143 enum wxBackgroundStyle
146 Default background style value indicating that the background may be
147 erased in the user-defined EVT_ERASE_BACKGROUND handler.
149 If no such handler is defined (or if it skips the event), the effect of
150 this style is the same as wxBG_STYLE_SYSTEM. If an empty handler (@em
151 not skipping the event) is defined, the effect is the same as
152 wxBG_STYLE_PAINT, i.e. the background is not erased at all until
153 EVT_PAINT handler is executed.
155 This is the only background style value for which erase background
156 events are generated at all.
161 Use the default background, as determined by the system or the current
164 If the window has been assigned a non-default background colour, it
165 will be used for erasing its background. Otherwise the default
166 background (which might be a gradient or a pattern) will be used.
168 EVT_ERASE_BACKGROUND event will not be generated at all for windows
174 Indicates that the background is only erased in the user-defined
177 Using this style avoids flicker which would result from redrawing the
178 background twice if the EVT_PAINT handler entirely overwrites it. It
179 must not be used however if the paint handler leaves any parts of the
180 window unpainted as their contents is then undetermined. Only use it if
181 you repaint the whole window in your handler.
183 EVT_ERASE_BACKGROUND event will not be generated at all for windows

972 /** @addtogroup group_funcmacro_misc */
976 This macro can be used in a class declaration to disable the generation of
977 default assignment operator.
979 Some classes have a well-defined copy constructor but cannot have an
980 assignment operator, typically because they can't be modified once created.
981 In such case, this macro can be used to disable the automatic assignment
984 @see wxDECLARE_NO_COPY_CLASS()
986 #define wxDECLARE_NO_ASSIGN_CLASS(classname)
989 This macro can be used in a class declaration to disable the generation of
990 default copy ctor and assignment operator.
992 Some classes don't have a well-defined copying semantics. In this case the
993 standard C++ convention is to not allow copying them. One way of achieving
994 it is to use this macro which simply defines a private copy constructor and
997 Beware that simply not defining copy constructor and assignment operator is
998 @em not enough as the compiler would provide its own automatically-generated
999 versions of them -- hence the usefulness of this macro.
1010 // widgets can't be copied
1011 wxDECLARE_NO_COPY_CLASS(FooWidget);
1015 Notice that a semicolon must be used after this macro and that it changes
1016 the access specifier to private internally so it is better to use it at the
1017 end of the class declaration.

1024 Analog of wxDECLARE_NO_COPY_CLASS() for template classes.
1026 This macro can be used for template classes (with a single template
1027 parameter) for the same purpose as wxDECLARE_NO_COPY_CLASS() is used with the
1028 non-template classes.
1030 @param classname The name of the template class.
1031 @param arg The name of the template parameter.

1041 This macro can be used for template classes with two template
1042 parameters for the same purpose as wxDECLARE_NO_COPY_CLASS() is used with
1043 the non-template classes.
1045 @param classname The name of the template class.
1046 @param arg1 The name of the first template parameter.
1047 @param arg2 The name of the second template parameter.

1054 A function which deletes and nulls the pointer.
1056 This function uses operator delete to free the pointer and also sets it to
1057 @NULL. Notice that this does @em not work for arrays, use wxDELETEA() for
1061 MyClass *ptr = new MyClass;
1069 template <typename T
> wxDELETE(T
*& ptr
);
1072 A function which deletes and nulls the pointer.
1074 This function uses vector operator delete (@c delete[]) to free the array
1075 pointer and also sets it to @NULL. Notice that this does @em not work for
1076 non-array pointers, use wxDELETE() for them.
1079 MyClass *array = new MyClass[17];
1089 template <typename T
> wxDELETEA(T
*& array
);
1092 This macro can be used around a function declaration to generate warnings
1093 indicating that this function is deprecated (i.e. obsolete and planned to
1094 be removed in the future) when it is used. Only Visual C++ 7 and higher and
1095 g++ compilers currently support this functionality.
1100 // old function, use wxString version instead
1101 wxDEPRECATED( void wxGetSomething(char *buf, size_t len) );
1104 wxString wxGetSomething();
1109 #define wxDEPRECATED(function)
1112 This is a special version of wxDEPRECATED() macro which only does something
1113 when the deprecated function is used from the code outside wxWidgets itself
1114 but doesn't generate warnings when it is used from wxWidgets.
1116 It is used with the virtual functions which are called by the library
1117 itself -- even if such function is deprecated the library still has to call
1118 it to ensure that the existing code overriding it continues to work, but
1119 the use of this macro ensures that a deprecation warning will be generated
1120 if this function is used from the user code or, in case of Visual C++, even
1121 when it is simply overridden.
1125 #define wxDEPRECATED_BUT_USED_INTERNALLY(function)
1128 This macro is similar to wxDEPRECATED() but can be used to not only declare
1129 the function @a function as deprecated but to also provide its (inline)
1130 implementation @a body.
1132 It can be used as following:
1138 // OldMethod() is deprecated, use NewMethod() instead
1140 wxDEPRECATED_INLINE( void OldMethod(), NewMethod(); )
1146 #define wxDEPRECATED_INLINE(func, body)
1149 A helper macro allowing to easily define a simple deprecated accessor.
1151 Compared to wxDEPRECATED_INLINE() it saves a @c return statement and,
1152 especially, a strangely looking semicolon inside a macro.
1159 int GetValue() const { return m_value; }
1161 // this one is deprecated because it was erroneously non-const
1162 wxDEPRECATED_ACCESSOR( int GetValue(), m_value )
1169 #define wxDEPRECATED_ACCESSOR(func, what)
1172 Combination of wxDEPRECATED_BUT_USED_INTERNALLY() and wxDEPRECATED_INLINE().
1174 This macro should be used for deprecated functions called by the library
1175 itself (usually for backwards compatibility reasons) and which are defined
1180 #define wxDEPRECATED_BUT_USED_INTERNALLY_INLINE(func, body)
1183 @c wxEXPLICIT is a macro which expands to the C++ @c explicit keyword if
1184 the compiler supports it or nothing otherwise. Thus, it can be used even in
1185 the code which might have to be compiled with an old compiler without
1186 support for this language feature but still take advantage of it when it is
1194 GNU C++ compiler gives a warning for any class whose destructor is private
1195 unless it has a friend. This warning may sometimes be useful but it doesn't
1196 make sense for reference counted class which always delete themselves
1197 (hence destructor should be private) but don't necessarily have any
1198 friends, so this macro is provided to disable the warning in such case. The
1199 @a name parameter should be the name of the class but is only used to
1200 construct a unique friend class name internally.
1202 Example of using the macro:
1208 RefCounted() { m_nRef = 1; }
1209 void IncRef() { m_nRef++ ; }
1210 void DecRef() { if ( !--m_nRef ) delete this; }
1215 wxSUPPRESS_GCC_PRIVATE_DTOR(RefCounted)
1219 Notice that there should be no semicolon after this macro.
1223 #define wxSUPPRESS_GCC_PRIVATE_DTOR_WARNING(name)
1226 Swaps the contents of two variables.
1228 This is similar to std::swap() but can be used even on the platforms where
1229 the standard C++ library is not available (if you don't target such
1230 platforms, please use std::swap() instead).
1232 The function relies on type T being copy constructible and assignable.
1239 wxASSERT( x == 4 && y == 3 );
1242 template <typename T
> wxSwap(T
& first
, T
& second
);
1245 This macro is the same as the standard C99 @c va_copy for the compilers
1246 which support it or its replacement for those that don't. It must be used
1247 to preserve the value of a @c va_list object if you need to use it after
1248 passing it to another function because it can be modified by the latter.
1250 As with @c va_start, each call to @c wxVaCopy must have a matching
1255 void wxVaCopy(va_list argptrDst
, va_list argptrSrc
);
