When I start the minimal sample (or any other wxWidgets app) like below, the app's window is neither put to the front and nor does it get activated. It's opened in the background and it is inactive instead. This is the line:

You really, really, really shouldn't do that.
The native OSX behavior is to use Application Bundle and so running it
like this doesn't guarantee\
that everything will work correctly.
In particular the menus will not be active and some other tools might not work.

Does anybody have an idea what change between wxWidgets 3.1.0 and 3.1.4 could have triggered this change in behaviour? I'd really like to have the old behaviour back so I'm wondering if anybody knows what is responsible for this change in behaviour...
From what I heard, OSX will prohibit using *nix-style application run
in the near future.
Thank you.
