wxWindows 2.5/2.6 Change Log
----------------------------

INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES SINCE 2.4.x
================================

- no initialization/cleanup can be done in wxApp/~wxApp because they are
  now called much earlier/later than before; please move any exiting code
  from there to wxApp::OnInit()/OnExit()
- wxFileType::GetIcon() returns wxIconLocation, not wxIcon
