\section{Byte order macros}\label{byteordermacros}
Used inside a class declaration to make the class known to wxWidgets RTTI
system and also declare that the objects of this class should be dynamically
creatable from run-time type information. Notice that this implies that the
-class should have a default constructor, if this is not the case consider using
+class should have a default constructor, if this is not the case consider using
\helpref{DECLARE\_CLASS}{declareclass}.
Example:
This macro is equivalent to {\tt wxDynamicCast(this, classname)} but the
latter provokes spurious compilation warnings from some compilers (because it
-tests whether {\tt this} pointer is non {\tt NULL} which is always true), so
+tests whether {\tt this} pointer is non-{\tt NULL} which is always true), so
this macro should be used to avoid them.

This function is called whenever one of debugging macros fails (i.e. condition
is false in an assertion). It is only defined in the debug mode, in release
To override the default behaviour in the debug builds which is to show the user
a dialog asking whether he wants to abort the program, continue or continue
ignoring any subsequent assert failures, you may override
-\helpref{wxApp::OnAssert}{wxapponassert} which is called by this function if
+\helpref{wxApp::OnAssertFailure}{wxapponassertfailure} which is called by this function if
the global application object exists.
Checks that the condition is true, returns with the given return value if not (FAILs in debug mode).
This check is done even in release mode.
