This time it works on SMP machines +without barfing and is also still compatible with Python debuggers. + +Added some patches from library contributors. + + + + +2.3.2 ----- Added EVT_HELP, EVT_HELP_RANGE, EVT_DETAILED_HELP, EVT_DETAILED_HELP_RANGE, EVT_CONTEXT_MENU, wxHelpEvent, wxContextMenuEvent, wxContextHelp, wxContextHelpButton, wxTipWindow, and a demo to show them in action. +Deprecated PyShell and PyShellWindow, added a snapshot of PyCrust (see +http://sourceforge.net/projects/pycrust/. ) + +Added the new virtual list capabilities to wxListCtrl. + +Added a wxSTC style editor from Riaan Booysen to the sample apps. + +Added XRCed to the wxPython Tools directory, contributed by Roman +Rolinsky. + +Added a new "constructor" to most of the window classes that calls the +default C++ contructor, (the one with no parameters) and also added the +coresponding Create(...) method. This allows you to do a 2-step +creation of windows which is sometimes required for doing things such +as setting extended style flags before the window is created, or for +passing the object to the XRC resource system to be created from the +resource. The name of the new "constructor" is the original name of +the class with a "Pre" in it. For example, wxPreWindow, wxPreFrame, +etc. + +Updated to version 1.40 of Scintilla and updated wxStyledTextCtrl +accordingly. While doing this update I dropped the wxLB_SORT style +from the wxListBox created for the AutoComplete functionality. This +means that you will have to sort the keyword lists yourself, but you +are free to do case sensitive or case insensitive sorts and set the +wxSTC flag accordingly. + +Updated wxColumnSorterMixin to also be able to place sort icons on the +column headers, and updated the wxListCtrl demo to show it off by +using wxColumnSorterMixin. + +Added wxGenBitmapTextButton, TablePrint, etc. contribs from Lorne White. + +Added wxNativeFontInfo and wxFontMapper. + +Added pySketch to the samples. + +Significantly changed how the Python interpreter lock and thread state +are managed, which should fix the problem of running on a +multi-processor machine. + +Added wxPyLog so log targets can be created in Python to handle log +messages however is wished. See demo/Main.py for an example. + +Added wxFindReplaceDialog. + +The second phase of OOR is implemented for wxEvtHandler, wxSizer, +wxShape and derived classes. This means that functions and methods +that return an object derived from wxEvtHandler that was originally +created in Python, will return the original Python object (if it still +exists) instead of letting SWIG wrap a new shadow object around the +original C++ pointer. + +Added some optimization methods to wxDC: GetBoundingBox, DrawLineList, +DrawPointList. + +Added a set of sophisticated Error Dialogs from Chris Fama. + +Added wxRightTextCtrl from Josu Oyanguren to wxPython.lib for aligning +text in a wxTextCtrl to the right side. + +Added wxURLDataObject and an example showing drag and drop of URLs to +and from web browsers. It's still not 100% bullet-proof for all types +of browsers, but it works for the majority of cases with the popular +browsers on Windows. On wxGTK it seems that only Netscape 4.x works, +if anybody has any suggestions about this please bring it up on the +wx-dev list. + +Added wxStopWatch. + +Added wxMimeTypesManager and wxFileType. + +Passing None for the handler parameter to one of the EVT_** functions +will now Disconnect the event. + +Added wxPopupWindow and wxPopupTransientWindow. + +Added wxFileHistory. + +Added wxDynamicSashWindow, which allows you to endlessly split windows +by dragging a little tab next to the scrollbars. Added a demo to show +this and also the ability of multiple wxStyledTextCtrls to share the +same document. + +Added wxEditableListBox gizmo. +Updated wxEditor with lots of enhancements from Steve Howell and Adam +Feuer. +Added the "SplitTree gizmos" which are a collection of classes that +were designed to operate together and provide a tree control with +additional columns for each item. The classes are +wxRemotelyScrolledTreeCtrl, wxTreeCompanionWindow, +wxThinSplitterWindow, and wxSplitterScrolledWindow, some of which may +also be useful by themselves. +Added wxDllWidget from Vaclav Slavik which allows wx widgets derived +from wxWindow to be loaded from a C++ .dll (or .so) and be used in a +wxPython program, without the widget having to be SWIGged first. The +visible API of the widget is limited to wxWindow methods plus a +SendCommand method, but it is still quite powerful. See +wxPython/contrib/dllwidget and wxPython/demo/dllwidget for more +details.
