2 | ---------------------- | |

4 | INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES SINCE 2.2.x |
5 | ================================ | |
6 | ||
461f203c VZ |
7 | wxBase: |
8 | ||
9 | - wxArray<T>::Remove(size_t) has been removed to fix compilation problems | |
10 | under 64 bit architectures, please replace it with RemoveAt() in your | |
11 | code. | |
12 | ||
0eeeb25f VZ |
13 | - wxArray<T> macros have been changed to fix runtime problems under 64 bit |
14 | architectures and as a side effect of this WX_DEFINE_ARRAY() can only be | |
15 | used now for the pointer types, WX_DEFINE_ARRAY_INT should be used for the | |
16 | arrays containing non-pointers. | |
17 | ||
19924e90 VZ |
18 | - wxObject::CopyObject() and Clone() methods were removed because they |
19 | simply don't make sense for all objects | |
20 | ||
21 | - wxEvent now has a pure virtual Clone() method which must be implemented | |
22 | by all derived classes, if you have user-defined event classes please | |
23 | add "wxEvent *Clone() const { return new MyEvent(*this); }" line to them | |
24 | ||
68fbbb7f VZ |
25 | - wxCondition now must be used with a mutex, please read the (updated) class |
26 | documentation for details and revise your code accordingly: this change was | |
27 | unfortunately needed as the old class didn't behave correctly in all cases | |
28 | ||
677eff07 VZ |
29 | - small change to wxStopWatch::Pause() semantics, please see the documentation |
30 | ||
a2d541ca VZ |
31 | - unlikely but possible incompatibility: the definition of TRUE has changed |
32 | from "1" to "(bool)1" (and the same thing for FALSE), so the code which | |
33 | could be erroneously compiled previously such as doing "return FALSE" from | |
34 | a function returning a pointer would stop compiling now (but this change | |
35 | is not supposed to have any effects on valid code) | |
6a9c3625 | 36 | |
d73e6791 VZ |
37 | All (GUI): |
38 | ||
eead3ccb VZ |
39 | - the event type constants are not constants any more but are dynamically |
40 | allocated during run-time which means that they can't be used as case labels | |
41 | in the switch()es, you must rewrite them to use if()s instead | |
42 | ||
43 | You may also define WXWIN_COMPATIBILITY_EVENT_TYPES to get the old behaviour | |
44 | but this is strongly discouraged, please consider changing your codei | |
45 | instead! | |
46 | ||
01a63363 VZ |
47 | - wxDialog does not derive from wxPanel any longer - if you were using it in |
48 | your code, please update it. The quick fix for the most cases is to replace | |
49 | the occurences of wxPanel with wxWindow. | |
50 | ||
a8141d3f VZ |
51 | - wxYES_NO is now wxYES | wxNO and the manifest values of both wxYES and wxNO |
52 | have changed (to fix some unfortunate clashes), please check your code to | |
53 | ensure that no tests for wxYES or wxNO are broken: for example, the following | |
54 | will *NOT* work any longer: | |
55 | ||
56 | if ( flags & wxYES_NO ) | |
57 | ... do something ... | |
58 | if ( flags & wxYES ) | |
59 | ... do something else ... | |
60 | ||
61 | - wxGLCanvas now derives directly from wxWindow, not wxScrolledWindow | |
62 | ||
63 | - wxGridCellAttrProvider class API changed, you will need to update your code | |
64 | if you derived any classes from it | |
65 | ||
d7af2fea VS |
66 | - wxImage::ComputeHistogram()'s signature changed to |
67 | unsigned long ComputeHistogram(wxImageHistogram&) const | |
68 | ||
cf72f75f VZ |
69 | - wxEvtHandler cannot be copied/assigned any longer - this never worked but |
70 | now it results in compile-time error instead of run-time crashes | |
71 | ||
1a65fc65 VZ |
72 | - WXK_NUMLOCK and WXK_SCROLL keys no longer result in EVT_CHAR() events, |
73 | they only generate EVT_KEY_DOWN/UP() ones | |
74 | ||
6a9c3625 VZ |
75 | - the dialogs use wxApp::GetTopWindow() as the parent implicitly if the |
76 | parent specified is NULL, use wxDIALOG_NO_PARENT style to prevent this | |
77 | from happening | |
78 | ||
79 | ||
461f203c VZ |
80 | wxMSW: |
81 | ||
82 | - build system changed: setup.h is not a static file in include/wx any more | |
83 | but is created as part of the build process under lib/<toolkit>/wx/include | |
84 | where <toolkit> is of the form (msw|univ)[dll][u][d]. You'll need to update | |
b239ffb9 VS |
85 | the include path in your make/project files appropriately. Furthermore, |
86 | xpm.lib is no longer used by wxMSW, it was superseded by the wxXPMDecoder | |
87 | class. You'll need to remove all references to xpm.lib from your | |
88 | make/project files. | |
461f203c | 89 | |
bbed9595 | 90 | - child frames appear in the taskbar by default now, use wxFRAME_NO_TASKBAR |
eead3ccb VZ |
91 | style to avoid it, wxFRAME_FLOAT_ON_PARENT style is now obsolete and has no |
92 | effect | |
bbed9595 | 93 | |
5230934a VZ |
94 | - all overloads of wxDC::SetClippingRegion() combine the given region with the |
95 | previously selected one instead of replacing it | |
96 | ||
05a6a882 VZ |
97 | - wxGetHomeDir() uses HOME environment variable and if it is set will not |
98 | return the programs directory any longer but its value (this function has | |
99 | never been meant to return the programs directory anyhow) | |
763f5546 VS |
100 | |
101 | - wxHTML apps don't need to include wx/html/msw/wxhtml.rc in resources file | |
102 | anymore. The file was removed from wxMSW | |
05a6a882 | 103 | |
6a9c3625 | 104 | |
f6656ccb VZ |
105 | Unix ports: |
106 | ||
107 | - You should use `wx-config --cxxflags` in your makefiles instead of | |
108 | `wx-config --cflags` for compiling C++ files. CXXFLAGS contains CFLAGS | |
109 | and the compiler flags for C++ files only, CFLAGS should still be used | |
110 | to compile pure C files. | |
111 | ||
