wxWidgets 3.2.10 and 3.3.2 Released

Posted on

Today not one but two new wxWidgets releases were made available: 3.2.10, the latest maintenance release in the stable 3.2 series, and 3.3.2, the third release in the 3.3 series containing all the latest developments with almost 1000 changes from 61 contributors since the previous 3.3.1 release.

Both releases can be downloaded from GitHub, please follow these links to download archives with the library sources and documentation as well as binaries for the selected Windows compilers such as Microsoft Visual C++ and MinGW-w64: for 3.2.10 release and for 3.3.2 one. Online documentation has also been updated and can be accessed at 3.2.10 documentation home and 3.3.2 respectively.

If you are new to wxWidgets, you may find the installation guide a good starting point. If you are upgrading to 3.3.2 from a previous version, please make sure to check the change log and, especially, the INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES section there.
