5 | INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES SINCE 2.8.x | |
6 | ================================ | |
7 | ||
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 | ||
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 | |
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 | |
25 | strings are always ANSI; may still be NULL). This change is normally | |
26 | backwards compatible except: | |
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 | |
34 | should be replaced with an empty string. | |
35 | ||
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. | |
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. | |
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 | |
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. | |
52 | ||
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. | |
58 | Also notice that connection classes should change the parameter types of | |
59 | their overridden OnExecute() or override a more convenient OnExec() instead. | |
60 | ||
61 | ||
62 | wxODBC and contrib libraries removal | |
63 | ------------------------------------ | |
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 | ||
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 | |
73 | open for further development by volunteers. | |
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 | ||
78 | ||
79 | Changes in behaviour not resulting in compilation errors, please read this! | |
80 | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | |
81 | ||
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 | ||
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 | ||
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 | ||
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 | ||
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 | ||
109 | - wxWindow::Freeze/Thaw() are not virtual any more, if you overrode them in | |
110 | your code you need to override DoFreeze/DoThaw() instead now. | |
111 | ||
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 | ||
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 | ||
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. | |
124 | ||
125 | - wxDocument::OnNewDocument() doesn't call OnCloseDocument() any more. | |
126 | ||
127 | - If you use wxScrolledWindow::SetTargetWindow() you must implement its | |
128 | GetSizeAvailableForScrollTarget() method, please see its documentation for | |
129 | more details. | |
130 | ||
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 | ||
136 | - wxLoadFileSelector() now allows the user to select existing files only. | |
137 | ||
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 | ||
142 | - wxTreeCtrl::GetSelection now asserts if the tree has the wxTR_MULTIPLE style. | |
143 | Instead use GetSelections() for multiple items; or if you want only the | |
144 | single item last touched, the new wxTreeCtrl::GetFocusedItem. | |
145 | ||
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 | ||
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 | |
155 | new constructors taking wxSize for the gap argument is preferred. The same | |
156 | applies to wxFlexGridSizer as well. | |
157 | ||
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). | |
162 | ||
163 | - wxTextCtrl::LoadFile no longer sends a text update event. | |
164 | ||
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 | ||
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 | ||
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 | ||
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 | |
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. | |
186 | ||
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 | ||
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 | ||
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 | ||
202 | ||
203 | Changes in behaviour which may result in compilation errors | |
204 | ----------------------------------------------------------- | |
205 | ||
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 | ||
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 | ||
213 | - wxWindow::ProcessEvent() (and other wxEvtHandler methods inherited by wxWindow) | |
214 | has been made protected to prevent wrongly using it instead of correct | |
215 | GetEventHandler()->ProcessEvent(). | |
216 | New ProcessWindowEvent() was added for convenience. | |
217 | ||
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 | ||
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 | ||
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 | ||
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: | |
240 | ||
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() : "") | |
256 | ||
257 | - wxCtime() and wxAsctime() return char*; this is incompatible with Unicode | |
258 | build in wxWidgets 2.8 that returned wchar_t*. | |
259 | ||
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 | ||
267 | - Virtual wxHtmlParser::AddText() takes wxString, not wxChar*, argument now. | |
268 | ||
269 | - Functions that took wxChar* arguments that could be NULL in wxWidgets 2.8 | |
270 | are deprecated and passing NULL to them won't compile anymore, wxEmptyString | |
271 | must be used instead. | |
272 | ||
273 | - wxTmemxxx() functions take either wxChar* or char*, not void*: use memxxx() | |
274 | with void pointers. | |
275 | ||
276 | - Removed insecure wxGets() and wxTmpnam() functions. | |
277 | ||
278 | - Removed global GetLine() function from wx/protocol/protocol.h, use | |
279 | wxProtocol::ReadLine() instead. | |
280 | ||
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. | |
284 | ||
285 | - wxWindow::Next/PrevControlId() don't exist any more as they couldn't be | |
286 | implemented correctly any longer because automatically generated ids are not | |
287 | necessarily allocated consecutively now. Use GetChildren() to find the | |
288 | next/previous control sibling instead. | |
289 | ||
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. | |
293 | ||
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 | ||
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 | ||
306 | - wxListCtrlCompare function used with wxListCtrl::SortItems() must now declare | |
307 | its third parameter as wxIntPtr and not long (this allows passing pointers | |
308 | to it under 64 bit platforms too). | |
309 | ||
310 | - Global wxPendingEvents and wxPendingEventsLocker objects were removed. | |
311 | You may use wxEventLoopBase::SuspendProcessingOfPendingEvents instead of | |
312 | locking wxPendingEventsLocker now. | |
313 | ||
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 | ||
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 | ||
324 | - wxList::Member() now returns bool and not a pointer/iterator. This shouldn't | |
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 | ||
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 | ||
334 | - wxST_MARKUP doesn't exist any more, use wxControl::SetLabelMarkup() instead. | |
335 | ||
336 | ||
337 | Deprecated methods and their replacements | |
338 | ----------------------------------------- | |
339 | ||
340 | - wxCreateGreyedImage() deprecated, use wxImage::ConvertToGreyscale() instead. | |
341 | - wxString::GetWriteBuf() and UngetWriteBuf() deprecated, using wxStringBuffer | |
342 | or wxStringBufferLength instead. | |
343 | - wxDIRCTRL_SHOW_FILTERS style is deprecated, filters are alwsys shown if | |
344 | specified so this style should simply be removed | |
345 | - wxDocManager::MakeDefaultName() replaced by MakeNewDocumentName() and | |
346 | wxDocument::GetPrintableName() with GetUserReadableName() which are simpler | |
347 | to use | |
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. | |
351 | - wxConnection::OnExecute() is not formally deprecated yet but new code should | |
352 | use simpler OnExec() version which is called with wxString argument | |
353 | - Various wxMenuItem methods were deprecated in favour of more consisently | |
354 | named new versions: | |
355 | . GetLabel() is now GetItemLabelText() | |
356 | . GetText() is not GetItemLabel() | |
357 | . GetLabelFromText() is now GetLabelText() | |
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. | |
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. | |
365 | - EVT_CALENDAR_DAY event has been deprecated, use EVT_CALENDAR_SEL_CHANGED. | |
366 | - EVT_CALENDAR_MONTH and EVT_CALENDAR_YEAR events are deprecated, | |
367 | use EVT_CALENDAR_PAGE_CHANGED which replaces both of them. | |
368 | - wxCalendarCtrl::EnableYearChange() and wxCAL_NO_YEAR_CHANGE are deprecated. | |
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. | |
376 | - wxTE_AUTO_SCROLL style is deprecated as it's always on by default anyhow. | |
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. | |
379 | - wxDos2UnixFilename, wxUnix2DosFilename, wxStripExtension, wxGetTempFileName, | |
380 | wxExpandPath, wxContractPath, wxRealPath, wxCopyAbsolutePath, wxSplitPath | |
381 | were deprecated in favour of wxFileName methods. See docs for more info. | |
382 | - wxEvtHandler::TryValidator/Parent() are deprecated, override the new and | |
383 | documented TryBefore/After() methods if you used to override these ones. | |
384 | - wxGetMultipleChoices() is deprecated, use wxGetSelectedChoices() which has | |
385 | the same signature but returns -1 and not 0 if the dialog was cancelled. | |
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. | |
391 | - wxMouseState::{Left,Middle,Right}Down() were renamed to XXXIsDown() for | |
392 | consistency with wxMouseEvent and the old names were deprecated. | |
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. | |
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. | |
399 | - wxPORTRAIT and wxLANDSCAPE are now elements of wxPrintOrientation enum and | |
400 | wxPrintData::SetOrientation(int) takes wxPrintOrientation and not int. | |
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. | |
404 | ||
405 | Major new features in this release | |
406 | ---------------------------------- | |

2317 | - Changed calculation of scrolling area to not clip away some bits | |
2318 | due to a rounding error. | |

2354 | wxGTK: | |
2355 | ||
2356 | - Added printing support by way of using libgnomeprint. The library | |
2357 | now checks at runtime, if the library is installed and will use it | |
2358 | if it is. Otherwise, it will fall back to the old PostScript printing | |
2359 | code, from which the Pango drawing code was removed. | |

2365 | after wxTextCtrl creation if you really need to. (Mart Raudsepp) | |
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. | |
2370 | - wxTextCtrl text insertion efficiency fixed. (Mart Raudsepp) | |

2480 | builds of wxWidgets and to return flags/libs for selected libraries only | |
2481 | - wx-config has new --version-full option | |

2559 | 2.5.2 | |
2560 | ----- | |
2561 | ||
2562 | All: | |
2563 | ||
2564 | - Hindi translation added (Dhananjaya Sharma) | |
2565 | - Brazilian Portuguese translation added (E. A. Tacao) | |
2566 | - wxDynamicCast() now uses static_cast<wxObject *> internally and so using it | |
2567 | with anything not deriving from wxObject will fail at compile time (instead | |
2568 | of run-time) now | |
2569 | - when wxUSE_STL == 1 and STL provides quasi-standard hash_map/hash_set, | |
2570 | wxHashMap/wxHashSet are just typedefs for them. This makes impossible | |
2571 | to forward declare these classes. | |
2572 | ||
2573 | All (GUI): | |
2574 | ||
2575 | - wxHtmlWindow now delays image scaling until rendering, | |
2576 | resulting in much better display of scaled images | |
2577 | - Added UpdateSize to wxSplitterWindow to allow layout while hidden | |
2578 | - implemented Freeze/Thaw() for wxGenericTreeCtrl (Kevin Hock) | |
2579 | - support for KOI8-U encoding added (Yuriy Tkachenko) | |
2580 | - The old wxADJUST_MINSIZE behaviour is now the default behaviour for | |
2581 | sizer items that are windows. This means that GetAdjustedBestSize | |
2582 | will now be called by default to determine the minimum size that a | |
2583 | window in a sizer should have. If you want to still use the initial | |
2584 | size (and not the BestSize) then use the wxFIXED_MINSIZE flag. When | |
2585 | windows are added to a sizer their initial size is made the window's | |
2586 | min size using SetSizeHints, and calls to wxSizer::SetItemMinSize | |
2587 | are also forwarded to SetSizeHints for window items. | |
2588 | - added wxRegEx::GetMatchCount() | |
2589 | - it is now possible to display images in wxHtmlListBox | |
2590 | ||
2591 | wxMSW: | |
2592 | ||
2593 | - wxWindow::Freeze()/Thaw() can now be nested | |
2594 | - Added wxSP_NO_XP_THEME style to wxSplitterWindow to switch off | |
2595 | XP theming (some applications look bad without 3D borders) | |
2596 | - wxMenuBar::GetLabelTop() doesn't include '&'s in the label any more | |
2597 | - wxRegConf couldn't read global settings without admin privileges and didn't | |
2598 | even try to do it by default -- now it does | |
2599 | - wxTaskBarIcon must be explicitly destroyed now, otherwise the application | |
2600 | won't exit even though there are no top level windows | |
2601 | - wxFileName::GetModificationTime() works with opened files too now | |
2602 | - wxDC::GetClippingBox() now works even for clipping regions created by Windows | |
2603 | - fixed wxFileDataObject in Unicode build (Alex D) | |
2604 | - subindented paragraphs support (Tim Kosse) | |
2605 | ||
2606 | wxGTK: | |
2607 | ||
2608 | - added support for wxTE_RIGHT and wxTE_CENTRE styles under GTK2 (Mart Raudsepp) | |
2609 | ||
2610 | wxMotif: | |
2611 | ||
2612 | - removed wxMenuItem::DeleteSubMenu() | |
2613 | - wxButtons use Motif default size, which is smaller than it used to be | |
2614 | and closer to wxMSW/wxGTK look. This can be disabled by setting | |
2615 | motif.largebuttons system option to 1 (see wxSystemOptions). | |
2616 | ||
2617 | wxUniv/X11: | |
2618 | ||
2619 | - implemented DrawRoundedRectangle() (clawghoul) | |
2620 | ||
2621 | wxHTML: | |
2622 | ||
2623 | - improved tables and lists layout algorithms (Tim Kosse) | |
2624 | - <div> handling fix (Xavier Nodet) | |
2625 | ||
2626 | Unix: | |
2627 | ||
2628 | - fixed priorities of mailcap entries (David Hart) | |
2629 | - added "wx-config --libs=std,<extra>" syntax (i.e. support for "std") | |
2630 | ||
2631 | wxODBC: | |
2632 | ||
2633 | - Full Unicode support is now available | |
2634 | - BLOB support is working | |
2635 | ||
2636 | ||

2797 | std::vector, wxList from std::list. In addition wxHashTable will be | |
2798 | implemented in terms of wxHashMap. | |
2799 | - Added wxList::compatibility_iterator. Can be used like wxNode* (except | |
2800 | it can't be delete()d). It permits writing code which will work | |

2828 | - it is now possible to use several wxFileHistory objects in the same menu | |
2829 | by giving them different base IDs (Dimitri Schoolwerth) | |
2830 | - Added wxTLW::SetShape with implementations for wxMSW and wxGTK (so far) | |
2831 | - FL: removed const from EnableTool parameters | |
2832 | - FL: signal child window when toolbar is closed | |
2833 | - In various places, changed tests for pathsep on last char of string to call | |
2834 | wxEndsWithPathSeparator(s) | |
2835 | - Added to defs.h a couple of macros (wxPtrToULong & wxULongToPtr) | |
2836 | - Minor improvements to document/view framework, including | |
2837 | delayed deletion of a document (until after the user has chosen | |
2838 | a new document), and more intelligent addition of filenames to | |
2839 | the file history, including not adding filenames if not using the | |
2840 | default extension for the template | |
2841 | - sped up wxImage::Scale using fixed point arithmetic (Wade Brainerd) | |
2842 | - Added BLOB support to wxDB (John Skiff) | |
2843 | - wxWizard now validates when pressing Back or Next | |
2844 | - Implemented wxNotebook::DoGetBestSize so Fit now works | |
2845 | - Added FindItemByPosition to wxMenu | |

2850 | - Added m_ prefix to wxColourData and wxFontData members | |
2851 | - Added wxHtmlPrintout::AddFilter so HTML printing can be subject to | |
2852 | custom filters as well as HTML viewing. | |
2853 | - Moved wxApp::SendIdleEvents and wxApp::ProcessIdle into common code. | |
2854 | - wxWindow::OnInternalIdle is now used in all ports, and ensures that | |
2855 | user OnIdle events do not interfere with crucial internal processing. | |
2856 | - wxWindow::UpdateWindowUI is now a documented function that | |
2857 | sends wxUpdateUIEvents, and can be overridden. It has a helper function | |
2858 | DoUpdateWindowUI for taking appropriate wxUpdateUIEvent action. | |
2859 | - Added functions to wxUpdateUIEvent: Set/GetMode, Set/GetUpdateInterval, | |
2860 | CanUpdate, to assist with optimising update event frequency. | |
2861 | - Added functions to wxIdleEvent: Set/GetMode, CanSend, to | |
2862 | determine whether a window should receive idle events. | |
2863 | - Added wxWS_EX_PROCESS_IDLE, wxWS_EX_PROCESS_UI_UPDATES window | |
2864 | styles for use with conservative idle and update event modes. | |
2865 | - send menu update events only when a menu is about to be used (MSW/GTK) | |
2866 | - improved event processing performance (Hans Van Leemputten) | |
2867 | - added wxMirrorDC class | |
2868 | - printing improvements: GetPageInfo() gets called after the DC has | |
2869 | been set and after OnPreparePrinting() has been called so it can | |
2870 | report the number of pages accurately; doesn't try to set | |
2871 | number of pages in print dialog, in common with other Windows apps; | |
2872 | wxHTML easy printing's preview shows number of pages | |
2873 | correctly; preview scrollbars are set correctly; keyboard navigation | |
2874 | improved | |
2875 | ||

2900 | - fixed bug in generic file selector causing incomplete file extensions to | |
2901 | be appended to filenames with no extension | |
2902 | - added wxTextCtrl::SetSelection implementation for GTK+ 2 | |
2903 | - fixed wxTextCtrl::IsEditable() for GTK+ 2 | |

2947 | - implemented wxWakeUpIdle | |
2948 | - for Motif 2.0, used the native combobox widget instead of the GPL'd | |

2950 | with Motif 1.x compatibility | |
2951 | - implemented wxToggleButton | |
2952 | - wxRadioBox and wxStaticBox now use the default shadow (border) style | |

2970 | OLD CHANGES | |
2971 | =========== | |
2972 | ||
2973 | INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES SINCE 2.2.x | |
2974 | ================================ | |
2975 | ||
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 | ||
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 | ||
2986 | NB: if you want to build your program with different major versions | |
2987 | of wxWidgets you will probably find the wxCHECK_VERSION() macro | |
2988 | (see the documentation) useful. | |
2989 | ||
2990 | ||
2991 | wxBase: | |
2992 | ||
2993 | ! wxArray<T>::Remove(size_t) has been removed to fix compilation problems | |
2994 | under 64 bit architectures, please replace it with RemoveAt() in your | |
2995 | code. | |
2996 | ||
2997 | ! wxArray<T> macros have been changed to fix runtime problems under 64 bit | |
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 | ||
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 | ||
3009 | - small change to wxStopWatch::Pause() semantics, please see the documentation | |
3010 | ||
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) | |
3016 | ||
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 | ||
3021 | All (GUI): | |
3022 | ||
3023 | ! the event type constants are not constants any more but are dynamically | |
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 | |
3028 | but this is strongly discouraged, please consider changing your code | |
3029 | instead! | |
3030 | ||
3031 | ! wxDialog does not derive from wxPanel any longer - if you were using it in | |
3032 | your code, please update it. The quick fix for the most cases is to replace | |
3033 | the occurrences of wxPanel with wxWindow. | |
3034 | ||
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 | ||
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 | ||
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 | ||
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 | ||
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 | ||
3062 | - wxImage::ComputeHistogram()'s signature changed to | |
3063 | unsigned long ComputeHistogram(wxImageHistogram&) const | |
3064 | ||
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 | ||
3068 | - WXK_NUMLOCK and WXK_SCROLL keys no longer result in EVT_CHAR() events, | |
3069 | they only generate EVT_KEY_DOWN/UP() ones | |
3070 | ||
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 | ||
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 | ||
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>) | |
3083 | ||
3084 | wxMSW: | |
3085 | ||
3086 | ! build system changed: setup.h is not a static file in include/wx any more | |
3087 | but is created as part of the build process under lib/<toolkit>/wx | |
3088 | where <toolkit> is of the form (msw|univ)[dll][u][d]. You'll need to update | |
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 | |
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 | |
3093 | use the following consistent naming convention: wxmsw[ver][u][d].(lib|dll) | |
3094 | where 'u' appears for Unicode version, 'd' -- for the debug one and version | |
3095 | is only present for the DLLs builds. | |
3096 | ||
3097 | - child frames appear in the taskbar by default now, use wxFRAME_NO_TASKBAR | |
3098 | style to avoid it | |
3099 | ||
3100 | - all overloads of wxDC::SetClippingRegion() combine the given region with the | |
3101 | previously selected one instead of replacing it | |
3102 | ||
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) | |
3106 | ||
3107 | - wxHTML apps don't need to include wx/html/msw/wxhtml.rc in resources file | |
3108 | anymore. The file was removed from wxMSW | |
3109 | ||
3110 | ||
3111 | Unix ports: | |
3112 | ||
3113 | ! You should use `wx-config --cxxflags` in your makefiles instead of | |
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 | ||
3118 | ||
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 | |
3129 | (i.e. absence of race conditions) using the old API. | |
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 | ||

3778 | ||
3779 | Beta 5, February 18th 1999 | |
3780 | -------------------------- | |
3781 | ||
3782 | wxGTK: | |
3783 | ||
3784 | - wxExecute improved. | |
3785 | ||
3786 | wxMSW: | |
3787 | ||
3788 | - Fixed wxWindow::IsShown (::IsWindowVisible doesn't behave as | |
3789 | expected). | |
3790 | - Changed VC++ makefiles (.vc) so that it's possible to have | |

3826 | - Added wxRETAINED implementation for wxScrolledWindow. | |
3827 | - Cured scrolling display problem by adding XmUpdateDisplay. | |
3828 | - Tried to make lex-ing in the makefile more generic (command line | |
3829 | syntax should apply to both lex and flex). | |
3830 | - Changed file selector colours for consistency (except for buttons: | |
3831 | crashes for some reason). | |
3832 | - Fixed wxMotif version of wxImage::ConvertToBitmap (used new instead | |
3833 | of malloc, which causes memory problems). | |
3834 | ||
3835 | General: | |
3836 | ||
3837 | - Further doc improvements. | |
3838 | - wxGenericValidator added. | |
3839 | - Added wxImageModule to image.cpp, so adds/cleans up standard handlers | |
3840 | automatically. | |
3841 | ||
3842 | Beta 3, January 31st 1999 | |
3843 | ------------------------- | |
3844 | ||

3850 | ||
3851 | wxMSW: | |
3852 | ||
3853 | - wxRegConfig DeleteAll bug fixed. | |
3854 | - Makefiles for more compilers. | |

3877 | wxGTK: | |
3878 | ||
3879 | wxMSW: | |
3880 | ||
3881 | - 16-bit BC++ compilation/linking works albeit without the resource system. | |
3882 | ||
3883 | wxMotif: | |
3884 | ||
3885 | - Cured wxScreenDC origin problem so e.g. sash window sash is drawn at | |
3886 | the right place. | |
3887 | - Cured some widget table clashes. | |
3888 | - Added thread support (Robert). | |
3889 | - wxPoem sample now works. | |
3890 | ||
3891 | General: | |
3892 | ||
3893 | - Rearranged documentation a bit. | |
3894 | - Sash window uses area of first frame/dialog to paint over when drawing | |
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. | |
3898 | - Moved wxProp to main library (generic directory), created proplist | |
3899 | sample. | |

3902 | Beta 1, December 24th 1998 | |
3903 | -------------------------- | |

3905 | wxGTK: | |
3906 | ||
3907 | - Various | |
3908 | ||
3909 | wxMSW, wxMotif: not in sync with this release. | |
3910 | ||
3911 | ||
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. | |
3978 | - Added a parent-existence check to popup menu code to make it not crash. | |
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 | ||
4001 | Alpha 16, September 8th 1998 | |
4002 | ---------------------------- | |
4003 | ||
4004 | wxMSW: | |
4005 | ||
4006 | - Added wxSashWindow, wxSashLayoutWindow classes, and sashtest | |
4007 | sample. | |
4008 | - Guilhem's socket classes added, plus wxsocket sample. | |
4009 | - A few more makefiles added. | |
4010 | - GnuWin32/BC++ compatibility mods. | |
4011 | - Further doc updates. | |
4012 | - wxProp updates for correct working with wxGTK. | |
4013 | ||
4014 | wxMotif: | |
4015 | ||
4016 | - First start at Motif port. | |
4017 | - Made makefiles for wxMotif source directory and minimal sample. | |
4018 | - First go at wxApp, wxWindow, wxDialog, wxPen, wxBrush, wxFont, | |
4019 | wxColour, wxButton, wxCheckBox, wxTextCtrl, wxStaticText, | |
4020 | wxMenu, wxMenuItem, wxMenuBar | |
4021 | ||
4022 | Alpha 15, August 31st 1998 | |
4023 | -------------------------- | |
4024 | ||
4025 | wxMSW: | |
4026 | ||
4027 | - wxBitmap debugged. | |
4028 | - wxDC::GetDepth added. | |
4029 | - Contribution added whereby wxBitmap will be | |
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 | |
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. | |
4046 | - New wxAcceleratorTable class plus wxFrame::SetAcceleratorTable. | |
4047 | - Various additions from other folk, e.g. streams, wxConfig | |
4048 | changes, wxNotebook. | |
4049 | - Added wxDocMDIParentFrame, wxDocMDIChildFrame for doc/view. | |
4050 | ||
4051 | Alpha 13, July 8th 1998 | |
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. | |
4062 | - Added some operators to wxPoint, wxSize. | |
4063 | - Added inline wxDC functions using wxPoint, wxSize, wxRect. | |
4064 | ||
4065 | Alpha 12, July 7th 1998 | |
4066 | ----------------------- | |
4067 | ||
4068 | wxMSW: | |
4069 | ||
4070 | - Added wxApp::GetComCtl32Version, and wxTB_FLAT style, so can | |
4071 | have flat toolbars on Win98 or Win95 with IE >= 3 installed. | |
4072 | ||
4073 | Alpha 11, July 3rd 1998 | |
4074 | ----------------------- | |
4075 | ||
4076 | wxMSW: | |
4077 | ||
4078 | - Added thread.h, thread.cpp. | |
4079 | - Changed Enabled, Checked to IsEnabled, IsChecked in wxMenu, | |
4080 | wxMenuBar. | |
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. | |
4098 | ||
4099 | Generic: | |
4100 | ||
4101 | - Major work on Dialog Editor (still plenty to go). | |
4102 | - Expanded documentation a bit more. | |
4103 | ||

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. | |
4118 | ||
4119 | Alpha 9, April 27th 1998 | |
4120 | ------------------------ | |
4121 | ||
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 | ||
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 | ||
4138 | Alpha 8, April 17th 1998 | |
4139 | ------------------------ | |
4140 | ||
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 | |
4149 | of modules to be initialized and cleaned up on wxWidgets | |
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. | |

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 | ||
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. | |
4173 | ||
4174 | Alpha 7, March 30th 1998 | |
4175 | ------------------------ | |
4176 | ||
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. | |
4191 | - Got MFC sample working (MFC and wxWidgets in the same | |
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 | ||
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 | ||
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 | ||
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 | ||
4251 | Alpha 5, 14th February 1998 | |
4252 | -------------------------- | |
4253 | ||
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: | |
4270 | ||
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. | |
4295 | - Cured some memory leaks (thanks Vadim). | |
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 | |
4301 | -------------------------- | |
4302 | ||
4303 | All: | |
4304 | ||
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 | |
4324 | WinHelp), wxXLPHelpController (talks to wxHelp by DDE or | |
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. | |
4354 | ||
4355 | Alpha 3, September 1997 | |
4356 | ----------------------- | |
4357 | ||
4358 | All: | |
4359 | ||
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. | |
4365 | ||
4366 | Alpha 2, 30th April 1997 | |
4367 | ------------------------ | |
4368 | ||
4369 | All: | |
4370 | ||
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 | ||
4387 | Alpha 1, 5th April 1997 | |
4388 | ----------------------- | |
4389 | ||
4390 | Generic: | |
4391 | ||
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. | |
4405 | MDI is now achieved using separate classes, not window styles. | |
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) | |
4424 | wxToolBar95 (= old wxButtonBar under Win95) | |
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). |
