The objects of this class are used in conjunction with the
- wxExecute function. When a wxProcess object is passed to
+ wxExecute() function. When a wxProcess object is passed to
wxExecute(), its wxProcess::OnTerminate virtual method
is called when the process terminates. This allows the program to be
(asynchronously) notified about the process termination and also retrieve its
wxProcess also supports IO redirection of the child process. For this, you have
to call its wxProcess::Redirect method before passing it to
- wxExecute. If the child process was launched successfully,
+ wxExecute(). If the child process was launched successfully,
wxProcess::GetInputStream,
wxProcess::GetOutputStream and
wxProcess::GetErrorStream can then be used to retrieve
