from wxPanel any longer - if you were using it in
 | |
|   your code, please update it. The quick fix for the most cases is to replace
 | |
|   the occurrences of wxPanel with wxWindow.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ! if you handle (and don't skip) EVT_KEY_DOWN, the EVT_CHAR event is not
 | |
|   generated at all, so you must call event.Skip() in your OnKeyDown() if
 | |
|   you want to get OnChar() as well
 | |
| 
 | |
| - in general, the key events sent for the various non ASCII key combinations
 | |
|   have been changed to make them consistent over all supported platforms,
 | |
|   please see the wxKeyEvent documentation for details
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxYES_NO is now wxYES | wxNO and the manifest values of both wxYES and wxNO
 | |
|   have changed (to fix some unfortunate clashes), please check your code to
 | |
|   ensure that no tests for wxYES or wxNO are broken: for example, the following
 | |
|   will *NOT* work any longer:
 | |
| 
 | |
|         if ( flags & wxYES_NO )
 | |
|                 ... do something ...
 | |
|         if ( flags & wxYES )
 | |
|                 ... do something else ...
 | |
| 
 | |
| - static wxWizard::Create() doesn't exist any more, the wizards are created
 | |
|   in the same way as all the other wxWindow objects, i.e. by directly using
 | |
|   the ctor
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxGLCanvas now derives directly from wxWindow, not wxScrolledWindow
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxGridCellAttrProvider class API changed, you will need to update your code
 | |
|   if you derived any classes from it
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxImage::ComputeHistogram()'s signature changed to
 | |
|   unsigned long ComputeHistogram(wxImageHistogram&) const
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxEvtHandler cannot be copied/assigned any longer - this never worked but
 | |
|   now it results in compile-time error instead of run-time crashes
 | |
| 
 | |
| - WXK_NUMLOCK and WXK_SCROLL keys no longer result in EVT_CHAR() events,
 | |
|   they only generate EVT_KEY_DOWN/UP() ones
 | |
| 
 | |
| - the dialogs use wxApp::GetTopWindow() as the parent implicitly if the
 | |
|   parent specified is NULL, use wxDIALOG_NO_PARENT style to prevent this
 | |
|   from happening
 | |
| 
 | |
| - several obsolete synonyms are only retained in WXWIN_COMPATIBILITY_2_2 mode:
 | |
|   for example, use wxScrolledWindow::GetViewStart() now instead of ViewStart()
 | |
|   and GetCount() instead of Number() in many classes
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxCmdLineParser does not use wxLog to output messages anymore.
 | |
|   to obtain the previous behaviour, add
 | |
|   wxMessageOutput::Set(new wxMessageOutputLog); to your program
 | |
|   (you will need to #include <wx/msgout.h>)
 | |
| 
 | |
| wxMSW:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ! build system changed: setup.h is not a static file in include/wx any more
 | |
|   but is created as part of the build process under lib/<toolkit>/wx
 | |
|   where <toolkit> is of the form (msw|univ)[dll][u][d]. You'll need to update
 | |
|   the include path in your make/project files appropriately. Furthermore,
 | |
|   xpm.lib is no longer used by wxMSW, it was superseded by the wxXPMDecoder
 | |
|   class. You'll need to remove all references to xpm.lib from your
 | |
|   make/project files. Finally, the library names have changed as well and now
 | |
|   use the following consistent naming convention: wxmsw[ver][u][d].(lib|dll)
 | |
|   where 'u' appears for Unicode version, 'd' -- for the debug one and version
 | |
|   is only present for the DLLs builds.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - child frames appear in the taskbar by default now, use wxFRAME_NO_TASKBAR
 | |
|   style to avoid it
 | |
| 
 | |
| - all overloads of wxDC::SetClippingRegion() combine the given region with the
 | |
|   previously selected one instead of replacing it
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxGetHomeDir() uses HOME environment variable and if it is set will not
 | |
|   return the programs directory any longer but its value (this function has
 | |
|   never been meant to return the programs directory anyhow)
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxHTML apps don't need to include wx/html/msw/wxhtml.rc in resources file
 | |
|   anymore. The file was removed from wxMSW
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| Unix ports:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ! You should use `wx-config --cxxflags` in your makefiles instead of
 | |
|   `wx-config --cflags` for compiling C++ files. CXXFLAGS contains CFLAGS
 | |
|   and the compiler flags for C++ files only, CFLAGS should still be used
 | |
|   to compile pure C files.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| wxThread and related classes:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - The thread-related classes have been heavily changed since 2.2.x versions
 | |
|   as the old code had many serious problems. This could have resulted in
 | |
|   semantical changes other than those mentioned here, please review use of
 | |
|   wxThread, wxMutex and wxCondition classes in your code.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ! wxCondition now *must* be used with a mutex, please read the (updated) class
 | |
|   documentation for details and revise your code accordingly: this change was
 | |
|   unfortunately needed as it was impossible to ensure the correct behaviour
 | |
|   (i.e. absence of race conditions) using the old API.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxMutex is not recursive any more in POSIX implementation (it hasn't been
 | |
|   recursive in 2.2.x but was in 2.3.1 and 2.3.2), please refer to the class
 | |
|   documentation for the discussion of the recursive mutexes.
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxMutex::IsLocked() doesn't exist any more and should have never existed:
 | |
|   this is was unique example of a thread-unsafe-by-design method.
 | |

| Beta 1, December 24th 1998
 | |
| --------------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
| wxGTK:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Various
 | |
| 
 | |
| wxMSW, wxMotif: not in sync with this release.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| Alpha 18, December 29th 1998
 | |
| ----------------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
| wxMSW:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Win16 support working again (VC++ 1.5)
 | |
| - Win16 now uses generic wxNotebook, wxListCtrl,
 | |
|   wxTreeCtrl -- more or less working now, although
 | |
|   a little work on wxNotebook is still needed.
 | |
|   Under 16-bit Windows, get assertion when you click
 | |
|   on a tab.
 | |
| - Wrote 16-bit BC++ makefiles: samples don't yet link.
 | |
| - Added CodeWarrior support to distribution courtesy
 | |
|   of Stefan Csomor.
 | |
| 
 | |
| wxMotif:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Cured scrolling problem: scrollbars now show/hide themselves
 | |
|   without (permanently) resizing the window.
 | |
| - Removed some commented-out lines in wxScrolledWindow::AdjustScrollbars
 | |
|   that disabled scrollbar paging.
 | |
| - Set background colour of drawing area in wxWindow, so e.g. wxListCtrl
 | |
|   colours correctly.
 | |
| - Removed major bug whereby dialogs were unmanaged automatically
 | |
|   when any button was pressed.
 | |
| - Fixed colours of wxWindow scrollbars, made list and text controls
 | |
|   have a white background.
 | |
| - Fixed dialog colour setting.
 | |
| - Added settable fonts and colours for wxMenu/wxMenuBar. Now
 | |
|   they have sensible colours by default.
 | |
| - Fixed a bug in wxStaticBox.
 | |
| - Cured wxTreeCtrl bug: now works pretty well!
 | |
| - Debugged DrawEllipticArc (a ! in the wrong place).
 | |
| - Added SetClippingRegion( const wxRegion& region ).
 | |
| - Added wxPoint, wxSize, wxRect versions of SetSize etc.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Alpha 17, November 22nd 1998
 | |
| ----------------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
| wxMSW:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - More documentation updates, especially for
 | |
|   wxLayoutWindow classes and debugging facilities.
 | |
| - Changed wxDebugContext to use wxDebugLog instead
 | |
|   of wxTrace.
 | |
| - Now supports VC++ 6.0, and hopefully BC++ 5.0.
 | |
|   However, DLL support may be broken for BC++ since
 | |
|   VC++ 6 required changing of WXDLLEXPORT keyword
 | |
|   position.
 | |
| - Numerous miscellaneous changes.
 | |
| 
 | |
| wxMotif:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Reimplemented MDI using wxNotebook instead of the MDI widgets, which
 | |
|   were too buggy (probably not design for dynamic addition/removal of
 | |
|   child frames).
 | |
| - Some improvements to the wxNotebook implementation.
 | |
| - wxToolBar now uses a bulletin board instead of a form, in an attempt
 | |
|   to make it possible to add ordinary wxControls to a toolbar.
 | |
| - Cured problem with not being able to use global memory operators,
 | |
|   by defining two more global operators, so that the delete will match
 | |
|   the debugging implementation.
 | |
| - Added wxUSE_DEBUG_NEW_ALWAYS so we can distinguish between using
 | |
|   global memory operators (usually OK) and #defining new to be
 | |
|   WXDEBUG_NEW (sometimes it might not be OK).
 | |
| - Added time.cpp to makefile; set wxUSE_DATETIME to 1.
 | |
| - Added a parent-existence check to popup menu code to make it not crash.
 | |
| - Added some optimization in wxWindow::SetSize to produce less flicker.
 | |
|   It remains to be seen whether this produces any resize bugs.
 | |
| 
 | |
| It's a long time since I updated this file. Previously done:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxFrame, wxDialog done.
 | |
| - wxScrolledWindow done (but backing pixmap not used at present).
 | |
| - wxBitmap done though could be tidied it up at some point.
 | |
| - Most basic controls are there, if not rigorously tested.
 | |
| - Some MDI support (menus appear on child frames at present).
 | |
| - wxNotebook almost done.
 | |
| - wxToolBar done (horizontal only, which would be easy to extend
 | |
|   to vertical toolbars).
 | |
| 
 | |
| More recently:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Colour and font changing done (question mark over what happens
 | |
|   to scrollbars).
 | |
| - Accelerators done (for menu items and buttons). Also event loop
 | |
|   tidied up in wxApp so that events are filtered through ProcessXEvent.
 | |
| - wxWindow::GetUpdateRegion should now work.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Alpha 16, September 8th 1998
 | |
| ----------------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
| wxMSW:
 | |
|

 | |
|   sample.
 | |
| - Guilhem's socket classes added, plus wxsocket sample.
 | |
| - A few more makefiles added.
 | |
| - GnuWin32/BC++ compatibility mods.
 | |
| - Further doc updates.
 | |
| - wxProp updates for correct working with wxGTK.
 | |
| 
 | |
| wxMotif:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - First start at Motif port.
 | |
| - Made makefiles for wxMotif source directory and minimal sample.
 | |
| - First go at wxApp, wxWindow, wxDialog, wxPen, wxBrush, wxFont,
 | |
|   wxColour, wxButton, wxCheckBox, wxTextCtrl, wxStaticText,
 | |
|   wxMenu, wxMenuItem, wxMenuBar
 | |
| 
 | |
| Alpha 15, August 31st 1998
 | |
| --------------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
| wxMSW:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxBitmap debugged.
 | |
| - wxDC::GetDepth added.
 | |
| - Contribution added whereby wxBitmap will be
 | |
|   converted to DC depth if they don't match.
 | |
| - wxConfig API improved, documentation updated.
 | |
| - Printing classes name conventions cleaned up.
 | |
| - wxUpdateUIEvent now derives from wxCommandEvent
 | |
|   so event can travel up the window hierarchy.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Alpha 14, July 31st 1998
 | |
| ------------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
| wxMSW:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Toolbar API has been simplified, and now
 | |
|   wxFrame::GetClientArea returns the available client
 | |
|   area when toolbar, status bar etc. have been accounted for.
 | |
|   wxFrame::CreateToolBar added in line with CreateStatusBar.
 | |
| - Documentation updates, incl. for wxToolBar.
 | |
| - New wxAcceleratorTable class plus wxFrame::SetAcceleratorTable.
 | |
| - Various additions from other folk, e.g. streams, wxConfig
 | |
|   changes, wxNotebook.
 | |
| - Added wxDocMDIParentFrame, wxDocMDIChildFrame for doc/view.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Alpha 13, July 8th 1998
 | |
| -----------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
| wxMSW:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Implemented wxPoint as identical to POINT on Windows, and
 | |
|   altered wxDC wxPoint functions to use wxPoint directly in
 | |
|   Windows functions, for efficiency.
 | |
| - Cured wxASSERT bug in wxStatusBar95.
 | |
| - #ifdefed out some bits in oleutils.cpp for compilers that
 | |
|   don't support it.
 | |
| - Added some operators to wxPoint, wxSize.
 | |
| - Added inline wxDC functions using wxPoint, wxSize, wxRect.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Alpha 12, July 7th 1998
 | |
| -----------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
| wxMSW:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Added wxApp::GetComCtl32Version, and wxTB_FLAT style, so can
 | |
|   have flat toolbars on Win98 or Win95 with IE >= 3 installed.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Alpha 11, July 3rd 1998
 | |
| -----------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
| wxMSW:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Added thread.h, thread.cpp.
 | |
| - Changed Enabled, Checked to IsEnabled, IsChecked in wxMenu,
 | |
|   wxMenuBar.
 | |
| - Changed wxMenuItem::SetBackColor to SetBackgroundColour,
 | |
|   SetTextColor to SetTextColour, and added or made public several
 | |
|   wxMenuItem accessors.
 | |
| - Added two overloads to wxRegion::Contains. Added
 | |
|   wxRegion::IsEmpty for a more consistent naming convention.
 | |
| - Added Vadim's wxDataObject and wxDropSource.
 | |
| - ENTER/LEAVE events now work.
 | |
| - Cured wxMemoryDC bug where the DC wasn't being deleted.
 | |
| - Cured wxGauge SetSize major bugginess.
 | |
| - Cured problem where if a GDI object was created on the stack,
 | |
|   then went out of scope, then another object was selected into
 | |
|   the DC, GDI objects would leak. This is because the assignment
 | |
|   to e.g. wxDC::m_pen would delete the GDI object without it first
 | |
|   being selected out of the DC. Cured by selecting the old DC object
 | |
|   first, then doing the assignment.
 | |
| - Split up wxGaugeMSW, wxGauge95, wxSliderMSW, wxSlider95
 | |
| - Various other bug fixes and additions.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Generic:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Major work on Dialog Editor (still plenty to go).
 | |
| - Expanded documentation a bit more.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Alpha 10, May 7th 1998
 | |
| ----------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
| wxMSW:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Added desiredWidth, desiredHeight parameters to wxBitmapHandler
 | |
|   and wxIcon functions so that you can specify what size of
 | |
|   icon should be loaded. Probably will remain a Windows-specific thing.
 | |
| - wxStatusBar95 now works for MDI frames.
 | |
| - Toolbars in MDI frames now behave normally. They still
 | |
|   require application-supplied positioning code though.
 | |
| - Changed installation instructions, makefiles and batch files
 | |
|   for compiling with Gnu-Win32/Mingw32/EGCS. Also timercmn.cpp
 | |
|   change to support Mingw32/EGCS. Bison now used by default.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Alpha 9, April 27th 1998
 | |
| ------------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
| wxMSW:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Cured bug in wxStatusBar95 that caused a crash if multiple
 | |
|   fields were used.
 | |
| - Added Gnu-Win32 b19/Mingw32 support by changing resource
 | |
|   compilation and pragmas.
 | |
| - Cured wxMenu bug introduced in alpha 8 - didn't respond to
 | |
|   commands because VZ changed the id setting in wxMenu::MSWCommand.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Generic:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Corrected some bugs, such as the wxModule compilation problem.
 | |
| - Added Gnu-Win32 b19/Mingw32 support by changing resource
 | |
|   compilation and pragmas.
 | |
| - Changed SIZEOF to WXSIZEOF.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Alpha 8, April 17th 1998
 | |
| ------------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
| wxMSW:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Added IsNull to wxGDIObject to check if the ref data is present or not.
 | |
| - Added PNG handler and sample - doesn't work for 16-bit PNGs for
 | |
|   some reason :-(
 | |
| - Added wxJoystick class and event handling, and simple demo.
 | |
| - Added simple wxWave class. Needs Stop() function.
 | |
| - Added wxModule (module.h/module.cpp) to allow definition
 | |
|   of modules to be initialized and cleaned up on wxWidgets
 | |
|   startup/exit.
 | |
| - Start of Mingw32 compatibility (see minimal and dialogs samples
 | |
|   makefile.m95 files, and install.txt).
 | |
| - Note: Windows printing has stopped working... will investigate.
 | |
| VADIM'S CHANGES:
 | |
| - Updated wxString: bug fixes, added wxArrayString, some
 | |
|   compatibility functions.
 | |
| - Updated log.h/cpp, added wxApp::CreateLogTarget.
 | |
| - file.h: new wxTempFile class.
 | |
| - defs.h: added wxSB_SIZE_GRIP for wxStatusBar95
 | |
| - statbr95: wxStatusBar95 control.
 | |
| - registry.h/cpp: wxRegKey class for Win95 registry.
 | |
| - listbox.cpp: corrected some bugs with owner-drawn listboxes.
 | |
| - wxConfig and wxFileConfig classes.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Generic:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Added src/other/png, src/other/zlib directories.
 | |
| - Added samples/png.
 | |
| - IMPORTANT: Changed 'no id' number from 0 to -1, in wxEVT_ macros.
 | |
|   Porters, please check particularly your wxTreeCtrl and wxListCtrl
 | |
|   header files.
 | |
| - Added modules.h/cpp, config.cpp, fileconf.cpp, textfile.cpp/h.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Alpha 7, March 30th 1998
 | |
| ------------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
| wxMSW:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Added tab classes, tab sample.
 | |
| - Now can return FALSE from OnInit and windows will be
 | |
|   cleaned up properly before exit.
 | |
| - Improved border handling so panels don't get borders
 | |
|   automatically.
 | |
| - Debugged MDI activation from Window menu.
 | |
| - Changes to memory debug handling, including checking for
 | |
|   memory leaks on application exit - but see issues.txt for
 | |
|   unresolved issues.
 | |
| - Added wxTaskBarIcon (taskbar.cpp/h, plus samples/taskbar)
 | |
|   to allow maintenance of an icon in the Windows 95 taskbar
 | |
|   tray area.
 | |
| - Got MFC sample working (MFC and wxWidgets in the same
 | |
|   application), partly by tweaking ntwxwin.mak settings.
 | |
| - Got DLL compilation working again (VC++).
 | |
| - Changed wxProp/Dialog Editor filenames.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Generic:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Added tab classes, tab sample.
 | |
| - Revised memory.cpp, memory.h slightly; memory.h now #defines
 | |
|   new to WXDEBUG_NEW in DEBUG mode. Windows implementation app.cpp
 | |
|   now checks for leaks on exit. Added memcheck sample.
 | |
|   See src/msw/issues.txt for more details.
 | |
| - resource.h, resource.cpp changed to make wxDefaultResourceTable
 | |
|   a pointer. Now initialize resource system with
 | |
|   wxInitializeResourceSystem and wxCleanUpResourceSystem, to
 | |
|   allow better control of memory.
 | |
| - wxString now derives from wxObject, to enable memory leak
 | |
|   checking.
 | |
| - Added some #include fixes in various files, plus changed
 | |
|   float to long in wxToolBar files.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Alpha 6, March 10th 1998
 | |
| ------------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
| wxMSW:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Found stack error bug - stopped unwanted OnIdle recursion.
 | |
| - Removed bug in wxTreeCtrl::InsertItem I added in alpha 5.
 | |
| - Changed exit behaviour in wxApp/wxFrame/wxDialog. Now will
 | |
|   check if the number of top-level windows is zero before
 | |
|   exiting. Also, wxApp::GetTopWindow will return either
 | |
|   m_topWindow or the first member of wxTopLevelWindows, so you
 | |
|   don't have to call wxApp::SetTopWindow.
 | |
| - Added dynarray.h/dynarray.cpp (from Vadim).
 | |
| - Added first cut at OLE drag and drop (from Vadim). dnd sample
 | |
|   added. Drop target only at this stage. See src/msw/ole/*.cpp,
 | |
|   wx/include/msw/ole/*.h. WIN32 only because of UUID usage.
 | |
|   Doesn't work with GnuWin32 - no appropriate headers e.g. for
 | |
|   IUnknown.
 | |
|   Doesn't work with BC++ either - crashes on program startup.
 | |
| - Added Vadim's owner-draw modifications - will probably remain
 | |
|   Windows-only. This enhances wxMenu, wxListBox. See ownerdrw sample.
 | |
| - Added wxLB_OWNERDRAW for owner-draw listboxes.
 | |
| - Vadim's wxCheckListBox derives from wxListBox. See checklst sample.
 | |
|   Doesn't entirely work for WIN16.
 | |
| - Vadim has added wxMenuItem as a separate file menuitem.cpp. It
 | |
|   can also be used as an argument to wxMenu::Append, not just for
 | |
|   internal implementation.
 | |
| - Some #ifdefs done for MINGW32 compilation (just alter OPTIONS
 | |
|   in makeg95.env, together with mingw32.bat). However, resource
 | |
|   binding is not working yet so most apps with dialogs crash.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Generic:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Added Vadim's dynarray.h, dynarray.cpp.
 | |
| - Added Vadim's menuitem.cpp.
 | |
| - Added Windows-specific wxCheckListBox,
 | |
|   owner-draw wxListBox, and drag-and-drop
 | |
|   (see docs/msw/changes.txt).
 | |
| 
 | |
| Alpha 5, 14th February 1998
 | |
| --------------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
| wxMSW:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - GENERIC AND MSW-SPECIFIC CODE NOW TREATED AS TWO SEPARATE
 | |
|   DISTRIBUTIONS. This change log will therefore now refer to
 | |
|   the Windows-specific code only. See docs/changes.txt for generic
 | |
|   changes.
 | |
| - Removed Windows-specific reference counting system (GDI
 | |
|   resources were cleaned up in idle time) - minimal
 | |
|   advantages now we have a wxWin reference counting system.
 | |
| - Added missing WXDLLEXPORT keywords so DLL compilation works
 | |
|   again.
 | |
| - Removed most warnings for GnuWin32 compilation.
 | |
| - Added wxRegion/wxRegionIterator, but haven't yet used it in
 | |
|   e.g. wxDC.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Generic:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - GENERIC AND MSW-SPECIFIC CODE NOW TREATED AS TWO SEPARATE
 | |
|   DISTRIBUTIONS. This change log will therefore now refer to
 | |
|   the generic code only. See docs/msw/changes.txt for Windows-specific
 | |
|   changes.
 | |
| - Readmes, change logs and installation files now go in
 | |
|   platform-specific directories under docs, e.g. docs/msw,
 | |
|   docs/gtk.
 | |
| - Added DECLARE_APP and IMPLEMENT_APP macros so wxApp object gets
 | |
|   created dynamically, not as a global object.
 | |
| - Put wxColour into wx/msw/colour.h, src/msw/colour.cpp.
 | |
| - Changed names of some include/wx/generic headers to be
 | |
|   consistent and to conform to gcc pragma conventions. Also
 | |
|   changed choicesg.cpp to choicdgg.cpp.
 | |
| - Added gcc pragmas.
 | |
| - Added gtk inclusion in include/wx headers.
 | |
| - Added consistent file headings to source and headers.
 | |
| - Removed lang.cpp, lang.h and references to wxSTR_... variables;
 | |
|   added a few references to wxTransString.
 | |
| - Added operator to wxTransString that converts automatically
 | |
|   to wxString, so we can say e.g. wxMessageBox(wxTransString("Hello"), ...).
 | |
| - samples/internat now works (minimally).
 | |
| - Added wxMouseEvent::GetPosition and
 | |
|   wxMouseEvent::GetLogicalPosition, both returning wxPoints.
 | |
| - Made wxSize and wxRect contain longs not ints.
 | |
| - Cured some memory leaks (thanks Vadim).
 | |
| - Tidied up OnIdle and introduced RequestMore/MoreRequested so
 | |
|   will only keep processing OnIdle if it returns TRUE from
 | |
|   MoreRequested.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Alpha 4, 31st January 1998
 | |
| --------------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
| All:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - Changed wxDC functions to take longs instead of floats. GetSize now takes
 | |
|   integer pointers, plus a version that returns a wxSize.
 | |
| - const keyword added to various wxDC functions.
 | |
| - Under Windows, wxDC no longer has any knowledge of whether
 | |
|   an associated window is scrolled or not. Instead, the device
 | |
|   origin is set by wxScrolledWindow in wxScrolledWindow::PrepareDC.
 | |
| - wxScrolledWindow applications can optionally override the virtual OnDraw
 | |
|   function instead of using the OnPaint event handler. The wxDC passed to
 | |
|   OnDraw will be translated by PrepareDC to reflect scrolling.
 | |
|   When drawing outside of OnDraw, must call PrepareDC explicitly.
 | |
| - wxToolBarBase/wxToolBarSimple similarly changed to allow for
 | |
|   scrolling toolbars.
 | |
| - Integrated wxPostScriptDC patches for 1.xx by Chris Breeze,
 | |
|   to help printing with multiple pages.
 | |
| - IPC classes given base classes (wxConnectionBase etc.) which
 | |
|   define the API used by different implementations. DDE
 | |
|   implementation updated to use these base classes.
 | |
| - wxHelpInstance now separated into wxHelpControllerBase (base
 | |
|   for all implementations), wxWinHelpController (uses standard
 | |
|   WinHelp), wxXLPHelpController (talks to wxHelp by DDE or
 | |
|   TCP/IP). There will be others eventually, such as
 | |
|   wxHTMLHelpController for Microsoft (and Netscape?) HTML Help.
 | |
| - Added Vadim Zeitlin's wxString class plus
 | |
|   internationalization code (gettext simulation, wxLocale, etc.).
 | |
|   New files from Vadim:
 | |
|   include\wx\string.h
 | |
|   include\wx\debug.h
 | |
|   include\wx\file.h
 | |
|   include\wx\log.h
 | |
|   include\wx\intl.h
 | |
|   src\common\string.cpp
 | |
|   src\common\log.cpp
 | |
|   src\common\intl.cpp
 | |
|   src\common\file.cpp
 | |
|   No longer use GNU wxString files.
 | |
| - Split off file-related functions into include\wx\filefn.h and
 | |
|   src\common\filefn.cpp.
 | |
| - Borland C++ support (WIN32) for main library and
 | |
|   samples, using makefile.b32 files.
 | |
| - Preparation done for allowing BC++ to compile wxWin as a DLL,
 | |
|   including changes to defs.h.
 | |
| - wxIntPoint removed, wxPoint is now int, and wxRealPoint
 | |
|   introduced.
 | |
| - Added wxShowEvent (generated when window is being shown or
 | |
|   hidden).
 | |
| - Got minimal, docview, mdi samples working for 16-bit VC++ and
 | |
|   cured 16-bit problem with wxTextCtrl (removed global memory
 | |
|   trick).
 | |
| - Updated GnuWin32 makefiles, checked minimal, mdi, docview samples.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Alpha 3, September 1997
 | |
| -----------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
| All:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - wxListCtrl, wxTreeCtrl, wxImageList classes done.
 | |
| - Instigated new file hierarchy, split files and classes up more logically.
 | |
| - PrologIO and some other utils now put into core library.
 | |
| - Revamped print/preview classes, added wxPageSetupDialog.
 | |
| - Started documentation.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Alpha 2, 30th April 1997
 | |
| ------------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
| All:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - EVT_... macros now have at least one argument, for conformance
 | |
|   with MetroWerks compiler.
 | |
| - Added ids to .wxr file format.
 | |
| - Got Dialog Editor compiled and running again but need
 | |
|   to extend functionality to be in line with new controls.
 | |
|   Added dialoged\test app to allow dynamic loading of .wxr files
 | |
|   for testing purposes.
 | |
| - Rewrote wxBitmap to allow installable file type
 | |
|   handlers.
 | |
| - Rewrote wxBitmapButton, wxStaticBitmap to not use Fafa.
 | |
| - Wrote most of wxTreeCtrl and sample (need wxImageList to implement it
 | |
|   fully).
 | |
| - Added back wxRadioBox.
 | |
| - Tidied up wx_main.cpp, wxApp class, putting PenWin code in
 | |
|   a separate file.
 | |
|

| Alpha 1, 5th April 1997
 | |
| -----------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
| Generic:
 | |
| 
 | |
| At this point, the following has been achieved:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - A lot, but not all, of the code has been revamped for better
 | |
|   naming conventions, protection of data members, and use of
 | |
|   wxString instead of char *.
 | |
| - Obsolete functionality deleted (e.g. default wxPanel layout,
 | |
|   old system event system) and code size reduced.
 | |
| - Class hierarchy changed (see design doc) - base classes such
 | |
|   as wxbWindow now removed.
 | |
| - No longer includes windows.h in wxWin headers, by using stand-in
 | |
|   Windows types where needed e.g. WXHWND.
 | |
| - PrologIO revised.
 | |
| - wxScrolledWindow, wxStatusBar and new MDI classes added.
 | |
|   MDI is now achieved using separate classes, not window styles.
 | |
| - wxSystemSettings added, and made use of to reflect standard
 | |
|   Windows settings.
 | |
| - SetButtonFont/SetLabelFont replaced by SetFont; font and colour
 | |
|   settings mucho rationalised.
 | |
| - All windows are now subclassed with the same window proc to make
 | |
|   event handling far more consistent. Old internal wxWnd and derived
 | |
|   classes removed.
 | |
| - API for controls revised, in particular addition of
 | |
|   wxValidator parameters and removal of labels for some controls.
 | |
| - 1 validator written: see examples/validate.
 | |
| - Event table system introduced (see most samples and
 | |
|   wx_event.cpp/ProcessEvent, wx_event.h). wxEvtHandler
 | |
|   made more flexible, with Push/PopEventHandler allowing a chain
 | |
|   of event handlers.
 | |
| - wxRadioBox removed - will be added back soon.
 | |
| - Toolbar class hierarchy revised:
 | |
|   wxToolBarBase
 | |
|   wxToolBarSimple (= old wxToolBar)
 | |
|   wxToolBar95 (= old wxButtonBar under Win95)
 | |
|   wxToolBarMSW (= old wxButtonBar under WIN16/WIN32)
 | |
| - Constraint system debugged somewhat (sizers now work properly).
 | |
| - wxFileDialog, wxDirDialog added; other common dialogs now
 | |
|   have class equivalents. Generic colour and font dialogs
 | |
|   rewritten to not need obsolete panel layout.
 | |
| - .wxr resource system partially reinstated, though needs
 | |
|   an integer ID for controls. Hopefully the resource system
 | |
|   will be replaced by something better and more efficient
 | |
|   in the future.
 | |
| - Device contexts no longer stored with window and accessed
 | |
|   with GetDC - use wxClientDC, wxPaintDC, wxWindowDC stack
 | |
|   variables instead.
 | |
| - wxSlider uses trackbar class under Win95, and wxSL_LABELS flag
 | |
|   determines whether labels are shown. Other Win95-specific flags
 | |
|   introduced, e.g. for showing ticks.
 | |
| - Styles introduced for dealing with 3D effects per window, for
 | |
|   any window: all Win95 3D effects supported, plus transparent windows.
 | |
| - Major change to allow 3D effect support without CTL3D, under
 | |
|   Win95.
 | |
| - Bitmap versions of button and checkbox separated out into new
 | |
|   classes, but unimplemented as yet because I intend to remove
 | |
|   the need for Fafa - it apparently causes GPFs in Win95 OSR 2.
 | |
| - utils/wxprop classes working (except maybe wxPropertyFormView)
 | |
|   in preparation for use in Dialog Editor.
 | |
| - GNU-WIN32 compilation verified (a month or so ago).
