  10     @class wxProgressDialog
  11
  12     This class represents a dialog that shows a short message and a
  13     progress bar. Optionally, it can display ABORT and SKIP buttons, and
  14     the elapsed, remaining and estimated time for the end of the progress.
  15
  16     Note that you must be aware that wxProgressDialog internally calls
  17     wxEventLoopBase::YieldFor with @c wxEVT_CATEGORY_UI and @c wxEVT_CATEGORY_USER_INPUT
  18     and this may cause unwanted re-entrancies or the out-of-order processing
  19     of pending events (to help preventing the last problem if you're using
  20     wxProgressDialog in a multi-threaded application you should be sure to use
  21     wxThreadEvent for your inter-threads communications).
  22
  23     @beginStyleTable
  24     @style{wxPD_APP_MODAL}
  25            Make the progress dialog modal. If this flag is not given, it is
  26            only "locally" modal - that is the input to the parent window is
  27            disabled, but not to the other ones.
  28     @style{wxPD_AUTO_HIDE}
  29            Causes the progress dialog to disappear from screen as soon as the
  30            maximum value of the progress meter has been reached.
  31            If this style is not present, the dialog will become a modal dialog
  32            (see wxDialog::ShowModal) once the maximum value has been reached;
  33            this results in processing of pending events and may cause
  34            unwanted re-entrancies.
  35     @style{wxPD_SMOOTH}
  36            Causes smooth progress of the gauge control (uses a wxGauge with the
  37            @c wxGA_SMOOTH style).
  38     @style{wxPD_CAN_ABORT}
  39            This flag tells the dialog that it should have a "Cancel" button
  40            which the user may press. If this happens, the next call to
  41            Update() will return @false.
  42     @style{wxPD_CAN_SKIP}
  43            This flag tells the dialog that it should have a "Skip" button
  44            which the user may press. If this happens, the next call to
  45            Update() will return @true in its skip parameter.
  46     @style{wxPD_ELAPSED_TIME}
  47            This flag tells the dialog that it should show elapsed time (since
  48            creating the dialog).
  49     @style{wxPD_ESTIMATED_TIME}
  50            This flag tells the dialog that it should show estimated time.
  51     @style{wxPD_REMAINING_TIME}
  52            This flag tells the dialog that it should show remaining time.
