Own Id: OTP-15230 Aux Id: PR-1860

Own Id: OTP-15027
wx crashes in otp 20.1 if empty binaries was sent down as arguments.
Own Id: OTP-14688

Add wxWindow:dragAcceptFiles/2 and wxDropFilesEvent to support simple drag and drop from file browser.
Own Id: OTP-13933
Increased the stacksize for the wx thread. The default stacksize on Windows is 1MB which is not enough if the user created many nested dialogs.
Own Id: OTP-13816
Fixed bugs which could cause called functions to be invoked twice or not at all when callbacks where invoked at the same time.
Own Id: OTP-13491
Changed atom 'boolean' fields in #wxMouseState{} to 'boolean()'.

Own Id: OTP-12374

Own Id: OTP-12259
Distribute
Own Id: OTP-12348

Own Id: OTP-12153

Fix wxSL_LABELS compatibility between wxWidgets-2.8 and wxWidgets-3.0 versions
Own Id: OTP-11985

from a list are replaced by
Own Id: OTP-11678
Reworked the internal event handling to avoid crashes in destroy objects. Thanks Tom for the bug report.
Own Id: OTP-11699
Application upgrade (appup) files are corrected for the following applications:
A new test utility for testing appup files is added to test_server. This is now used by most applications in OTP.
(Thanks to Tobias Schlager)
Own Id: OTP-11744
Fixed a problem which caused the debugger to crash when closing a window. Fixed static linking on mac.
Own Id: OTP-11444

Own Id: OTP-11393
Improve documentation (Thanks to Boris Mühmer)
Own Id: OTP-11505
Fix silent make rules (Thanks to Anthony Ramine)
Own Id: OTP-11515
Add {silent_start, boolean()} option to wx:new/1 in order to be able to suppress error messages during startup of wx. (Thanks to Håkan Mattsson)
Own Id: OTP-10585
Fix wxTreeCtrl:getBoundingRect/2 and wxTreeCtrl:hitTest/1. wxTreeCtrl:hitTest now returns a tuple not bug compatible with previous releases but needed.
Own Id: OTP-10743
The wx application now compiles and is usable with the unstable development branch of wxWidgets-2.9. Some functions are currently not available in wxWidgets-2.9 and their erlang counterparts are marked as deprecated. They will generate an error if called when linked against wxWidgets-2.9 libraries. This means that wx can now be built on 64bit MacOsX, but keep in mind that wxWidgets-2.9 is still a development branch and needs (a lot) more work before it becomes stable.
Own Id: OTP-10407 Aux Id: kunagi-262 [173]
Fix errors in wxDC and wxGraphicsContext api.
Add wxTaskBarIcon.
Add wxStyledTextControl:setEdgeMode/2.

Own Id: OTP-9415
Fixed wx app files on mac and solaris. Thanks Jachym Holecek and Joe Williams.
Own Id: OTP-9324
Wx crashed if graphics could not be initiated, for instance if DISPLAY was not available.
Wx could crash during startup, thanks Boris Muhmer for extra ordinary testing.
Own Id: OTP-9080
Wx on MacOS X generated complains on stderr about certain cocoa functions not beeing called from the "Main thread". This is now corrected.
Own Id: OTP-9081
Add wxSystemSettings which was missing in the previous release, despite previous comments.
Fix an external loop when stopping erlang nicely.
Separate OpenGL to it's own dynamic loaded library, so other graphic libraries can reuse the gl module and it will not waste memory if not used.
Own Id: OTP-8951
Fix crash (segmentation fault) in callback handling.
Own Id: OTP-8766

Added
Own Id: OTP-8408

Fixed pid issues, reported by Mazen.
Added wxLogNull class, reported by Amit Murthy.

Update OpenGL to version 3.1 and added some of the missing glu functions.
Fixed wxRadioBox which inherited the wrong class, thanks Atilla Erdodi.
