The code using it will have to be updated: - * If the object was compared with wxNullXXX, use IsOk() method instead - * If valid object need to be compared, use IsSameAs() to reproduce the old - behaviour or change the code to avoid comparing bitmaps &c. -- wxFontData::GetColour() now returns a const colour. -- wxDC objects can't be created directly now (this never worked, now it doesn't - even compile). -- 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. -- 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. - - -Deprecated methods since 2.6.x and their replacements ------------------------------------------------------ - -- wxGetWorkingDirectory() deprecated in favour of wxGetCwd(). -- wxDC::BeginDrawing() and wxDC::EndDrawing() deprecated, don't use them. -- wxWindowBase::GetBestFittingSize --> wxWindowBase::GetEffectiveMinSize. -- wxWindowBase::SetBestFittingSize --> wxWindowBase::SetInitialSize. -- Seeking on a zip stream returned from wxFileSystem without using the new - wxFS_SEEKABLE flags is deprecated.
