Announcing wxPython 4.0.0a3
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/wxPython/4.0.0a3
|
|
|
|
Fixed a few cases where the GIL was not acquired before building tuples of
|
|
values. The problems associated with this (hangs or crashes) were sporadic and
|
|
seemingly random, and did not appear until there was a background thread that
|
|
was very busy. Running under a debug build of Python revealed the problem
|
|
almost immediately. Yay Python!
|
|
|
|
Return an integer value from wx.DC.GetHandle instead of a wrapped voidptr
|
|
object, similar to how it is done for wx.Window.GetHandle.
|
|
|
|
Make wx.TreeItemID hashable, with meaningful hash value and equality
|
|
operators, so it can be used as a dictionary key in Py3.
|
|
|
|
Fixed crash in wx.grid.GridTable.GetAttr, and potentially other cases of
|
|
classes derived from wx.RefCounter.
|
|
|
|
Add ShowPage and IsRunning methods to wx.adv.Wizard.
|
|
|
|
Fixed various GTK specific bugs and other cleanup in wx.lib.agw.aui.
|
|
|
|
Updated to SIP 4.19.2
|
|
|
|
Restored builders for Python 3.4 to the buildbot.
|
|
|
|
Restore the wrappers for GetPaperSize and SetPaperSize to wx.PrintData.
|
|
|
|
Fix crashing problem when a wx.TreeItemId was compared with None.
|
|
|
|
Fix for missing checkbox images in CheckListCtrlMixin on Linux and OSX.
|
|
|
|
Fix another crashing problem in propgrid, and a few other propgrid issues too.
|
|
|
|
The release version of the documentation can now be found at
|
|
https://docs.wxPython.org/ The documentation created during the
|
|
snapshot builds is still located at https://wxPython.org/Phoenix/docs/html/

What is wxPython?
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
wxPython is a cross-platform GUI toolkit for the Python programming
|
|
language. It allows Python programmers to create programs with a
|
|
robust, highly functional graphical user interface, simply and
|
|
easily. It is implemented as a set of Python extension modules that
|
|
wrap the GUI components of the popular wxWidgets cross platform
|
|
library, which is written in C++. Supported platforms are Microsoft
|
|
Windows, Mac OS X and macOS, and Linux or other unix-like systems with
|
|
GTK2 or GTK3 libraries. In most cases the native widgets are used on
|
|
each platform to provide a 100% native look and feel for the
|
|
application.

What is wxPython Phoenix?
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
|
|
wxPython's Project Phoenix is a new from-the-ground-up implementation
|
|
of wxPython, created with the intent of making wxPython “better,
|
|
stronger, faster than he was before.” In other words, this new
|
|
implementation is focused on improving speed, maintainability and
|
|
extensibility of wxPython, as well as removing most of the cruft that
|
|
had accumulated over the long life of Classic wxPython.
|
|
|
|
The project has been in development off and on, mostly behind the
|
|
scenes, for many years. For the past few years automated snapshot
|
|
builds have been available for those adventurous enough to try it, and
|
|
many people eventually started using the snapshots in their projects,
|
|
even for production releases. While there are still some things on
|
|
the periphery that need to be completed, the core of the new wxPython
|
|
extension modules which wrap the wxWidgets code has been stable for a
|
|
long time now.
|
|
|
|
Due to some things being cleaned up, reorganized, simplified and
|
|
dehackified wxPython Phoenix is not completely backwards compatible
|
|
with wxPython Classic. This is intended. In general, however, the API
|
|
differences tend to be minor and some applications can use Phoenix
|
|
with slight, or even no modifications. In some other cases the
|
|
correct way to do things was also available in Classic and it's only
|
|
the wrong way that has been removed from Phoenix. For more
|
|
information there is a Migration Guide document available at:
|
|
https://wxpython.org/Phoenix/docs/html/MigrationGuide.html

|
|
Python-specific additions and customizations, and docs for the wx.lib

package, is located at:
