+a boolean determining whether the event was a selection (true) or a
+deselection (false). A listbox deselection only occurs for
multiple-selection boxes, and in this case the index and string values
are indeterminate and the listbox must be examined by the application.

-Returns TRUE or FALSE for a checkbox selection event.
+Deprecated, use \helpref{IsChecked}{wxcommandeventischecked} instead.

Returns client data pointer for a listbox or choice selection event
(not valid for a deselection).

+
+\constfunc{bool}{IsChecked}{\void}
+
+This method can be used with checkbox and menu events: for the checkboxes, the

+just has become checked or unchecked (and thus only makes sense for checkable
+menu items).

+\func{void}{SetClientData}{\param{void*}{ clientData}}
Sets the client data for this event.
+\membersection{wxCommandEvent::SetClientObject}
+
+\func{void}{SetClientObject}{\param{wxClientData*}{ clientObject}}
+
+Sets the client object for this event. The client object is \emph{not} owned by the event

+The client object must be owned and deleted by another object (e.g. a control)
