    @class wxGenericDirCtrl

    This control can  be used to place a directory listing (with optional
    files) on an arbitrary window.

    The control contains a wxTreeCtrl window representing the directory
    hierarchy, and optionally, a wxChoice window containing a list of filters.

    @beginStyleTable
    @style{wxDIRCTRL_DIR_ONLY}
           Only show directories, and not files.
    @style{wxDIRCTRL_3D_INTERNAL}
           Use 3D borders for internal controls.
    @style{wxDIRCTRL_SELECT_FIRST}
           When setting the default path, select the first file in the
           directory.
    @style{wxDIRCTRL_EDIT_LABELS}
           Allow the folder and file labels to be editable.

        @param filter
            A filter string, using the same syntax as that for wxFileDialog.
            This may be empty if filters are not being used. Example:
            @c "All files (*.*)|*.*|JPEG files (*.jpg)|*.jpg"
        @param defaultFilter
            The zero-indexed default filter setting.
        @param name
            The window name.
