2 ............................
4 - WARNING: semantic of bags has changed!
5 An index assigned to an item will always keep that index unless
6 you insert an item before it.
10 WMSetInBag(bag, 10, "bla");
11 That code will put "bla" in index 10, instead of 0, as it used to be.
12 - fixed WMInsertInBag(). It ignored index, and always put the new item at end.
13 - added WMSaveUserDefaults().
14 - rewrote WMPopUpButton to use WMMenuItem
15 - added WMGetPopUpButtonMenuItem(WMPopUpButton *bPtr, int index)
16 - WMSortListItemsWithComparer(WMList *lPtr, (int)(f)(const void*, const void*))
17 - WMSortBrowserColumnWithComparer()
18 - fixed bug with sorting list items.
19 - fixed bug in handling keyboard input associated with selection and
21 - filepanel puts dirs on top of list (Wolff <wolff@cybercable.fr>)
22 - added WMReplaceInBag (Wolff <wolff@cybercable.fr>)
23 - added vertical views and multiple views in WMSplitView (Wolff <wolff@cybercable.fr>)
24 - changed values of parameter values of WMSplitViewConstrainProc()
25 - configurable default fontsize patch (Igor P. Roboul <igor@mordor.myip.org>)
26 - fixed a bug that crashed the programm when a popup button was scrolled.
27 - fixed a bug that caused incorrect drawing position of the popup indicator.
28 - fixed a bug that prevented selecting no item (-1) in a popup button.
29 - an assertion will be raised if the program tries to select a popup button
30 item that is beyond the total number of items present in the popup button.
31 - changed names of functions for SplitView to be consistent. Some contained
32 SubView while other Subview. Now all have Subview.
33 - fixed a bug in how input events were posted. Establishing 2 or more input
34 handlers for the same file descriptor, handling different (read/write/except)
35 events, caused wrong handlers to be called.
36 - Reimplemented the input and idle handlers with WMBag to avoid a functional
37 problem with them: inability to remove handlers next to the called one, from
38 the called handler itself. Trying to do this with the old version caused the
40 - changed wrealloc behaviour to be like this: new = wrealloc(old, new_size);
41 1. if old is NULL, return wmalloc(new_size).
42 2. if new_size is 0, call wfree(old), and return NULL.
43 3. if both old is a valid pointer and new_size>0, call realloc.
44 - added wstrerror(int errnum) to return the string associated with errnum.
45 - new wsyserrorwithcode(int error, const char* fmt, ...), similar to
46 wsyserror(), but printing the message for the specified error code.
47 - added 3 new classes: WMData, WMHost and WMConnection
48 - fixed a big memory leak in the color panel code (from Pascal Hofstee).
49 - added scrolling to tabview
51 changes since wmaker 0.61.0:
52 ............................
54 - added WMGetTextFieldFont()
55 - escape key in panels (craig nellist <crn@ozemail.com.au>)
56 - applied patch with fixes and enhancements to textfield
57 (Franck Wolff <wolff@cybercable.fr>)
58 - changed WMList to use WMBag internally, instead of a linked list
59 - replaced WMAddSortedListItem() with WMSortListItems()
60 - replaced WMAddSortedBrowserItem() with WMSortBrowserColumn()
62 changes since wmaker 0.60.0:
63 ............................
65 - added WMScreenWidth() and WMScreenHeight() functions.
66 - fixed some problems when compiling with non gcc compilers.
67 - added WMSetTextFieldFont()
68 - added WMSetButtonImageDefault() (craig nellist <crn@ozemail.com.au>)
69 - added WMBag (array/list)
70 - added libWUtil, a library that is a subset of libWINGs. It contains utils
71 that can be used in writing non-GUI programs. They include: hashes,
72 notifications, input/idle/timer handlers, user defaults database handling,
73 memory handling, application resource handling, etc.
74 All the non-GUI stuff from libWINGs is present.
75 Still linWINGs contain all this stuff so if you use libWINGs, you don't
76 need to link against libWUtil too.
77 One notable aspect of libWUtil is that it has a modified version of the
78 event handling function. It is named WHandleEvents() and will handle all
79 input/idle/timer events the app has.
80 If your app has a permanent input handler (as for example a socket a server
81 is listening on), then the main loop of the app can be:
85 but if there is no permanent input handler, you need to add some delay to
86 avoid a too high cpu load by your program:
91 A permanent input handler is one that is established when the program starts
92 and is present until the program exits.
93 One that is deleted and later reinstalled, is not considered permanent.
94 This difference is because if there is some input handler, the function will
95 block until some event appears, while if there is no input handler the
96 function will return almost immediately (after handling the timer/idle
99 Except the stuff declared in WUtil.h, the following functions declared in
100 WINGs.h are also present in libWUtil (you will need to #include <WINGs.h>
101 if you use one of these):
102 WMInitializeApplication(char *applicationName, int *argc, char **argv);
103 WMSetResourcePath(char *path);
104 WMGetApplicationName();
105 WMPathForResourceOfType(char *resource, char *ext);
106 WMAddTimerHandler(int milliseconds, WMCallback *callback, void *cdata);
107 WMDeleteTimerWithClientData(void *cdata);
108 WMDeleteTimerHandler(WMHandlerID handlerID);
109 WMAddIdleHandler(WMCallback *callback, void *cdata);
110 WMDeleteIdleHandler(WMHandlerID handlerID);
111 WMAddInputHandler(int fd, int condition, WMInputProc *proc,
113 WMDeleteInputHandler(WMHandlerID handlerID);
114 - added progress indicator widget
115 - Changed WMSetWindowUPosition() and WMSetWindowUSize() to
116 WMSetWindowInitialPosition() and WMSetWindowInitialSize() respectively,
117 for better naming conventions.
120 changes since wmaker 0.53.0:
121 ............................
124 - fixed a bug with setting initial path in browsers.
125 - added WMSetButtonImageDimsWhenDisabled()
126 - changed simple callback/notifications to delegate-like stuff. Affected
129 - WMSetBrowserFillProc() was replaced with WMSetBrowserDelegate
130 - WMBrowserDidScrollNotification was replaced with a delegate callback
132 WMTextField (not completed yet)
133 The notifications will still work, but using the delegate is preferable
135 How to convert old code to delegate callbacks:
136 1 - create a variable (static or dynamic) of the type of the
137 delegate for the widget type.
138 2 - Replace the notification observers with the equivalent
140 3 - Put pointers to the callbacks in the delegate variable.
142 Take a look in wfilepanel.c to see how it is used there.
144 - changed W_ViewProcedureTable to delegates
145 This will only affect user created widgets. If you have a custom
146 widget, you will need to update the callbacks and the declaration
147 of the W_ViewProcedureTable variable to be a W_ViewDelegate,
148 which is declared in WINGsP.h To setup the delegate, assign
149 the delegate variable to view->delegate.
152 Removed all the didChange notifications that were sent when the text
153 was changed programmatically. Only changes made by user interaction
154 will be notified now. If you need the old behaviour, send notifications
155 manually when you change the text.
158 - added WMGetColorPanelColor(WMColorPanel *panel)
159 - made WMGetUDStringForKey() to only return a reference to the string, not a
160 wstrdup()'ed copy. DO NOT FREE IT ANYMORE!

162 string drawing functions
