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.
+
Changes in behaviour which may result in compilation errors
-----------------------------------------------------------
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.
+
