    @class wxRegKey

    wxRegKey is a class representing the Windows registry (it is only available
    under Windows). One can create, query and delete registry keys using this
    class.

    The Windows registry is easy to understand. There are five registry keys,
    namely:

    @li @c HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT (HKCR)
    @li @c HKEY_CURRENT_USER (HKCU)
    @li @c HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE (HKLM)
    @li @c HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG (HKCC)
    @li @c HKEY_USERS (HKU)

    After creating a key, it can hold a value. The values can be:

    @li String Value
    @li Binary Value
    @li DWORD Value
    @li Multi String Value
    @li Expandable String Value

    @onlyfor{wxmsw}

    @library{wxbase}
    @category{misc}

    @b Example:

    @code
    wxRegKey *key = new wxRegKey("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\Software\\MyKey");

    // Create the key if it does not exist.
    if( !key->Exists() )
        key->Create();

    // Create a new value "MYVALUE" and set it to 12.
    key->SetValue("MYVALUE", 12);

    // Read the value back.
    long value;
    key->QueryValue("MYVALUE", &value);
    wxMessageBox(wxString::Format("%d", value), "Registry Value", wxOK);

    // Get the number of subkeys and enumerate them.
    size_t subkeys;
    key->GetKeyInfo(&subkeys, NULL, NULL, NULL);

    wxString key_name;
    key->GetFirstKey(key_name, 1);
    for(int i = 0; i < subkeys; i++)
    {
        wxMessageBox(key_name, "Subkey Name", wxOK);
        key->GetNextKey(key_name, 1);
    }
    @endcode
