+ MSW-specific function to customize application directory detection.
+
+ This class supposes that data, plugins &c files are located under the
+ program directory which is the directory containing the application
+ binary itself. But sometimes this binary may be in a subdirectory of
+ the main program directory, e.g. this happens in at least the following
+ common cases:
+ - The program is in "bin" subdirectory of the installation directory.
+ - The program is in "debug" subdirectory of the directory containing
+ sources and data files during development
+
+ By calling this function you instruct the class to remove the last
+ component of the path if it matches its argument. Notice that it may be
+ called more than once, e.g. you can call both IgnoreAppSubDir("bin") and
+ IgnoreAppSubDir("debug") to take care of both production and development
+ cases above but that each call will only remove the last path component.
+ Finally note that the argument can contain wild cards so you can also
+ call IgnoreAppSubDir("vc*msw*") to ignore all build directories at once
+ when using wxWidgets-inspired output directories names.
+
+ @since 2.9.1

+ @see IgnoreAppBuildSubDirs()

+ @param subdirPattern
+ The subdirectory containing the application binary which should be
+ ignored when determining the top application directory. The pattern
+ is case-insensitive and may contain wild card characters @c '?' and
+ @c '*'.
