/*
    This class has two main differences from a regular listbox: it can have an
    arbitrarily huge number of items because it doesn't store them itself but
    uses OnDrawItem() callback to draw them and its items can have variable
    height as determined by OnMeasureItem().

    It emits the same events as wxListBox and the same event macros may be used
    with it.
