||
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.
|
||
|
||
- wxWindow::Freeze/Thaw() are not virtual any more, if you overrode them in
|
||
your code you need to override DoFreeze/Thaw() 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.
|
||
|
||
|
||
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.
|
||
|
||
|
||
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.
|
||
|
||
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.
|
||
|
||
- 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.
|
||
|
||
|
||

|
||
- Noticeably (by a factor of ~150) improve wxIPC classes performance.
|

||
|
||
All:
|
||
|
||

|
||
use accessors methods now (Mart Raudsepp)

|
||
- 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
|
||
behavior between Unicode and non-unicode builds
|
||
- BLOB example added to samples/db (thanks to Casey O'Donnell)
|
||
- use wxStream::GetLength() instead of deprecated GetSize()

|
||
- Added support to the wxODBC classes for Firebird 1.5 database

|
||
- wxSystemSettings::GetSystem*() members deprecated and replaced with
|
||
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.
|
||
- "Alt" key (VK_MENU) now results in WXK_ALT keyboard event, not WXK_MENU

|
||
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
|
||

|
||
- wxPuts() now correctly outputs trailing new line in Unicode build

wxGTK:
|
||
|
||
- Added printing support by way of using libgnomeprint. The library

|
||
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)
|
||

|
||
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

|
||
(see: "wxPalmOS porting challenge")

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)
|
||
|
||
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")
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
- 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.

||
- 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
|
||
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

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.

||
--------------------------
|
||
|
||
wxGTK:
|
||
|

|
||
- Cured scrolling display problem by adding XmUpdateDisplay.
|
||
- Tried to make lex-ing in the makefile more generic (command line
|
||
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
|
||
of malloc, which causes memory problems).
|
||
|
||
General:
|
||
|
||
- Further doc improvements.
|
||
- wxGenericValidator added.
|
||
- Added wxImageModule to image.cpp, so adds/cleans up standard handlers

General:
|
||
|
||
- Rearranged documentation a bit.
|
||
- Sash window uses area of first frame/dialog to paint over when drawing
|
||
the dragged sash, not just the sash window itself (it clipped to the right
|
||
or below).
|
||
- Made resource sample use the correct Cancel button id.
|
||
- Moved wxProp to main library (generic directory), created proplist
|
||
sample.
|
||
- Added bombs and fractal samples.
|
||
|
||
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.
|
||
|
||

|
||
- 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:

||
----------------------
|
||
|
||
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
|
||

Generic:
|
||
|
||
- Corrected some bugs, such as the wxModule compilation problem.
|
||

|
||
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).
|

||
- 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).
|
