Creates a bitmap from the given data which is interpreted in platform-dependent
manner.

an alpha channel is supported under MSW, Mac and GTK+.

\func{}{\destruct{wxBitmap}}{\void}
-Destroys the wxBitmap object and possibly the underlying bitmap data.
-Because reference counting is used, the bitmap may not actually be

+Destructor.
+See \helpref{reference-counted object destruction}{refcountdestruct} for more info.
If the application omits to delete the bitmap explicitly, the bitmap will be
destroyed automatically by wxWidgets when the application exits.
Creates a fresh bitmap. If the final argument is omitted, the display depth of
the screen is used.
