Static Methods
--------------
In the distant past when SWIG was generating wrapper code for C++ static
methods it would create a standalone function named ClassName_MethodName for
it. When Python added support for static methods then SWIG was able to use
that to make a real static method named ClassName.MethodName, but it still
generated the standalone function named with the underscore, for
compatibility. That underscore verison of the static methods is now gone, and
you will get an AttributeError in existing code that is using them. To fix
the problem simply change the underscore to a dot, for example you should
change this::
c = wx.SystemSettings_GetColour(wx.SYS_COLOUR_MENUTEXT)
to this::
c = wx.SystemSettings.GetColour(wx.SYS_COLOUR_MENUTEXT)
You can also make this change in your existing code that is using pre-Phoenix
versions of wxPython, in order to help you prepare for the transition.

wx.Platform has been renamed to wx.Port, and wx.PlatformInfo has been
renamed to wx.PortInfo. The reason for this change is that wrappers
for a C++ class named wxPlatformInfo have been added, and would have
caused a name conflict if the old wx.PlatformInfo had not been
renamed.
