  10     Item kinds for use with wxMenu, wxMenuItem, and wxToolBar. 
  12     @see wxMenu::Append(), wxMenuItem::wxMenuItem(), wxToolBar::AddTool() 
  16     wxITEM_SEPARATOR 
= -1, 
  19         Normal tool button / menu item. 
  21         @see wxToolBar::AddTool(), wxMenu::AppendItem(). 
  26         Check (or toggle) tool button / menu item. 
  28         @see wxToolBar::AddCheckTool(), wxMenu::AppendCheckItem(). 
  33         Radio tool button / menu item. 
  35         @see wxToolBar::AddRadioTool(), wxMenu::AppendRadioItem(). 
  40         Normal tool button with a dropdown arrow next to it. Clicking the 
  41         dropdown arrow sends a @c wxEVT_COMMAND_TOOL_DROPDOWN_CLICKED event and may 
  42         also display the menu previously associated with the item with 
  43         wxToolBar::SetDropdownMenu(). Currently this type of tools is supported 
  53     Paper size types for use with the printing framework.

 183 /** @ingroup group_funcmacro_byteorder */

 188     to big endian or vice versa unconditionally, i.e. independently of the

 200 /** @ingroup group_funcmacro_byteorder */ 
 204     This macro will swap the bytes of the @a value variable from little endian 
 205     to big endian or vice versa if the program is compiled on a big-endian 
 206     architecture (such as Sun work stations). If the program has been compiled 
 207     on a little-endian architecture, the value will be unchanged. 
 209     Use these macros to read data from and write data to a file that stores 
 210     data in little-endian (for example Intel i386) format.

 225     This macro will swap the bytes of the @a value variable from little endian 
 226     to big endian or vice versa if the program is compiled on a little-endian 
 227     architecture (such as Intel PCs). If the program has been compiled on a

 244 /** @ingroup group_funcmacro_misc */ 
 248     This macro can be used in a class declaration to disable the generation of 
 249     default assignment operator. 
 251     Some classes have a well-defined copy constructor but cannot have an 
 252     assignment operator, typically because they can't be modified once created. 
 253     In such case, this macro can be used to disable the automatic assignment 
 256     @see DECLARE_NO_COPY_CLASS() 
 258 #define DECLARE_NO_ASSIGN_CLASS(classname) 
 261     This macro can be used in a class declaration to disable the generation of 
 262     default copy ctor and assignment operator. 
 264     Some classes don't have a well-defined copying semantics. In this case the 
 265     standard C++ convention is to not allow copying them. One way of achieving 
 266     it is to use this macro which simply defines a private copy constructor and 
 269     Beware that simply not defining copy constructor and assignment operator is 
 270     @em not enough as the compiler would provide its own automatically-generated 
 271     versions of them -- hence the usefulness of this macro. 
 282         // widgets can't be copied 
 283         DECLARE_NO_COPY_CLASS(FooWidget) 
 287     Notice that a semicolon should not be used after this macro and that it 
 288     changes the access specifier to private internally so it is better to use 
 289     it at the end of the class declaration. 
 291 #define DECLARE_NO_COPY_CLASS(classname) 
 294     Equivalent of DECLARE_NO_COPY_CLASS() for template classes. 
 296     This macro can be used for template classes (with a single template 
 297     parameter) for the same purpose as DECLARE_NO_COPY_CLASS() is used with the 
 298     non-template classes. 
 300     @param classname The name of the template class. 
 301     @param arg The name of the template parameter. 
 303 #define DECLARE_NO_COPY_TEMPLATE_CLASS(classname, arg) 
 306     A function which deletes and nulls the pointer. 
 308     This function uses operator delete to free the pointer and also sets it to 
 309     @NULL. Notice that this does @em not work for arrays, use wxDELETEA() for 
 313         MyClass *ptr = new MyClass; 
 321 template <typename T
> wxDELETE(T
*& ptr
); 
 324     A function which deletes and nulls the pointer. 
 326     This function uses vector operator delete (@c delete[]) to free the array 
 327     pointer and also sets it to @NULL. Notice that this does @em not work for 
 328     non-array pointers, use wxDELETE() for them. 
 331         MyClass *array = new MyClass[17]; 
 341 template <typename T
> wxDELETEA(T
*& array
); 
 344     This macro can be used around a function declaration to generate warnings 
 345     indicating that this function is deprecated (i.e. obsolete and planned to 
 346     be removed in the future) when it is used. Only Visual C++ 7 and higher and 
 347     g++ compilers currently support this functionality. 
 352     // old function, use wxString version instead 
 353     wxDEPRECATED( void wxGetSomething(char *buf, size_t len) ); 
 356     wxString wxGetSomething(); 
 361 #define wxDEPRECATED(function) 
 364     This is a special version of wxDEPRECATED() macro which only does something 
 365     when the deprecated function is used from the code outside wxWidgets itself 
 366     but doesn't generate warnings when it is used from wxWidgets. 
 368     It is used with the virtual functions which are called by the library 
 369     itself -- even if such function is deprecated the library still has to call 
 370     it to ensure that the existing code overriding it continues to work, but 
 371     the use of this macro ensures that a deprecation warning will be generated 
 372     if this function is used from the user code or, in case of Visual C++, even 
 373     when it is simply overridden. 
 377 #define wxDEPRECATED_BUT_USED_INTERNALLY(function) 
 380     This macro is similar to wxDEPRECATED() but can be used to not only declare 
 381     the function @a function as deprecated but to also provide its (inline) 
 382     implementation @a body. 
 384     It can be used as following: 
 390         // OldMethod() is deprecated, use NewMethod() instead 
 392         wxDEPRECATED_INLINE( void OldMethod(), NewMethod() ); 
 398 #define wxDEPRECATED_INLINE(func, body) 
 401     @c wxEXPLICIT is a macro which expands to the C++ @c explicit keyword if 
 402     the compiler supports it or nothing otherwise. Thus, it can be used even in 
 403     the code which might have to be compiled with an old compiler without 
 404     support for this language feature but still take advantage of it when it is 
 412     GNU C++ compiler gives a warning for any class whose destructor is private 
 413     unless it has a friend. This warning may sometimes be useful but it doesn't 
 414     make sense for reference counted class which always delete themselves 
 415     (hence destructor should be private) but don't necessarily have any 
 416     friends, so this macro is provided to disable the warning in such case. The 
 417     @a name parameter should be the name of the class but is only used to 
 418     construct a unique friend class name internally. 
 420     Example of using the macro: 
 426         RefCounted() { m_nRef = 1; } 
 427         void IncRef() { m_nRef++ ; } 
 428         void DecRef() { if ( !--m_nRef ) delete this; } 
 433         wxSUPPRESS_GCC_PRIVATE_DTOR(RefCounted) 
 437     Notice that there should be no semicolon after this macro. 
 441 #define wxSUPPRESS_GCC_PRIVATE_DTOR_WARNING(name) 
 444     Swaps the contents of two variables. 
 446     This is similar to std::swap() but can be used even on the platforms where 
 447     the standard C++ library is not available (if you don't target such 
 448     platforms, please use std::swap() instead). 
 450     The function relies on type T being copy constructible and assignable. 
 457         wxASSERT( x == 4 && y == 3 ); 
 460 template <typename T
> wxSwap(T
& first
, T
& second
); 
 463     This macro is the same as the standard C99 @c va_copy for the compilers 
 464     which support it or its replacement for those that don't. It must be used 
 465     to preserve the value of a @c va_list object if you need to use it after 
 466     passing it to another function because it can be modified by the latter. 
 468     As with @c va_start, each call to @c wxVaCopy must have a matching 
 473 void wxVaCopy(va_list argptrDst
, va_list argptrSrc
);
