One of them, wxMac, exists in two versions: Classic and Carbon. The Classic version is the only one to work on Mac OS version 8. The Carbon version may be built either as CFM or Mach-O (binary format, like ELF) and the former may run under OS 9 while the latter only runs under OS X. Finally, there is a new Cocoa port which can only be used under OS X. To summarize: @li If you want to test for all Mac platforms, classic and OS X, you should test both @c __WXMAC__ and @c __WXCOCOA__. @li If you want to test for any GUI Mac port under OS X, use @c __WXOSX__. @li If you want to test for any port under Mac OS X, including, for example, wxGTK and also wxBase, use @c __DARWIN__ (see below). The convention is to use the @c __WX prefix for these symbols, although this has not always been followed. @section page_cppconst_os Operating systems @beginDefList @itemdef{__APPLE__, any Mac OS version} @itemdef{__AIX__, AIX} @itemdef{__BSD__, Any *BSD system} @itemdef{__CYGWIN__, Cygwin: Unix on Win32} @itemdef{__DARWIN__, Mac OS X using the BSD Unix C library (as opposed to using the Metrowerks MSL C/C++ library)} @itemdef{__DATA_GENERAL__, DG-UX} @itemdef{__DOS_GENERAL__, DOS (used with wxMGL only)} @itemdef{__FREEBSD__, FreeBSD} @itemdef{__HPUX__, HP-UX (Unix)} @itemdef{__GNU__, GNU Hurd} @itemdef{__LINUX__, Linux} @itemdef{__MACH__, Mach-O Architecture (Mac OS X only builds)} @itemdef{__OSF__, OSF/1} @itemdef{__PALMOS__, PalmOS} @itemdef{__SGI__, IRIX} @itemdef{__SOLARIS__, Solaris} @itemdef{__SUN__, Any Sun} @itemdef{__SUNOS__, Sun OS} @itemdef{__SVR4__, SystemV R4} @itemdef{__SYSV__, SystemV generic} @itemdef{__ULTRIX__, Ultrix} @itemdef{__UNIX__, any Unix} @itemdef{__UNIX_LIKE__, Unix, BeOS or VMS} @itemdef{__VMS__, VMS} @itemdef{__WINDOWS__, any Windows} @itemdef{__WINE__, Wine} @endDefList @section page_cppconst_cpu Hardware architectures (CPU) Note that not all of these symbols are always defined, it depends on the compiler used. @beginDefList @itemdef{__ALPHA__, DEC Alpha architecture} @itemdef{__INTEL__, Intel i386 or compatible} @itemdef{__IA64__, Intel 64 bit architecture} @itemdef{__POWERPC__, Motorola Power PC} @endDefList @section page_cppconst_hardware Hardware type @beginDefList @itemdef{__SMARTPHONE__, Generic mobile devices with phone buttons and a small display} @itemdef{__PDA__, Personal digital assistant, usually with touch screen} @itemdef{__HANDHELD__, Small but powerful computer, usually with a keyboard} @itemdef{__POCKETPC__, Microsoft-powered PocketPC devices with touch-screen} @itemdef{__WINCE_STANDARDSDK__, Microsoft-powered Windows CE devices, for generic Windows CE applications} @itemdef{__WINCE_NET__, Microsoft-powered Windows CE .NET devices (_WIN32_WCE is 400 or greater)} @itemdef{WIN32_PLATFORM_WFSP, Microsoft-powered smartphone} @endDefList @section page_cppconst_compiler Compilers @beginDefList @itemdef{__BORLANDC__, Borland C++.

To make it possible to check if this is the case, the library predefines the symbols in the form @c wxHAS_FEATURE. Unlike @c wxUSE_FEATURE symbols which are defined by the library user (directly in @c setup.h or by running configure script) and which must be always defined as either 0 or 1, the @c wxHAS symbols are only defined if the corresponding feature is available and not defined at all otherwise. Currently the following symbols exist: @beginDefList @itemdef{wxHAS_ATOMIC_OPS, Defined if wxAtomicInc() and wxAtomicDec() functions have an efficient (CPU-specific) implementation. Notice that the functions themselves are always available but can be prohibitively slow to use when implemented in a generic way, using a critical section.} @itemdef{wxHAS_LARGE_FILES, Defined if wxFile supports files more than 4GB in size.} @itemdef{wxHAS_LARGE_FFILES, Defined if wxFFile supports files more than 4GB in size.} @itemdef{wxHAS_POWER_EVENTS, Defined if wxPowerEvent are ever generated on the current platform.} @itemdef{wxHAS_RADIO_MENU_ITEMS, Defined if the current port supports radio menu items (see wxMenu::AppendRadioItem).} @itemdef{wxHAS_RAW_BITMAP, Defined if direct access to bitmap data using the classes in @c wx/rawbmp.h is supported.} @itemdef{wxHAS_RAW_KEY_CODES, Defined if raw key codes (see wxKeyEvent::GetRawKeyCode are supported.} @itemdef{wxHAS_REGEX_ADVANCED, Defined if advanced syntax is available in wxRegEx.} @itemdef{wxHAS_TASK_BAR_ICON, Defined if wxTaskBarIcon is available on the current platform.} @endDefList @section page_cppconst_msvc_setup_h Libraries selection for MSVC setup.h Microsoft Visual C++ users may use the special @c wx/setup.h file for this compiler in @c include/msvc subdirectory. This file implicitly links in all the wxWidgets libraries using MSVC-specific pragmas which usually is much more convenient than manually specifying the libraries list in all of the project configurations. However sometimes linking with all the libraries is not desirable, for example because some of them were not built and this is where the symbols in this section can be helpful: defining them allows to not link with the corresponding library. The following symbols are honoured: - wxNO_ADV_LIB - wxNO_AUI_LIB - wxNO_HTML_LIB - wxNO_MEDIA_LIB - wxNO_NET_LIB - wxNO_QA_LIB - wxNO_RICHTEXT_LIB - wxNO_XML_LIB - wxNO_REGEX_LIB - wxNO_EXPAT_LIB - wxNO_JPEG_LIB - wxNO_PNG_LIB - wxNO_TIFF_LIB - wxNO_ZLIB_LIB Notice that the base library is always included and the core is always included for the GUI applications (i.e. those which don't define @c wxUSE_GUI as 0). @section page_cppconst_miscellaneous Miscellaneous @beginDefList @itemdef{__WXWINDOWS__, always defined in wxWidgets applications, see also wxCHECK_VERSION} @itemdef{__WXDEBUG__, defined in debug mode, undefined in release mode} @itemdef{wxUSE_XXX, if defined as 1, feature XXX is active, see the @ref page_wxusedef (the symbols of this form are always defined, use @if_ and not @ifdef_ to test for them)} @itemdef{WX_PRECOMP, is defined if precompiled headers (PCH) are in use. In this case, @c wx/wxprec.h includes @c wx/wx.h which, in turn, includes a number of wxWidgets headers thus making it unnecessary to include them explicitly. However if this is not defined, you do need to include them and so the usual idiom which allows to support both cases is to first include @c wx/wxprec.h} and then, inside @ifndef_ WX_PRECOMP, individual headers you need.} @itemdef{_UNICODE and UNICODE, both are defined if wxUSE_UNICODE is set to @c 1} @itemdef{wxUSE_GUI, this particular feature test macro is defined to 1 when compiling or using the library with the GUI features activated, if it is defined as @c 0, only wxBase is available.} @itemdef{wxUSE_BASE, only used by wxWidgets internally (defined as 1 when building wxBase code, either as a standalone library or as part of the monolithic wxWidgets library, defined as 0 when building GUI library only)} @itemdef{wxNO_RTTI, is defined if the compiler RTTI support has been switched off} @itemdef{wxNO_EXCEPTIONS, is defined if the compiler support for C++ exceptions has been switched off} @itemdef{wxNO_THREADS, if this macro is defined, the compilation options don't include compiler flags needed for multithreaded code generation. This implies that wxUSE_THREADS is 0 and also that other (non-wx-based) threading packages cannot be used neither.} @itemdef{WXMAKINGDLL_XXX, used internally and defined when building the library @c XXX as a DLL; when a monolithic wxWidgets build is used only a single @c WXMAKINGDLL symbol is defined} @itemdef{WXUSINGDLL, defined when compiling code which uses wxWidgets as a DLL/shared library} @itemdef{WXBUILDING, defined when building wxWidgets itself, whether as a static or shared library} @endDefList */
