This function returns the translation of string {\it str} in the current
\helpref{locale}{wxlocale}. If the string is not found in any of the loaded
message catalogs (see \helpref{internationalization overview}{internationalization}), the
provided: the \helpref{\_()}{underscore} macro is defined to do the same thing
as wxGetTranslation.
+The second form is used when retrieving translation of string that has
+different singular and plural form in English or different plural forms in some
+other language. It takes two extra arguments: \arg{str}
+parameter must contain the singular form of the string to be converted.
+It is also used as the key for the search in the catalog.
+The \arg{strPlural} parameter is the plural form (in English).
+The parameter \arg{n} is used to determine the plural form. If no
+message catalog is found \arg{str} is returned if `n == 1',
+otherwise \arg{strPlural}. The \helpref{ngettext}{ngettext} macro is defined
+to do the same thing.
+See \urlref{GNU gettext manual}{http://www.gnu.org/manual/gettext/html\_chapter/gettext\_10.html\#SEC150} for additional information on plural forms handling.

+
\membersection{wxCHECK}\label{wxcheck}
\func{}{wxCHECK}{\param{}{condition}, \param{}{retValue}}
Checks that the condition is true, returns with the given return value if not (FAILs in debug mode).
This check is done even in release mode.
+
\membersection{wxCHECK\_MSG}\label{wxcheckmsg}
\func{}{wxCHECK\_MSG}{\param{}{condition}, \param{}{retValue}, \param{}{msg}}
This macro may be only used in non void functions, see also
\helpref{wxCHECK\_RET}{wxcheckret}.
+
\membersection{wxCHECK\_RET}\label{wxcheckret}
\func{}{wxCHECK\_RET}{\param{}{condition}, \param{}{msg}}
This macro should be used in void functions instead of
\helpref{wxCHECK\_MSG}{wxcheckmsg}.
+
\membersection{wxCHECK2}\label{wxcheck2}
\func{}{wxCHECK2}{\param{}{condition}, \param{}{operation}}
This check is done even in release mode.
+
\membersection{wxCHECK2\_MSG}\label{wxcheck2msg}
\func{}{wxCHECK2}{\param{}{condition}, \param{}{operation}, \param{}{msg}}
\helpref{wxFAIL\_MSG}{wxfailmsg} with the specified {\it msg} is called
instead of wxFAIL() if the {\it condition} is false.
+
\membersection{::wxTrap}\label{wxtrap}
\func{void}{wxTrap}{\void}
<wx/debug.h>
+
\membersection{::wxIsDebuggerRunning}\label{wxisdebuggerrunning}
\func{bool}{wxIsDebuggerRunning}{\void}
using CodeWarrior and always returns {\tt false} elsewhere.

+
\section{Environment access functions}\label{environfunctions}
The functions in this section allow to access (get) or change value of
<wx/utils.h>
+
\membersection{wxGetenv}\label{wxgetenvmacro}
\func{wxChar *}{wxGetEnv}{\param{const wxString\&}{ var}}
with \helpref{wxSetEnv}{wxsetenv}, use \helpref{wxGetEnv}{wxgetenv} function
instead.
+
\membersection{wxGetEnv}\label{wxgetenv}
\func{bool}{wxGetEnv}{\param{const wxString\&}{ var}, \param{wxString *}{value}}
Returns {\tt true} if the variable exists, {\tt false} otherwise.
+
\membersection{wxSetEnv}\label{wxsetenv}
\func{bool}{wxSetEnv}{\param{const wxString\&}{ var}, \param{const wxChar *}{value}}
Returns {\tt true} on success.
+
\membersection{wxUnsetEnv}\label{wxunsetenv}
\func{bool}{wxUnsetEnv}{\param{const wxString\&}{ var}}
