\item to create a dialog from a resource, create it using the default constructor, and then
load using for example \verb$wxXmlResource::Get()->LoadDialog(&dlg, this, "dlg1")$;
\item set up event tables as usual but use the \verb$XRCID(str)$ macro to translate from XRC string names
-to a suitable integer identifier, for example \verb$EVT_MENU(XRCID("quit"), MyFrame::OnQuit)$.
+to a suitable integer identifier, for example \verb$EVT\_MENU(XRCID("quit"), MyFrame::OnQuit)$.
\end{itemize}
To create an XRC file, use one of the following methods.
This is the C++ source file (xrcdemo.cpp) for the XRC sample.
