Difference between revisions of "Porting tips and changes from 0.7.X to 0.8.X"

This is work in progress, so while this page will be kept as up-to-date as possible, what you read here on any given day will never be definitive and is subject to further change until such time as a stable release is made. There are no current download packages contain the code this page relates to; this code is only available from the cegui_mk2/trunk directory in the subversion repository (see HOWTO: Obtain the library source from subversion).

• PropertyHelper has been turned into a template class, instead of PropertyHelper::uintToString you do PropertyHelper<uint>::toString, instead of PropertyHelper::stringToUint you do PropertyHelper<uint>::fromString
• All instances of the word caret that were incorrectly spelt 'carat' have been corrected. This affects all APIs, properties, events and datafiles.
• Window::EventWindowUpdated renamed to Window::EventUpdated and the associated string is changed from "WindowUpdate" to "Updated"
• ListHeader::SegmentNameSuffix changed type from character array to CEGUI::String
• EventMouseEnters renamed to EventMouseEntersSurface (old name removed)
• EventMouseLeaves renamed to EventMouseLeavesSurface (old name removed)
• BiDiVisualMapping renamed to BidiVisualMapping. Also renamed the files, so CEGUIBiDiVisualMapping.h is now CEGUIBidiVisualMapping.h
• class colour renamed to Colour, as a side effect the "colour" interpolator is now "Colour" interpolator, this breaks animation definitions!
• Point typedef removed, please use Vector2 instead
• Many event string values changed to match the C++ name (but without the Event prefix). A list of which strings changed value will appear here soon.
• Window::setRestoreCapture renamed to Window::setRestoreOldCapture
• CEGUI now supports custom memory allocation, see Memory Allocation to check if this concerns you or not.
