wxWidgets v3.1.4 Release Notes

Release Date: 2020-07-22 // over 3 years ago
  • ๐Ÿ†“ Welcome to wxWidgets, a free and open source cross-platform C++ framework for writing advanced GUI applications using native controls.

    ๐Ÿš€ wxWidgets 3.1.4 is the latest release in the 3.1 development branch. This release is a "development" one as it makes (very few) incompatible API changes compared to 3.0 and does not guarantee the ABI stability, unlike the 3.0.x series. It is not inherently more buggy or less stable than the "stable" releases and you're encouraged to use it, including in production. If you're already using 3.0, upgrading shouldn't require any special effort, so please try it out.

    Please see README for more information about this release and the change log for more details of the changes in it.

    ๐Ÿ“š Source Files and Documentation

    If you intend to build wxWidgets from sources (which is recommended), please do NOT download the files using the "Source code" links just above, which are automatically generated by GitHub and don't contain the submodules sources which are necessary for building wxWidgets.

    ๐Ÿš€ Instead, download one of wxWidgets-3.1.4.zip or wxWidgets-3.1.4.7z, for much smaller size, for Microsoft Windows systems or wxWidgets-3.1.4.tar.bz2 for Unix ones, including macOS. These archives have exactly the same contents, but use the line endings appropriate for the corresponding platform.

    ๐Ÿ“š In addition, we provide archives containing the documentation in either HTML or Microsoft CHM formats. Notice that the documentation is also available online.

    Finally, Microsoft Windows users may download Setup.exe file containing both sources and documentation, however please note that this file does not contain any binaries, please see below for those.

    To verify your download please use the following SHA-1 checksums:

    Binaries

    We provide pre-built binary files for the following compilers:

    • Microsoft Visual C++ compiler versions 9.0, 10.0, 11.0, 12.0, 14.0, 14.1 and 14.2 (corresponding to marketing product names of Microsoft Visual Studio 2008, 2010, 2012, 2013, 2015, 2017 and 2019 respectively).
    • MinGW-w64 versions 7.3 and 8.1 (32-bit binaries use SJLJ exceptions, 64-bit ones use SEH, and all binaries use Win32 threads).
    • TDM-GCC 9.2.0.

    For Developers

    For developing applications with wxWidgets you need to download the compiler-independent wxWidgets-3.1.4_Headers.7z file and one of wxMSW-3.1.4-vcXXX_Dev.7z or wxMSW-3.1.4_gccXXX_Dev.7z files depending on your compiler, its version and the target architecture (x86 if not specified or x64).

    ๐Ÿš€ Unpack both files into the same directory so that include and lib directories are at the same level after unpacking. You should be able to compile and link applications using wxWidgets in both debug and release modes but the debug symbols are provided only for debug libraries in this archive, see below for the release build debug symbols.

    Note that if you're setting up a new project using these binaries, the simplest
    way to do it is to use the provided wxwidgets.props file: for this, open the
    View|Property Manager menu item in the IDE, select "Add Existing Property
    Sheet..." from the project context menu and browse to this file in the file
    open dialog.

    For End Users

    End users may download one of wxMSW-3.1.4_vcXXX_ReleaseDLL.7z or wxMSW-3.1.4_gccXXX_ReleaseDLL.7z files to get just the DLLs required for running the applications using wxWidgets.

    For Debugging

    • Microsoft Visual C++ users: Files wxMSW-3.1.4_vcXXX_ReleasePDB.7z contain the debug symbols for the release build of the DLLs. Download them if you want to debug your own applications in release build or if you want to get meaningful information from mini-dumps retrieved from your users machines.
    • ๐Ÿš€ MinGW-TDM users: Currently the debug symbols are not available for the release build of the DLLs (only the debug versions of the DLLs contains the debug symbols).

Previous changes from v3.1.2

  • ๐Ÿ†“ Welcome to wxWidgets, a free and open source cross-platform C++ framework for writing advanced GUI applications using native controls.

    ๐Ÿš€ wxWidgets 3.1.2 is the latest release in the 3.1 development branch. This release is a "development" one as it makes (very few) incompatible API changes compared to 3.0 and does not guarantee the ABI stability, unlike the 3.0.x series. It is not inherently more buggy or less stable than the "stable" releases and you're encouraged to use it, including in production. If you're already using 3.0, upgrading shouldn't require any special effort, so please try it out.

    Please see README for more information about this release and the change log for the details of the changes in it.

    ๐Ÿ“š Source Files and Documentation

    If you intend to build wxWidgets from sources (which is recommended), please do NOT download the files using the "Source code" links just above, which are automatically generated by GitHub and don't contain the submodules sources which are necessary for building wxWidgets.

    ๐Ÿš€ Instead, download one of wxWidgets-3.1.2.zip or wxWidgets-3.1.2.7z, for much smaller size, for Microsoft Windows systems or wxWidgets-3.1.2.tar.bz2 for Unix ones, including macOS. These archives have exactly the same contents, but use the line endings appropriate for the corresponding platform.

    ๐Ÿ“š In addition, we provide archives containing the documentation in either HTML or Microsoft CHM formats. Notice that the documentation is also available online.

    Finally, Microsoft Windows users may download Setup.exe file containing both sources and documentation, however please note that this file does not contain any binaries, please see below for those.

    To verify your download please use the following SHA-1 checksums:

    • 0๏ธโƒฃ TDM-GCC version 5.1 and MinGW-w64 versions 7.3 and 8.1 (with the default SJLJ exceptions propagation method, using C++11).

    For Developers

    For developing applications with wxWidgets you need to download the compiler-independent wxWidgets-3.1.2_Headers.7z file and one of wxMSW-3.1.2-vcXXX_Dev.7z or wxMSW-3.1.2_gccXXX_Dev.7z files depending on your compiler, its version and the target architecture (x86 if not specified or x64).
