 INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES SINCE 2.2.x
 ================================
 

-All (GUI):
+wxBase:

 
 

-- wxGridCellAttrProvider class API changed, you will need to update your code
-  if you derived any classes from it
+- wxArray<T>::Remove(size_t) has been removed to fix compilation problems
+  under 64 bit architectures, please replace it with RemoveAt() in your
+  code.

 
 

-wxMSW:
+- wxArray<T> macros have been changed to fix runtime problems under 64 bit
+  architectures and as a side effect of this WX_DEFINE_ARRAY() can only be
+  used now for the pointer types, WX_DEFINE_ARRAY_INT should be used for the
+  arrays containing non-pointers.
+
+- wxObject::CopyObject() and Clone() methods were removed because they
+  simply don't make sense for all objects
+
+- wxEvent now has a pure virtual Clone() method which must be implemented
+  by all derived classes, if you have user-defined event classes please
+  add "wxEvent *Clone() const { return new MyEvent(*this); }" line to them
+
+All (GUI):

 
 - the event type constants are not constants any more but are dynamically
   allocated during run-time which means that they can't be used as case labels

+- wxDialog does not derive from wxPanel any longer - if you were using it in
+  your code, please update it. The quick fix for the most cases is to replace
+  the occurences of wxPanel with wxWindow.
+
+- wxYES_NO is now wxYES | wxNO and the manifest values of both wxYES and wxNO
+  have changed (to fix some unfortunate clashes), please check your code to
+  ensure that no tests for wxYES or wxNO are broken: for example, the following
+  will *NOT* work any longer:
+
+        if ( flags & wxYES_NO )
+                ... do something ...
+        if ( flags & wxYES )
+                ... do something else ...
+
+- wxGLCanvas now derives directly from wxWindow, not wxScrolledWindow
+
+- wxGridCellAttrProvider class API changed, you will need to update your code
+  if you derived any classes from it
+
+- wxImage::ComputeHistogram()'s signature changed to 
+  unsigned long ComputeHistogram(wxImageHistogram&) const
+
+- wxEvtHandler cannot be copied/assigned any longer - this never worked but
+  now it results in compile-time error instead of run-time crashes
+
+wxMSW:
+
+- build system changed: setup.h is not a static file in include/wx any more
+  but is created as part of the build process under lib/<toolkit>/wx/include
+  where <toolkit> is of the form (msw|univ)[dll][u][d]. You'll need to update
+  the include path in your make/project files appropriately. Furthermore,
+  xpm.lib is no longer used by wxMSW, it was superseded by the wxXPMDecoder
+  class. You'll need to remove all references to xpm.lib from your 
+  make/project files.
+

 - child frames appear in the taskbar by default now, use wxFRAME_NO_TASKBAR
   style to avoid it, wxFRAME_FLOAT_ON_PARENT style is now obsolete and has no
   effect

+- all overloads of wxDC::SetClippingRegion() combine the given region with the
+  previously selected one instead of replacing it
+
+- wxGetHomeDir() uses HOME environment variable and if it is set will not
+  return the programs directory any longer but its value (this function has
+  never been meant to return the programs directory anyhow)
+
+Unix ports:
+
+- You should use `wx-config --cxxflags` in your makefiles instead of
+  `wx-config --cflags` for compiling C++ files. CXXFLAGS contains CFLAGS
+  and the compiler flags for C++ files only, CFLAGS should still be used
+  to compile pure C files.

 - more fixes to wxMBConv classes. Conversion to and from wchar_t now works with
   glibc 2.2 as well as with glibc 2.1. Unix version now checks for iconv()'s
   capabilities at runtime instead of in the configure script.
