5INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES SINCE 2.4.x
6================================
7
8 Please take a few minutes to read the following list, especially
9 paying attention to the most important changes which are marked
10 with '!' in the first column.
11
12 Also please note that you should ensure that WXWIN_COMPATIBILITY_2_4
13 is defined to 1 if you wish to retain maximal compatibility with 2.4
14 series.
15
16! windows are no longer fully repainted when resized, use new style
17 wxFULL_REPAINT_ON_RESIZE to force this (wxNO_FULL_REPAINT_ON_RESIZE stll
18 exists but doesn't do anything any more, this behaviour is default now)
19
20
21- no initialization/cleanup can be done in wxApp/~wxApp because they are
22 now called much earlier/later than before; please move any exiting code
23 from there to wxApp::OnInit()/OnExit()
24- also, OnExit() is not called if OnInit() fails
25- wxTheApp can't be assigned to any longer, use wxApp::SetInstance() instead
26- wxFileType::GetIcon() returns wxIconLocation, not wxIcon
27- wxWindow::Clear() is now called ClearBackground()
28- pointer returned by wxFont::GetNativeFontInfo() must not be deleted now
