13 This class encapsulates functions dealing with verifying the connection status
14 of the workstation (connected to the Internet via a direct connection,
15 connected through a modem or not connected at all) and to establish this
16 connection if possible/required (i.e. in the case of the modem).
7c913512 17
23324ae1
FM
18 The program may also wish to be notified about the change in the connection
19 status (for example, to perform some action when the user connects to the
20 network the next time or, on the contrary, to stop receiving data from the net
21 when the user hangs up the modem). For this, you need to use one of the event
22 macros described below.
7c913512 23
23324ae1 24 This class is different from other wxWidgets classes in that there is at most
7c913512 25 one instance of this class in the program accessed via
23324ae1
FM
26 wxDialUpManager::Create and you can't
27 create the objects of this class directly.
