wxString is always based on std::[w]string since 2c0c727f49 (Remove wx
own wxStringImpl implementation, 2022-11-16) and all containers use
standard containers by default too now -- and there is a separate
wxUSE_STD_CONTAINERS for this anyhow.
The only remaining use of wxUSE_STL was as the default value for
wxUSE_STD_STRING_CONV_IN_WXSTRING option, but it's not really needed
for this neither, and this option can just be set to 0 by default.
Also add wxUSE_CHAR_CONV_IN_WXSTRING which can now be set to 0 too to
disable all unwanted implicit conversions (even "safe" ones, to wide
strings, in addition to the unsafe ones to narrow strings that could be
already disabled with wxUSE_UNSAFE_WXSTRING_CONV) to allow people who
don't want to have any implicit conversions at all to do it.
Keep --enable-stl configure option for compatibility, but warn if it is
used to tell people that it is not needed any longer.
This was accidentally broken in fb4f0b590c (Remove wxGTK1 port and GPE
support, 2022-10-16): even though the commit message explicitly said
that __WXGTK20__ was still defined, it actually wasn't any more.
Fix this now by just doing it always when using wxGTK. This allows to
drop WXGTK2 variable entirely, as it's not used any longer and we don't
need to set it.
Closes#23444.
This is mostly, even if not completely, compatible with the previous
default build using wxUSE_STD_CONTAINERS=0, so try enabling this by
default again. Hopefully it should work better now than the last time we
tried it, see 01871bf642 (Add wxUSE_STD_CONTAINERS and turn it on by
default., 2011-03-30) and the subsequent 7311debd0d (Don't use the
standard containers by default., 2011-05-13).
See #22718.
Use the key code corresponding to the key in the US keyboard layout for
the key down/up events even when not actually using US layout, as this
is much more useful than simply returning 0 as was done before.
It also is compatible with the behaviour of the other ports.
Closes#17643.
Closes#23379.
See #23410.
This option seems to be obsolete and was only ever needed for classic
MinGW32 which is not even supported any more.
This basically reverts a0b9e27fd4 (Applied Fabian Wenzel's patches to
add -mthreads for threads to work in MinGW., 2002-08-28).
See #23314.
Closes#23316.
This architecture doesn't exist and is not supported since a very long
time, so stop testing for it and defining __ALPHA__ which was never used
anyhow.
It may still be supported for wxGTK, but we don't need to do anything
special for it, so we don't need to define __POWERPC__, which was never
used anyhow, neither.
The change of 7899850496 (Do use host-specific pkg-config when
cross-compiling, 2022-12-15) should have been done in addition to the
previous logic instead of replacing it, as it has resulted in not using
pkg-config any more when targeting Linux systems, which wasn't the
intention.
So re-apply the changes of d6ddfe87e1 (Disable build system pkg-config
when cross-compiling to non-Linux, 2022-11-30) to handle cross-compiling
to Linux specially.
This makes the logic even uglier than before, but it still seems like
the most pragmatic solution and the original intention was always to do
this and not the wrongly simplified version that was actually applied.
See #22886, #23037, #23171.
Drop disabled by default and pretty useless memory tracing code and all
the overlapping and poorly documented build options related to it.
Remove memory.cpp entirely and update all the make/project files, but
preserve the now completely trivial wx/memory.h for compatibility and
also keep including wx/string.h from wx/object.h as it seems like a lot
of existing code actually depends on this, even if it should not.
Replace the options in the propgrid sample with a couple of other
debug-related options that were not used before to avoid leaving the
"Debugging Section" completely empty.
This re-enables the use of $host-pkg-config after it was disabled again
by d6ddfe87e1 (Disable build system pkg-config when cross-compiling to
non-Linux, 2022-11-30).
Closes#23037.
This restores a modified form of the original commit 893ebbab0c (Disable
use of build system pkg-config files when cross-compiling, 2020-12-13),
thus mostly reverting 6dbf59f34f (Revert "Disable use of build system
pkg-config files when cross-compiling", 2022-10-25) and now disables the
use of build system pkg-config files only when cross-compiling for
non-Linux hosts.
This seems like the best behaviour by default because it avoids
unexpected problems when cross-compiling for MSW or iOS where build
system .pc files should never be used, but still uses these files, if
they are available, when cross-compiling for other Linux systems.
This is Linux-specific currently but should probably be extended to
other Unix systems too. In any case, the default behaviour can always be
overridden by setting PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR manually.
See #22886.
The changes of fb4f0b590c (Remove wxGTK1 port and GPE support,
2022-10-16) accidentally disabled several checks that were supposed to
be done when using wxGTK, notably for GTK print library.
This was due to WXGTK2 not being defined any longer and is fixed now by
replacing the tests for it with tests for wxUSE_GTK (as WXGTK2 used to
mean "any GTK version other than 1", and not "GTK version 2").
Closes#22994.
Assume they are always 1 now, there is no good reason to ever set them
to 0 any more.
Note that we still keep wxUSE_STD_IOSTREAM for now, but we can drop
wxUSE_STD_DEFAULT as it's not worth having it just for this single
option (previously it was used as the default value for 3 of them).
Always use thread_local as we can rely on compiler TLS support working
under Windows 7 and later.
There are some known problems in MinGW thread local variable support,
but they only affect (obsolete) 32-bit builds and will hopefully be
fixed in this compiler soon.
See #22917.
Some configure could fail with errors like the following:
conftest.c:56:33: error: implicitly declaring library function 'exit'
with type 'void (int) __attribute__((noreturn))'
[-Werror,-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
See https://trac.macports.org/ticket/61672Closes#22946.
Disabling Unicode support is not supported any longer.
Also report Unicode encoding used by wxString at the end of running
configure, this is more useful than just saying "wchar_t", as it's
platform-dependent.
Don't use compiler-specific __thread and use the standard keyword
instead.
Keep the existing TLS-related macros for compatibility, but remove our
custom implementation of them, so that they're always trivial now.
This reverts commit 893ebbab0c because it
breaks cross-compiling using target-specific pkg-config installed on the
main system, which is a perfectly legitimate use case.
To avoid the original problem fixed by that commit, PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR
needs to be set manually before running configure when using host
pkg-config -- but not when using target pkg-config.
Closes#22886.
Add new --enable-taskbarbutton option and define wxUSE_TASKBARBUTTON as
1 by default instead of always defining it as 0, as was the case before.
Closes#22900.
Use Catch2 public header instead of using internal Catch v1 headers: we
can do this now because Catch2 supports (albeit in a rather ugly way)
being used with PCH.
Remove the port files and references to it from the common headers and
elsewhere.
Also remove GPE (GNOME PDA Environment) support as libgpewidget is
unmaintained since 2006 or so and has never been really used.
Use __WXGTK__ to test for any version of wxGTK now. Still define
__WXGTK20__ for compatibility, but always define it now and don't test
for it in the library code.
This port hasn't been updated for ages and is not used by anybody any
longer, so remove its code to facilitate maintenance.
Also remove references to this port from the documentation and most of
the other places (VMS-specific descrip.vms files still check for it
because it's not clear how to update them all), including configure.
Regenerate the latter and rebake all makefiles.
Finally document that this port is not available any longer.
Always use std::unordered_{map,set} when we use them at all, don't
bother with checking for their availability and with tr1 or even older
alternatives.
It doesn't seem right that the system zlib (installed by e.g. MacPorts)
can be picked up by configure even when --disable-sys-libs is specified,
so disable its use under Mac, as libcurl is optional there.
Still use the system libcurl under Linux in the same case, however, as
it's required to have wxWebRequest at all there and dependency on it is
not really a problem in practice.

This POSIX function should be preferred to Linux/BSD-specific statfs()
if it's available (as should always be the case nowadays).

Run install_name_tool on wxrc binary again: this used to be done and is
still needed, but was broken in 30915c6163 (Make wxrc independent from
GUI support, 2021-07-07) which moved the code appending the line calling
install_name_tool for wxrc to change-install-name script before this
script creation, meaning that it was simply overwritten later.
See #22620.
