Vadim Zeitlin 35c35c235e Remove wxUSE_STL which is not really used any longer
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.

About

wxWidgets is a free and open source cross-platform C++ framework for writing advanced GUI applications using native controls.

wxWidgets Logo

wxWidgets allows you to write native-looking GUI applications for all the major desktop platforms and also helps with abstracting the differences in the non-GUI aspects between them. It is free for the use in both open source and commercial applications, comes with the full, easy to read and modify, source and extensive documentation and a collection of more than a hundred examples. You can learn more about wxWidgets at https://www.wxwidgets.org/ and read its documentation online at https://docs.wxwidgets.org/

Platforms

AppVeyor Unix (make) Unix (CMake) MSW (MSVC) MSW (gcc) Mac OSS-Fuzz

This version of wxWidgets supports the following primary platforms:

  • Windows 7, 8, 10 and 11 (32/64 bits).
  • Most Unix variants using the GTK+ toolkit (version 2.6 or newer or 3.x).
  • macOS (10.10 or newer) using Cocoa under both amd64 and ARM platforms.

All C++11 compilers are supported including but not limited to:

  • Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 or later (up to 2022).
  • g++ 4.8 or later (up to 12), including MinGW/MinGW-64/TDM under Windows.
  • Clang (up to 14).

Please use 3.2 branch if you must use wxWidgets with a C++98 compiler or support Windows XP.

Licence

wxWidgets licence is a modified version of LGPL explicitly allowing not distributing the sources of an application using the library even in the case of static linking.

Building

For building the library, please see platform-specific documentation under docs/<port> directory, e.g. here are the instructions for wxGTK, wxMSW and wxOSX.

If you're building the sources checked out from Git, and not from a released version, please see these additional Git-specific notes.

Further information

If you are looking for community support, you can get it from

Commercial support is also available.

Finally, keep in mind that wxWidgets is an open source project collaboratively developed by its users and your contributions to it are always welcome. Please check our guidelines if you'd like to do it.

Have fun!

The wxWidgets Team.
