I think the main differences are due the switch from libsigc++1.2 to
libsigc++2.0.
Instead of

button_.signal_clicked().connect
( SigC::slot(*this, &SomeClass::on_button_clicked) );

you'll have to write

button_.signal_clicked().connect
( sigc::mem_fun(*this, &SomeClass::on_button_clicked) );

Besides, you may find the new UIMangager class

interesting, which is new in the 2.4 API.
