to be type safe and to provide the full API of the STL std::list container and
should be used like it. The exception is that wxList<T> actually stores
pointers and therefore its iterators return pointers and not references
-to the actual objets in the list (see example below). Unfortunately, the
+to the actual objets in the list (see example below) and {\it value\_type}
+is defined as {\it T*}.
+
+
+Unfortunately, the
new wxList<T> class requires that you declare and define each wxList<T>
class in your program. This is done with {\it WX\_DECLARE\_LIST} and
{\it WX\_DEFINE\_LIST} macros (see example). We hope that we'll be able
and the old wxList API in the future.
Please refer to the STL std::list documentation for further
-information on how to use the class. Below we documented the legacy
-API that originated from the old wxList class and which can still
-be used alternatively for the the same class.

Note that if you compile wxWidgets in STL mode (wxUSE\_STL defined as 1)
then wxList<T> will actually derive from std::list and just add a legacy
