5ec9d741 | 5 | INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES SINCE 2.8.x |
aae53500 VZ |
6 | ================================ |
7 | ||
500b128d VZ |
8 | |
9 | Notice that these changes are described in more details in | |
10 | the "Changes Since wxWidgets 2.8" section of the manual, | |
11 | please read it if the explanation here is too cryptic. | |
12 | ||
13 | ||
e6d4038a VZ |
14 | Unicode-related changes |
15 | ----------------------- | |
16 | ||
17 | The biggest changes in wxWidgets 3.0 are the changes due to the merge of the | |
18 | old ANSI and Unicode build modes in a single build. See the Unicode overview | |
19 | in the manual for more details but here are the most important incompatible | |
20 | changes: | |
21 | ||
22 | - Many wxWidgets functions taking "const wxChar *" have been changed to take | |
3dac8f8a VS |
23 | either "const wxString&" (so that they accept both Unicode and ANSI strings; |
24 | the argument can't be NULL anymore in this case) or "const char *" (if the | |
e0e7a341 VS |
25 | strings are always ANSI; may still be NULL). This change is normally |
26 | backwards compatible except: | |
4baf7800 VZ |
27 | |
28 | a) Virtual functions: derived classes versions must be modified to take | |
29 | "const wxString&" as well to make sure that they continue to override the | |
30 | base class version. | |
31 | ||
32 | b) Passing NULL as argument: as NULL can't be unambiguously converted to | |
33 | wxString, in many cases code using it won't compile any more and NULL | |
0d5ab92f VZ |
34 | should be replaced with an empty string. |
35 | ||
b7aadf25 VZ |
36 | - Functions returning "const wxChar *" were changed as well. Mostly they now |
37 | return wxString which is then transparently convertible to either "const char | |
38 | *" or "const wchar_t *" but in some cases, notably wxDateTime::ParseXXX(), | |
39 | the returned string could be NULL and so a separate helper class is used. If | |
40 | you obtain compilation errors because of this, you can always correct them by | |
41 | explicitly assigning the function return value to a variable of wanted type. | |
c398434d VZ |
42 | A slightly more intrusive but better solution is to use ParseXXX() version |
43 | with wxString::const_iterator output parameter which simply returns bool to | |
44 | indicate the parsing success. | |
0d5ab92f VZ |
45 | |
46 | - Some structure fields which used to be of type "const wxChar *" (such as | |
47 | wxCmdLineEntryDesc::shortName, longName and description fields) are now of | |
48 | type "const char *", you need to remove wxT() or _T() around the values used | |
9204fde6 VZ |
49 | to initialize them (which should normally always be ASCII). If you want your |
50 | code to remain compatible with Unicode build of previous wx version, please | |
51 | use the special wxT_2, which is the same as wxT in 2.x only, instead. | |
e6d4038a | 52 | |
50c549b9 VZ |
53 | - wxIPC classes didn't work correctly in Unicode build before, this was fixed |
54 | but at a price of breaking backwards compatibility: many methods which used | |
55 | to work with "wxChar *" before use "void *" now (some int parameters were | |
56 | also changed to size_t). While wxIPC_TEXT can still be used to transfer 7 | |
57 | bit text, the new wxIPC_UTF8TEXT format is used for transferring wxStrings. | |
f01a77c7 VZ |
58 | Also notice that connection classes should change the parameter types of |
59 | their overridden OnExecute() or override a more convenient OnExec() instead. | |
e6d4038a VZ |

62 | wxODBC and contrib libraries removal |
63 | ------------------------------------ | |
1e6b2edf VZ |
64 | |
65 | wxODBC library was unmaintained since several years and we couldn't continue | |
66 | supporting it any longer so it was removed. Please use any of the other open | |
67 | source ODBC libraries in the future projects. | |
68 | ||
6f67af05 FM |
69 | Also the "applet", "deprecated", "fl", "mmedia" and "plot" contrib libraries |
70 | were removed as they were unmaintained and broken since several years. | |
71 | The "gizmos", "ogl", "net" and "foldbar" contribs have been moved to | |
72 | wxCode (see http://wxcode.sourceforge.net/complist.php); they are now | |
3f0e574a | 73 | open for further development by volunteers. |
6f67af05 FM |
74 | |
75 | The "stc" and "svg" contribs instead have been moved respectively into a new | |
76 | "official" library stc and in the core lib. | |
77 | ||
1e6b2edf | 78 | |
b1f3b29c VZ |
79 | Changes in behaviour not resulting in compilation errors, please read this! |
80 | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | |
81 | ||
466e87bd VZ |
82 | - Default location of wxFileConfig files has changed under Windows, you will |
83 | need to update your code if you access these files directly. | |
84 | ||
47a8a4d5 VZ |
85 | - wxWindow::IsEnabled() now returns false if a window parent (and not |
86 | necessarily the window itself) is disabled, new function IsThisEnabled() | |
87 | with the same behaviour as old IsEnabled() was added. | |
88 | ||
5644933f VZ |
89 | - Generating wxNavigationKeyEvent events doesn't work any more under wxGTK (and |
90 | other platforms in the future), use wxWindow::Navigate() or NavigateIn() | |
91 | instead. | |
92 | ||
89064717 VZ |
93 | - Sizers distribute only the extra space between the stretchable items |
94 | according to their proportions and not all available space. We believe the | |
95 | new behaviour corresponds better to user expectations but if you did rely | |
96 | on the old behaviour you will have to update your code to set the minimal | |
97 | sizes of the sizer items to be in the same proportion as the items | |
98 | proportions to return to the old behaviour. | |
99 | ||
5414d62e VZ |
100 | - Interpretation of font height in pixels parameter has changed in wxFont |
101 | ctor and SetPixelSize() in wxMSW: it is now used as character height and not | |
102 | the total cell height. If you previously used negative height to explicitly | |
103 | request character height matching, you may now change your code to use | |
104 | positive value (passing negative height still works but is undocumented and | |
105 | deprecated). If you used positive height before you should retest your code | |
106 | to check if the changes correspond to your expectations. And if you do need | |
107 | the old behaviour please contact us at wx-dev to let us know about it! | |
108 | ||
17808a75 | 109 | - wxWindow::Freeze/Thaw() are not virtual any more, if you overrode them in |
47d9ca16 | 110 | your code you need to override DoFreeze/DoThaw() instead now. |
17808a75 | 111 | |
628e155d VZ |
112 | - wxCalendarCtrl has native implementation in wxGTK, but it has less features |
113 | than the generic one. The native implementation is used by default, but you | |
114 | can still use wxGenericCalendarCtrl instead of wxCalendarCtrl in your code if | |
115 | you need the extra features. | |
116 | ||
9c8116f8 VZ |
117 | - wxDocument::FileHistoryLoad() and wxFileHistory::Load() now take const |
118 | reference to wxConfigBase argument and not just a reference, please update | |
119 | your code if you overrode these functions and change the functions in the | |
120 | derived classes to use const reference as well. | |
121 | ||
a6eac99d VZ |
122 | - Under MSW wxExecute() arguments are now always properly quoted, as under |
123 | Unix, and so shouldn't contain quotes unless they are part of the argument. | |
17808a75 | 124 | |
c6e4d276 VZ |
125 | - wxDocument::OnNewDocument() doesn't call OnCloseDocument() any more. |
126 | ||
1d7b600d VZ |
127 | - If you use wxScrolledWindow::SetTargetWindow() you must implement its |
128 | GetSizeAvailableForScrollTarget() method, please see its documentation for | |
129 | more details. | |
130 | ||
0e1e143d FM |
131 | - Processing of pending events now requires a running event loop. |
132 | Thus initialization code (e.g. showing a dialog) previously done in wxApp::OnRun() | |
133 | or equivalent function should now be done into wxApp::OnEventLoopEnter(). | |
134 | See wxApp::OnEventLoopEnter() and wxApp::OnEventLoopExit() docs for more info. | |
135 | ||
f2a18fbe VZ |
136 | - wxLoadFileSelector() now allows the user to select existing files only. |
137 | ||
9c61c5b0 VZ |
138 | - Erase background events are now not generated at all when background style is |
139 | changed. See the updated wxWindow::SetBackgroundStyle() description in the | |
140 | manual for more details. | |
141 | ||
febebac1 | 142 | - wxTreeCtrl::GetSelection now asserts if the tree has the wxTR_MULTIPLE style. |
bc73d5ae | 143 | Instead use GetSelections() for multiple items; or if you want only the |
febebac1 VZ |
144 | single item last touched, the new wxTreeCtrl::GetFocusedItem. |
145 | ||
bc73d5ae VZ |
146 | - Custom log targets should be updated to override wxLog::DoLogRecord() method |
147 | instead of DoLog() or DoLogString() and must be updated if they call the base | |
148 | class versions of these functions as this won't work any more; please see the | |
149 | documentation of wxLog for more information. | |
150 | ||
7e6edd27 VZ |
151 | - Confusing wxGridSizer(int cols, int vgap = 0, int hgap = 0) ctor which was |
152 | easy to mistake for wxGridSizer(int rows, int cols) overload was removed, you | |
153 | will need to specify both vertical and horizontal gap if you want to use this | |
154 | overload or specify both rows and columns and the gap otherwise. Use of the | |
4a00e77c VZ |
155 | new constructors taking wxSize for the gap argument is preferred. The same |
156 | applies to wxFlexGridSizer as well. | |
7e6edd27 | 157 | |
1a2df6a7 VZ |
158 | - wxBoxSizer::AddSpacer(x) now adds space in the direction of the sizer only |
159 | and not in both this and the orthogonal directions. This behaviour is what | |
160 | most of the people expect but if you really relied on this overload adding | |
161 | space in both directions you should change your code to use AddSpacer(x, x). | |
57cc93eb | 162 | |
b37e592b | 163 | - wxTextCtrl::LoadFile no longer sends a text update event. |
1a2df6a7 | 164 | |
57cc93eb VS |
165 | - wxXmlDocument::Save()'s indentstep argument's interpretation was fixed |
166 | to match the documentation: it now really is the number of spaces in | |
167 | indentation instead of being its double. Its default value was changed | |
168 | accordingly, to 2. | |
169 | ||
3acf8a8d VS |
170 | - wxLOCALE_CONV_ENCODING flag has no effect now, catalogs are converted |
171 | regardless of whether the flag was specified or not. This only affects | |
172 | legacy ANSI builds. | |
173 | ||
426ebc99 VZ |
174 | - wxNotebook::GetSelection() returns the new page index when called from |
175 | wxEVT_COMMAND_NOTEBOOK_PAGE_CHANGED event handler in wxMSW, not the old one. | |
176 | The new behaviour is consistent with wxGTK and more logical but different | |
177 | from the previous versions. Using wxNotebookEvent::GetSelection() instead of | |
178 | querying the notebook selection avoids the problem and is recommended. | |
179 | ||
6eefca4f VZ |
180 | - wxMSW-specific wxAutomationObject::GetInstance() method now creates a new |
181 | instance if needed instead of failing if the application providing the | |
182 | requested ProgID is not running. Pass wxAutomationInstance_UseExistingOnly | |
1244d2e0 VZ |
183 | flag to it to revert to the old behaviour. It is also possible to use the |
184 | wxAutomationInstance_SilentIfNone flag to prevent the error message if no | |
185 | currently running instances of this object are available. | |
6eefca4f | 186 | |
548fa9c1 VS |
187 | - Signatures of wxDataViewCustomRenderer::Activate(), LeftClick() and |
188 | StartDrag() virtual methods changed. You will need to change them in your | |
189 | derived renderer class too if you override them. | |
190 | ||
b95a7c31 VZ |
191 | - wxThread::Wait() and wxThread::Delete() used to dispatch the events while |
192 | waiting for the thread to exit in wxMSW. They still do it in default build | |
193 | with WXWIN_COMPATIBILITY_2_8 defined but won't dispatch any events, i.e. the | |
194 | default wait mode will become wxTHREAD_WAIT_BLOCK in the next wxWidgets | |
195 | release so you are strongly encouraged to upgrade your code to stop relying | |
196 | on this behaviour. | |
197 | ||
5c16a699 VZ |
198 | - wxEVT_CHAR_HOOK events are not generated any more if the mouse is captured to |
199 | prevent the parent wxTopLevelWindow from interfering with the keyboard | |
200 | handling of the window that captured the mouse. | |
201 | ||
1d7b600d | 202 | |
b1f3b29c VZ |
203 | Changes in behaviour which may result in compilation errors |
204 | ----------------------------------------------------------- | |
205 | ||
c1dc9f83 VZ |
206 | - WXWIN_COMPATIBILITY_2_4 doesn't exist any more, please update your code if |
207 | you still relied on features deprecated since version 2.4 | |
208 | ||
ddc0ac4a VZ |
209 | - wxDC classes hierarchy has changed, if you derived any classes from wxDC you |
210 | need to review them as wxDC doesn't have any virtual methods any longer and | |
211 | uses delegation instead of inheritance to present different behaviours. | |
212 | ||
8cc208e3 | 213 | - wxWindow::ProcessEvent() (and other wxEvtHandler methods inherited by wxWindow) |
bca627de FM |
214 | has been made protected to prevent wrongly using it instead of correct |
215 | GetEventHandler()->ProcessEvent(). | |
216 | New ProcessWindowEvent() was added for convenience. | |
3b7fa206 | 217 | |
c9f78968 VS |
218 | - Return type of wxString::operator[] and wxString::iterator::operator* is no |
219 | longer wxChar (i.e. char or wchar_t), but wxUniChar. This is not a problem | |
220 | in vast majority of cases because of conversion operators, but it can break | |
221 | code that depends on the result being wxChar. | |
222 | ||
ef0f1387 VS |
223 | - The value returned by wxString::c_str() cannot be casted to non-const char* |
224 | or wchar_t* anymore. The solution is to use newly added wxString methods | |
225 | char_str() (which returns a buffer convertible to char*) or wchar_str() | |
226 | (which returns a buffer convertible to wchar_t*). These methods are | |
227 | available in wxWidgets 2.8 series beginning with 2.8.4 as well. | |
228 | ||
c9f78968 VS |
229 | - The value returned by wxString::operator[] or wxString::iterator cannot be |
230 | used in switch statements anymore, because it's a class instance. Code like | |
231 | this won't compile: | |
232 | switch (str[i]) { ... } | |
233 | and has to be replaced with this: | |
234 | switch (str[i].GetValue()) { ... } | |
235 | ||
73ba5ab9 VZ |
236 | - Return type of wxString::c_str() is now a helper wxCStrData struct and not |
237 | const wxChar*. wxCStrData is implicitly convertible to both "const char *" | |
238 | and "const wchar_t *", so this only presents a problem if the compiler cannot | |
239 | apply the conversion. This can happen in 2 cases: | |
a6eac99d | 240 | |
73ba5ab9 VZ |
241 | + There is an ambiguity because the function being called is overloaded to |
242 | take both "const char *" and "const wchar_t *" as the compiler can't choose | |
243 | between them. In this case you may use s.wx_str() to call the function | |
244 | matching the current build (Unicode or not) or s.mb_str() or s.wc_str() to | |
245 | explicitly select narrow or wide version of it. | |
246 | ||
247 | Notice that such functions are normally not very common but unfortunately | |
248 | Microsoft decided to extend their STL with standard-incompatible overloads | |
249 | of some functions accepting "const wchar_t *" so you may need to replace | |
250 | some occurrences of c_str() with wx_str() when using MSVC 8 or later. | |
251 | ||
252 | + Some compilers, notably Borland C++ and DigitalMars, don't correctly | |
253 | convert operator?: operands to the same type and fail with compilation | |
254 | error instead. This can be worked around by explicitly casting to const | |
255 | wxChar*: wxLogError(_("error: %s"), !err.empty() ? (const wxChar*)err.c_str() : "") | |
c9f78968 | 256 | |
52de37c7 | 257 | - wxCtime() and wxAsctime() return char*; this is incompatible with Unicode |
5bce3e6f | 258 | build in wxWidgets 2.8 that returned wchar_t*. |
52de37c7 | 259 | |
c9f78968 VS |
260 | - DigitalMars compiler has a bug that prevents it from using |
261 | wxUniChar::operator bool in conditions and it erroneously reports type | |
262 | conversion ambiguity in expressions such as this: | |
263 | for ( wxString::const_iterator p = s.begin(); *p; ++p ) | |
264 | This can be worked around by explicitly casting to bool: | |
265 | for ( wxString::const_iterator p = s.begin(); (bool)*p; ++p ) | |
266 | ||
d03dab2a | 267 | - Virtual wxHtmlParser::AddText() takes wxString, not wxChar*, argument now. |
5bce3e6f | 268 | |
4c51a665 | 269 | - Functions that took wxChar* arguments that could be NULL in wxWidgets 2.8 |
d38f70b2 | 270 | are deprecated and passing NULL to them won't compile anymore, wxEmptyString |
ab29bb87 | 271 | must be used instead. |
d38f70b2 | 272 | |
de34bb08 VZ |
273 | - wxTmemxxx() functions take either wxChar* or char*, not void*: use memxxx() |
274 | with void pointers. | |
275 | ||
d03dab2a VS |
276 | - Removed insecure wxGets() and wxTmpnam() functions. |
277 | ||
6a4cbac1 VS |
278 | - Removed global GetLine() function from wx/protocol/protocol.h, use |
279 | wxProtocol::ReadLine() instead. | |
17808a75 | 280 | |
c8058a09 JS |
281 | - wxVariant no longer derives from wxObject. wxVariantData also no longer |
282 | derives from wxObject; instead of using wxDynamicCast with wxVariantData you | |
283 | can use the macro wxDynamicCastVariantData with the same arguments. | |
6a4cbac1 | 284 | |
1a8a13ee | 285 | - wxWindow::Next/PrevControlId() don't exist any more as they couldn't be |
08f1c27c | 286 | implemented correctly any longer because automatically generated ids are not |
1a8a13ee | 287 | necessarily allocated consecutively now. Use GetChildren() to find the |
08f1c27c VZ |
288 | next/previous control sibling instead. |
289 | ||
500b128d VZ |
290 | - Calling wxConfig::Write() with an enum value will fail to compile because |
291 | wxConfig now tries to convert all unknown types to wxString automatically. | |
292 | The simplest solution is to cast the enum value to int. | |
d03dab2a | 293 | |
e98e625c VZ |
294 | - Several wxImage methods which previously had "long bitmaptype" parameters |
295 | have been changed to accept "wxBitmapType bitmaptype", please use enum | |
296 | wxBitmapType in your code. | |
297 | ||
763163a8 VZ |
298 | - wxGridCellEditor::EndEdit() signature has changed and it was split in two |
299 | functions, one still called EndEdit() and ApplyEdit(). See the documentation | |
300 | of the new functions for more details about how grid editors should be | |
301 | written now. | |
302 | ||
303 | - wxEVT_GRID_CELL_CHANGE event renamed to wxEVT_GRID_CELL_CHANGED and shouldn't | |
304 | be vetoed any more, use the new wxEVT_GRID_CELL_CHANGING event to do it. | |
305 | ||
6e2f3084 | 306 | - wxListCtrlCompare function used with wxListCtrl::SortItems() must now declare |
b18e2046 | 307 | its third parameter as wxIntPtr and not long (this allows passing pointers |
6e2f3084 VZ |
308 | to it under 64 bit platforms too). |
309 | ||
8cc208e3 VZ |
310 | - Global wxPendingEvents and wxPendingEventsLocker objects were removed. |
311 | You may use wxEventLoopBase::SuspendProcessingOfPendingEvents instead of | |
312 | locking wxPendingEventsLocker now. | |
313 | ||
2352862a VZ |
314 | - wxBitmapButton::GetBitmapXXX() overloads returning non-const wxBitmap |
315 | references have been removed, modifying the returned bitmaps never worked and | |
316 | now results in compile-time error. | |
317 | ||
34a083c9 VZ |
318 | - wxLogXXX() are now macros, not functions. Because of this calling them with |
319 | an explicit scope resolution operator ("::wxLogError()") doesn't work any | |
320 | longer, just remove it. Also notice that using them inside an "if" statement | |
321 | without enclosing parentheses results in warnings from g++ with -Wparentheses, | |
322 | add parentheses around the if statement body to work around it. | |
323 | ||
4c51a665 | 324 | - wxList::Member() now returns bool and not a pointer/iterator. This shouldn't |
0f08aa44 VZ |
325 | require any changes as it was always meant to be used for checking for the |
326 | presence of an element in the list only. If you used it as Find(), simple do | |
327 | use Find() instead. | |
328 | ||
65154866 VZ |
329 | - wxLongLongFmtSpec is now a normal and not wide string so you will need to |
330 | change expressions of the form wxT("%") wxLongLongFmtSpec wxT("x") to | |
331 | just "%" wxLongLongFmtSpec "x", i.e. simply remove wxT() from the strings you | |
332 | concatenate with it. | |
333 | ||
3da9cffc VZ |
334 | - wxST_MARKUP doesn't exist any more, use wxControl::SetLabelMarkup() instead. |
335 | ||
763163a8 | 336 | |
5ec9d741 VZ |
337 | Deprecated methods and their replacements |
338 | ----------------------------------------- | |
339 | ||
13dd765c | 340 | - wxCreateGreyedImage() deprecated, use wxImage::ConvertToGreyscale() instead. |
7890307b VS |
341 | - wxString::GetWriteBuf() and UngetWriteBuf() deprecated, using wxStringBuffer |
342 | or wxStringBufferLength instead. | |
d0bc78e2 VZ |
343 | - wxDIRCTRL_SHOW_FILTERS style is deprecated, filters are alwsys shown if |
344 | specified so this style should simply be removed | |
724b119a VZ |
345 | - wxDocManager::MakeDefaultName() replaced by MakeNewDocumentName() and |
346 | wxDocument::GetPrintableName() with GetUserReadableName() which are simpler | |
347 | to use | |
288b6107 VS |
348 | - wxXmlProperty class was renamed to wxXmlAttribute in order to use standard |
349 | terminology. Corresponding wxXmlNode methods were renamed to use | |
350 | "Attribute" instead of "Property" or "Prop" in their names. | |
022a8a5a VZ |
351 | - wxConnection::OnExecute() is not formally deprecated yet but new code should |
352 | use simpler OnExec() version which is called with wxString argument | |
8cc208e3 VZ |
353 | - Various wxMenuItem methods were deprecated in favour of more consisently |
354 | named new versions: | |

358 | . SetText() is now SetItemLabel() | |
359 | - wxBrush's, wxPen's SetStyle() and GetStyle() as well as the wxBrush/wxPen | |
360 | ctor now take respectively a wxBrushStyle and a wxPenStyle value instead of a | |
361 | plain "int style"; use the new wxBrush/wxPen style names (wxBRUSHSTYLE_XXX | |
362 | and wxPENSTYLE_XXX) instead of the old deprecated wxXXX styles. | |
e557577d VZ |
363 | - EVT_GRID_CELL_CHANGE was deprecated, use EVT_GRID_CELL_CHANGED instead if you |
364 | don't veto the event in its handler and EVT_GRID_CELL_CHANGING if you do. | |
628e155d VZ |
365 | - EVT_CALENDAR_DAY event has been deprecated, use EVT_CALENDAR_SEL_CHANGED. |

368 | - wxCalendarCtrl::EnableYearChange() and wxCAL_NO_YEAR_CHANGE are deprecated. | |
fdaad94e VZ |
369 | There is no replacement for this functionality, it is being dropped as it is |
370 | not available in native wxCalendarCtrl implementations. | |
371 | - wxDC::SetClippingRegion(const wxRegion&) overload is deprecated as it used | |
372 | different convention from the other SetClippingRegion() overloads: wxRegion | |
373 | passed to it was interpreted in physical, not logical, coordinates. Replace | |
374 | it with SetDeviceClippingRegion() if this was the correct thing to do in your | |
375 | code. | |
053ac76f | 376 | - wxTE_AUTO_SCROLL style is deprecated as it's always on by default anyhow. |
8cc208e3 VZ |
377 | - wxThreadHelper::Create() has been renamed to CreateThread which has a better |
378 | name for a mix-in class, and allows setting the thread type. | |

380 | wxExpandPath, wxContractPath, wxRealPath, wxCopyAbsolutePath, wxSplitPath | |
381 | were deprecated in favour of wxFileName methods. See docs for more info. | |
8cc208e3 VZ |
382 | - wxEvtHandler::TryValidator/Parent() are deprecated, override the new and |
383 | documented TryBefore/After() methods if you used to override these ones. | |
e5cfb314 VZ |
384 | - wxGetMultipleChoices() is deprecated, use wxGetSelectedChoices() which has |
385 | the same signature but returns -1 and not 0 if the dialog was cancelled. | |
39cdc95f FM |
386 | - building the windows which are placed inside wxStaticBoxes as siblings of the |
387 | wxStaticBox is still allowed but it's deprecated as it gives some problems | |
388 | on some ports (e.g. wxGTK). | |
389 | You should now create windows placed inside a wxStaticBox as children of | |
390 | the static box itself. | |
c1ea6afb VZ |
391 | - wxMouseState::{Left,Middle,Right}Down() were renamed to XXXIsDown() for |
392 | consistency with wxMouseEvent and the old names were deprecated. | |
8462a84b VZ |
393 | - wxFont::SetNoAntiAliasing() was deprecated, it never really worked in most |
394 | ports and was always marked as "experimental" API. It will be replaced with | |
395 | wxDC-level anti-aliasing control in the future. | |
c27181d1 VZ |
396 | - wxValidator::SetBellOnError() incorrectly interpreted its argument (it |
397 | disabled the bell when it was true) and was replaced by SuppressBellOnError() | |
398 | with more expected semantics. | |
af7e24c3 VZ |
399 | - wxPORTRAIT and wxLANDSCAPE are now elements of wxPrintOrientation enum and |
400 | wxPrintData::SetOrientation(int) takes wxPrintOrientation and not int. | |
0a12e013 VZ |
401 | - Second parameter of wxSlider::SetTickFreq(int n, int pos) is deprecated, |
402 | simply remove it from your code and use wxSlider::SetTickFreq(int n) as it | |
403 | was never used anyhow. | |

407 | ||
9135f74e VZ |

2318 | due to a rounding error. | |

c28cb884 RR |
2366 | - Changed calls to GTK+ 2.4.x functions so that the code checks at |
2367 | runtime, which library version is installed so that these functions | |
2368 | are only called with GTK+ 2.4.x installed and should yield linker | |
2369 | errors otherwise. | |

1845da40 MB |
2943 | |

08e5319b MB |
2948 | - for Motif 2.0, used the native combobox widget instead of the GPL'd |

2971 | =========== | |
e3a43801 | 2972 | |
bbed9595 VZ |
2973 | INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES SINCE 2.2.x |
2974 | ================================ | |
2975 | ||
0b74b736 VZ |
2976 | Please take a few minutes to read the following list, especially |
2977 | paying attention to the most important changes which are marked | |
2978 | with '!' in the first column. | |
2979 | ||
b6421719 VZ |
2980 | Also please note that you should ensure that WXWIN_COMPATIBILITY_2_2 |
2981 | is defined to 1 if you wish to retain maximal compatibility with 2.2 | |
2982 | series -- however you are also strongly encouraged to try to compile | |
2983 | your code without this define as it won't be default any longer in | |
2984 | 2.6 release. | |
2985 | ||
f33f16ec | 2986 | NB: if you want to build your program with different major versions |
fc2171bd | 2987 | of wxWidgets you will probably find the wxCHECK_VERSION() macro |
f33f16ec VZ |
2988 | (see the documentation) useful. |
2989 | ||
b6421719 | 2990 | |
461f203c VZ |
2991 | wxBase: |
2992 | ||
0b74b736 | 2993 | ! wxArray<T>::Remove(size_t) has been removed to fix compilation problems |
461f203c VZ |
2994 | under 64 bit architectures, please replace it with RemoveAt() in your |
2995 | code. | |
2996 | ||
0b74b736 | 2997 | ! wxArray<T> macros have been changed to fix runtime problems under 64 bit |
0eeeb25f VZ |
2998 | architectures and as a side effect of this WX_DEFINE_ARRAY() can only be |
2999 | used now for the pointer types, WX_DEFINE_ARRAY_INT should be used for the | |
3000 | arrays containing non-pointers. | |
3001 | ||
19924e90 VZ |
3002 | - wxObject::CopyObject() and Clone() methods were removed because they |
3003 | simply don't make sense for all objects | |
3004 | ||
3005 | - wxEvent now has a pure virtual Clone() method which must be implemented | |
3006 | by all derived classes, if you have user-defined event classes please | |
3007 | add "wxEvent *Clone() const { return new MyEvent(*this); }" line to them | |
3008 | ||
677eff07 VZ |
3009 | - small change to wxStopWatch::Pause() semantics, please see the documentation |
3010 | ||
a2d541ca VZ |
3011 | - unlikely but possible incompatibility: the definition of TRUE has changed |
3012 | from "1" to "(bool)1" (and the same thing for FALSE), so the code which | |
3013 | could be erroneously compiled previously such as doing "return FALSE" from | |
3014 | a function returning a pointer would stop compiling now (but this change | |
3015 | is not supposed to have any effects on valid code) | |
6a9c3625 | 3016 | |
aad65f13 VZ |
3017 | - another minor change: wxApp::OnAssert() has a new "cond" argument, you |
3018 | must modify YourApp::OnAssert() signature if you were using it to override | |
3019 | the default assert handling. | |
3020 | ||
d73e6791 VZ |
3021 | All (GUI): |
3022 | ||
0b74b736 | 3023 | ! the event type constants are not constants any more but are dynamically |
eead3ccb VZ |
3024 | allocated during run-time which means that they can't be used as case labels |
3025 | in the switch()es, you must rewrite them to use if()s instead | |
3026 | ||
3027 | You may also define WXWIN_COMPATIBILITY_EVENT_TYPES to get the old behaviour | |
2edb0bde | 3028 | but this is strongly discouraged, please consider changing your code |
eead3ccb VZ |
3029 | instead! |
3030 | ||
0b74b736 | 3031 | ! wxDialog does not derive from wxPanel any longer - if you were using it in |
01a63363 | 3032 | your code, please update it. The quick fix for the most cases is to replace |
2edb0bde | 3033 | the occurrences of wxPanel with wxWindow. |
01a63363 | 3034 | |
0b74b736 VZ |
3035 | ! if you handle (and don't skip) EVT_KEY_DOWN, the EVT_CHAR event is not |
3036 | generated at all, so you must call event.Skip() in your OnKeyDown() if | |
3037 | you want to get OnChar() as well | |
3038 | ||
cdb10551 VZ |
3039 | - in general, the key events sent for the various non ASCII key combinations |
3040 | have been changed to make them consistent over all supported platforms, | |
3041 | please see the wxKeyEvent documentation for details | |
3042 | ||
a8141d3f VZ |
3043 | - wxYES_NO is now wxYES | wxNO and the manifest values of both wxYES and wxNO |
3044 | have changed (to fix some unfortunate clashes), please check your code to | |
3045 | ensure that no tests for wxYES or wxNO are broken: for example, the following | |
3046 | will *NOT* work any longer: | |
3047 | ||
3048 | if ( flags & wxYES_NO ) | |
3049 | ... do something ... | |
3050 | if ( flags & wxYES ) | |
3051 | ... do something else ... | |
3052 | ||
750cefbc VZ |
3053 | - static wxWizard::Create() doesn't exist any more, the wizards are created |
3054 | in the same way as all the other wxWindow objects, i.e. by directly using | |
3055 | the ctor | |
3056 | ||
a8141d3f VZ |
3057 | - wxGLCanvas now derives directly from wxWindow, not wxScrolledWindow |
3058 | ||
3059 | - wxGridCellAttrProvider class API changed, you will need to update your code | |
3060 | if you derived any classes from it | |
3061 | ||
a69be60b | 3062 | - wxImage::ComputeHistogram()'s signature changed to |
d7af2fea VS |
3063 | unsigned long ComputeHistogram(wxImageHistogram&) const |
3064 | ||
cf72f75f VZ |
3065 | - wxEvtHandler cannot be copied/assigned any longer - this never worked but |
3066 | now it results in compile-time error instead of run-time crashes | |
3067 | ||
1a65fc65 VZ |
3068 | - WXK_NUMLOCK and WXK_SCROLL keys no longer result in EVT_CHAR() events, |
3069 | they only generate EVT_KEY_DOWN/UP() ones | |
3070 | ||
6a9c3625 VZ |
3071 | - the dialogs use wxApp::GetTopWindow() as the parent implicitly if the |
3072 | parent specified is NULL, use wxDIALOG_NO_PARENT style to prevent this | |
3073 | from happening | |
3074 | ||
b6421719 VZ |
3075 | - several obsolete synonyms are only retained in WXWIN_COMPATIBILITY_2_2 mode: |
3076 | for example, use wxScrolledWindow::GetViewStart() now instead of ViewStart() | |
3077 | and GetCount() instead of Number() in many classes | |
3078 | ||
ef357cda MB |
3079 | - wxCmdLineParser does not use wxLog to output messages anymore. |
3080 | to obtain the previous behaviour, add | |
3081 | wxMessageOutput::Set(new wxMessageOutputLog); to your program | |
3082 | (you will need to #include <wx/msgout.h>) | |
6a9c3625 | 3083 | |
461f203c VZ |
3084 | wxMSW: |
3085 | ||
0b74b736 | 3086 | ! build system changed: setup.h is not a static file in include/wx any more |
a12df582 | 3087 | but is created as part of the build process under lib/<toolkit>/wx |
461f203c | 3088 | where <toolkit> is of the form (msw|univ)[dll][u][d]. You'll need to update |
b239ffb9 VS |
3089 | the include path in your make/project files appropriately. Furthermore, |
3090 | xpm.lib is no longer used by wxMSW, it was superseded by the wxXPMDecoder | |
a69be60b VZ |
3091 | class. You'll need to remove all references to xpm.lib from your |
3092 | make/project files. Finally, the library names have changed as well and now | |
a12df582 | 3093 | use the following consistent naming convention: wxmsw[ver][u][d].(lib|dll) |
a69be60b VZ |
3094 | where 'u' appears for Unicode version, 'd' -- for the debug one and version |
3095 | is only present for the DLLs builds. | |
461f203c | 3096 | |
bbed9595 | 3097 | - child frames appear in the taskbar by default now, use wxFRAME_NO_TASKBAR |
9dfef5ac | 3098 | style to avoid it |
bbed9595 | 3099 | |
5230934a VZ |
3100 | - all overloads of wxDC::SetClippingRegion() combine the given region with the |
3101 | previously selected one instead of replacing it | |
3102 | ||
05a6a882 VZ |
3103 | - wxGetHomeDir() uses HOME environment variable and if it is set will not |
3104 | return the programs directory any longer but its value (this function has | |
3105 | never been meant to return the programs directory anyhow) | |
0b74b736 | 3106 | |
763f5546 VS |
3107 | - wxHTML apps don't need to include wx/html/msw/wxhtml.rc in resources file |
3108 | anymore. The file was removed from wxMSW | |
05a6a882 | 3109 | |
6a9c3625 | 3110 | |
f6656ccb VZ |
3111 | Unix ports: |
3112 | ||
0b74b736 | 3113 | ! You should use `wx-config --cxxflags` in your makefiles instead of |
f6656ccb VZ |
3114 | `wx-config --cflags` for compiling C++ files. CXXFLAGS contains CFLAGS |
3115 | and the compiler flags for C++ files only, CFLAGS should still be used | |
3116 | to compile pure C files. | |
3117 | ||
188b6ff7 | 3118 | |
0b74b736 VZ |
3119 | wxThread and related classes: |
3120 | ||
3121 | - The thread-related classes have been heavily changed since 2.2.x versions | |
3122 | as the old code had many serious problems. This could have resulted in | |
3123 | semantical changes other than those mentioned here, please review use of | |
3124 | wxThread, wxMutex and wxCondition classes in your code. | |
3125 | ||
3126 | ! wxCondition now *must* be used with a mutex, please read the (updated) class | |
3127 | documentation for details and revise your code accordingly: this change was | |
3128 | unfortunately needed as it was impossible to ensure the correct behaviour | |
dbd94b75 | 3129 | (i.e. absence of race conditions) using the old API. |
0b74b736 VZ |
3130 | |
3131 | - wxMutex is not recursive any more in POSIX implementation (it hasn't been | |
3132 | recursive in 2.2.x but was in 2.3.1 and 2.3.2), please refer to the class | |
3133 | documentation for the discussion of the recursive mutexes. | |
3134 | ||
3135 | - wxMutex::IsLocked() doesn't exist any more and should have never existed: | |
3136 | this is was unique example of a thread-unsafe-by-design method. | |
3137 | ||
3138 | ||
188b6ff7 VZ |

3831 | crashes for some reason). | |
3832 | - Fixed wxMotif version of wxImage::ConvertToBitmap (used new instead | |
3833 | of malloc, which causes memory problems). | |

3878 | ||
3879 | wxMSW: | |
3880 | ||
3881 | - 16-bit BC++ compilation/linking works albeit without the resource system. | |
3882 | ||

3895 | the dragged sash, not just the sash window itself (it clipped to the right | |
3896 | or below). | |
3897 | - Made resource sample use the correct Cancel button id. | |

e3a43801 JS |
3912 | Alpha 18, December 29th 1998 |
3913 | ---------------------------- | |
3914 | ||
3915 | wxMSW: | |
3916 | ||
3917 | - Win16 support working again (VC++ 1.5) | |
3918 | - Win16 now uses generic wxNotebook, wxListCtrl, | |
3919 | wxTreeCtrl -- more or less working now, although | |
3920 | a little work on wxNotebook is still needed. | |
3921 | Under 16-bit Windows, get assertion when you click | |
3922 | on a tab. | |
3923 | - Wrote 16-bit BC++ makefiles: samples don't yet link. | |
3924 | - Added CodeWarrior support to distribution courtesy | |
3925 | of Stefan Csomor. | |
3926 | ||
3927 | wxMotif: | |
3928 | ||
3929 | - Cured scrolling problem: scrollbars now show/hide themselves | |
3930 | without (permanently) resizing the window. | |
3931 | - Removed some commented-out lines in wxScrolledWindow::AdjustScrollbars | |
3932 | that disabled scrollbar paging. | |
3933 | - Set background colour of drawing area in wxWindow, so e.g. wxListCtrl | |
3934 | colours correctly. | |
3935 | - Removed major bug whereby dialogs were unmanaged automatically | |
3936 | when any button was pressed. | |
3937 | - Fixed colours of wxWindow scrollbars, made list and text controls | |
3938 | have a white background. | |
3939 | - Fixed dialog colour setting. | |
3940 | - Added settable fonts and colours for wxMenu/wxMenuBar. Now | |
3941 | they have sensible colours by default. | |
3942 | - Fixed a bug in wxStaticBox. | |
3943 | - Cured wxTreeCtrl bug: now works pretty well! | |
3944 | - Debugged DrawEllipticArc (a ! in the wrong place). | |
3945 | - Added SetClippingRegion( const wxRegion& region ). | |
3946 | - Added wxPoint, wxSize, wxRect versions of SetSize etc. | |
3947 | ||
3948 | Alpha 17, November 22nd 1998 | |
3949 | ---------------------------- | |
3950 | ||
3951 | wxMSW: | |
3952 | ||
3953 | - More documentation updates, especially for | |
3954 | wxLayoutWindow classes and debugging facilities. | |
3955 | - Changed wxDebugContext to use wxDebugLog instead | |
3956 | of wxTrace. | |
3957 | - Now supports VC++ 6.0, and hopefully BC++ 5.0. | |
3958 | However, DLL support may be broken for BC++ since | |
3959 | VC++ 6 required changing of WXDLLEXPORT keyword | |
3960 | position. | |
3961 | - Numerous miscellaneous changes. | |
3962 | ||
3963 | wxMotif: | |
3964 | ||
3965 | - Reimplemented MDI using wxNotebook instead of the MDI widgets, which | |
3966 | were too buggy (probably not design for dynamic addition/removal of | |
3967 | child frames). | |
3968 | - Some improvements to the wxNotebook implementation. | |
3969 | - wxToolBar now uses a bulletin board instead of a form, in an attempt | |
3970 | to make it possible to add ordinary wxControls to a toolbar. | |
3971 | - Cured problem with not being able to use global memory operators, | |
3972 | by defining two more global operators, so that the delete will match | |
3973 | the debugging implementation. | |
3974 | - Added wxUSE_DEBUG_NEW_ALWAYS so we can distinguish between using | |
3975 | global memory operators (usually OK) and #defining new to be | |
3976 | WXDEBUG_NEW (sometimes it might not be OK). | |
3977 | - Added time.cpp to makefile; set wxUSE_DATETIME to 1. | |
2edb0bde | 3978 | - Added a parent-existence check to popup menu code to make it not crash. |
e3a43801 JS |
3979 | - Added some optimization in wxWindow::SetSize to produce less flicker. |
3980 | It remains to be seen whether this produces any resize bugs. | |
3981 | ||
3982 | It's a long time since I updated this file. Previously done: | |
3983 | ||
3984 | - wxFrame, wxDialog done. | |
3985 | - wxScrolledWindow done (but backing pixmap not used at present). | |
3986 | - wxBitmap done though could be tidied it up at some point. | |
3987 | - Most basic controls are there, if not rigorously tested. | |
3988 | - Some MDI support (menus appear on child frames at present). | |
3989 | - wxNotebook almost done. | |
3990 | - wxToolBar done (horizontal only, which would be easy to extend | |
3991 | to vertical toolbars). | |
3992 | ||
3993 | More recently: | |
3994 | ||
3995 | - Colour and font changing done (question mark over what happens | |
3996 | to scrollbars). | |
3997 | - Accelerators done (for menu items and buttons). Also event loop | |
3998 | tidied up in wxApp so that events are filtered through ProcessXEvent. | |
3999 | - wxWindow::GetUpdateRegion should now work. | |
4000 | ||

4030 | converted to DC depth if they don't match. | |
4031 | - wxConfig API improved, documentation updated. | |
4032 | - Printing classes name conventions cleaned up. | |
4033 | - wxUpdateUIEvent now derives from wxCommandEvent | |
2edb0bde | 4034 | so event can travel up the window hierarchy. |

4035 | |
4036 | Alpha 14, July 31st 1998 | |
4037 | ------------------------ | |
4038 | ||
4039 | wxMSW: | |
4040 | ||
4041 | - Toolbar API has been simplified, and now | |
4042 | wxFrame::GetClientArea returns the available client | |
4043 | area when toolbar, status bar etc. have been accounted for. | |
4044 | wxFrame::CreateToolBar added in line with CreateStatusBar. | |
4045 | - Documentation updates, incl. for wxToolBar. | |

4052 | ----------------------- | |
4053 | ||
4054 | wxMSW: | |
4055 | ||
4056 | - Implemented wxPoint as identical to POINT on Windows, and | |
4057 | altered wxDC wxPoint functions to use wxPoint directly in | |
4058 | Windows functions, for efficiency. | |
4059 | - Cured wxASSERT bug in wxStatusBar95. | |
4060 | - #ifdefed out some bits in oleutils.cpp for compilers that | |
4061 | don't support it. | |

4081 | - Changed wxMenuItem::SetBackColor to SetBackgroundColour, | |
4082 | SetTextColor to SetTextColour, and added or made public several | |
4083 | wxMenuItem accessors. | |
4084 | - Added two overloads to wxRegion::Contains. Added | |
4085 | wxRegion::IsEmpty for a more consistent naming convention. | |
4086 | - Added Vadim's wxDataObject and wxDropSource. | |
4087 | - ENTER/LEAVE events now work. | |
4088 | - Cured wxMemoryDC bug where the DC wasn't being deleted. | |
4089 | - Cured wxGauge SetSize major bugginess. | |
4090 | - Cured problem where if a GDI object was created on the stack, | |
4091 | then went out of scope, then another object was selected into | |
4092 | the DC, GDI objects would leak. This is because the assignment | |
4093 | to e.g. wxDC::m_pen would delete the GDI object without it first | |
4094 | being selected out of the DC. Cured by selecting the old DC object | |
4095 | first, then doing the assignment. | |
4096 | - Split up wxGaugeMSW, wxGauge95, wxSliderMSW, wxSlider95 | |
4097 | - Various other bug fixes and additions. | |

4105 | ---------------------- | |
4106 | ||
4107 | wxMSW: | |
4108 | ||
4109 | - Added desiredWidth, desiredHeight parameters to wxBitmapHandler | |
4110 | and wxIcon functions so that you can specify what size of | |
4111 | icon should be loaded. Probably will remain a Windows-specific thing. | |
4112 | - wxStatusBar95 now works for MDI frames. | |
4113 | - Toolbars in MDI frames now behave normally. They still | |
4114 | require application-supplied positioning code though. | |
4115 | - Changed installation instructions, makefiles and batch files | |
4116 | for compiling with Gnu-Win32/Mingw32/EGCS. Also timercmn.cpp | |
4117 | change to support Mingw32/EGCS. Bison now used by default. | |

4121 | ||
e3a43801 JS |
4122 | wxMSW: |
4123 | ||
4124 | - Cured bug in wxStatusBar95 that caused a crash if multiple | |
4125 | fields were used. | |
4126 | - Added Gnu-Win32 b19/Mingw32 support by changing resource | |
4127 | compilation and pragmas. | |
4128 | - Cured wxMenu bug introduced in alpha 8 - didn't respond to | |
4129 | commands because VZ changed the id setting in wxMenu::MSWCommand. | |
4130 | ||
4131 | Generic: | |
4132 | ||
c801d85f KB |
4133 | - Corrected some bugs, such as the wxModule compilation problem. |
4134 | - Added Gnu-Win32 b19/Mingw32 support by changing resource | |
4135 | compilation and pragmas. | |
4136 | - Changed SIZEOF to WXSIZEOF. | |
4137 | ||

4139 | ------------------------ | |
4140 | ||
e3a43801 JS |
4141 | wxMSW: |
4142 | ||
4143 | - Added IsNull to wxGDIObject to check if the ref data is present or not. | |
4144 | - Added PNG handler and sample - doesn't work for 16-bit PNGs for | |
4145 | some reason :-( | |
4146 | - Added wxJoystick class and event handling, and simple demo. | |
4147 | - Added simple wxWave class. Needs Stop() function. | |
4148 | - Added wxModule (module.h/module.cpp) to allow definition | |
fc2171bd | 4149 | of modules to be initialized and cleaned up on wxWidgets |
e3a43801 JS |
4150 | startup/exit. |
4151 | - Start of Mingw32 compatibility (see minimal and dialogs samples | |
4152 | makefile.m95 files, and install.txt). | |
4153 | - Note: Windows printing has stopped working... will investigate. | |
4154 | VADIM'S CHANGES: | |
4155 | - Updated wxString: bug fixes, added wxArrayString, some | |
4156 | compatibility functions. | |
4157 | - Updated log.h/cpp, added wxApp::CreateLogTarget. | |
4158 | - file.h: new wxTempFile class. | |
4159 | - defs.h: added wxSB_SIZE_GRIP for wxStatusBar95 | |
4160 | - statbr95: wxStatusBar95 control. | |
4161 | - registry.h/cpp: wxRegKey class for Win95 registry. | |
4162 | - listbox.cpp: corrected some bugs with owner-drawn listboxes. | |
4163 | - wxConfig and wxFileConfig classes. | |
4164 | ||
4165 | Generic: | |
4166 | ||
c801d85f KB |
4167 | - Added src/other/png, src/other/zlib directories. |
4168 | - Added samples/png. | |
4169 | - IMPORTANT: Changed 'no id' number from 0 to -1, in wxEVT_ macros. | |
4170 | Porters, please check particularly your wxTreeCtrl and wxListCtrl | |
4171 | header files. | |
4172 | - Added modules.h/cpp, config.cpp, fileconf.cpp, textfile.cpp/h. | |

4175 | ------------------------ | |
4176 | ||
e3a43801 JS |
4177 | wxMSW: |
4178 | ||
4179 | - Added tab classes, tab sample. | |
4180 | - Now can return FALSE from OnInit and windows will be | |
4181 | cleaned up properly before exit. | |
4182 | - Improved border handling so panels don't get borders | |
4183 | automatically. | |
4184 | - Debugged MDI activation from Window menu. | |
4185 | - Changes to memory debug handling, including checking for | |
4186 | memory leaks on application exit - but see issues.txt for | |
4187 | unresolved issues. | |
4188 | - Added wxTaskBarIcon (taskbar.cpp/h, plus samples/taskbar) | |
4189 | to allow maintenance of an icon in the Windows 95 taskbar | |
4190 | tray area. | |
fc2171bd | 4191 | - Got MFC sample working (MFC and wxWidgets in the same |
e3a43801 JS |
4192 | application), partly by tweaking ntwxwin.mak settings. |
4193 | - Got DLL compilation working again (VC++). | |
4194 | - Changed wxProp/Dialog Editor filenames. | |
4195 | ||
4196 | Generic: | |
4197 | ||
c801d85f KB |
4198 | - Added tab classes, tab sample. |
4199 | - Revised memory.cpp, memory.h slightly; memory.h now #defines | |
4200 | new to WXDEBUG_NEW in DEBUG mode. Windows implementation app.cpp | |
4201 | now checks for leaks on exit. Added memcheck sample. | |
4202 | See src/msw/issues.txt for more details. | |
4203 | - resource.h, resource.cpp changed to make wxDefaultResourceTable | |
4204 | a pointer. Now initialize resource system with | |
4205 | wxInitializeResourceSystem and wxCleanUpResourceSystem, to | |
4206 | allow better control of memory. | |
4207 | - wxString now derives from wxObject, to enable memory leak | |
4208 | checking. | |
4209 | - Added some #include fixes in various files, plus changed | |
4210 | float to long in wxToolBar files. | |
4211 | ||
4212 | Alpha 6, March 10th 1998 | |
4213 | ------------------------ | |
4214 | ||
e3a43801 JS |
4215 | wxMSW: |
4216 | ||
4217 | - Found stack error bug - stopped unwanted OnIdle recursion. | |
4218 | - Removed bug in wxTreeCtrl::InsertItem I added in alpha 5. | |
4219 | - Changed exit behaviour in wxApp/wxFrame/wxDialog. Now will | |
4220 | check if the number of top-level windows is zero before | |
4221 | exiting. Also, wxApp::GetTopWindow will return either | |
4222 | m_topWindow or the first member of wxTopLevelWindows, so you | |
4223 | don't have to call wxApp::SetTopWindow. | |
4224 | - Added dynarray.h/dynarray.cpp (from Vadim). | |
4225 | - Added first cut at OLE drag and drop (from Vadim). dnd sample | |
4226 | added. Drop target only at this stage. See src/msw/ole/*.cpp, | |
4227 | wx/include/msw/ole/*.h. WIN32 only because of UUID usage. | |
4228 | Doesn't work with GnuWin32 - no appropriate headers e.g. for | |
4229 | IUnknown. | |
4230 | Doesn't work with BC++ either - crashes on program startup. | |
4231 | - Added Vadim's owner-draw modifications - will probably remain | |
4232 | Windows-only. This enhances wxMenu, wxListBox. See ownerdrw sample. | |
4233 | - Added wxLB_OWNERDRAW for owner-draw listboxes. | |
4234 | - Vadim's wxCheckListBox derives from wxListBox. See checklst sample. | |
4235 | Doesn't entirely work for WIN16. | |
4236 | - Vadim has added wxMenuItem as a separate file menuitem.cpp. It | |
4237 | can also be used as an argument to wxMenu::Append, not just for | |
4238 | internal implementation. | |
4239 | - Some #ifdefs done for MINGW32 compilation (just alter OPTIONS | |
4240 | in makeg95.env, together with mingw32.bat). However, resource | |
4241 | binding is not working yet so most apps with dialogs crash. | |
4242 | ||
4243 | Generic: | |
4244 | ||
c801d85f KB |
4245 | - Added Vadim's dynarray.h, dynarray.cpp. |
4246 | - Added Vadim's menuitem.cpp. | |
4247 | - Added Windows-specific wxCheckListBox, | |
4248 | owner-draw wxListBox, and drag-and-drop | |
4249 | (see docs/msw/changes.txt). | |
4250 | ||

4254 | wxMSW: |
4255 | ||
4256 | - GENERIC AND MSW-SPECIFIC CODE NOW TREATED AS TWO SEPARATE | |
4257 | DISTRIBUTIONS. This change log will therefore now refer to | |
4258 | the Windows-specific code only. See docs/changes.txt for generic | |
4259 | changes. | |
4260 | - Removed Windows-specific reference counting system (GDI | |
4261 | resources were cleaned up in idle time) - minimal | |
4262 | advantages now we have a wxWin reference counting system. | |
4263 | - Added missing WXDLLEXPORT keywords so DLL compilation works | |
4264 | again. | |
4265 | - Removed most warnings for GnuWin32 compilation. | |
4266 | - Added wxRegion/wxRegionIterator, but haven't yet used it in | |
4267 | e.g. wxDC. | |
4268 | ||
4269 | Generic: | |

4271 | - GENERIC AND MSW-SPECIFIC CODE NOW TREATED AS TWO SEPARATE |
4272 | DISTRIBUTIONS. This change log will therefore now refer to | |
4273 | the generic code only. See docs/msw/changes.txt for Windows-specific | |
4274 | changes. | |
4275 | - Readmes, change logs and installation files now go in | |
4276 | platform-specific directories under docs, e.g. docs/msw, | |
4277 | docs/gtk. | |
4278 | - Added DECLARE_APP and IMPLEMENT_APP macros so wxApp object gets | |
4279 | created dynamically, not as a global object. | |
4280 | - Put wxColour into wx/msw/colour.h, src/msw/colour.cpp. | |
4281 | - Changed names of some include/wx/generic headers to be | |
4282 | consistent and to conform to gcc pragma conventions. Also | |
4283 | changed choicesg.cpp to choicdgg.cpp. | |
4284 | - Added gcc pragmas. | |
4285 | - Added gtk inclusion in include/wx headers. | |
4286 | - Added consistent file headings to source and headers. | |
4287 | - Removed lang.cpp, lang.h and references to wxSTR_... variables; | |
4288 | added a few references to wxTransString. | |
4289 | - Added operator to wxTransString that converts automatically | |
4290 | to wxString, so we can say e.g. wxMessageBox(wxTransString("Hello"), ...). | |
4291 | - samples/internat now works (minimally). | |
4292 | - Added wxMouseEvent::GetPosition and | |
4293 | wxMouseEvent::GetLogicalPosition, both returning wxPoints. | |
4294 | - Made wxSize and wxRect contain longs not ints. | |
2edb0bde | 4295 | - Cured some memory leaks (thanks Vadim). |
c801d85f KB |
4296 | - Tidied up OnIdle and introduced RequestMore/MoreRequested so |
4297 | will only keep processing OnIdle if it returns TRUE from | |
4298 | MoreRequested. | |
4299 | ||
4300 | Alpha 4, 31st January 1998 | |

4302 | ||
e3a43801 JS |
4303 | All: |
4304 | ||
c801d85f KB |
4305 | - Changed wxDC functions to take longs instead of floats. GetSize now takes |
4306 | integer pointers, plus a version that returns a wxSize. | |
4307 | - const keyword added to various wxDC functions. | |
4308 | - Under Windows, wxDC no longer has any knowledge of whether | |
4309 | an associated window is scrolled or not. Instead, the device | |
4310 | origin is set by wxScrolledWindow in wxScrolledWindow::PrepareDC. | |
4311 | - wxScrolledWindow applications can optionally override the virtual OnDraw | |
4312 | function instead of using the OnPaint event handler. The wxDC passed to | |
4313 | OnDraw will be translated by PrepareDC to reflect scrolling. | |
4314 | When drawing outside of OnDraw, must call PrepareDC explicitly. | |
4315 | - wxToolBarBase/wxToolBarSimple similarly changed to allow for | |
4316 | scrolling toolbars. | |
4317 | - Integrated wxPostScriptDC patches for 1.xx by Chris Breeze, | |
4318 | to help printing with multiple pages. | |
4319 | - IPC classes given base classes (wxConnectionBase etc.) which | |
4320 | define the API used by different implementations. DDE | |
4321 | implementation updated to use these base classes. | |
4322 | - wxHelpInstance now separated into wxHelpControllerBase (base | |
4323 | for all implementations), wxWinHelpController (uses standard | |
2edb0bde | 4324 | WinHelp), wxXLPHelpController (talks to wxHelp by DDE or |
c801d85f KB |
4325 | TCP/IP). There will be others eventually, such as |
4326 | wxHTMLHelpController for Microsoft (and Netscape?) HTML Help. | |
4327 | - Added Vadim Zeitlin's wxString class plus | |
4328 | internationalization code (gettext simulation, wxLocale, etc.). | |
4329 | New files from Vadim: | |
4330 | include\wx\string.h | |
4331 | include\wx\debug.h | |
4332 | include\wx\file.h | |
4333 | include\wx\log.h | |
4334 | include\wx\intl.h | |
4335 | src\common\string.cpp | |
4336 | src\common\log.cpp | |
4337 | src\common\intl.cpp | |
4338 | src\common\file.cpp | |
4339 | No longer use GNU wxString files. | |
4340 | - Split off file-related functions into include\wx\filefn.h and | |
4341 | src\common\filefn.cpp. | |
4342 | - Borland C++ support (WIN32) for main library and | |
4343 | samples, using makefile.b32 files. | |
4344 | - Preparation done for allowing BC++ to compile wxWin as a DLL, | |
4345 | including changes to defs.h. | |
4346 | - wxIntPoint removed, wxPoint is now int, and wxRealPoint | |
4347 | introduced. | |
4348 | - Added wxShowEvent (generated when window is being shown or | |
4349 | hidden). | |
4350 | - Got minimal, docview, mdi samples working for 16-bit VC++ and | |
4351 | cured 16-bit problem with wxTextCtrl (removed global memory | |
4352 | trick). | |
4353 | - Updated GnuWin32 makefiles, checked minimal, mdi, docview samples. | |

4358 | All: |
4359 | ||
c801d85f KB |
4360 | - wxListCtrl, wxTreeCtrl, wxImageList classes done. |
4361 | - Instigated new file hierarchy, split files and classes up more logically. | |
4362 | - PrologIO and some other utils now put into core library. | |
4363 | - Revamped print/preview classes, added wxPageSetupDialog. | |
4364 | - Started documentation. | |

4371 | - EVT_... macros now have at least one argument, for conformance |
4372 | with MetroWerks compiler. | |
4373 | - Added ids to .wxr file format. | |
4374 | - Got Dialog Editor compiled and running again but need | |
4375 | to extend functionality to be in line with new controls. | |
4376 | Added dialoged\test app to allow dynamic loading of .wxr files | |
4377 | for testing purposes. | |
4378 | - Rewrote wxBitmap to allow installable file type | |
4379 | handlers. | |
4380 | - Rewrote wxBitmapButton, wxStaticBitmap to not use Fafa. | |
4381 | - Wrote most of wxTreeCtrl and sample (need wxImageList to implement it | |
4382 | fully). | |
4383 | - Added back wxRadioBox. | |
4384 | - Tidied up wx_main.cpp, wxApp class, putting PenWin code in | |
4385 | a separate file. | |
4386 | ||

c801d85f KB |
4392 | At this point, the following has been achieved: |
4393 | ||
4394 | - A lot, but not all, of the code has been revamped for better | |
4395 | naming conventions, protection of data members, and use of | |
4396 | wxString instead of char *. | |
4397 | - Obsolete functionality deleted (e.g. default wxPanel layout, | |
4398 | old system event system) and code size reduced. | |
4399 | - Class hierarchy changed (see design doc) - base classes such | |
4400 | as wxbWindow now removed. | |
4401 | - No longer includes windows.h in wxWin headers, by using stand-in | |
4402 | Windows types where needed e.g. WXHWND. | |
4403 | - PrologIO revised. | |
4404 | - wxScrolledWindow, wxStatusBar and new MDI classes added. | |
2edb0bde | 4405 | MDI is now achieved using separate classes, not window styles. |
c801d85f KB |
4406 | - wxSystemSettings added, and made use of to reflect standard |
4407 | Windows settings. | |
4408 | - SetButtonFont/SetLabelFont replaced by SetFont; font and colour | |
4409 | settings mucho rationalised. | |
4410 | - All windows are now subclassed with the same window proc to make | |
4411 | event handling far more consistent. Old internal wxWnd and derived | |
4412 | classes removed. | |
4413 | - API for controls revised, in particular addition of | |
4414 | wxValidator parameters and removal of labels for some controls. | |
4415 | - 1 validator written: see examples/validate. | |
4416 | - Event table system introduced (see most samples and | |
4417 | wx_event.cpp/ProcessEvent, wx_event.h). wxEvtHandler | |
4418 | made more flexible, with Push/PopEventHandler allowing a chain | |
4419 | of event handlers. | |
4420 | - wxRadioBox removed - will be added back soon. | |
4421 | - Toolbar class hierarchy revised: | |
4422 | wxToolBarBase | |
4423 | wxToolBarSimple (= old wxToolBar) | |
dbd94b75 | 4424 | wxToolBar95 (= old wxButtonBar under Win95) |
c801d85f KB |
4425 | wxToolBarMSW (= old wxButtonBar under WIN16/WIN32) |
4426 | - Constraint system debugged somewhat (sizers now work properly). | |
4427 | - wxFileDialog, wxDirDialog added; other common dialogs now | |
4428 | have class equivalents. Generic colour and font dialogs | |
4429 | rewritten to not need obsolete panel layout. | |
4430 | - .wxr resource system partially reinstated, though needs | |
4431 | an integer ID for controls. Hopefully the resource system | |
4432 | will be replaced by something better and more efficient | |
4433 | in the future. | |
4434 | - Device contexts no longer stored with window and accessed | |
4435 | with GetDC - use wxClientDC, wxPaintDC, wxWindowDC stack | |
4436 | variables instead. | |
4437 | - wxSlider uses trackbar class under Win95, and wxSL_LABELS flag | |
4438 | determines whether labels are shown. Other Win95-specific flags | |
4439 | introduced, e.g. for showing ticks. | |
4440 | - Styles introduced for dealing with 3D effects per window, for | |
4441 | any window: all Win95 3D effects supported, plus transparent windows. | |
4442 | - Major change to allow 3D effect support without CTL3D, under | |
4443 | Win95. | |
4444 | - Bitmap versions of button and checkbox separated out into new | |
4445 | classes, but unimplemented as yet because I intend to remove | |
4446 | the need for Fafa - it apparently causes GPFs in Win95 OSR 2. | |
4447 | - utils/wxprop classes working (except maybe wxPropertyFormView) | |
4448 | in preparation for use in Dialog Editor. | |
4449 | - GNU-WIN32 compilation verified (a month or so ago). |
