now called much earlier/later than before; please move any exiting code
from there to wxApp::OnInit()/OnExit()
- also, OnExit() is not called if OnInit() fails
+- finally the program exit code is OnRun() return value, not OnExit() one
- wxTheApp can't be assigned to any longer, use wxApp::SetInstance() instead
- wxFileType::GetIcon() returns wxIconLocation, not wxIcon
- wxColourDatabase is not a wxList any more, use AddColour to add new colours
- wxChoice and wxCombobox now handle their size in the same way as in all the
other ports under MSW, new code is actually correct but different from weird
stuff they were doing before so the behaviour of your programs might change
+- wxTaskBarIcon objects must now be destroyed before the application can exit.
+ Previously, the application terminated if there were no top level windows;
+ now it terminates if there are no top level windows or taskbar icons left.
+
+wxTaskBarIcon must be explicitly destroyed now, otherwise the application
+ won't exit even though there are no top level windows
