- June 15, 2014 -- The wxWidgets team is pleased to announce a
- major new release of our open source framework for the development
- of native cross-platform applications in C++.
- wxWidgets 3.0.1 is a stable bug fix release in 3.0 branch and is
- available at
- https://sourceforge.net/downloads/wxwindows/3.0.1/
- and at our FTP mirror at
- ftp://ftp.wxwidgets.org/pub/3.0.1/
- Please choose the archive format suitable for your platform, i.e. 7z
- or ZIP for Windows platforms and tar.bz2 for the Unix systems
- including OS X (all archives contain sources for all wxWidgets ports
- but they use different line endings) and follow the instructions in
- readme.txt file for installing it. Notice that if you decide to use
- the Windows installer (.exe file) you still need to build wxWidgets
- as only sources, not binaries, are installed.
- We also provide the pre-built versions of wxMSW libraries for the
- selected compilers at
- https://sourceforge.net/downloads/wxwindows/3.0.1/binaries/
- Please see the README file there for the descriptions of the
- individual files.
- This release is perfectly compatible with 3.0.0 at both the source
- (API) and binary (ABI) level and upgrading to it is strongly
- recommended for all users of wxWidgets 3.0.0 as it contains more than
- a hundred important bug fixes since it.
- The most important user-visible changes are:
- * In all ports:
- - wxHTML displays tables much faster now.
- - Double clicking wxGrid columns doesn't make them too small any more.
- - Fix bugs when dragging columns in wxGrid with hidden columns.
- - Loading ICO files with PNG data is now supported.
- * In wxGTK:
- - Mouse wheel scrolling in wxListCtrl works again.
- - wxStaticBoxSizer contents is not truncated any more.
- - AUI panels may now be re-docked after floating them.
- * In wxMSW:
- - wxBitmapComboBox works again and doesn't just remain blank.
- - Checkboxes in wxDataViewCtrl work again too now.
- - wxCheckListBox appears correctly when using large fonts.
- * In wxOSX:
- - Cancelling choice selection in wxDataViewCtrl doesn't crash any more.
- - ShowModal() doesn't use quite as much CPU now.
- There are also many other bug fixes, including many improvements to
- alpha transparency handling in different places (mostly in wxMSW, but
- also in wxGTK) and resource/memory leak fixes in all ports.
- Finally, this release includes Visual Studio 2012 and 2013 projects for
- building wxWidgets, in addition to the project files for the previous
- versions already provided in 3.0.0 release.
- Please see the changes.txt file in the "docs" subdirectory of
- wxWidgets distribution or also available online at
- https://sourceforge.net/projects/wxwindows/files/3.0.1/changes.txt
- for more details and please read the "INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES" section
- in its beginning for a brief description of changes if you are
- upgrading from wxWidgets 2.8. For more details, please see
- http://docs.wxwidgets.org/3.0.0/overview_changes_since28.html
- We recommend that you upgrade to wxWidgets 3.0.1 if you already use
- wxWidgets 3.0.0, the upgrade is completely transparent and doesn't
- require any changes in the existing code. If you are still using
- wxWidgets 2.8 or earlier, please consider updating to wxWidgets 3.0
- to profit from all the new functionality.
- We hope that you will enjoy using the new release!
- Vadim Zeitlin, on behalf of wxWidgets development team.
