3The wxStopWatch class allow you to measure time intervals. For example, you may
4use it to measure the time elapsed by some function:
5
6\begin{verbatim}
7 wxStopWatch sw;
8 CallLongRunningFunction();
9 wxLogMessage("The long running function took %ldms to execute",
10 sw.Time());
11 sw.Pause();
12 ... stopwatch is stopped now ...
13 sw.Resume();
14 CallLongRunningFunction();
15 wxLogMessage("And calling it twice took $ldms in all", sw.Time());
16\end{verbatim}

32Constructor. This starts the stop watch.

35
36\func{void}{Pause}{\void}
37
38Pauses the stop watch. Call \helpref{wxStopWatch::Resume}{wxstopwatchresume} to resume
39time measuring again.

41If this method is called several times, {\tt Resume()} must be called the same
42number of times to really resume the stop watch. You may, however, call
43\helpref{Start}{wxstopwatchstart} to resume it unconditionally.
