+- wxFileName::DirExists() checks if the path of the file is a directory, not
+ if the whole name is a directory.
+- wxDialog::CreateButtonSizer() may return NULL now, please see the manual.
+- wxStaticBoxSizer now deletes the associated wxStaticBox when it is deleted.
+- Windows calling CaptureMouse() are now required to handle the
+ wxEVT_MOUSE_CAPTURE_LOST event and not call ReleaseMouse() in this case.
+
+
+Changes in behaviour which may result in compilation errors
+-----------------------------------------------------------
+
+- wxFontData::GetColour() now returns a const colour.
+- wxDC objects can't be created directly now (this never worked, now it doesn't
+ even compile).
+- wxCHECK family of macros now must be followed by a semicolon.
+- wxMBConv::cMB2WC() and cWC2MB() take size of the input buffer and return
+ length of the converted string in all cases now.
+- wxHtmlWindow::OnCellClicked() now returns bool.
+- wxHtmlCell::OnMouseClick() was deprecated and replaced with
+ wxHtmlCell::ProcessMouseClick(); old code overriding OnMouseClick() will
+ continue to work with WXWIN_COMPATIBILITY_2_6, but should be rewritten to
+ use ProcessMouseClick().
+- wxHtmlCell::GetCursor() was deprecated and replaced with
+ wxHtmlCell::GetMouseCursor(); old code overriding GetCursor() will
+ continue to work with WXWIN_COMPATIBILITY_2_6, but should be rewritten to
+ use GetMouseCursor().
+- wxHtmlCell::AdjustPagebreak() signature has changed, update your code if you
+ override it.
+- wxFontEnumerator::GetFacenames() and GetEncodings() now return arrays and
+ not pointers to arrays.
+- SetDefaultItem() method was moved from wxPanel to wxTopLevelWindow
+- wxDialog::OnOK/OnCancel() don't exist any more, use SetAffirmative/EscapeId()
+- wxPathList doesn't derive from (deprecated) wxStringList any more
+- wxGLContext class has no 1:1 coupling to a wxGLCanvas class any more.
+ As a consequence, the class interface changed largely. Code updates, if
+ any are required at all, are easy to accomplish though.
+
+
+Deprecated methods since 2.6.x and their replacements
+-----------------------------------------------------
+
+- wxGetWorkingDirectory() deprecated in favour of wxGetCwd().
+- wxDC::BeginDrawing() and wxDC::EndDrawing() deprecated, don't use them.
