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