GetSizeAvailableForScrollTarget() method, please see its documentation for
more details.
+- Processing of pending events now requires a running event loop.
+ Thus initialization code (e.g. showing a dialog) previously done in wxApp::OnRun()
+ or equivalent function should now be done into wxApp::OnEventLoopEnter().
+ See wxApp::OnEventLoopEnter() and wxApp::OnEventLoopExit() docs for more info.
+
Changes in behaviour which may result in compilation errors
-----------------------------------------------------------
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() (and other wxEvtHandler functions inherited by wxWindow)
+- wxWindow::ProcessEvent() (and other wxEvtHandler methods inherited by wxWindow)
has been made protected to prevent wrongly using it instead of correct
GetEventHandler()->ProcessEvent().
New ProcessWindowEvent() was added for convenience.
A correct implementation for MyCustomEventClass::Clone() is simply:
virtual wxEvent *Clone() const { return new MyCustomEventClass(*this); }
+- Global wxPendingEvents and wxPendingEventsLocker objects were removed.
+ You may use wxEventLoopBase::SuspendProcessingOfPendingEvents instead of
+ locking wxPendingEventsLocker now.
+
Deprecated methods and their replacements

it with SetDeviceClippingRegion() if this was the correct thing to do in your
code.
