need to review them as wxDC doesn't have any virtual methods any longer and
uses delegation instead of inheritance to present different behaviours.
+- wxWindow::ProcessEvent() has been made protected to prevent wrongly using it

- Return type of wxString::operator[] and wxString::iterator::operator* is no
longer wxChar (i.e. char or wchar_t), but wxUniChar. This is not a problem
in vast majority of cases because of conversion operators, but it can break
derives from wxObject; instead of using wxDynamicCast with wxVariantData you
can use the macro wxDynamicCastVariantData with the same arguments.

have been changed to accept "wxBitmapType bitmaptype", please use enum
wxBitmapType in your code.
+- wxGridCellEditor::EndEdit() signature has changed and it was split in two
+ functions, one still called EndEdit() and ApplyEdit(). See the documentation

+- wxEVT_GRID_CELL_CHANGE event renamed to wxEVT_GRID_CELL_CHANGED and shouldn't

Deprecated methods and their replacements
-----------------------------------------
respectively a wxBrushStyle and a wxPenStyle value instead of a plain "int style";
use the new wxBrush/wxPen style names (wxBRUSHSTYLE_XXX and wxPENSTYLE_XXX) instead
of the old deprecated wxXXX styles (which however are still available).
+- EVT_GRID_CELL_CHANGE was deprecated, use EVT_GRID_CELL_CHANGED instead if you
+ don't veto the event in its handler and EVT_GRID_CELL_CHANGING if you do.
- EVT_CALENDAR_DAY event has been deprecated, use EVT_CALENDAR_SEL_CHANGED.
- EVT_CALENDAR_MONTH and EVT_CALENDAR_YEAR events are deprecated,
use EVT_CALENDAR_PAGE_CHANGED which replaces both of them.

depending on what is optimal for the target platform.
