wxWidgets 3.2.1 Released
Posted on
The second release in the recently started 3.2 series is now available on GitHub. You will find there archives with the library sources and documentation as well as binaries for the selected Windows compilers such as Microsoft Visual C++, MinGW-w64 and TDM-GCC. You can also read the updated documentation for this version and, in particular, if you’re new to wxWidgets, you may find the installation guide a good starting point.
Changes in this release
Coming soon after 3.2.0, this is mostly a bug fix release, with just one noteworthy new feature: the addition of wxFileDialog::AddShortcut() function. However it fixes some important regressions and other problems:
- Fix crash in applications calling
g_log_set_writer_func()
with recent glib. - Several fixes to alpha channel handling in wxMSW bitmaps.
- Generate key and focus events for
wxSearchCtrl
in wxOSX. - Fix creating wxRadioBox without any items in wxOSX.
- Fix regression with AUI floating pane positioning.
- Avoid new warnings given by gcc 12.
- Fix building with MSVS 2022 standard-conforming preprocessor.
- Work around MSVS 2022 optimizer bug that broke
wxImage
resizing. - NetBSD build fixes.
Please see the full change log for more details.
This release is API and ABI-compatible with 3.2.0, so the existing applications don’t even need to be rebuilt to profit from all the fixes above if they use shared/dynamic libraries. And if they do need to be recompiled, this can be done without any changes to the code.
