I'm coming from Qt trying to learn wxWidgets.

When a user selects an element from a wxComboBox I want to get the value that is being changed from and the value that is being changed to. I need to be able to change some other elements in my GUI in reaction to the previous and selected values.

In Qt I would have had to override the QComboBox and create my own signal. This example is a little overkill because the user cannot type into my combobox, nor can he add elements, but you get the idea: https://stackoverflow.com/a/3184619/2642059

Is there a way to accomplish this in wxWidgets? Or do I just have to maintain a variable holding the previous value and update that after each user selection?

Yes, you will need to remember the last selection yourself, wxWidgets doesn't do it for you (and neither does the native control).
