2.5.1 Migration guide needs more information

wxPython Users

I found the following differences from 2.4.2.4 to 2.5.1

wx.true replace with True
wx.false replace with False
wx.NULL replace with None

All calls to Add on sizers that take a width and height need to change
to take a tuple of width and height.

Tree control GetFirstChild no longed needs the cookie second param as
input.

You might want to add to the Migration guide.

Yep.

to take a tuple of width and height.

This one is already there:

"""
When adding a spacer to a sizer you now need to use a wx.Size or a 2-integer sequence instead of separate width and height parameters.
"""

Tree control GetFirstChild no longed needs the cookie second param as
input.

Yep. Thanks for pointing these out.

And GetNextChild does need it? So this will not work any more:

nc = self.GetChildrenCount(self.root, False)
GetChild = self.GetFirstChild
    for i in range(nc):
        child, cookie = GetChild(self.root, cookie)
        GetChild = self.GetNextChild
        .....

No, but this will:

  item, cookie = self.GetFirstChild(self.root)
  while item:
    DoSomething(item)
    item, cookie = self.GetNextChild(item, cookie)
