137 | - Changed file selector colours for consistency (except for buttons: | |
138 | crashes for some reason). | |
139 | - Fixed wxMotif version of wxImage::ConvertToBitmap (used new instead | |
140 | of malloc, which causes memory problems). | |

144 | - Further doc improvements. | |
145 | - wxGenericValidator added. | |

183 | |
184 | wxGTK: | |
185 | ||
186 | wxMSW: | |
187 | ||
188 | - 16-bit BC++ compilation/linking works albeit without the resource system. | |
189 | ||
190 | wxMotif: | |
191 | ||
192 | - Cured wxScreenDC origin problem so e.g. sash window sash is drawn at | |
193 | the right place. | |
194 | - Cured some widget table clashes. | |

197 | ||
198 | General: | |

215 | ||
216 | wxMSW, wxMotif: not in sync with this release. | |
217 | ||
218 | ||
e3a43801 JS |
219 | Alpha 18, December 29th 1998 |
220 | ---------------------------- | |
221 | ||
222 | wxMSW: | |
223 | ||
224 | - Win16 support working again (VC++ 1.5) | |
225 | - Win16 now uses generic wxNotebook, wxListCtrl, | |
226 | wxTreeCtrl -- more or less working now, although | |
227 | a little work on wxNotebook is still needed. | |
228 | Under 16-bit Windows, get assertion when you click | |
229 | on a tab. | |
230 | - Wrote 16-bit BC++ makefiles: samples don't yet link. | |
231 | - Added CodeWarrior support to distribution courtesy | |
232 | of Stefan Csomor. | |
233 | ||
234 | wxMotif: | |
235 | ||
236 | - Cured scrolling problem: scrollbars now show/hide themselves | |
237 | without (permanently) resizing the window. | |
238 | - Removed some commented-out lines in wxScrolledWindow::AdjustScrollbars | |
239 | that disabled scrollbar paging. | |
240 | - Set background colour of drawing area in wxWindow, so e.g. wxListCtrl | |
241 | colours correctly. | |
242 | - Removed major bug whereby dialogs were unmanaged automatically | |
243 | when any button was pressed. | |
244 | - Fixed colours of wxWindow scrollbars, made list and text controls | |
245 | have a white background. | |
246 | - Fixed dialog colour setting. | |
247 | - Added settable fonts and colours for wxMenu/wxMenuBar. Now | |
248 | they have sensible colours by default. | |
249 | - Fixed a bug in wxStaticBox. | |
250 | - Cured wxTreeCtrl bug: now works pretty well! | |
251 | - Debugged DrawEllipticArc (a ! in the wrong place). | |
252 | - Added SetClippingRegion( const wxRegion& region ). | |
253 | - Added wxPoint, wxSize, wxRect versions of SetSize etc. | |
254 | ||
255 | Alpha 17, November 22nd 1998 | |
256 | ---------------------------- | |
257 | ||
258 | wxMSW: | |
259 | ||
260 | - More documentation updates, especially for | |
261 | wxLayoutWindow classes and debugging facilities. | |
262 | - Changed wxDebugContext to use wxDebugLog instead | |
263 | of wxTrace. | |
264 | - Now supports VC++ 6.0, and hopefully BC++ 5.0. | |
265 | However, DLL support may be broken for BC++ since | |
266 | VC++ 6 required changing of WXDLLEXPORT keyword | |
267 | position. | |
268 | - Numerous miscellaneous changes. | |
269 | ||
270 | wxMotif: | |
271 | ||
272 | - Reimplemented MDI using wxNotebook instead of the MDI widgets, which | |
273 | were too buggy (probably not design for dynamic addition/removal of | |
274 | child frames). | |
275 | - Some improvements to the wxNotebook implementation. | |
276 | - wxToolBar now uses a bulletin board instead of a form, in an attempt | |
277 | to make it possible to add ordinary wxControls to a toolbar. | |
278 | - Cured problem with not being able to use global memory operators, | |
279 | by defining two more global operators, so that the delete will match | |
280 | the debugging implementation. | |
281 | - Added wxUSE_DEBUG_NEW_ALWAYS so we can distinguish between using | |
282 | global memory operators (usually OK) and #defining new to be | |
283 | WXDEBUG_NEW (sometimes it might not be OK). | |
284 | - Added time.cpp to makefile; set wxUSE_DATETIME to 1. | |
285 | - Added a parent-existance check to popup menu code to make it not crash. | |
286 | - Added some optimization in wxWindow::SetSize to produce less flicker. | |
287 | It remains to be seen whether this produces any resize bugs. | |
288 | ||
289 | It's a long time since I updated this file. Previously done: | |
290 | ||
291 | - wxFrame, wxDialog done. | |
292 | - wxScrolledWindow done (but backing pixmap not used at present). | |
293 | - wxBitmap done though could be tidied it up at some point. | |
294 | - Most basic controls are there, if not rigorously tested. | |
295 | - Some MDI support (menus appear on child frames at present). | |
296 | - wxNotebook almost done. | |
297 | - wxToolBar done (horizontal only, which would be easy to extend | |
298 | to vertical toolbars). | |
299 | ||
300 | More recently: | |
301 | ||
302 | - Colour and font changing done (question mark over what happens | |
303 | to scrollbars). | |
304 | - Accelerators done (for menu items and buttons). Also event loop | |
305 | tidied up in wxApp so that events are filtered through ProcessXEvent. | |
306 | - wxWindow::GetUpdateRegion should now work. | |
307 | ||
308 | Alpha 16, September 8th 1998 | |
309 | ---------------------------- | |
310 | ||
311 | wxMSW: | |
312 | ||

314 | sample. | |
315 | - Guilhem's socket classes added, plus wxsocket sample. | |
316 | - A few more makefiles added. | |
317 | - GnuWin32/BC++ compatibility mods. | |
318 | - Further doc updates. | |
319 | - wxProp updates for correct working with wxGTK. | |
320 | ||
321 | wxMotif: | |
322 | ||
323 | - First start at Motif port. | |
324 | - Made makefiles for wxMotif source directory and minimal sample. | |
325 | - First go at wxApp, wxWindow, wxDialog, wxPen, wxBrush, wxFont, | |
326 | wxColour, wxButton, wxCheckBox, wxTextCtrl, wxStaticText, | |
327 | wxMenu, wxMenuItem, wxMenuBar | |
328 | ||
329 | Alpha 15, August 31st 1998 | |
330 | -------------------------- | |
331 | ||
332 | wxMSW: | |
333 | ||
334 | - wxBitmap debugged. | |
335 | - wxDC::GetDepth added. | |
336 | - Contribution added whereby wxBitmap will be | |
337 | converted to DC depth if they don't match. | |
338 | - wxConfig API improved, documentation updated. | |
339 | - Printing classes name conventions cleaned up. | |
340 | - wxUpdateUIEvent now derives from wxCommandEvent | |
341 | so event can travel up the window hierachy. | |
342 | ||
343 | Alpha 14, July 31st 1998 | |
344 | ------------------------ | |
345 | ||
346 | wxMSW: | |
347 | ||
348 | - Toolbar API has been simplified, and now | |
349 | wxFrame::GetClientArea returns the available client | |
350 | area when toolbar, status bar etc. have been accounted for. | |
351 | wxFrame::CreateToolBar added in line with CreateStatusBar. | |
352 | - Documentation updates, incl. for wxToolBar. | |
353 | - New wxAcceleratorTable class plus wxFrame::SetAcceleratorTable. | |
354 | - Various additions from other folk, e.g. streams, wxConfig | |
355 | changes, wxNotebook. | |
356 | - Added wxDocMDIParentFrame, wxDocMDIChildFrame for doc/view. | |
357 | ||
358 | Alpha 13, July 8th 1998 | |
359 | ----------------------- | |
360 | ||
361 | wxMSW: | |
362 | ||
363 | - Implemented wxPoint as identical to POINT on Windows, and | |
364 | altered wxDC wxPoint functions to use wxPoint directly in | |
365 | Windows functions, for efficiency. | |
366 | - Cured wxASSERT bug in wxStatusBar95. | |
367 | - #ifdefed out some bits in oleutils.cpp for compilers that | |
368 | don't support it. | |
369 | - Added some operators to wxPoint, wxSize. | |
370 | - Added inline wxDC functions using wxPoint, wxSize, wxRect. | |
371 | ||
372 | Alpha 12, July 7th 1998 | |
373 | ----------------------- | |
374 | ||
375 | wxMSW: | |
c801d85f | 376 | |
e3a43801 JS |
377 | - Added wxApp::GetComCtl32Version, and wxTB_FLAT style, so can |
378 | have flat toolbars on Win98 or Win95 with IE >= 3 installed. | |
c801d85f | 379 | |
884360bc JS |
380 | Alpha 11, July 3rd 1998 |
381 | ----------------------- | |
382 | ||
e3a43801 JS |
383 | wxMSW: |
384 | ||
385 | - Added thread.h, thread.cpp. | |
386 | - Changed Enabled, Checked to IsEnabled, IsChecked in wxMenu, | |
387 | wxMenuBar. | |
388 | - Changed wxMenuItem::SetBackColor to SetBackgroundColour, | |
389 | SetTextColor to SetTextColour, and added or made public several | |
390 | wxMenuItem accessors. | |
391 | - Added two overloads to wxRegion::Contains. Added | |
392 | wxRegion::IsEmpty for a more consistent naming convention. | |
393 | - Added Vadim's wxDataObject and wxDropSource. | |
394 | - ENTER/LEAVE events now work. | |
395 | - Cured wxMemoryDC bug where the DC wasn't being deleted. | |
396 | - Cured wxGauge SetSize major bugginess. | |
397 | - Cured problem where if a GDI object was created on the stack, | |
398 | then went out of scope, then another object was selected into | |
399 | the DC, GDI objects would leak. This is because the assignment | |
400 | to e.g. wxDC::m_pen would delete the GDI object without it first | |
401 | being selected out of the DC. Cured by selecting the old DC object | |
402 | first, then doing the assignment. | |
403 | - Split up wxGaugeMSW, wxGauge95, wxSliderMSW, wxSlider95 | |
404 | - Various other bug fixes and additions. | |
405 | ||
406 | Generic: | |
407 | ||

411 | Alpha 10, May 7th 1998 |
412 | ---------------------- | |
413 | ||
414 | wxMSW: | |
415 | ||
416 | - Added desiredWidth, desiredHeight parameters to wxBitmapHandler | |
417 | and wxIcon functions so that you can specify what size of | |
418 | icon should be loaded. Probably will remain a Windows-specific thing. | |
419 | - wxStatusBar95 now works for MDI frames. | |
420 | - Toolbars in MDI frames now behave normally. They still | |
421 | require application-supplied positioning code though. | |
422 | - Changed installation instructions, makefiles and batch files | |
423 | for compiling with Gnu-Win32/Mingw32/EGCS. Also timercmn.cpp | |
424 | change to support Mingw32/EGCS. Bison now used by default. | |
425 | ||

434 | compilation and pragmas. | |
435 | - Cured wxMenu bug introduced in alpha 8 - didn't respond to | |

e3a43801 JS |
448 | wxMSW: |
449 | ||
450 | - Added IsNull to wxGDIObject to check if the ref data is present or not. | |
451 | - Added PNG handler and sample - doesn't work for 16-bit PNGs for | |
452 | some reason :-( | |
453 | - Added wxJoystick class and event handling, and simple demo. | |
454 | - Added simple wxWave class. Needs Stop() function. | |
455 | - Added wxModule (module.h/module.cpp) to allow definition | |
456 | of modules to be initialized and cleaned up on wxWindows | |
457 | startup/exit. | |

484 | wxMSW: |
485 | ||
486 | - Added tab classes, tab sample. | |
487 | - Now can return FALSE from OnInit and windows will be | |
488 | cleaned up properly before exit. | |
489 | - Improved border handling so panels don't get borders | |
490 | automatically. | |
491 | - Debugged MDI activation from Window menu. | |
492 | - Changes to memory debug handling, including checking for | |
493 | memory leaks on application exit - but see issues.txt for | |
494 | unresolved issues. | |
495 | - Added wxTaskBarIcon (taskbar.cpp/h, plus samples/taskbar) | |
496 | to allow maintenance of an icon in the Windows 95 taskbar | |
497 | tray area. | |
498 | - Got MFC sample working (MFC and wxWindows in the same | |
499 | application), partly by tweaking ntwxwin.mak settings. | |
500 | - Got DLL compilation working again (VC++). | |
501 | - Changed wxProp/Dialog Editor filenames. | |
502 | ||
503 | Generic: | |

c801d85f KB |
505 | - Added tab classes, tab sample. |
506 | - Revised memory.cpp, memory.h slightly; memory.h now #defines | |
507 | new to WXDEBUG_NEW in DEBUG mode. Windows implementation app.cpp | |
508 | now checks for leaks on exit. Added memcheck sample. | |
509 | See src/msw/issues.txt for more details. | |
510 | - resource.h, resource.cpp changed to make wxDefaultResourceTable | |
511 | a pointer. Now initialize resource system with | |
512 | wxInitializeResourceSystem and wxCleanUpResourceSystem, to | |
513 | allow better control of memory. | |
514 | - wxString now derives from wxObject, to enable memory leak | |
515 | checking. | |
516 | - Added some #include fixes in various files, plus changed | |
517 | float to long in wxToolBar files. | |

522 | wxMSW: |
523 | ||
524 | - Found stack error bug - stopped unwanted OnIdle recursion. | |
525 | - Removed bug in wxTreeCtrl::InsertItem I added in alpha 5. | |
526 | - Changed exit behaviour in wxApp/wxFrame/wxDialog. Now will | |
527 | check if the number of top-level windows is zero before | |
528 | exiting. Also, wxApp::GetTopWindow will return either | |
529 | m_topWindow or the first member of wxTopLevelWindows, so you | |
530 | don't have to call wxApp::SetTopWindow. | |
531 | - Added dynarray.h/dynarray.cpp (from Vadim). | |
532 | - Added first cut at OLE drag and drop (from Vadim). dnd sample | |
533 | added. Drop target only at this stage. See src/msw/ole/*.cpp, | |
534 | wx/include/msw/ole/*.h. WIN32 only because of UUID usage. | |
535 | Doesn't work with GnuWin32 - no appropriate headers e.g. for | |
536 | IUnknown. | |
537 | Doesn't work with BC++ either - crashes on program startup. | |
538 | - Added Vadim's owner-draw modifications - will probably remain | |
539 | Windows-only. This enhances wxMenu, wxListBox. See ownerdrw sample. | |
540 | - Added wxLB_OWNERDRAW for owner-draw listboxes. | |
541 | - Vadim's wxCheckListBox derives from wxListBox. See checklst sample. | |
542 | Doesn't entirely work for WIN16. | |
543 | - Vadim has added wxMenuItem as a separate file menuitem.cpp. It | |
544 | can also be used as an argument to wxMenu::Append, not just for | |
545 | internal implementation. | |
546 | - Some #ifdefs done for MINGW32 compilation (just alter OPTIONS | |
547 | in makeg95.env, together with mingw32.bat). However, resource | |
548 | binding is not working yet so most apps with dialogs crash. | |
549 | ||
550 | Generic: | |
551 | ||
c801d85f KB |
552 | - Added Vadim's dynarray.h, dynarray.cpp. |
553 | - Added Vadim's menuitem.cpp. | |
554 | - Added Windows-specific wxCheckListBox, | |
555 | owner-draw wxListBox, and drag-and-drop | |
556 | (see docs/msw/changes.txt). | |

563 | - GENERIC AND MSW-SPECIFIC CODE NOW TREATED AS TWO SEPARATE | |
564 | DISTRIBUTIONS. This change log will therefore now refer to | |
565 | the Windows-specific code only. See docs/changes.txt for generic | |
566 | changes. | |
567 | - Removed Windows-specific reference counting system (GDI | |
568 | resources were cleaned up in idle time) - minimal | |
569 | advantages now we have a wxWin reference counting system. | |
570 | - Added missing WXDLLEXPORT keywords so DLL compilation works | |
571 | again. | |
572 | - Removed most warnings for GnuWin32 compilation. | |
573 | - Added wxRegion/wxRegionIterator, but haven't yet used it in | |
574 | e.g. wxDC. | |

579 | DISTRIBUTIONS. This change log will therefore now refer to | |
580 | the generic code only. See docs/msw/changes.txt for Windows-specific | |
581 | changes. | |
582 | - Readmes, change logs and installation files now go in | |
583 | platform-specific directories under docs, e.g. docs/msw, | |
584 | docs/gtk. | |
585 | - Added DECLARE_APP and IMPLEMENT_APP macros so wxApp object gets | |
586 | created dynamically, not as a global object. | |
587 | - Put wxColour into wx/msw/colour.h, src/msw/colour.cpp. | |
588 | - Changed names of some include/wx/generic headers to be | |
589 | consistent and to conform to gcc pragma conventions. Also | |
590 | changed choicesg.cpp to choicdgg.cpp. | |
591 | - Added gcc pragmas. | |
592 | - Added gtk inclusion in include/wx headers. | |
593 | - Added consistent file headings to source and headers. | |
594 | - Removed lang.cpp, lang.h and references to wxSTR_... variables; | |
595 | added a few references to wxTransString. | |
596 | - Added operator to wxTransString that converts automatically | |
597 | to wxString, so we can say e.g. wxMessageBox(wxTransString("Hello"), ...). | |
598 | - samples/internat now works (minimally). | |
599 | - Added wxMouseEvent::GetPosition and | |
600 | wxMouseEvent::GetLogicalPosition, both returning wxPoints. | |
601 | - Made wxSize and wxRect contain longs not ints. | |
602 | - Cured some lemory leaks (thanks Vadim). | |
603 | - Tidied up OnIdle and introduced RequestMore/MoreRequested so | |
604 | will only keep processing OnIdle if it returns TRUE from | |
605 | MoreRequested. | |

612 | - Changed wxDC functions to take longs instead of floats. GetSize now takes |
613 | integer pointers, plus a version that returns a wxSize. | |
614 | - const keyword added to various wxDC functions. | |
615 | - Under Windows, wxDC no longer has any knowledge of whether | |
616 | an associated window is scrolled or not. Instead, the device | |
617 | origin is set by wxScrolledWindow in wxScrolledWindow::PrepareDC. | |
618 | - wxScrolledWindow applications can optionally override the virtual OnDraw | |
619 | function instead of using the OnPaint event handler. The wxDC passed to | |
620 | OnDraw will be translated by PrepareDC to reflect scrolling. | |
621 | When drawing outside of OnDraw, must call PrepareDC explicitly. | |
622 | - wxToolBarBase/wxToolBarSimple similarly changed to allow for | |
623 | scrolling toolbars. | |
624 | - Integrated wxPostScriptDC patches for 1.xx by Chris Breeze, | |
625 | to help printing with multiple pages. | |
626 | - IPC classes given base classes (wxConnectionBase etc.) which | |
627 | define the API used by different implementations. DDE | |
628 | implementation updated to use these base classes. | |
629 | - wxHelpInstance now separated into wxHelpControllerBase (base | |
630 | for all implementations), wxWinHelpController (uses standard | |
631 | WinHelp), wxXLPHelPController (talks to wxHelp by DDE or | |
632 | TCP/IP). There will be others eventually, such as | |
633 | wxHTMLHelpController for Microsoft (and Netscape?) HTML Help. | |
634 | - Added Vadim Zeitlin's wxString class plus | |
635 | internationalization code (gettext simulation, wxLocale, etc.). | |
636 | New files from Vadim: | |
637 | include\wx\string.h | |
638 | include\wx\debug.h | |
639 | include\wx\file.h | |
640 | include\wx\log.h | |
641 | include\wx\intl.h | |
642 | src\common\string.cpp | |
643 | src\common\log.cpp | |
644 | src\common\intl.cpp | |
645 | src\common\file.cpp | |
646 | No longer use GNU wxString files. | |
647 | - Split off file-related functions into include\wx\filefn.h and | |
648 | src\common\filefn.cpp. | |
649 | - Borland C++ support (WIN32) for main library and | |
650 | samples, using makefile.b32 files. | |
651 | - Preparation done for allowing BC++ to compile wxWin as a DLL, | |
652 | including changes to defs.h. | |
653 | - wxIntPoint removed, wxPoint is now int, and wxRealPoint | |
654 | introduced. | |
655 | - Added wxShowEvent (generated when window is being shown or | |
656 | hidden). | |
657 | - Got minimal, docview, mdi samples working for 16-bit VC++ and | |
658 | cured 16-bit problem with wxTextCtrl (removed global memory | |
659 | trick). | |
660 | - Updated GnuWin32 makefiles, checked minimal, mdi, docview samples. | |

668 | - Instigated new file hierarchy, split files and classes up more logically. | |
669 | - PrologIO and some other utils now put into core library. | |
670 | - Revamped print/preview classes, added wxPageSetupDialog. | |

678 | - EVT_... macros now have at least one argument, for conformance |
679 | with MetroWerks compiler. | |
680 | - Added ids to .wxr file format. | |
681 | - Got Dialog Editor compiled and running again but need | |
682 | to extend functionality to be in line with new controls. | |
683 | Added dialoged\test app to allow dynamic loading of .wxr files | |
684 | for testing purposes. | |
685 | - Rewrote wxBitmap to allow installable file type | |
686 | handlers. | |
687 | - Rewrote wxBitmapButton, wxStaticBitmap to not use Fafa. | |
688 | - Wrote most of wxTreeCtrl and sample (need wxImageList to implement it | |
689 | fully). | |
690 | - Added back wxRadioBox. | |
691 | - Tidied up wx_main.cpp, wxApp class, putting PenWin code in | |
692 | a separate file. | |

699 | At this point, the following has been achieved: |
700 | ||
701 | - A lot, but not all, of the code has been revamped for better | |
702 | naming conventions, protection of data members, and use of | |
703 | wxString instead of char *. | |
704 | - Obsolete functionality deleted (e.g. default wxPanel layout, | |
705 | old system event system) and code size reduced. | |
706 | - Class hierarchy changed (see design doc) - base classes such | |
707 | as wxbWindow now removed. | |
708 | - No longer includes windows.h in wxWin headers, by using stand-in | |
709 | Windows types where needed e.g. WXHWND. | |
710 | - PrologIO revised. | |
711 | - wxScrolledWindow, wxStatusBar and new MDI classes added. | |
712 | MDI is now achived using separate classes, not window styles. | |
713 | - wxSystemSettings added, and made use of to reflect standard | |
714 | Windows settings. | |
715 | - SetButtonFont/SetLabelFont replaced by SetFont; font and colour | |
716 | settings mucho rationalised. | |
717 | - All windows are now subclassed with the same window proc to make | |
718 | event handling far more consistent. Old internal wxWnd and derived | |
719 | classes removed. | |
720 | - API for controls revised, in particular addition of | |
721 | wxValidator parameters and removal of labels for some controls. | |
722 | - 1 validator written: see examples/validate. | |
723 | - Event table system introduced (see most samples and | |
724 | wx_event.cpp/ProcessEvent, wx_event.h). wxEvtHandler | |
725 | made more flexible, with Push/PopEventHandler allowing a chain | |
726 | of event handlers. | |
727 | - wxRadioBox removed - will be added back soon. | |
728 | - Toolbar class hierarchy revised: | |
729 | wxToolBarBase | |
730 | wxToolBarSimple (= old wxToolBar) | |
731 | wxToolBar95 (= old wxButtonBar under Win95 | |
732 | wxToolBarMSW (= old wxButtonBar under WIN16/WIN32) | |
733 | - Constraint system debugged somewhat (sizers now work properly). | |
734 | - wxFileDialog, wxDirDialog added; other common dialogs now | |
735 | have class equivalents. Generic colour and font dialogs | |
736 | rewritten to not need obsolete panel layout. | |
737 | - .wxr resource system partially reinstated, though needs | |
738 | an integer ID for controls. Hopefully the resource system | |
739 | will be replaced by something better and more efficient | |
740 | in the future. | |
741 | - Device contexts no longer stored with window and accessed | |
742 | with GetDC - use wxClientDC, wxPaintDC, wxWindowDC stack | |
743 | variables instead. | |
744 | - wxSlider uses trackbar class under Win95, and wxSL_LABELS flag | |
745 | determines whether labels are shown. Other Win95-specific flags | |
746 | introduced, e.g. for showing ticks. | |
747 | - Styles introduced for dealing with 3D effects per window, for | |
748 | any window: all Win95 3D effects supported, plus transparent windows. | |
749 | - Major change to allow 3D effect support without CTL3D, under | |
750 | Win95. | |
751 | - Bitmap versions of button and checkbox separated out into new | |
752 | classes, but unimplemented as yet because I intend to remove | |
753 | the need for Fafa - it apparently causes GPFs in Win95 OSR 2. | |
754 | - utils/wxprop classes working (except maybe wxPropertyFormView) | |
755 | in preparation for use in Dialog Editor. | |
756 | - GNU-WIN32 compilation verified (a month or so ago). | |
