7wx.ADJUST_MINSIZE is now the default behaviour for window items in
8sizers. This means that the item's GetAdjustedBestSize will be called
9when calculating layout and the return value from that will be used
761b244f 10for the minimum size. Added wx.FIXED_MINSIZE flag for when you would
95fed4d8 11like the old behavior but you should only need it when your desired

12size is smaller than the item's GetBestSize. When a window is added
13to a sizer it's initial size, if any, is set as the window's minimal
14size using SetSizeHints if there isn't already a minimal size.

16Added some convenience methods to wx.Bitmap: SetSize, GetSize, and
17wx.EmptyBitmap can be called with a wx.Size (or a 2-element sequence)
18object too. Similar changes were done for wx.Image as well.

20Added new MaskedEditControl code from Will Sadkin. The modules are
21now locaed in their own sub-package, wx.lib.masked. Demos updated.

36The wxWindows project and library is now known as wxWidgets. Please
37see http://www.wxwindows.org/name.htm for more details. This won't
38really affect wxPython all that much, other than the fact that the
39wxwindows.org domain name will be changing to wxwidgets.org, so mail
40list, CVS, and etc. addresses will be changing. We're going to try
41and smooth the transition as much as possible, but I wanted you all to
42be aware of this change if you run into any issues.

3ef86e32 45Many, many little fixes, changes and additions done as part of the move
b25cb7db 46to wxWidgets 2.5 that I have forgotten about.

61I made a small but important change in the code that aquires the
62Python Global Interpreter Lock to try and prevent deadlocks that can
63happen when there are nested attempts to aquire the GIL.

65The RPMs will now install menu items on Mandrake Linux in
66Applications/Development/Tools for PyCrust, XRCed, etc. The RPMs are
67also installing icons and ``*.desktop`` items in the generic KDE and
68GNOME locations, but I don't know yet if they are resulting in menu
69items on non-Mandrake systems. (It didn't automatically do it on my
70RH-9 build box but I didn't chase it very far...) If you have ideas
71for how to improve the .spec file to work better and/or on more
72distros please send me a patch.

74The RPMs are now built on a fairly generic RH-9 box, and I have tested
75installing them also on my main Mandrake 9.2 box.

77There are some big changes in the OS X disk image. The actual
78Installer package now *only* installs the wxMac dynlibs, wxPython
b25cb7db 79extension modules and Python pacakges, and also the command-line tool
e6a5dac6
RD
80scripts. The remaining items (demo, samples, and application bundles
81for the Demo, PyCrust and XRCed) are now top-level items in the disk
82image (.dmg file) that users can just drag and drop to wherever they
83want to put them.

85The wxWave class has been renamed to wxSound, and now has a slightly
86different API.
