+ while the event will be processed at some later time (usually during

+ fields of this object are used by it, notably any wxString members of
+ the event object must not be shallow copies of another wxString object
+ as this would result in them still using the same string buffer behind
+ the scenes. For example:
+ @code
+ void FunctionInAWorkerThread(const wxString& str)

+
+ // wxThreadEvent::Clone() makes sure that the internal wxString
+ // member is not shared by other wxString instances:
+ wxTheApp->QueueEvent( evt.Clone() );

+ that it didn't handle the event in which case the search continues.

+ @class wxIdleEvent
+
+ This class is used for idle events, which are generated when the system becomes
+ idle. Note that, unless you do something specifically, the idle events are not
+ sent if the system remains idle once it has become it, e.g. only a single idle
+ event will be generated until something else resulting in more normal events
+ happens and only then is the next idle event sent again.
+
+ If you need to ensure a continuous stream of idle events, you can either use
+ wxIdleEvent::RequestMore method in your handler or call wxWakeUpIdle() periodically
+ (for example from a timer event handler), but note that both of these approaches
+ (and especially the first one) increase the system load and so should be avoided
+ if possible.
+
+ By default, idle events are sent to all windows, including even the hidden
+ ones because they may be shown if some condition is met from their @c
+ wxEVT_IDLE (or related @c wxEVT_UPDATE_UI) handler. The children of hidden
+ windows do not receive idle events however as they can't change their state
+ in any way noticeable by the user. Finally, the global wxApp object also
+ receives these events, as usual, so it can be used for any global idle time
+ processing.
+
+ If sending idle events to all windows is causing a significant overhead in
+ your application, you can call wxIdleEvent::SetMode with the value
+ wxIDLE_PROCESS_SPECIFIED, and set the wxWS_EX_PROCESS_IDLE extra window
+ style for every window which should receive idle events, all the other ones

+ @section sec_delayed_action Delayed Action Mechanism
+
+ wxIdleEvent can be used to perform some action "at slightly later time".
+ This can be necessary in several circumstances when, for whatever reason,
+ something can't be done in the current event handler. For example, if a
+ mouse event handler is called with the mouse button pressed, the mouse can
+ be currently captured and some operations with it -- notably capturing it
+ again -- might be impossible or lead to undesirable results. If you still
+ want to capture it, you can do it from @c wxEVT_IDLE handler when it is
+ called the next time instead of doing it immediately.
+
+ This can be achieved in two different ways: when using static event tables,
+ you will need a flag indicating to the (always connected) idle event
+ handler whether the desired action should be performed. The originally
+ called handler would then set it to indicate that it should indeed be done
+ and the idle handler itself would reset it to prevent it from doing the
+ same action again.
+
+ Using dynamically connected event handlers things are even simpler as the
+ original event handler can simply wxEvtHandler::Connect() or
+ wxEvtHandler::Bind() the idle event handler which would only be executed
+ then and could wxEvtHandler::Disconnect() or wxEvtHandler::Unbind() itself.
