74 wxDllLoader is a class providing an interface similar to unix's dlopen().
75 It is used by wxDynamicLibrary wxLibrary and manages the actual loading of
76 DLLs and the resolving of symbols in them. There are no instances of this
77 class, it simply serves as a namespace for its static member functions.
