  86
  87 Constructor. Create instances dynamically near the start of your application after creating
  88 a wxDocManager instance, and before doing any document or view operations.
  89
  90 {\it manager} is the document manager object which manages this template.
  91
  92 {\it descr} is a short description of what the template is for. This string will be displayed in the
  93 file filter list of Windows file selectors.
  94
  95 {\it filter} is an appropriate file filter such as {\tt *.txt}.
  96
  97 {\it dir} is the default directory to use for file selectors.
  98
  99 {\it ext} is the default file extension (such as txt).
 100
 101 {\it docTypeName} is a name that should be unique for a given type of document, used for
 102 gathering a list of views relevant to a particular document.
 103
 104 {\it viewTypeName} is a name that should be unique for a given view.
 105
 106 {\it docClassInfo} is a pointer to the run-time document class information as returned
 107 by the CLASSINFO macro, e.g. CLASSINFO(MyDocumentClass). If this is not supplied,
 108 you will need to derive a new wxDocTemplate class and override the CreateDocument
 109 member to return a new document instance on demand.
 110
 111 {\it viewClassInfo} is a pointer to the run-time view class information as returned
 112 by the CLASSINFO macro, e.g. CLASSINFO(MyViewClass). If this is not supplied,
 113 you will need to derive a new wxDocTemplate class and override the CreateView
 114 member to return a new view instance on demand.
 115
 116 {\it flags} is a bit list of the following:
 117
 118 \begin{itemize}\itemsep=0pt
 119 \item wxTEMPLATE\_VISIBLE The template may be displayed to the user in dialogs.
 120 \item wxTEMPLATE\_INVISIBLE The template may not be displayed to the user in dialogs.
 121 \item wxDEFAULT\_TEMPLATE\_FLAGS Defined as wxTEMPLATE\_VISIBLE.
 122 \end{itemize}
 123
 124 \perlnote{In wxPerl {\tt docClassInfo} and {\tt viewClassInfo} can be
 125 either {\tt Wx::ClassInfo} objects or strings which contain the name
 126 of the perl packages which are to be used as {\tt Wx::Document} and
