+This function is called before processing any event and allows the application

+going to be processed at all (for the latter one).

Windows-only function for processing a message. This function
is called from the main message loop, checking for windows that
was processed, FALSE otherwise. If you use wxWindows with another class
library with its own message loop, you should make sure that this
function is called to allow wxWindows to receive messages. For example,

\membersection{wxApp::SetUseBestVisual}\label{wxappsetusebestvisual}
\func{void}{SetUseBestVisual}{\param{bool}{ flag}}
Allows the programmer to specify whether the application will use the best visual
on systems that support several visual on the same display. This is typically the
case under Solaris and IRIX, where the default visual is only 8-bit whereas certain
-appications are supposed to run in TrueColour mode.
+applications are supposed to run in TrueColour mode.
Note that this function has to be called in the constructor of the {\tt wxApp}
instance and won't have any effect when called later on.
\docparam{flag}{If TRUE, the app will use the best visual.}
+\membersection{wxApp::Yield}\label{wxappyield}
+
+\func{bool}{Yield}{\param{bool}{ onlyIfNeeded = FALSE}}
+
+Yields control to pending messages in the windowing system. This can be useful, for example, when a
+time-consuming process writes to a text window. Without an occasional
+yield, the text window will not be updated properly, and on systems with
+cooperative multitasking, such as Windows 3.1 other processes will not respond.
+
+Caution should be exercised, however, since yielding may allow the
+user to perform actions which are not compatible with the current task.
+Disabling menu items or whole menus during processing can avoid unwanted
+reentrance of code: see \helpref{::wxSafeYield}{wxsafeyield} for a better
+function.
+
+Note that Yield() will not flush the message logs. This is intentional as
+calling Yield() is usually done to quickly update the screen and popping up a
+message box dialog may be undesirable. If you do wish to flush the log
+messages immediately (otherwise it will be done during the next idle loop
+iteration), call \helpref{wxLog::FlushActive}{wxlogflushactive}.
+
+Calling Yield() recursively is normally an error and an assert failure is
+raised in debug build if such situation is detected. However if the the
+{\it onlyIfNeeded} parameter is {\tt TRUE}, the method will just silently
+return {\tt FALSE} instead.
