wxCode - wxWidgets components / News: Recent posts

Version 0.9.1 of the wxCode component wxPdfDocument is available for download from http://sourceforge.net/projects/wxcode. The new version 0.9.1 is compatible with wxWidgets version 2.8.11 and version 2.9.1. It should be usable with all wxWidgets 2.8.x versions.

It has been verified that wxPdfDocument functions properly on the wxMac platform. There is a small issue for wxWidgets 2.9.1 if 2.8.x compatibility was not enabled, because then method MacGetATSUFontID used by wxPdfDocument isn't accessible. This issue has been fixed in the wxWidgets trunk.... read more

Version 0.9.0 of the wxCode component wxPdfDocument is available for download from http://sourceforge.net/projects/wxcode. The new version 0.9.0 is compatible with wxWidgets version 2.8.11 and version 2.9.1. Compatibility with older wxWidgets versions is not guaranteed.

This is the first release of wxPdfDocument containing a PDF drawing context (wxPdfDC) - although not all methods are implemented yet. There are implementations for wxWidgets 2.8.x and 2.9.x; the matching implementation is selected automatically at compile time. Please report your experiences with wxPdfDC to the author of wxPdfDocument, be it bug reports, contributions or feature requests.... read more

We are pleased to announce that after a great delay wxCurl 1.0 is out.
Here is the changelog:

ChangeLog
---------

1.0
- first release of wxCurl since it was moved to wxCode
- new bakefile-based build system which supports all possible wxWidgets build modes
and allows an easy-build of libCURL also on Windows keeping a copy in thirdparty\libcurl
- removed #pragma interface for GCC which are not used anymore
- revised the code to make it compile against wxWidgets 2.9
- now EVT_CURL_* macros also take an ID which allows the same event handler to process
events coming from different wxCurlBase sessions
- now wxCurlBase do not use anymore a boolean parameter to register if progress/begin/end
events should be sent but rather the wxCURL_SEND_PROGRESS/BEGIN/END_EVENTS symbols which
allow users to write more readable code
- doxyfied the documentation of wxCURL
- splitted wxCurlProgressEvent into wxCurlDownloadEvent and wxCurlUploadEvent classes
and added more getters GUI-oriented (e.g. GetHumanReadableSpeed, GetEstimatedTime, etc)
- added a wxCurlDownloadThread and a wxCurlUploadThread to ease non-blocking downloads/uploads
- added a wxCurlSizeQueryThread to query file sizes before downloading them
- added a wxCurlDownloadDialog and wxCurlUploadDialog for easier downloading/uploading
- added a wxCurlConnectionSettings[Panel|Dialog] to present stock connection options to the user... read more
