+        Processes an event, searching event tables and calling zero or more suitable
+        event handler function(s).
+
+        Normally, your application would not call this function: it is called in the
+        wxWidgets implementation to dispatch incoming user interface events to the
+        framework (and application).
+
+        However, you might need to call it if implementing new functionality
+        (such as a new control) where you define new event types, as opposed to
+        allowing the user to override virtual functions.
+
+        Notice that you don't usually need to override ProcessEvent() to
+        customize the event handling, overriding the specially provided
+        TryBefore() and TryAfter() functions is usually enough. For example,
+        wxMDIParentFrame may override TryBefore() to ensure that the menu
+        events are processed in the active child frame before being processed
+        in the parent frame itself.
+
+        The normal order of event table searching is as follows:
+        -# wxApp::FilterEvent() is called. If it returns anything but @c -1
+           (default) the processing stops here.
+        -# TryBefore() is called (this is where wxValidator are taken into
+           account for wxWindow objects). If this returns @true, the function exits.
+        -# If the object is disabled (via a call to wxEvtHandler::SetEvtHandlerEnabled)
+           the function skips to step (7).
+        -# Dynamic event table of the handlers bound using Bind<>() is
+           searched. If a handler is found, it is executed and the function
+           returns @true unless the handler used wxEvent::Skip() to indicate
+           that it didn't handle the event in which case the search continues.
+        -# Static events table of the handlers bound using event table
+           macros is searched for this event handler. If this fails, the base
+           class event table is tried, and so on until no more tables
+           exist or an appropriate function was found. If a handler is found,
+           the same logic as in the previous step applies.
+        -# The search is applied down the entire chain of event handlers (usually the
+           chain has a length of one). This chain can be formed using wxEvtHandler::SetNextHandler():
+              @image html overview_events_chain.png
+           (referring to the image, if @c A->ProcessEvent is called and it doesn't handle
+            the event, @c B->ProcessEvent will be called and so on...).
+           Note that in the case of wxWindow you can build a stack of event handlers
+           (see wxWindow::PushEventHandler() for more info).
+           If any of the handlers of the chain return @true, the function exits.
+        -# TryAfter() is called: for the wxWindow object this may propagate the
+           event to the window parent (recursively). If the event is still not
+           processed, ProcessEvent() on wxTheApp object is called as the last
+           step.

-    This event class contains information about keypress (character) events.
-
-    Notice that there are three different kinds of keyboard events in wxWidgets:
-    key down and up events and char events. The difference between the first two
-    is clear - the first corresponds to a key press and the second to a key
-    release - otherwise they are identical. Just note that if the key is
-    maintained in a pressed state you will typically get a lot of (automatically
-    generated) down events but only one up so it is wrong to assume that there is
-    one up event corresponding to each down one.
-
-    Both key events provide untranslated key codes while the char event carries
-    the translated one. The untranslated code for alphanumeric keys is always
-    an upper case value. For the other keys it is one of @c WXK_XXX values
-    from the @ref page_keycodes.
-    The translated key is, in general, the character the user expects to appear
-    as the result of the key combination when typing the text into a text entry
-    zone, for example.
-
-    A few examples to clarify this (all assume that CAPS LOCK is unpressed
-    and the standard US keyboard): when the @c 'A' key is pressed, the key down
-    event key code is equal to @c ASCII A == 65. But the char event key code
-    is @c ASCII a == 97. On the other hand, if you press both SHIFT and
-    @c 'A' keys simultaneously , the key code in key down event will still be
-    just @c 'A' while the char event key code parameter will now be @c 'A'
-    as well.
-
-    Although in this simple case it is clear that the correct key code could be
-    found in the key down event handler by checking the value returned by
-    wxKeyEvent::ShiftDown(), in general you should use @c EVT_CHAR for this as
-    for non-alphanumeric keys the translation is keyboard-layout dependent and
-    can only be done properly by the system itself.
-
-    Another kind of translation is done when the control key is pressed: for
-    example, for CTRL-A key press the key down event still carries the
-    same key code @c 'a' as usual but the char event will have key code of 1,
-    the ASCII value of this key combination.
-
-    You may discover how the other keys on your system behave interactively by
-    running the @ref page_samples_text wxWidgets sample and pressing some keys
-    in any of the text controls shown in it.
-
-    @b Tip: be sure to call @c event.Skip() for events that you don't process in
-    key event function, otherwise menu shortcuts may cease to work under Windows.
+    This event class contains information about key press and release events.
+
+    The main information carried by this event is the key being pressed or
+    released. It can be accessed using either GetKeyCode() function or
+    GetUnicodeKey(). For the printable characters, the latter should be used as
+    it works for any keys, including non-Latin-1 characters that can be entered
+    when using national keyboard layouts. GetKeyCode() should be used to handle
+    special characters (such as cursor arrows keys or @c HOME or @c INS and so
+    on) which correspond to ::wxKeyCode enum elements above the @c WXK_START
+    constant. While GetKeyCode() also returns the character code for Latin-1
+    keys for compatibility, it doesn't work for Unicode characters in general
+    and will return @c WXK_NONE for any non-Latin-1 ones. For this reason, it's
+    recommended to always use GetUnicodeKey() and only fall back to GetKeyCode()
+    if GetUnicodeKey() returned @c WXK_NONE meaning that the event corresponds
+    to a non-printable special keys.
+
+    While both of these functions can be used with the events of @c
+    wxEVT_KEY_DOWN, @c wxEVT_KEY_UP and @c wxEVT_CHAR types, the values
+    returned by them are different for the first two events and the last one.
+    For the latter, the key returned corresponds to the character that would
+    appear in e.g. a text zone if the user pressed the key in it. As such, its
+    value depends on the current state of the Shift key and, for the letters,
+    on the state of Caps Lock modifier. For example, if @c A key is pressed
+    without Shift being held down, wxKeyEvent of type @c wxEVT_CHAR generated
+    for this key press will return (from either GetKeyCode() or GetUnicodeKey()
+    as their meanings coincide for ASCII characters) key code of 97
+    corresponding the ASCII value of @c a. And if the same key is pressed but
+    with Shift being held (or Caps Lock being active), then the key could would
+    be 65, i.e. ASCII value of capital @c A.
+
+    However for the key down and up events the returned key code will instead
+    be @c A independently of the state of the modifier keys i.e. it depends
+    only on physical key being pressed and is not translated to its logical
+    representation using the current keyboard state. Such untranslated key
+    codes are defined as follows:
+        - For the letters they correspond to the @e upper case value of the
+        letter.
+        - For the other alphanumeric keys (e.g. @c 7 or @c +), the untranslated
+        key code corresponds to the character produced by the key when it is
+        pressed without Shift. E.g. in standard US keyboard layout the
+        untranslated key code for the key @c =/+ in the upper right corner of
+        the keyboard is 61 which is the ASCII value of @c =.
+        - For the rest of the keys (i.e. special non-printable keys) it is the
+        same as the normal key code as no translation is used anyhow.
+
+    Notice that the first rule applies to all Unicode letters, not just the
+    usual Latin-1 ones. However for non-Latin-1 letters only GetUnicodeKey()
+    can be used to retrieve the key code as GetKeyCode() just returns @c
+    WXK_NONE in this case.
+
+    To summarize: you should handle @c wxEVT_CHAR if you need the translated
+    key and @c wxEVT_KEY_DOWN if you only need the value of the key itself,
+    independent of the current keyboard state.
+
+    @note Not all key down events may be generated by the user. As an example,
+        @c wxEVT_KEY_DOWN with @c = key code can be generated using the
+        standard US keyboard layout but not using the German one because the @c
+        = key corresponds to Shift-0 key combination in this layout and the key
+        code for it is @c 0, not @c =. Because of this you should avoid
+        requiring your users to type key events that might be impossible to
+        enter on their keyboard.
+
+
+    Another difference between key and char events is that another kind of
+    translation is done for the latter ones when the Control key is pressed:
+    char events for ASCII letters in this case carry codes corresponding to the
+    ASCII value of Ctrl-Latter, i.e. 1 for Ctrl-A, 2 for Ctrl-B and so on until
+    26 for Ctrl-Z. This is convenient for terminal-like applications and can be
+    completely ignored by all the other ones (if you need to handle Ctrl-A it
+    is probably a better idea to use the key event rather than the char one).
+    Notice that currently no translation is done for the presses of @c [, @c
+    \\, @c ], @c ^ and @c _ keys which might be mapped to ASCII values from 27
+    to 31.
+    Since version 2.9.2, the enum values @c WXK_CONTROL_A - @c WXK_CONTROL_Z
+    can be used instead of the non-descriptive constant values 1-26.
+
+    Finally, modifier keys only generate key events but no char events at all.
+    The modifiers keys are @c WXK_SHIFT, @c WXK_CONTROL, @c WXK_ALT and various
+    @c WXK_WINDOWS_XXX from ::wxKeyCode enum.
+
+    Modifier keys events are special in one additional aspect: usually the
+    keyboard state associated with a key press is well defined, e.g.
+    wxKeyboardState::ShiftDown() returns @c true only if the Shift key was held
+    pressed when the key that generated this event itself was pressed. There is
+    an ambiguity for the key press events for Shift key itself however. By
+    convention, it is considered to be already pressed when it is pressed and
+    already released when it is released. In other words, @c wxEVT_KEY_DOWN
+    event for the Shift key itself will have @c wxMOD_SHIFT in GetModifiers()
+    and ShiftDown() will return true while the @c wxEVT_KEY_UP event for Shift
+    itself will not have @c wxMOD_SHIFT in its modifiers and ShiftDown() will
+    return false.
+
+
+    @b Tip: You may discover the key codes and modifiers generated by all the
+        keys on your system interactively by running the @ref
+        page_samples_keyboard wxWidgets sample and pressing some keys in it.

+          event.Skip() in your @c wxEVT_KEY_DOWN handler. Not doing may also

+        this event is propagated upwards the window hierarchy which allows
+        intercepting it in the parent window of the focused window to which it
+        is sent initially (if there is no focused window, this event is sent to
+        the wxApp global object). It is also generated before any other key
+        events and so gives the parent window an opportunity to modify the
+        keyboard handling of its children, e.g. it is used internally by
+        wxWidgets in some ports to intercept pressing Esc key in any child of a
+        dialog to close the dialog itself when it's pressed. By default, if
+        this event is handled, i.e. the handler doesn't call wxEvent::Skip(),
+        neither @c wxEVT_KEY_DOWN nor @c wxEVT_CHAR events will be generated
+        (although @c wxEVT_KEY_UP still will be), i.e. it replaces the normal
+        key events. However by calling the special DoAllowNextEvent() method
+        you can handle @c wxEVT_CHAR_HOOK and still allow normal events
+        generation. This is something that is rarely useful but can be required
+        if you need to prevent a parent @c wxEVT_CHAR_HOOK handler from running
+        without suppressing the normal key events. Finally notice that this
+        event is not generated when the mouse is captured as it is considered
+        that the window which has the capture should receive all the keyboard
+        events too without allowing its parent wxTopLevelWindow to interfere
+        with their processing.

+
+    This event class contains information about command events, which originate
+    from a variety of simple controls.
+
+    Note that wxCommandEvents and wxCommandEvent-derived event classes by default
+    and unlike other wxEvent-derived classes propagate upward from the source
+    window (the window which emits the event) up to the first parent which processes
+    the event. Be sure to read @ref overview_events_propagation.
+
+    More complex controls, such as wxTreeCtrl, have separate command event classes.
+
+    @beginEventTable{wxCommandEvent}
+    @event{EVT_COMMAND(id, event, func)}
+        Process a command, supplying the window identifier, command event identifier,
+        and member function.
+    @event{EVT_COMMAND_RANGE(id1, id2, event, func)}
+        Process a command for a range of window identifiers, supplying the minimum and
+        maximum window identifiers, command event identifier, and member function.
+    @event{EVT_BUTTON(id, func)}
+        Process a @c wxEVT_BUTTON command, which is generated by a wxButton control.

-        Process a wxEVT_COMMAND_MENU_RANGE command, which is generated by a range of menu items.
-    @event{EVT_CONTEXT_MENU(func)}
-        Process the event generated when the user has requested a popup menu to appear by
-        pressing a special keyboard key (under Windows) or by right clicking the mouse.
-    @event{EVT_RADIOBOX(id, func)}
-        Process a wxEVT_COMMAND_RADIOBOX_SELECTED command, which is generated by a wxRadioBox control.

-    idle events.
+    By default, idle events are sent to all windows, including even the hidden
+    ones because they may be shown if some condition is met from their @c
+    wxEVT_IDLE (or related @c wxEVT_UPDATE_UI) handler. The children of hidden
+    windows do not receive idle events however as they can't change their state
+    in any way noticeable by the user. Finally, the global wxApp object also
+    receives these events, as usual, so it can be used for any global idle time
+    processing.
+
+    If sending idle events to all windows is causing a significant overhead in

+    @section sec_delayed_action Delayed Action Mechanism
+
+    wxIdleEvent can be used to perform some action "at slightly later time".
+    This can be necessary in several circumstances when, for whatever reason,
+    something can't be done in the current event handler. For example, if a
+    mouse event handler is called with the mouse button pressed, the mouse can
+    be currently captured and some operations with it -- notably capturing it
+    again -- might be impossible or lead to undesirable results. If you still
+    want to capture it, you can do it from @c wxEVT_IDLE handler when it is
+    called the next time instead of doing it immediately.
+
+    This can be achieved in two different ways: when using static event tables,
+    you will need a flag indicating to the (always connected) idle event
+    handler whether the desired action should be performed. The originally
+    called handler would then set it to indicate that it should indeed be done
+    and the idle handler itself would reset it to prevent it from doing the
+    same action again.
+
+    Using dynamically connected event handlers things are even simpler as the
+    original event handler can simply wxEvtHandler::Connect() or
+    wxEvtHandler::Bind() the idle event handler which would only be executed
+    then and could wxEvtHandler::Disconnect() or wxEvtHandler::Unbind() itself.

-    This event is sent from the wxWindow destructor wxWindow::~wxWindow() when a

+    This event is sent as early as possible during the window destruction
+    process.

 
 

-    When a class derived from wxWindow is destroyed its destructor will have
-    already run by the time this event is sent. Therefore this event will not
-    usually be received at all.
+    For the top level windows, as early as possible means that this is done by
+    wxFrame or wxDialog destructor, i.e. after the destructor of the derived
+    class was executed and so any methods specific to the derived class can't
+    be called any more from this event handler. If you need to do this, you
+    must call wxWindow::SendDestroyEvent() from your derived class destructor.

 
 

-    To receive this event wxEvtHandler::Connect() must be used (using an event
-    table macro will not work). Since it is received after the destructor has run,
-    an object should not handle its own wxWindowDestroyEvent, but it can be used
-    to get notification of the destruction of another window.
+    For the child windows, this event is generated just before deleting the
+    window from wxWindow::Destroy() (which is also called when the parent
+    window is deleted) or from the window destructor if operator @c delete was
+    used directly (which is not recommended for this very reason).
+
+    It is usually pointless to handle this event in the window itself but it ca
+    be very useful to receive notifications about the window destruction in the
+    parent window or in any other object interested in this window.
