216 Beta 1, December 24th 1998
217 --------------------------
223 wxMSW, wxMotif: not in sync with this release.
226 Alpha 18, December 29th 1998
227 ----------------------------
231 - Win16 support working again (VC++ 1.5)
232 - Win16 now uses generic wxNotebook, wxListCtrl,
233 wxTreeCtrl -- more or less working now, although
234 a little work on wxNotebook is still needed.
235 Under 16-bit Windows, get assertion when you click
237 - Wrote 16-bit BC++ makefiles: samples don't yet link.
238 - Added CodeWarrior support to distribution courtesy
243 - Cured scrolling problem: scrollbars now show/hide themselves
244 without (permanently) resizing the window.
245 - Removed some commented-out lines in wxScrolledWindow::AdjustScrollbars
246 that disabled scrollbar paging.
247 - Set background colour of drawing area in wxWindow, so e.g. wxListCtrl
249 - Removed major bug whereby dialogs were unmanaged automatically
250 when any button was pressed.
251 - Fixed colours of wxWindow scrollbars, made list and text controls
252 have a white background.
253 - Fixed dialog colour setting.

262 Alpha 17, November 22nd 1998
263 ----------------------------
267 - More documentation updates, especially for
268 wxLayoutWindow classes and debugging facilities.
269 - Changed wxDebugContext to use wxDebugLog instead
271 - Now supports VC++ 6.0, and hopefully BC++ 5.0.
272 However, DLL support may be broken for BC++ since
273 VC++ 6 required changing of WXDLLEXPORT keyword
275 - Numerous miscellaneous changes.
279 - Reimplemented MDI using wxNotebook instead of the MDI widgets, which
280 were too buggy (probably not design for dynamic addition/removal of
282 - Some improvements to the wxNotebook implementation.
283 - wxToolBar now uses a bulletin board instead of a form, in an attempt
284 to make it possible to add ordinary wxControls to a toolbar.
285 - Cured problem with not being able to use global memory operators,
286 by defining two more global operators, so that the delete will match
287 the debugging implementation.
288 - Added wxUSE_DEBUG_NEW_ALWAYS so we can distinguish between using
289 global memory operators (usually OK) and #defining new to be
290 WXDEBUG_NEW (sometimes it might not be OK).
291 - Added time.cpp to makefile; set wxUSE_DATETIME to 1.
292 - Added a parent-existance check to popup menu code to make it not crash.
293 - Added some optimization in wxWindow::SetSize to produce less flicker.
294 It remains to be seen whether this produces any resize bugs.
296 It's a long time since I updated this file. Previously done:
298 - wxFrame, wxDialog done.
299 - wxScrolledWindow done (but backing pixmap not used at present).
300 - wxBitmap done though could be tidied it up at some point.
301 - Most basic controls are there, if not rigorously tested.
302 - Some MDI support (menus appear on child frames at present).
303 - wxNotebook almost done.
304 - wxToolBar done (horizontal only, which would be easy to extend
305 to vertical toolbars).
309 - Colour and font changing done (question mark over what happens
311 - Accelerators done (for menu items and buttons). Also event loop
312 tidied up in wxApp so that events are filtered through ProcessXEvent.
313 - wxWindow::GetUpdateRegion should now work.
315 Alpha 16, September 8th 1998
316 ----------------------------

331 - Made makefiles for wxMotif source directory and minimal sample.
332 - First go at wxApp, wxWindow, wxDialog, wxPen, wxBrush, wxFont,
333 wxColour, wxButton, wxCheckBox, wxTextCtrl, wxStaticText,
334 wxMenu, wxMenuItem, wxMenuBar
336 Alpha 15, August 31st 1998
337 --------------------------
342 - wxDC::GetDepth added.
343 - Contribution added whereby wxBitmap will be
344 converted to DC depth if they don't match.
345 - wxConfig API improved, documentation updated.
346 - Printing classes name conventions cleaned up.
347 - wxUpdateUIEvent now derives from wxCommandEvent
348 so event can travel up the window hierachy.
350 Alpha 14, July 31st 1998
351 ------------------------
355 - Toolbar API has been simplified, and now
356 wxFrame::GetClientArea returns the available client
357 area when toolbar, status bar etc. have been accounted for.
358 wxFrame::CreateToolBar added in line with CreateStatusBar.
359 - Documentation updates, incl. for wxToolBar.
360 - New wxAcceleratorTable class plus wxFrame::SetAcceleratorTable.
361 - Various additions from other folk, e.g. streams, wxConfig
363 - Added wxDocMDIParentFrame, wxDocMDIChildFrame for doc/view.
365 Alpha 13, July 8th 1998
366 -----------------------
370 - Implemented wxPoint as identical to POINT on Windows, and
371 altered wxDC wxPoint functions to use wxPoint directly in
372 Windows functions, for efficiency.
373 - Cured wxASSERT bug in wxStatusBar95.
374 - #ifdefed out some bits in oleutils.cpp for compilers that
376 - Added some operators to wxPoint, wxSize.
377 - Added inline wxDC functions using wxPoint, wxSize, wxRect.
379 Alpha 12, July 7th 1998
380 -----------------------
384 - Added wxApp::GetComCtl32Version, and wxTB_FLAT style, so can
385 have flat toolbars on Win98 or Win95 with IE >= 3 installed.
387 Alpha 11, July 3rd 1998
388 -----------------------
392 - Added thread.h, thread.cpp.
393 - Changed Enabled, Checked to IsEnabled, IsChecked in wxMenu,
395 - Changed wxMenuItem::SetBackColor to SetBackgroundColour,
396 SetTextColor to SetTextColour, and added or made public several
397 wxMenuItem accessors.
398 - Added two overloads to wxRegion::Contains. Added
399 wxRegion::IsEmpty for a more consistent naming convention.
400 - Added Vadim's wxDataObject and wxDropSource.
401 - ENTER/LEAVE events now work.
402 - Cured wxMemoryDC bug where the DC wasn't being deleted.
403 - Cured wxGauge SetSize major bugginess.
404 - Cured problem where if a GDI object was created on the stack,
405 then went out of scope, then another object was selected into
406 the DC, GDI objects would leak. This is because the assignment
407 to e.g. wxDC::m_pen would delete the GDI object without it first
408 being selected out of the DC. Cured by selecting the old DC object
409 first, then doing the assignment.
410 - Split up wxGaugeMSW, wxGauge95, wxSliderMSW, wxSlider95
411 - Various other bug fixes and additions.
415 - Major work on Dialog Editor (still plenty to go).
416 - Expanded documentation a bit more.
418 Alpha 10, May 7th 1998
419 ----------------------
423 - Added desiredWidth, desiredHeight parameters to wxBitmapHandler
424 and wxIcon functions so that you can specify what size of
425 icon should be loaded. Probably will remain a Windows-specific thing.
426 - wxStatusBar95 now works for MDI frames.
427 - Toolbars in MDI frames now behave normally. They still
428 require application-supplied positioning code though.
429 - Changed installation instructions, makefiles and batch files
430 for compiling with Gnu-Win32/Mingw32/EGCS. Also timercmn.cpp
431 change to support Mingw32/EGCS. Bison now used by default.
433 Alpha 9, April 27th 1998
434 ------------------------
438 - Cured bug in wxStatusBar95 that caused a crash if multiple
440 - Added Gnu-Win32 b19/Mingw32 support by changing resource
441 compilation and pragmas.
442 - Cured wxMenu bug introduced in alpha 8 - didn't respond to
443 commands because VZ changed the id setting in wxMenu::MSWCommand.
447 - Corrected some bugs, such as the wxModule compilation problem.
448 - Added Gnu-Win32 b19/Mingw32 support by changing resource
449 compilation and pragmas.

452 Alpha 8, April 17th 1998
453 ------------------------
457 - Added IsNull to wxGDIObject to check if the ref data is present or not.
458 - Added PNG handler and sample - doesn't work for 16-bit PNGs for
460 - Added wxJoystick class and event handling, and simple demo.
461 - Added simple wxWave class. Needs Stop() function.
462 - Added wxModule (module.h/module.cpp) to allow definition
463 of modules to be initialized and cleaned up on wxWindows
465 - Start of Mingw32 compatibility (see minimal and dialogs samples
466 makefile.m95 files, and install.txt).
467 - Note: Windows printing has stopped working... will investigate.
469 - Updated wxString: bug fixes, added wxArrayString, some
470 compatibility functions.
471 - Updated log.h/cpp, added wxApp::CreateLogTarget.
472 - file.h: new wxTempFile class.
473 - defs.h: added wxSB_SIZE_GRIP for wxStatusBar95
474 - statbr95: wxStatusBar95 control.
475 - registry.h/cpp: wxRegKey class for Win95 registry.
476 - listbox.cpp: corrected some bugs with owner-drawn listboxes.
477 - wxConfig and wxFileConfig classes.
481 - Added src/other/png, src/other/zlib directories.
483 - IMPORTANT: Changed 'no id' number from 0 to -1, in wxEVT_ macros.
484 Porters, please check particularly your wxTreeCtrl and wxListCtrl
486 - Added modules.h/cpp, config.cpp, fileconf.cpp, textfile.cpp/h.
488 Alpha 7, March 30th 1998
489 ------------------------
493 - Added tab classes, tab sample.
494 - Now can return FALSE from OnInit and windows will be
495 cleaned up properly before exit.
496 - Improved border handling so panels don't get borders
498 - Debugged MDI activation from Window menu.
499 - Changes to memory debug handling, including checking for
500 memory leaks on application exit - but see issues.txt for
502 - Added wxTaskBarIcon (taskbar.cpp/h, plus samples/taskbar)
503 to allow maintenance of an icon in the Windows 95 taskbar
505 - Got MFC sample working (MFC and wxWindows in the same
506 application), partly by tweaking ntwxwin.mak settings.
507 - Got DLL compilation working again (VC++).
508 - Changed wxProp/Dialog Editor filenames.
512 - Added tab classes, tab sample.
513 - Revised memory.cpp, memory.h slightly; memory.h now #defines
514 new to WXDEBUG_NEW in DEBUG mode. Windows implementation app.cpp
515 now checks for leaks on exit. Added memcheck sample.
516 See src/msw/issues.txt for more details.
517 - resource.h, resource.cpp changed to make wxDefaultResourceTable
518 a pointer. Now initialize resource system with
519 wxInitializeResourceSystem and wxCleanUpResourceSystem, to
520 allow better control of memory.
521 - wxString now derives from wxObject, to enable memory leak
523 - Added some #include fixes in various files, plus changed
524 float to long in wxToolBar files.
526 Alpha 6, March 10th 1998
527 ------------------------
531 - Found stack error bug - stopped unwanted OnIdle recursion.
532 - Removed bug in wxTreeCtrl::InsertItem I added in alpha 5.
533 - Changed exit behaviour in wxApp/wxFrame/wxDialog. Now will
534 check if the number of top-level windows is zero before
535 exiting. Also, wxApp::GetTopWindow will return either
536 m_topWindow or the first member of wxTopLevelWindows, so you
537 don't have to call wxApp::SetTopWindow.
538 - Added dynarray.h/dynarray.cpp (from Vadim).
539 - Added first cut at OLE drag and drop (from Vadim). dnd sample
540 added. Drop target only at this stage. See src/msw/ole/*.cpp,
541 wx/include/msw/ole/*.h. WIN32 only because of UUID usage.
542 Doesn't work with GnuWin32 - no appropriate headers e.g. for
544 Doesn't work with BC++ either - crashes on program startup.
545 - Added Vadim's owner-draw modifications - will probably remain
546 Windows-only. This enhances wxMenu, wxListBox. See ownerdrw sample.
547 - Added wxLB_OWNERDRAW for owner-draw listboxes.
548 - Vadim's wxCheckListBox derives from wxListBox. See checklst sample.
549 Doesn't entirely work for WIN16.
550 - Vadim has added wxMenuItem as a separate file menuitem.cpp. It
551 can also be used as an argument to wxMenu::Append, not just for
552 internal implementation.
553 - Some #ifdefs done for MINGW32 compilation (just alter OPTIONS
554 in makeg95.env, together with mingw32.bat). However, resource
555 binding is not working yet so most apps with dialogs crash.
559 - Added Vadim's dynarray.h, dynarray.cpp.
560 - Added Vadim's menuitem.cpp.
561 - Added Windows-specific wxCheckListBox,
562 owner-draw wxListBox, and drag-and-drop
563 (see docs/msw/changes.txt).
565 Alpha 5, 14th February 1998
566 --------------------------
570 - GENERIC AND MSW-SPECIFIC CODE NOW TREATED AS TWO SEPARATE
571 DISTRIBUTIONS. This change log will therefore now refer to
572 the Windows-specific code only. See docs/changes.txt for generic
574 - Removed Windows-specific reference counting system (GDI
575 resources were cleaned up in idle time) - minimal
576 advantages now we have a wxWin reference counting system.
577 - Added missing WXDLLEXPORT keywords so DLL compilation works
579 - Removed most warnings for GnuWin32 compilation.
580 - Added wxRegion/wxRegionIterator, but haven't yet used it in
585 - GENERIC AND MSW-SPECIFIC CODE NOW TREATED AS TWO SEPARATE
586 DISTRIBUTIONS. This change log will therefore now refer to
587 the generic code only. See docs/msw/changes.txt for Windows-specific
589 - Readmes, change logs and installation files now go in
590 platform-specific directories under docs, e.g. docs/msw,
592 - Added DECLARE_APP and IMPLEMENT_APP macros so wxApp object gets
593 created dynamically, not as a global object.
594 - Put wxColour into wx/msw/colour.h, src/msw/colour.cpp.
595 - Changed names of some include/wx/generic headers to be
596 consistent and to conform to gcc pragma conventions. Also
597 changed choicesg.cpp to choicdgg.cpp.
599 - Added gtk inclusion in include/wx headers.
600 - Added consistent file headings to source and headers.
601 - Removed lang.cpp, lang.h and references to wxSTR_... variables;
602 added a few references to wxTransString.
603 - Added operator to wxTransString that converts automatically
604 to wxString, so we can say e.g. wxMessageBox(wxTransString("Hello"), ...).
605 - samples/internat now works (minimally).
606 - Added wxMouseEvent::GetPosition and
607 wxMouseEvent::GetLogicalPosition, both returning wxPoints.
608 - Made wxSize and wxRect contain longs not ints.
609 - Cured some lemory leaks (thanks Vadim).
610 - Tidied up OnIdle and introduced RequestMore/MoreRequested so
611 will only keep processing OnIdle if it returns TRUE from
614 Alpha 4, 31st January 1998
615 --------------------------
619 - Changed wxDC functions to take longs instead of floats. GetSize now takes
620 integer pointers, plus a version that returns a wxSize.
621 - const keyword added to various wxDC functions.
622 - Under Windows, wxDC no longer has any knowledge of whether
623 an associated window is scrolled or not. Instead, the device
624 origin is set by wxScrolledWindow in wxScrolledWindow::PrepareDC.
625 - wxScrolledWindow applications can optionally override the virtual OnDraw
626 function instead of using the OnPaint event handler. The wxDC passed to
627 OnDraw will be translated by PrepareDC to reflect scrolling.
628 When drawing outside of OnDraw, must call PrepareDC explicitly.
629 - wxToolBarBase/wxToolBarSimple similarly changed to allow for
631 - Integrated wxPostScriptDC patches for 1.xx by Chris Breeze,
632 to help printing with multiple pages.
633 - IPC classes given base classes (wxConnectionBase etc.) which
634 define the API used by different implementations. DDE
635 implementation updated to use these base classes.
636 - wxHelpInstance now separated into wxHelpControllerBase (base
637 for all implementations), wxWinHelpController (uses standard
638 WinHelp), wxXLPHelPController (talks to wxHelp by DDE or
639 TCP/IP). There will be others eventually, such as
640 wxHTMLHelpController for Microsoft (and Netscape?) HTML Help.
641 - Added Vadim Zeitlin's wxString class plus
642 internationalization code (gettext simulation, wxLocale, etc.).
643 New files from Vadim:
649 src\common\string.cpp
653 No longer use GNU wxString files.
654 - Split off file-related functions into include\wx\filefn.h and
655 src\common\filefn.cpp.
656 - Borland C++ support (WIN32) for main library and
657 samples, using makefile.b32 files.
658 - Preparation done for allowing BC++ to compile wxWin as a DLL,
659 including changes to defs.h.
660 - wxIntPoint removed, wxPoint is now int, and wxRealPoint
662 - Added wxShowEvent (generated when window is being shown or
664 - Got minimal, docview, mdi samples working for 16-bit VC++ and
665 cured 16-bit problem with wxTextCtrl (removed global memory
667 - Updated GnuWin32 makefiles, checked minimal, mdi, docview samples.
669 Alpha 3, September 1997
670 -----------------------
674 - wxListCtrl, wxTreeCtrl, wxImageList classes done.
675 - Instigated new file hierarchy, split files and classes up more logically.
676 - PrologIO and some other utils now put into core library.
677 - Revamped print/preview classes, added wxPageSetupDialog.
678 - Started documentation.
680 Alpha 2, 30th April 1997
681 ------------------------
685 - EVT_... macros now have at least one argument, for conformance
686 with MetroWerks compiler.
687 - Added ids to .wxr file format.
688 - Got Dialog Editor compiled and running again but need
689 to extend functionality to be in line with new controls.
690 Added dialoged\test app to allow dynamic loading of .wxr files
691 for testing purposes.
692 - Rewrote wxBitmap to allow installable file type
694 - Rewrote wxBitmapButton, wxStaticBitmap to not use Fafa.
695 - Wrote most of wxTreeCtrl and sample (need wxImageList to implement it
697 - Added back wxRadioBox.
698 - Tidied up wx_main.cpp, wxApp class, putting PenWin code in
701 Alpha 1, 5th April 1997
702 -----------------------
706 At this point, the following has been achieved:
708 - A lot, but not all, of the code has been revamped for better
709 naming conventions, protection of data members, and use of
710 wxString instead of char *.
711 - Obsolete functionality deleted (e.g. default wxPanel layout,
712 old system event system) and code size reduced.
713 - Class hierarchy changed (see design doc) - base classes such
714 as wxbWindow now removed.
715 - No longer includes windows.h in wxWin headers, by using stand-in
716 Windows types where needed e.g. WXHWND.
718 - wxScrolledWindow, wxStatusBar and new MDI classes added.
719 MDI is now achived using separate classes, not window styles.
720 - wxSystemSettings added, and made use of to reflect standard
722 - SetButtonFont/SetLabelFont replaced by SetFont; font and colour
723 settings mucho rationalised.
724 - All windows are now subclassed with the same window proc to make
725 event handling far more consistent. Old internal wxWnd and derived
727 - API for controls revised, in particular addition of
728 wxValidator parameters and removal of labels for some controls.
729 - 1 validator written: see examples/validate.
730 - Event table system introduced (see most samples and
731 wx_event.cpp/ProcessEvent, wx_event.h). wxEvtHandler
732 made more flexible, with Push/PopEventHandler allowing a chain
734 - wxRadioBox removed - will be added back soon.
735 - Toolbar class hierarchy revised:
737 wxToolBarSimple (= old wxToolBar)
738 wxToolBar95 (= old wxButtonBar under Win95
739 wxToolBarMSW (= old wxButtonBar under WIN16/WIN32)
740 - Constraint system debugged somewhat (sizers now work properly).
741 - wxFileDialog, wxDirDialog added; other common dialogs now
742 have class equivalents. Generic colour and font dialogs
743 rewritten to not need obsolete panel layout.
744 - .wxr resource system partially reinstated, though needs
745 an integer ID for controls. Hopefully the resource system
746 will be replaced by something better and more efficient
748 - Device contexts no longer stored with window and accessed
749 with GetDC - use wxClientDC, wxPaintDC, wxWindowDC stack
751 - wxSlider uses trackbar class under Win95, and wxSL_LABELS flag
752 determines whether labels are shown. Other Win95-specific flags
753 introduced, e.g. for showing ticks.
754 - Styles introduced for dealing with 3D effects per window, for
755 any window: all Win95 3D effects supported, plus transparent windows.
756 - Major change to allow 3D effect support without CTL3D, under
758 - Bitmap versions of button and checkbox separated out into new
759 classes, but unimplemented as yet because I intend to remove
760 the need for Fafa - it apparently causes GPFs in Win95 OSR 2.
761 - utils/wxprop classes working (except maybe wxPropertyFormView)
762 in preparation for use in Dialog Editor.
763 - GNU-WIN32 compilation verified (a month or so ago).
