wxString, in many cases code using it won't compile any more and NULL
should be replaced with an empty string.
+- Functions returning "const wxChar *" were changed as well. Mostly they now
+ return wxString which is then transparently convertible to either "const char
+ *" or "const wchar_t *" but in some cases, notably wxDateTime::ParseXXX(),
+ the returned string could be NULL and so a separate helper class is used. If
+ you obtain compilation errors because of this, you can always correct them by
+ explicitly assigning the function return value to a variable of wanted type.
+ A slightly more intrusive but better solution is to use ParseXXX() version
+ with wxString::const_iterator output parameter which simply returns bool to
+ indicate the parsing success.
- Some structure fields which used to be of type "const wxChar *" (such as
wxCmdLineEntryDesc::shortName, longName and description fields) are now of
sizes of the sizer items to be in the same proportion as the items
proportions to return to the old behaviour.
+- Interpretation of font height in pixels parameter has changed in wxFont
+ ctor and SetPixelSize() in wxMSW: it is now used as character height and not
+ the total cell height. If you previously used negative height to explicitly
+ request character height matching, you may now change your code to use
+ positive value (passing negative height still works but is undocumented and
+ deprecated). If you used positive height before you should retest your code
+ to check if the changes correspond to your expectations. And if you do need
+ the old behaviour please contact us at wx-dev to let us know about it!
+
- 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
GetSizeAvailableForScrollTarget() method, please see its documentation for
more details.
+- Processing of pending events now requires a running event loop.
+ Thus initialization code (e.g. showing a dialog) previously done in wxApp::OnRun()
+ 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).
+
+- wxTextCtrl::LoadFile no longer sends a text update event.
+
+- wxXmlDocument::Save()'s indentstep argument's interpretation was fixed
+ to match the documentation: it now really is the number of spaces in
+ indentation instead of being its double. Its default value was changed
+ accordingly, to 2.
+
+- wxLOCALE_CONV_ENCODING flag has no effect now, catalogs are converted
+ regardless of whether the flag was specified or not. This only affects
+ legacy ANSI builds.
+
Changes in behaviour which may result in compilation errors
-----------------------------------------------------------
- wxEVT_GRID_CELL_CHANGE event renamed to wxEVT_GRID_CELL_CHANGED and shouldn't
be vetoed any more, use the new wxEVT_GRID_CELL_CHANGING event to do it.
-- Now wxWidgets at startup in debug builds checks if all wxEvent-derived classes
- correctly implement the Clone() function, logging a warning if they don't.
- A correct implementation for MyCustomEventClass::Clone() is simply:
- virtual wxEvent *Clone() const { return new MyCustomEventClass(*this); }
+- wxListCtrlCompare function used with wxListCtrl::SortItems() must now declare
+ its third parameter as wxIntPtr and not long (this allows passing pointers
+ to it under 64 bit platforms too).
- Global wxPendingEvents and wxPendingEventsLocker objects were removed.
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.
+
+- wxList::Member() now returns book and not a pointer/iterator. This shouldn't
+ require any changes as it was always meant to be used for checking for the
+ presence of an element in the list only. If you used it as Find(), simple do
+ use Find() instead.
+
+- wxLongLongFmtSpec is now a normal and not wide string so you will need to
+ change expressions of the form wxT("%") wxLongLongFmtSpec wxT("x") to
+ just "%" wxLongLongFmtSpec "x", i.e. simply remove wxT() from the strings you
+ concatenate with it.
+
Deprecated methods and their replacements
-----------------------------------------
were deprecated in favour of wxFileName methods. See docs for more info.
- wxEvtHandler::TryValidator/Parent() are deprecated, override the new and
documented TryBefore/After() methods if you used to override these ones.
+- wxGetMultipleChoices() is deprecated, use wxGetSelectedChoices() which has
+ the same signature but returns -1 and not 0 if the dialog was cancelled.
+- building the windows which are placed inside wxStaticBoxes as siblings of the
+ wxStaticBox is still allowed but it's deprecated as it gives some problems
+ on some ports (e.g. wxGTK).
+ You should now create windows placed inside a wxStaticBox as children of
+ the static box itself.
+- wxMouseState::{Left,Middle,Right}Down() were renamed to XXXIsDown() for
+ consistency with wxMouseEvent and the old names were deprecated.
+- wxFont::SetNoAntiAliasing() was deprecated, it never really worked in most
+ ports and was always marked as "experimental" API. It will be replaced with
+ wxDC-level anti-aliasing control in the future.
+- wxValidator::SetBellOnError() incorrectly interpreted its argument (it
+ disabled the bell when it was true) and was replaced by SuppressBellOnError()
+ with more expected semantics.
+- wxPORTRAIT and wxLANDSCAPE are now elements of wxPrintOrientation enum and
+ wxPrintData::SetOrientation(int) takes wxPrintOrientation and not int.
Major new features in this release
- New propgrid library containing wxPropertyGrid and related classes.
+- new ribbon library for advanced toolbars.
+
