================================ -- wxFontData::GetColour() now returns a const colour. -- wxDC objects can't be created directly now (this never worked, now it doesn't - even compile). -- For all wxInputStreams, Eof() becomes true after an attempt has been made - to read _past_ the end of file. -- wxCHECK family of macros now must be followed by a semicolon. -- wxMBConv::cMB2WC() and cWC2MB() take size of the input buffer and return - length of the converted string in all cases now. -- wxHtmlWindow::OnCellClicked() now returns bool. -- wxHtmlCell::OnMouseClick() was deprecated and replaced with - wxHtmlCell::ProcessMouseClick(); old code overriding OnMouseClick() will - continue to work with WXWIN_COMPATIBILITY_2_6, but should be rewritten to - use ProcessMouseClick(). -- wxHtmlCell::GetCursor() was deprecated and replaced with - wxHtmlCell::GetMouseCursor(); old code overriding GetCursor() will - continue to work with WXWIN_COMPATIBILITY_2_6, but should be rewritten to - use GetMouseCursor(). -- wxHtmlCell::AdjustPagebreak() signature has changed, update your code if you - override it. -- wxFontEnumerator::GetFacenames() and GetEncodings() now return arrays and - not pointers to arrays. -- wxStaticBoxSizer now deletes the associated wxStaticBox when it is deleted. -- Windows calling CaptureMouse() are now required to handle - the wxEVT_MOUSE_CAPTURE_LOST event. -- SetDefaultItem() method was moved from wxPanel to wxTopLevelWindow -- wxDialog::OnOK/OnCancel() don't exist any more, use SetAffirmative/EscapeId() -- wxPathList doesn't derive from (deprecated) wxStringList any more -- wxGLContext class has no 1:1 coupling to a wxGLCanvas class any more. - As a consequence, the class interface changed largely. - Code updates, if any are required at all, are easy to accomplish though. -- wxDialog::CreateButtonSizer() may return NULL now, please see the manual -- wxBufferedDC doesn't inherit from wxMemoryDC any more (but directly from wxDC) - - -Deprecated methods since 2.6.x and their replacements ------------------------------------------------------ - -- wxGetWorkingDirectory() deprecated in favour of wxGetCwd(). -- wxDC::BeginDrawing() and wxDC::EndDrawing() deprecated, just don't use them. - - -Major changes in 2.7 release ----------------------------- +Changes in behaviour not resulting in compilation errors, please read this!
