- Default location of wxFileConfig files has changed under Windows, you will
need to update your code if you access these files directly.
+- Return value of wxStandardPaths::GetUserDataDir() and similar functions has
+ changed if the vendor name is defined as it now includes it by default under
+ Windows and OS X. Call wxStandardPaths::UseAppInfo(AppInfo_AppName) to
+ revert to behaviour compatible with 2.8 version.
+
- wxWindow::IsEnabled() now returns false if a window parent (and not
necessarily the window itself) is disabled, new function IsThisEnabled()
with the same behaviour as old IsEnabled() was added.
proportions to return to the old behaviour.
- wxWindow::Freeze/Thaw() are not virtual any more, if you overrode them in
- your code you need to override DoFreeze/Thaw() instead now.
+ your code you need to override DoFreeze/DoThaw() instead now.
- wxCalendarCtrl has native implementation in wxGTK, but it has less features
than the generic one. The native implementation is used by default, but you
or equivalent function should now be done into wxApp::OnEventLoopEnter().
See wxApp::OnEventLoopEnter() and wxApp::OnEventLoopExit() docs for more info.
+- wxLoadFileSelector() now allows the user to select existing files only.
+
+- Erase background events are now not generated at all when background style is
+ changed. See the updated wxWindow::SetBackgroundStyle() description in the
+ manual for more details.
+
+- wxTreeCtrl::GetSelection now asserts if the tree has the wxTR_MULTIPLE style.
+ Instead use GetSelections() for multiple items; or if you want only the
+ single item last touched, the new wxTreeCtrl::GetFocusedItem.
+
+- Custom log targets should be updated to override wxLog::DoLogRecord() method
+ instead of DoLog() or DoLogString() and must be updated if they call the base
+ class versions of these functions as this won't work any more; please see the
+ documentation of wxLog for more information.
+
+- Confusing wxGridSizer(int cols, int vgap = 0, int hgap = 0) ctor which was
+ easy to mistake for wxGridSizer(int rows, int cols) overload was removed, you
+ will need to specify both vertical and horizontal gap if you want to use this
+ overload or specify both rows and columns and the gap otherwise. Use of the
+ new constructors taking wxSize for the gap argument is preferred. The same
+ applies to wxFlexGridSizer as well.
+
+- wxBoxSizer::AddSpacer(x) now adds space in the direction of the sizer only
+ and not in both this and the orthogonal directions. This behaviour is what
+ most of the people expect but if you really relied on this overload adding
+ space in both directions you should change your code to use AddSpacer(x, x).
+
Changes in behaviour which may result in compilation errors
-----------------------------------------------------------
You may use wxEventLoopBase::SuspendProcessingOfPendingEvents instead of
locking wxPendingEventsLocker now.
+- wxBitmapButton::GetBitmapXXX() overloads returning non-const wxBitmap
+ references have been removed, modifying the returned bitmaps never worked and
+ now results in compile-time error.
+
+- wxLogXXX() are now macros, not functions. Because of this calling them with
+ an explicit scope resolution operator ("::wxLogError()") doesn't work any
+ longer, just remove it. Also notice that using them inside an "if" statement
+ without enclosing parentheses results in warnings from g++ with -Wparentheses,
+ add parentheses around the if statement body to work around it.
+
