The program may also wish to be notified about the change in the connection
status (for example, to perform some action when the user connects to the
- network the next time or, on the contrary, to stop receiving data from the net
- when the user hangs up the modem). For this, you need to use one of the event
- macros described below.
-
- This class is different from other wxWidgets classes in that there is at most
- one instance of this class in the program accessed via
- wxDialUpManager::Create and you can't
- create the objects of this class directly.
