+ @class wxDataFormat
+
+ A wxDataFormat is an encapsulation of a platform-specific format handle
+ which is used by the system for the clipboard and drag and drop operations.
+ The applications are usually only interested in, for example, pasting data
+ from the clipboard only if the data is in a format the program understands
+ and a data format is something which uniquely identifies this format.
+
+ On the system level, a data format is usually just a number (@c CLIPFORMAT
+ under Windows or @c Atom under X11, for example) and the standard formats
+ are, indeed, just numbers which can be implicitly converted to wxDataFormat.
+ The standard formats are:
+
+ @beginDefList
+ @itemdef{wxDF_INVALID,
+ An invalid format - used as default argument for functions taking
+ a wxDataFormat argument sometimes.}
+ @itemdef{wxDF_TEXT,
+ Text format (wxString).}
+ @itemdef{wxDF_BITMAP,
+ A bitmap (wxBitmap).}
+ @itemdef{wxDF_METAFILE,
+ A metafile (wxMetafile, Windows only).}
+ @itemdef{wxDF_FILENAME,
+ A list of filenames.}
+ @itemdef{wxDF_HTML,
+ An HTML string. This is currently only valid on Mac and MSW.}
+ @endDefList
+
+ As mentioned above, these standard formats may be passed to any function
+ taking wxDataFormat argument because wxDataFormat has an implicit
+ conversion from them (or, to be precise from the type
+ @c wxDataFormat::NativeFormat which is the type used by the underlying
+ platform for data formats).
+
+ Aside the standard formats, the application may also use custom formats
+ which are identified by their names (strings) and not numeric identifiers.
+ Although internally custom format must be created (or @e registered) first,
+ you shouldn't care about it because it is done automatically the first time
+ the wxDataFormat object corresponding to a given format name is created.
+ The only implication of this is that you should avoid having global
+ wxDataFormat objects with non-default constructor because their
+ constructors are executed before the program has time to perform all
+ necessary initialisations and so an attempt to do clipboard format
+ registration at this time will usually lead to a crash!

+/**
+ @class wxDataObject
+
+ A wxDataObject represents data that can be copied to or from the clipboard,
+ or dragged and dropped. The important thing about wxDataObject is that this
+ is a 'smart' piece of data unlike 'dumb' data containers such as memory
+ buffers or files. Being 'smart' here means that the data object itself
+ should know what data formats it supports and how to render itself in each
+ of its supported formats.
+
+ A supported format, incidentally, is exactly the format in which the data
+ can be requested from a data object or from which the data object may be
+ set. In the general case, an object may support different formats on
+ 'input' and 'output', i.e. it may be able to render itself in a given
+ format but not be created from data on this format or vice versa.
+ wxDataObject defines the wxDataObject::Direction enumeration type which
+ distinguishes between them.
+
+ See wxDataFormat documentation for more about formats.
+
+ Not surprisingly, being 'smart' comes at a price of added complexity. This
+ is reasonable for the situations when you really need to support multiple
+ formats, but may be annoying if you only want to do something simple like
+ cut and paste text.
+
+ To provide a solution for both cases, wxWidgets has two predefined classes
+ which derive from wxDataObject: wxDataObjectSimple and
+ wxDataObjectComposite. wxDataObjectSimple is the simplest wxDataObject
+ possible and only holds data in a single format (such as HTML or text) and
+ wxDataObjectComposite is the simplest way to implement a wxDataObject that
+ does support multiple formats because it achieves this by simply holding
+ several wxDataObjectSimple objects.
+
+ So, you have several solutions when you need a wxDataObject class (and you
+ need one as soon as you want to transfer data via the clipboard or drag and
+ drop):
+
+ -# Use one of the built-in classes.
+ - You may use wxTextDataObject, wxBitmapDataObject wxFileDataObject,
+ wxURLDataObject in the simplest cases when you only need to support
+ one format and your data is either text, bitmap or list of files.
+ -# Use wxDataObjectSimple
+ - Deriving from wxDataObjectSimple is the simplest solution for custom
+ data - you will only support one format and so probably won't be able
+ to communicate with other programs, but data transfer will work in
+ your program (or between different instances of it).
+ -# Use wxDataObjectComposite
+ - This is a simple but powerful solution which allows you to support
+ any number of formats (either standard or custom if you combine it
+ with the previous solution).
+ -# Use wxDataObject directly
+ - This is the solution for maximum flexibility and efficiency, but it
+ is also the most difficult to implement.
+
+ Please note that the easiest way to use drag and drop and the clipboard
+ with multiple formats is by using wxDataObjectComposite, but it is not the
+ most efficient one as each wxDataObjectSimple would contain the whole data
+ in its respective formats. Now imagine that you want to paste 200 pages of
+ text in your proprietary format, as well as Word, RTF, HTML, Unicode and
+ plain text to the clipboard and even today's computers are in trouble. For
+ this case, you will have to derive from wxDataObject directly and make it
+ enumerate its formats and provide the data in the requested format on
+ demand.
+
+ Note that neither the GTK+ data transfer mechanisms for clipboard and drag
+ and drop, nor OLE data transfer, @e copies any data until another application
+ actually requests the data. This is in contrast to the 'feel' offered to
+ the user of a program who would normally think that the data resides in the
+ clipboard after having pressed 'Copy' - in reality it is only declared to
+ be @e available.
+
+ You may also derive your own data object classes from wxCustomDataObject
+ for user-defined types. The format of user-defined data is given as a
+ mime-type string literal, such as "application/word" or "image/png". These
+ strings are used as they are under Unix (so far only GTK+) to identify a
+ format and are translated into their Windows equivalent under Win32 (using
+ the OLE IDataObject for data exchange to and from the clipboard and for
+ drag and drop). Note that the format string translation under Windows is
+ not yet finished.
+
+ Each class derived directly from wxDataObject must override and implement
+ all of its functions which are pure virtual in the base class. The data
+ objects which only render their data or only set it (i.e. work in only one
+ direction), should return 0 from GetFormatCount().
