12 @ingroup group_funcmacro
14 wxWidgets uses its own RTTI ("run-time type identification") system which
15 predates the current standard C++ RTTI and so is kept for backwards
16 compatibility reasons but also because it allows some things which the standard
17 RTTI doesn't directly support (such as creating a class from its name). The
18 standard C++ RTTI can be used in the user code without any problems and in
19 general you shouldn't need to use the functions and the macros in this section
20 unless you are thinking of modifying or adding any wxWidgets classes.
