their overridden OnExecute() or override a more convenient OnExec() instead.
-Use of STL containers by default
---------------------------------
-
-wxWidgets uses STL containers for the implementation of wxVector, wxList,
-wxDList and wxStack by default since 2.9.2 release. While the STL-based
-versions are mostly compatible with the old ones, there are some differences:
-
- - wxList::compatibility_iterator must be used instead of wxList::Node* when
- iterating over the list contents. The compatibility_iterator class has the
- same semantics as a Node pointer but it is an object and not a pointer, so
- you need to write
-
- for ( wxWindowList::compatibility_iterator it = list.GetFirst();
- it;
- it = it->GetNext() )
- ...
-
- instead of the old
-
- for ( wxWindowList::Node *n = list.GetFirst(); n; n = n->GetNext() )
- ...
-
- - wxSortedArrayString and wxArrayString are separate classes now and the
- former doesn't derive from the latter. If you need to convert a sorted array
- to a normal one, you must copy all the elements. Alternatively, you may
- avoid the use of wxSortedArrayString by using a normal array and calling its
- Sort() method when needed.
-
- - WX_DEFINE_ARRAY_INT(bool) cannot be used because of the differences in
- std::vector<bool> specialization compared with the generic std::vector<>
- class. Please either use std::vector<bool> directly or use an integer array
- instead.
-
-Finally notice that you may set wxUSE_STD_CONTAINERS to 0 when compiling
-wxWidgets to use the non-STL containers.
-
-
wxODBC and contrib libraries removal
------------------------------------
wxAutomationInstance_SilentIfNone flag to prevent the error message if no
currently running instances of this object are available.
-- Signatures of wxDataViewCustomRenderer::Activate(), LeftClick() and
- StartDrag() virtual methods changed. You will need to change them in your
- derived renderer class too if you override them.
+- Signature of wxDataViewCustomRenderer::StartDrag() virtual method changed.
+ You will need to change it in your derived renderer class too if you override
+ it.
+
+- wxDataViewCustomRenderer::Activate() and LeftClick() were replaced with the
+ new ActivateCell() method. You will need to change it in your derived
+ renderer class accordingly.
- wxThread::Wait() and wxThread::Delete() used to dispatch the events while
waiting for the thread to exit in wxMSW. They still do it in default build
prevent the parent wxTopLevelWindow from interfering with the keyboard
handling of the window that captured the mouse.
+- wxDataViewCtrl::GetSelection() now returns invalid item in all ports (this
+ behaved differently in wxMSW and wxGTK/wxOSX before) if more than one item
+ is selected in a control with wxDV_MULTIPLE style.
+
Changes in behaviour which may result in compilation errors
-----------------------------------------------------------
- wxST_MARKUP doesn't exist any more, use wxControl::SetLabelMarkup() instead.
+- wxComboBox::IsEmpty(), which was previously available in some ports (but not
+ wxMSW), doesn't exist any more, use either IsListEmpty() or IsTextEmpty().
+
+- wxSingleChoiceDialog ctors and Create() now have 2 overloaded versions: one
+ taking void** client data and the deprecated one taking char**. This can
+ result in compilation errors due to an ambiguity between them if you pass
+ NULL as client data. To fix this, cast NULL explicitly to "void**".
+
Deprecated methods and their replacements
-----------------------------------------
- Second parameter of wxSlider::SetTickFreq(int n, int pos) is deprecated,
simply remove it from your code and use wxSlider::SetTickFreq(int n) as it
was never used anyhow.
+- wxSingleChoiceDialog ctor and Create() take "void**" client data pointer
+ instead of "char**". As the client data is typically untyped, you should
+ simply remove the casts to "char**" which you probably have in your code if
+ you use these functions.
+
