/**
wxHeaderCtrl is the control containing the column headings which is usually
used for display of tabular data.
- It is used as part of wxGrid, in wxDataViewCtrl and in the report view of
- wxListCtrl but can be also used independently.
- In general this class is meant to be used as part of another
- control which already stores the column information somewhere as it can't
- be used directly: instead you need to inherit from it and implement the
- GetColumn() method to provide column information. See wxHeaderCtrlSimple
- for a concrete control class which can be used directly.

In addition to labeling the columns, the control has the following
features:
@style{wxHD_ALLOW_REORDER}
If this style is specified (it is by default), the user can reorder
the control columns by dragging them.
+ @style{wxHD_ALLOW_HIDE}
+ If this style is specified, the control shows a popup menu allowing the
+ user to change the columns visibility on right mouse click. Notice that
+ the program can always hide or show the columns, this style only
+ affects the users capability to do it.
@style{wxHD_DEFAULT_STYLE}
Symbolic name for the default control style, currently equal to
@c wxHD_ALLOW_REORDER.
@endStyleTable
- @beginEventTable{wxHeaderCtrlEvent}
+ @beginEventEmissionTable{wxHeaderCtrlEvent}
@event{EVT_HEADER_CLICK(id, func)}
A column heading was clicked.
@event{EVT_HEADER_RIGHT_CLICK(id, func)}
