10 @class wxFontEnumerator
11
12 wxFontEnumerator enumerates either all available fonts on the system or only
13 the ones with given attributes - either only fixed-width (suited for use in
14 programs such as terminal emulators and the like) or the fonts available in
15 the given encoding).
16
17 To do this, you just have to call one of EnumerateXXX() functions - either
18 wxFontEnumerator::EnumerateFacenames() or wxFontEnumerator::EnumerateEncodings()
19 and the corresponding callback (wxFontEnumerator::OnFacename() or
20 wxFontEnumerator::OnFontEncoding()) will be called repeatedly until either
21 all fonts satisfying the specified criteria are exhausted or the callback
22 returns @false.
23
24 @section fontenum_virtual Virtual functions to override
25
26 Either OnFacename or OnFontEncoding should be overridden depending on
27 whether you plan to call EnumerateFacenames or EnumerateEncodings.
28 Of course, if you call both of them, you should override both functions.
