Composite windows, i.e. wxWindows composed of several HWNDs at MSW level, didn't handle focus events correctly and, for example, generated wxEVT_KILL_FOCUS event when the focus simply switched from wxComboBox itself to the EDIT control inside it, which broke using non-readonly wxComboBox as in-place editor inside wxDataViewCtrl. Check if the focus event notifies about the focus switching to, or from, another HWND belonging to the same window, and suppress wx event generation in this case as they don't make sense because the focus doesn't change at wx level. See #17034.
About
wxWidgets is a free and open source cross-platform C++ framework for writing advanced GUI applications using native controls.
wxWidgets allows you to write native-looking GUI applications for all the major desktop platforms and also helps with abstracting the differences in the non-GUI aspects between them. It is free for the use in both open source and commercial applications, comes with the full, easy to read and modify, source and extensive documentation and a collection of more than a hundred examples. You can learn more about wxWidgets at https://www.wxwidgets.org/ and read its documentation online at http://docs.wxwidgets.org/
