34 0: No assertion macros at all, this should only be used when optimizing
35 for resource-constrained systems (typically embedded ones).
36 1: Default level, most of the assertions are enabled.
37 2: Maximal (at least for now): asserts which are "expensive"
38 (performance-wise) or only make sense for finding errors in wxWidgets
39 itself, as opposed to bugs in applications using it, are also enabled.
