\wxheading{Parameters}
\func{}{\destruct{wxBrush}}{\void}
Destructor.
+See \helpref{reference-counted object destruction}{refcountdestruct} for more info.
\wxheading{Remarks}
-The destructor may not delete the underlying brush object of the native windowing
-system, since wxBrush uses a reference counting system for efficiency.
-
Although all remaining brushes are deleted when the application exits,
the application should try to clean up all brushes itself. This is because
wxWidgets cannot know if a pointer to the brush object is stored in an
\constfunc{wxBitmap *}{GetStipple}{\void}
Gets a pointer to the stipple bitmap. If the brush does not have a wxSTIPPLE style,
-this bitmap may be non-NULL but uninitialised (\helpref{wxBitmap::Ok}{wxbitmapok} returns false).

+\constfunc{bool}{IsOk}{\void}
Returns true if the brush is initialised. It will return false if the default

Sets the brush colour using a colour name from the colour database.

Sets the brush colour using red, green and blue values.

-Assignment operator, using reference counting. Returns a reference
-to `this'.

\func{bool}{operator $==$}{\param{const wxBrush\& }{brush}}
-Equality operator. Two brushes are equal if they contain pointers
