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
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.
+
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.
+
Deprecated methods and their replacements
-----------------------------------------
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.
+
