11 @page page_utils Included Utilities
12
13 In addition to the wxWidgets libraries (see @ref page_libs), some utilities
14 are available to the users in the @c utils hierarchy (even if some of them are
15 explicitely coinceived for wxWidgets maintainance and will probably be of
16 little use to others).
17
18 Please note that these utilities do represent only the utilities developed
19 and maintained by the wxWidgets team.
20 There are lots of other user-contributed and user-maintained packages;
21 see the wxWidgets download page: http://www.wxwidgets.org/downloads
22 or directly http://wxcode.sourceforge.net or http://www.wxcommunity.com/ .

34 @section page_utils_emulator Emulator
35
36 Xnest-based display emulator for X11-based PDA applications.
37
38 <!-- On some systems, the Xnest window does not synchronise with the
39 'skin' window. THIS ISN'T THE PLACE FOR THIS STATEMENT I THINK -->
40
41 This program can be found in @c utils/emulator.
42
43
44 @section page_utils_helpview Help Viewer
45
46 Helpview is a program for displaying wxWidgets HTML Help files.
47 In many cases, you may wish to use the wxWidgets HTML
48 Help classes from within your application, but this provides a
49 handy stand-alone viewer. See @ref overview_html for more details.
50
51 You can find Helpview in @c utils/helpview.
52
53
54 @section page_utils_hhp2cached HHP2Cached
55
56 This utility creates a "cached" version of a @c .hhp file; using cached @c .hhp
57 files in wxHtmlHelpController can drammatically improve the performances
58 of the help viewer. See wxHtmlHelpController for more details.
59
60 You can find HHP2Cached in @c utils/hhp2cached.
61
62
63 @section page_utils_ifacecheck Interface checker
64
65 This utility compares the wxWidgets real interface contained in the @c include
66 hierarchy with the wxWidgets interface used for documentation purposes and
67 kept in the @c interface hierarchy.
68
69 Ifacecheck warns about incoherences (mainly wrong prototype signatures) and
70 can even correct them automatically. It uses the XML outputs of the gccxml utility
71 (see http://www.gccxml.org) and of the Doxygen utility (see http://www.doxygen.org)
72 to do the comparisons.
73
74 You can find it in @c utils/ifacecheck.
75
76
77 @section page_utils_wxrc wxWidgets XML Resource Compiler
78
79 This utility allows the user to compile @e binary versions of their XRC files,
80 which are compressed and can be loaded faster than plain XRC files.
81 See @ref overview_xrc for more info.
82
83 You can find it under @c utils/wxrc.
