+ @class wxInputStream
+
+ wxInputStream is an abstract base class which may not be used directly.
+ It is the base class of all streams which provide a Read() function,
+ i.e. which can be used to read data from a source (e.g. a file, a socket, etc).
+
+ If you want to create your own input stream, you'll need to derive from this
+ class and implement the protected OnSysRead() function only.
