wxWidgets 2.8.8 changes

All:

• Fixed bug with parsing some dates in wxDateTime (Bob Pesner).

Благодаря стараниям Тюрюмова Алексея стала доступна 13я глава книги "Cross-Platform GUI Programming with wxWidgets", переведенная на русский.

This release adds support for 64-bits integers on those platforms that have native support for it such as, for example, Windows and GNU/Linux.

You can disable 64-bits integer support if you do not need (or do not want) it. The new version is compatible wih the past: if you do not need 64-bits integers you can still use this new version of the library without the need to rewrite your application.

To know more about the new feature read the following page:

При работе с потоками часто приходится делать кучу однотипных задач: создавать класс, производный от wxThread, реализовывать метод Entry() для этого класса, синхронизацию с главным потоком и т.д.

This release adds the 'copy-on-write' feature to the copy ctor and assignment operator of JSON value class.
Note that this new feature only affects the internal representation of JSON values and does not add new features in the class's interface.
Also note that for JSON value objects, COW is not as efficient as expected.

Today we’ll dig a little bit deeper into Document/View framework provided by wxWidgets and will see how to create a simple text editor using this framework.
We’ll take the source code from the previous article of this series and add some modifications. You will see below that modifications are rather simple and take almost no time.
First of all we have to make wxDocTemplate to handle desired file extensions (in our case it’s TXT).

A few weeks ago, working on TIFF viewer software, I realized that many developers, who use wxWidgets in their work, spend their time on implementing the functionality which already exists in wxWidgets library. Such tasks as loading/saving documents, edit/copy/paste functionality, separating the GUI from application’s logic, all of them can be performed in a far more simple way than people usually do.

wxWidgets находится в процессе работы над улучшением документации - мигрирации из текущей системы, основанной на LaTeX, в Doxygen (используя отдельный набор "интерфейсных" заголовков, вместо рабочих заголовков wxWidgets).

Сегодня вашему вниманию предлагается статья Cosm'а о том, как собрать и настроить среду разработки Code::Blocks под FreeBSD.

В этой статье я попытаюсь вам объяснить как ставить Code::Blocks в FreeBSD. Code::Blocks это кросплатформенная IDE построена с помощью wxWidgets. В моем случае установка проводилась на FreeBSD-7.0-Release-i386.

JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data-interchange format. It is easy for humans to read and write. It is easy for machines to parse and generate. It is based on a subset of the JavaScript Programming Language, Standard ECMA-262 3rd Edition - December 1999. JSON is a text format that is completely language independent but uses conventions that are familiar to programmers of the C-family of languages, including C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, Perl, Python, and many others. These properties make JSON an ideal data-interchange language.

This release adds support for Unicode.
