We didn't document using wxwin.m4 at all anywhere, so do it at least
minimally now (we still need a separate page documenting its full
functionality) and also show a simple makefile using wx-config.
Closes https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxWidgets/pull/2338
These paths are actually URLs and so the special URL characters must be
percent-encoded in them.
Document this and add a test checking that this is how it works.
Closes#19142.
Briefly explain how to check that wxWidgets is installed correctly.
This is again redundant with the information already present elsewhere,
but it seems worth repeating it here.
Currently this simply links to the existing port-specific installation
instructions, but this should provide a less confusing and more
prominent entry point than the existing topics.
It is surprising that "for (auto& c: s)" doesn't compile, so document
this and propose a replacement.
Do not document the fact that "for (auto c: s)" actually allows to
modify the string via "c" (which is still wxUniCharRef) as this is
probably just going to confuse people more than help.
This will allow reusing the same strings in other places.
Also use this as opportunity to add "msw" as the (preferred) synonym for
"win" for general consistency.
This requires refactoring NewCloseButton() in order to extract
CreateCloseButton() from it, as XRC relies on being able to use two-step
creation which was previously impossible for this kind of buttons.
CreateCloseButton() is rather unusual, as it has to be declared in the
derived, platform-specific class, in order to be able to call its
Create(), but is defined only once in common, platform-independent,
code. However the only alternative seems to be to have a static
function, e.g. InitCloseButton(), which wouldn't be very pretty neither.

Since OS X 10.12 it has been named macOS so it makes sense
to reference it in documentation as such, even when it
sometimes refers to older versions which were called (Mac) OS X.
The code in the example showing how to create a new event class
confusingly used several names for the event type.
Fix this and also prefix the name of the new event type with "EVT_" to
match wxWidgets convention for naming event types.
Also explicitly mark the parts that are not needed if only Bind() is
used for event handling.
Closes https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxWidgets/pull/1586
This is still completely undiscoverable, but slightly better than only
mentioning this in a Stack Overflow answer referencing a comment in the
bug tracker.
Closes#9659.
At least mention wxGraphicsContext and Bind() instead of only speaking
of wxDC and event tables.
Also mention sizers.
Do _not_ mention obsolete and deprecated wxList and friends.
Notably mention that showing modal dialogs won't work in this case.
Also link to this explanation from wxListCtrl documentation as
wxEVT_LIST_ITEM_SELECTED is one of the perhaps less expected cases in
which this problem arises.
See #9973.
Explain how these methods actually work, remove a very (from wx 1.x
days?) outdated reference to wxPanel always calling Layout() and mention
the special case of wxTopLevelWindow in the overview too.
Add a new flag wxXRC_USE_ENVVARS for wxXmlResourceFlags that triggers a
call to wxExpandEnvVars() for bitmap, icon and animation paths.
This flag is not set by default to avoid silently changing the behaviour
of existing applications.
Closes https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxWidgets/pull/1445
Several wxEVT_COMMAND_xxx constants were replaced with alternative (shorter) names in ce7fe42e84 and since 2.9.5 they are actually deprecated and shouldn't be mentioned in the documentation.
No real changes, just clean up sources by removing trailing spaces from
all the non-generated files.
This should hopefully avoid future commits mixing significant changes
with insignificant whitespace ones.
Add wxGridCellDateRenderer and wxGridCellDateRenderer which can be used
for the grid cells containing only dates, without times.
Also add wxGrid::SetColFormatDate() convenience function.
Refactor wxGridCellDateTimeRenderer slightly to reuse its code.
Closes https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxWidgets/pull/1101
Prompting for user name and password is a common task.
At least windows provides these dialogs native but this
is just a generic implementation for now.
Remove whitespace preceding @li tags which prevented doxygen from
formatting the text as a list. Add a period after the last item in the
lists where it was missing.
Closes https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxWidgets/pull/897
