wxString iterators can't be dereferenced once they reach the end of the string, so compare them with end rather than checking if the value they point to is non-NUL. This makes wxFTP::Pwd() actually work, which was apparently broken since quite some time (perhaps ever sincec9f78968619+ years ago). See #17679. (cherry picked from commitd0c57dbef0)

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.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Table of contents of this section:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 - Unicode-related changes
 | 
						|
 - wxODBC and contrib libraries removal
 | 
						|
 - Changes in behaviour not resulting in compilation errors
 | 
						|
 - Build system changes
 | 
						|
 - Major new features in this release
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
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). If you want your
 | 
						|
  code to remain compatible with Unicode build of previous wx version, please
 | 
						|
  use the special wxT_2, which is the same as wxT in 2.x only, instead.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- 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 further 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!
 | 
						|
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- Don't pass wxString::c_str() to vararg functions any more! Due to Unicode
 | 
						|
  changes, c_str() now returns an object and not a simple char pointer, so
 | 
						|
  using it with vararg functions does not work any more. The preferred
 | 
						|
  solution is to use wx-provided equivalents, e.g. wxPrintf() instead of
 | 
						|
  printf() which has the added benefit that you don't need to call c_str()
 | 
						|
  any more and can pass wxString objects directly. If this is impossible,
 | 
						|
  add explicit casts to "const char*" or "const wchar_t*". See wxString
 | 
						|
  documentation for more details.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  Notice that using wxString::c_str() with vararg functions does result in
 | 
						|
  compilation errors with g++ and most other compilers but not MSVC. Try to
 | 
						|
  build your code with g++ to detect all such problems at compile-time.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- 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!
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- Revert to using equally-sized buttons in wxToolBar by default: restore the
 | 
						|
  behaviour of the pre-3.0 versions in which toolbar buttons had the same
 | 
						|
  width for the toolbars not using wxTB_HORZ_LAYOUT style. Toolbars with this
 | 
						|
  style still size their buttons appropriately for their contents as they
 | 
						|
  already did in the previous 3.0.x releases.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- 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.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- wxDialogs get wxEVT_SIZE events immediately after creation in wxMSW, as with
 | 
						|
  wxFrames. This means that this event handler may be called earlier than in
 | 
						|
  2.8, check that all the controls are initialized before using them in it.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- 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.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- wxLOCALE_CONV_ENCODING flag has no effect now, catalogs are converted
 | 
						|
  regardless of whether the flag was specified or not. This only affects
 | 
						|
  legacy ANSI builds.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- wxNotebook::GetSelection() returns the new page index when called from
 | 
						|
  wxEVT_COMMAND_NOTEBOOK_PAGE_CHANGED event handler in wxMSW, not the old one.
 | 
						|
  The new behaviour is consistent with wxGTK and more logical but different
 | 
						|
  from the previous versions. Using wxNotebookEvent::GetSelection() instead of
 | 
						|
  querying the notebook selection avoids the problem and is recommended.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- wxMSW-specific wxAutomationObject::GetInstance() method now creates a new
 | 
						|
  instance if needed instead of failing if the application providing the
 | 
						|
  requested ProgID is not running. Pass wxAutomationInstance_UseExistingOnly
 | 
						|
  flag to it to revert to the old behaviour. It is also possible to use the
 | 
						|
  wxAutomationInstance_SilentIfNone flag to prevent the error message if no
 | 
						|
  currently running instances of this object are available.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- Signature of wxDataViewCustomRenderer::StartDrag() virtual method changed.
 | 
						|
  You will need to change it in your derived renderer class too if you override
 | 
						|
  it.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- wxDataViewCustomRenderer::Activate() and LeftClick() were replaced with the
 | 
						|
  new ActivateCell() method. You will need to change it in your derived
 | 
						|
  renderer class accordingly.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- wxThread::Wait() and wxThread::Delete() used to dispatch the events while
 | 
						|
  waiting for the thread to exit in wxMSW. They still do it in default build
 | 
						|
  with WXWIN_COMPATIBILITY_2_8 defined but won't dispatch any events, i.e. the
 | 
						|
  default wait mode will become wxTHREAD_WAIT_BLOCK in the next wxWidgets
 | 
						|
  release so you are strongly encouraged to upgrade your code to stop relying
 | 
						|
  on this behaviour.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- wxEVT_CHAR_HOOK events are not generated any more if the mouse is captured to
 | 
						|
  prevent the parent wxTopLevelWindow from interfering with the keyboard
 | 
						|
  handling of the window that captured the mouse.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- wxDataViewCtrl::GetSelection() now returns invalid item in all ports (this
 | 
						|
  behaved differently in wxMSW and wxGTK/wxOSX before) if more than one item
 | 
						|
  is selected in a control with wxDV_MULTIPLE style.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- wxEVT_COMMAND_MENU_SELECTED, MENU_OPEN and CLOSE events returned a menu from
 | 
						|
  GetEventObject() in all ports but the frame the menu was attached to in wxMSW.
 | 
						|
  Now all ports return the menu that was opened or closed as the event object.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- wxAny now uses C locale format for the floating point numbers and not the
 | 
						|
  current locale one, i.e. decimal point is always used.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- wxGridBagSizer::AddGrowable{Col,Row}() must now be called after the items are
 | 
						|
  added to the sizer, i.e. the columns and rows already exist.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- wxWindow::FindWindow() skips over top level children now as finding a child
 | 
						|
  dialog when looking for a child control could have been very unexpected.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
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
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- WXWIN_COMPATIBILITY_2_6 still exists but is 0 by default in this release and
 | 
						|
  will be removed in 3.2. You can set it to 1 and rebuild wxWidgets to access
 | 
						|
  the old and deprecated symbols but please consider updating your code
 | 
						|
  instead. Here are replacements for some of the obsolete symbols:
 | 
						|
   + wxSAVE and wxOPEN -> wxFD_SAVE and wxFD_OPEN
 | 
						|
   + WXK_PRIOR and WXK_NEXT -> WXK_PAGEUP and WXK_PAGEDOWN
 | 
						|
   + wxRESIZE_BOX -> wxMAXIMIZE_BOX
 | 
						|
   + wxTHICK_FRAME -> wxRESIZE_BORDER
 | 
						|
   + wxPROCESS_ENTER and wxPASSWORD -> wxTE_PROCESS_ENTER and wxTE_PASSWORD
 | 
						|
   + EVT_SCROLL_ENDSCROLL -> EVT_SCROLL_CHANGED
 | 
						|
   + NewControlId -> wxWindow::NewControlId()
 | 
						|
   + wxFileHistory::GetNoHistoryFiles() -> wxFileHistory::GetCount()
 | 
						|
   + wxSizerItem::SetOption() -> wxSizerItem::SetProportion()
 | 
						|
   + wxSizer::Remove(wxWindow*) -> wxSizer::Detach()
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- 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() : "")
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- wxDateTime::ParseXXX() overloads don't return anything when called with
 | 
						|
  wxCStrData argument. If you need to test the parsing success, use a newer
 | 
						|
  overload taking wxString::const_iterator and returning bool or explicitly
 | 
						|
  select a narrow or wide char version to use by casting c_str() to either
 | 
						|
  "char*" or "wchar_t*". Or create a temporary wxString and parse it instead.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- 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 be 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.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- wxVariantData 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 bool 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.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- wxST_MARKUP doesn't exist any more, use wxControl::SetLabelMarkup() instead.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- wxComboBox::IsEmpty(), which was previously available in some ports (but not
 | 
						|
  wxMSW), doesn't exist any more, use either IsListEmpty() or IsTextEmpty().
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- wxSingleChoiceDialog ctors and Create() now have 2 overloaded versions: one
 | 
						|
  taking void** client data and the deprecated one taking char**. This can
 | 
						|
  result in compilation errors due to an ambiguity between them if you pass
 | 
						|
  NULL as client data. To fix this, cast NULL explicitly to "void**".
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- wxChoicebookEvent, wxListbookEvent, wxNotebookEvent, wxToolbookEvent and
 | 
						|
  wxTreebookEvent are now all synonyms for wxBookCtrlEvent. The existing code
 | 
						|
  using the old names continues to work but they can't be forward-declared
 | 
						|
  any more. Use wxBookCtrlEvent in your code if you need to forward-declare
 | 
						|
  it or just include the appropriate header instead of forward declaration.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- wxStandardPaths class can't be created now. This was never the right thing
 | 
						|
  to do, wxStandardPaths::Get() always had to be used to access the global
 | 
						|
  object of the correct type but now doing it results in a compilation error.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
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.
 | 
						|
- Second parameter of wxSlider::SetTickFreq(int n, int pos) is deprecated,
 | 
						|
  simply remove it from your code and use wxSlider::SetTickFreq(int n) as it
 | 
						|
  was never used anyhow.
 | 
						|
- wxSingleChoiceDialog ctor and Create() take "void**" client data pointer
 | 
						|
  instead of "char**". As the client data is typically untyped, you should
 | 
						|
  simply remove the casts to "char**" which you probably have in your code if
 | 
						|
  you use these functions.
 | 
						|
- wxDataViewCtrl::StartEditor(item, n) taking column index is now deprecated,
 | 
						|
  use EditItem(item, GetColumn(n)), which takes the column itself, instead.
 | 
						|
- wxWindow::MakeModal() is deprecated, use wxDialog::ShowModal() instead if
 | 
						|
  possible or wxWindowDisabler otherwise.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Changes in behaviour visible to end users
 | 
						|
-----------------------------------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- wxTextCtrl::SaveFile() now creates UTF-8-encoded files instead of using the
 | 
						|
  default locale encoding. This ensures that the entire text control contents
 | 
						|
  can be saved and is consistent with the use of UTF-8 by default in the other
 | 
						|
  places, notably DoLoadFile(), but is a change since the previous versions.
 | 
						|
  If you need the old behaviour, consider calling wxFFile::Write() explicitly
 | 
						|
  with wxConvCurrent conversion parameter.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- In wxMSW wxSpinCtrl used to prevent the user from entering more digits than
 | 
						|
  could fit in its visible area. This was inconsistent with the other ports and
 | 
						|
  now the control scrolls if too much text is added.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Build system changes
 | 
						|
--------------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- Cocoa is now used by default under OS X instead of Carbon. Pass --with-carbon
 | 
						|
  option to configure to use wxCarbon.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- In wxMSW makefile builds, "_x64" is used instead of "_amd64" when compiling
 | 
						|
  for this architecture in the architecture-specific paths and library names.
 | 
						|
  TARGET_CPU can still be specified as "amd64" for compatibility but "x64"
 | 
						|
  should be used now.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- Official wxMSW binaries, i.e. those built with OFFICIAL_BUILD=1, built with
 | 
						|
  MSVC now include the version of the compiler used and the architecture if
 | 
						|
  it's not the default "x86". E.g. a library built with MSVC 10 for amd64 is
 | 
						|
  called "wxbase294ud_vc110_amd64.dll" now.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- MSVC projects don't include neither wxUniversal nor ANSI (non-Unicode)
 | 
						|
  configurations any more. The simplest way to build wxWidgets in these
 | 
						|
  configurations if you need them is to use nmake from the command line with
 | 
						|
  WXUNIV=1 or UNICODE=0 command line parameter respectively.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- The manifest is not included by wx/msw/wx.rc any longer for MSVC compiler.
 | 
						|
  If you're using MSVC 6 or 7 which require it, you must explicitly define
 | 
						|
  wxUSE_RC_MANIFEST=1 and also predefine WX_CPU_X86 in the resource compiler
 | 
						|
  options in your project file.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
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 webview library, implementing wxWebView: a wrapper for the native
 | 
						|
  platform web engine with full support for HTML and JavaScript.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- 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.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|

 | 
						|

2.5.4
 | 
						|
-----
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
All:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- wxEvent and derived classes don't have public members any more, you must
 | 
						|
  use accessors methods now (Mart Raudsepp)
 | 
						|
- new classes for reading and writing ZIP files (M.J.Wetherell)
 | 
						|
- large files support for wxFFile (M.J.Wetherell)
 | 
						|

 | 
						|
- Norwegian (Bokmål) translation added (Hans F. Nordhaug)
 |

 | 
						|
- added wxURI, a class for dealing with Uniform Resource Identifiers
 | 
						|
- changed wxURL to inherit from wxURI and provide assignment and comparison
 | 
						|
- implemented wxConvUTF7 (modified patch from Fredrik Roubert)
 | 
						|
- added versions of MB2WC and WC2MB for wxMBConv that works for embedded null chars
 | 
						|
- Unicode support in wxODBC is now fully implemented
 | 
						|
- A new data type specific to wxWidgets called SQL_C_WXCHAR has been introduced.
 | 
						|
  SQL_C_WXCHAR should be used rather than SQL_C_CHAR to ensure transparent
 | 
						|
  behaviour between Unicode and non-unicode builds
 | 
						|
- BLOB example added to samples/db (thanks to Casey O'Donnell)
 | 
						|
- use wxStream::GetLength() instead of deprecated GetSize()
 | 
						|

 | 
						|
- XRC supports system fonts and colours (Ray Gilbert)
 | 
						|
- Added flags argument to wxKill/wxProcess::Kill to kill child processes.
 | 
						|
- Added wxPrintFactory classes so that it is possible to add a new
 | 
						|
  print system backend at run-time. This was required by the new GNOME
 | 
						|
  printing stuff in the GTK port.
 | 
						|
- Deprecated print setup dialog.
 | 
						|
- Added support to the wxODBC classes for Firebird 1.5 database
 |

 | 
						|
- wxGetPowerType() and wxGetBatteryState() addition
 | 
						|

						|
  wxSystemSettings::Get*()
 | 
						|
- wxWindowBase::DoGetBestSize now includes the difference (if any) between
 | 
						|
  the client size and total size of the window.  Code that sets the
 | 
						|
  client size using the best size, or that added extra space to sizers
 | 
						|
  to compensate for this bug may need to be changed.
 | 
						|
- Changed calculation of scrolling area to not clip away some bits
 | 
						|
  due to a rounding error.
 | 
						|
- Changed GetVirtualSize() to return client size by default until
 | 
						|
  SetVirtualSize() gets called. From then on it will only return that.
 | 
						|
- Various changes to how wxListCtrl and wxTreeCtrl react to right
 | 
						|
  mouse clicks and left mouse click for starting a drag operation.
 | 
						|

 | 
						|
- wxLayoutConstraints now use best size, not current size, for AsIs() condition
 | 
						|

 | 
						|
  item remembers its wxRect area (Brian A. Vanderburg II)
 | 
						|
- wxBookCtrl renamed to wxBookCtrlBase, wxBookCtrl is reserved for most native
 | 
						|
  book control (for now wxChoicebook for MSSmartphone, wxNotebook for others).
 | 
						|
  Necessary event macros, types and styles mapped accordingly.
 | 
						|
- new wxBrush::IsHatch() checking for brush type replaces IS_HATCH macro
 | 
						|
- wxProgressDialog accepts smooth gauge again (wxPD_SMOOTH style)
 | 
						|
- wxProgressDialog new style: wxPD_CAN_SKIP which provides skipping some parts
 | 
						|
  of the progress (with new "Skip" button in dialog)
 | 
						|

 | 
						|
  in wxMSW version (Gunnar Roth)
 | 
						|
- added wxImage::InitAlpha()
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Unix:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- wxPuts() now correctly outputs trailing new line in Unicode build
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
wxGTK:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- Added printing support by way of using libgnomeprint. The library
 | 
						|
  now checks at runtime, if the library is installed and will use it
 | 
						|
  if it is. Otherwise, it will fall back to the old PostScript printing
 | 
						|
  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)
 | 
						|
- implemented wxTextCtrl::Freeze() and Thaw(). The GtkTextBuffer
 | 
						|
  is not a valid one during frozen state. Get a pointer to it right
 | 
						|
  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)
 | 
						|
- Added wxRawBitmap support
 | 
						|
- Corrected Input method handler code (for Chinese etc.) and its
 | 
						|
  interaction with wxWidgets' events.
 | 
						|
- wxTE_AUTO_URL implemention for wxGTK2 multiline wxTextCtrls (Mart Raudsepp)
 | 
						|

 | 
						|

 | 
						|
- added wxRegKey::Export(file)
 | 
						|

 | 
						|

 | 
						|
  but not mentioned anywhere.

 | 
						|
- wxLB_SORT and wxCB_SORT now cause case-insensitive sorting
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
wxPalmOS:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- William Osborne has won and new port was born
 | 
						|
  (see: "wxPalmOS porting challenge")
 | 
						|
- polishing of the port (unnecessary 2.4 API compatibility, removed
 | 
						|
  all wxMSW specific code which was base for the new port)
 | 
						|
- enumeration of available volumes
 | 
						|
- native wxPrefConfig around Preferences database

 | 
						|

2.5.2
 | 
						|
-----
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
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)
 | 
						|
- subindented paragraphs support (Tim Kosse)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
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)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|

 | 
						|
 | 
						|

 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Unix:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|

 | 
						|
- added "wx-config --libs=std,<extra>" syntax (i.e. support for "std")
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
wxODBC:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- Full Unicode support is now available
 | 
						|
- BLOB support is working
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|

 | 
						|
  GetBottomRight (Hajo Kirchhoff)

-----
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
All:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- It is now possible to build several smaller libraries instead of single
 |

  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
 | 
						|
  both with wxUSE_STL==1 and wxUSE_STL==0.
 | 
						|

 | 
						|
- Minor improvements to document/view framework, including

  the file history, including not adding filenames if not using the
 | 
						|
  default extension for the template

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

  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
 |

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.
 | 
						|

  syntax should apply to both lex and flex).
 | 
						|
- Changed file selector colours for consistency (except for buttons:
 | 
						|
  crashes for some reason).
 | 
						|
- Fixed wxMotif version of wxImage::ConvertToBitmap (used new instead
 | 
						|

General:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- Further doc improvements.
 | 
						|
- wxGenericValidator added.
 |

 | 
						|
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.

 | 
						|
  have a white background.
 | 
						|

						|
- Cured wxTreeCtrl bug: now works pretty well!
 | 
						|

 | 
						|

 | 
						|
- 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 15, August 31st 1998
 | 
						|
--------------------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
wxMSW:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- wxBitmap debugged.
 | 
						|
- wxDC::GetDepth added.
 | 
						|

 | 
						|
  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
 | 
						|

 | 
						|
 | 
						|
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.
 |

 | 
						|
 | 
						|
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).
