Description
Compiling wxWidgets fails when trying to build dcscreen.cpp with the following error message:
/Users/stephen/git/programs/c++/MidiMessageViewer/wxWidgets/src/osx/carbon/dcscreen.cpp:73:13: error: 'CGDisplayCreateImage' is unavailable: obsoleted in macOS 15.0 - Please use ScreenCaptureKit instead.
73 | image = CGDisplayCreateImage(kCGDirectMainDisplay);
It appears CGDisplayCreateImage will no longer available in the upcoming macOS 15 Sequoia release.

Thanks for reporting this.
If anybody knows how to use ScreenCaptureKit instead, PRs would be welcome, but otherwise we probably just need to disable this code and document that wxScreenDC doesn't work under macOS (or just about anywhere else AFAIK).
