-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Note: This file contains the list of changes since wxWidgets 3.x, please see
      docs/changes_30.txt for the changes in the previous versions.


INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES SINCE 3.0.x:
=================================

Changes in behaviour not resulting in compilation errors
--------------------------------------------------------

- wxRibbonButtonBar::DeleteButton() now deletes and not just removes the button.
- Default interpolation mode in wxGDIPlusContext under MSW is now
  wxINTERPOLATION_DEFAULT and not wxINTERPOLATION_GOOD as in 3.0 for
  consistency with OS X, call SetInterpolationQuality() explicitly if needed.

- Calling wxYield() in wxMSW now generates wxEVT_IDLE events, just as in the
  other ports, but this can be unexpected for the applications not expecting
  their idle handlers to be called from inside wxYield().

- Creating wxBitmap with 0 width or height now always fails in all ports
  (it used to succeed in wxMSW).

- Using invalid flags with wxBoxSizer or wxGridSizer items now triggers asserts
  when done from the code or error messages when done in XRC.

- wxWS_EX_VALIDATE_RECURSIVELY is now the default behaviour, i.e. calling
  Validate() or TransferData{From,To}Window() will now also call the same
  function for all children.

- wxOSX/Carbon port doesn't exist any more, wxOSX/Cocoa will be silently used
  instead even if configure --with-osx_carbon option is used.

- The pure virtual function wxAppTrait::GetToolkitVersion() now has a parameter
  for getting the micro version. If you override GetToolkitVersion() you need
  to add this new third parameter.

- wxWindow::CreateAccessible() doesn't return accessible object by default
  anymore and GetOrCreateAccessible() may return NULL, indicating that native
  system-provided accessibility should be used.

Changes in behaviour which may result in build errors
-----------------------------------------------------

- "webview" library is not included in `wx-config --libs` output any more, you
  need to request it explicitly, e.g. `wx-config --libs std,webview`.

- wxMSW now requires linking with shlwapi.lib and version.lib. This is done
  automatically in most cases, but if you use a static build of the library
  with a non-MSVC compiler such as MinGW and do not use wx-config, then you
  will need to add these libraries to your make or project files yourself.

- WXWIN_OS_DESCRIPTION doesn't exist any longer, use wxGetOsDescription().

- Never documented and not always available private wxGetClipboardData()
  function now doesn't exist at all any more in wxMSW, use wxClipboard instead.

- wxGraphicsRenderer::CreatePen() now takes wxGraphicsPenInfo and not a wxPen.
  This only affects code defining its own custom renderers, code just using
  wxGraphicsContext::CreatePen() continues to compile and work as before.


3.1.1: (not released yet)
----------------------------

INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES SINCE 3.1.0:

- wxListCtrl::HasCheckboxes() and EnableCheckboxes(), which were added in
  3.1.0, have been renamed to HasCheckBoxes and EnableCheckBoxes respectively
  for consistency with wxCheckBox naming.

- The enum value wxTASKBAR_JUMP_LIST_DESTIONATION, which was added in 3.1.0,
  contains a typo and has been renamed to wxTASKBAR_JUMP_LIST_DESTINATION.
  
- wxZipOutputStream will now automatically convert filenames to UTF-8, if the
  wxMBConv used when calling the constructor supports UTF-8 encoding.
