to work with "wxChar *" before use "void *" now (some int parameters were
also changed to size_t). While wxIPC_TEXT can still be used to transfer 7
bit text, the new wxIPC_UTF8TEXT format is used for transferring wxStrings.
+ Also notice that connection classes should change the parameter types of
+ their overridden OnExecute() or override a more convenient OnExec() instead.
wxODBC and contrib libraries removal
- wxWindow::Freeze/Thaw() are not virtual any more, if you overrode them in
your code you need to override DoFreeze/Thaw() 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
+ can still use wxGenericCalendarCtrl instead of wxCalendarCtrl in your code if
+ you need the extra features.
