instead. This way users can plug in their own wxArtProvider class and easily
replace standard art with their own version. All

There's another way of taking advantage of this class: you can use it in your code and use
platform native icons as provided by \helpref{wxArtProvider::GetBitmap}{wxartprovidergetbitmap} or
\helpref{wxArtProvider::GetIcon}{wxartprovidergeticon} (NB: this is not yet really

requesting a resource from it. The ID is represented by wxArtID type and can
have one of these predefined values (you can see bitmaps represented by these
