\section{\class{wxArtProvider}}\label{wxartprovider}
wxArtProvider class is used to customize the look of wxWidgets application.
-When wxWidgets need to display an icon or a bitmap (e.g. in the standard file
-dialog), it does not use hard-coded resource but asks wxArtProvider for it
-instead. This way the users can plug in own wxArtProvider class and easily
-replace standard art with his/her own version. It is easy thing to do: all
-that is needed is to derive a class from wxArtProvider, override it's

\helpref{CreateBitmap}{wxartprovidercreatebitmap} method and register the
provider with
-\helpref{wxArtProvider::PushProvider}{wxartproviderpushprovider}:
+\helpref{wxArtProvider::Push}{wxartproviderpush}:
\begin{verbatim}
class MyProvider : public wxArtProvider
{ ... }
};
...
- wxArtProvider::PushProvider(new MyProvider);
+ wxArtProvider::Push(new MyProvider);
\end{verbatim}
There's another way of taking advantage of this class: you can use it in your code and use
-platform native icons as provided by
-\helpref{wxArtProvider::GetBitmap}{wxartprovidergetbitmap} or
+platform native icons as provided by \helpref{wxArtProvider::GetBitmap}{wxartprovidergetbitmap} or
\helpref{wxArtProvider::GetIcon}{wxartprovidergeticon} (NB: this is not yet really
possible as of wxWidgets 2.3.3, the set of wxArtProvider bitmaps is too
small).

Every bitmap is known to wxArtProvider under an unique ID that is used by when
requesting a resource from it. The ID is represented by wxArtID type and can
\item wxART\_MISSING\_IMAGE
\end{itemize}
-Additionally, any string recognized by custom art providers registered using

icons, so wxArtProvider may return {\tt wxNullBitmap} or {\tt wxNullIcon}.
Default theme is typically installed in {\tt /usr/share/icons/hicolor}.

Client is the entity that calls wxArtProvider's GetBitmap or GetIcon
function. It is represented by wxClientID type and can have one of these

+\membersection{wxArtProvider::\destruct{wxArtProvider}}\label{wxartproviderdtor}
+
+\func{}{\destruct{wxArtProvider}}{\void}
+
+The destructor automatically removes the provider from the provider stack used
+by \helpref{GetBitmap}{wxartprovidergetbitmap}.
+
+
\membersection{wxArtProvider::CreateBitmap}\label{wxartprovidercreatebitmap}
\func{wxBitmap}{CreateBitmap}{\param{const wxArtID\& }{id}, \param{const wxArtClient\& }{client}, \param{const wxSize\& }{size}}
Derived art provider classes must override this method to create requested
art resource. Note that returned bitmaps are cached by wxArtProvider and it is therefore
-not neccessary to optimize CreateBitmap for speed (e.g. you may create wxBitmap objects

from XPMs here).
\wxheading{Parameters}
\docparam{client}{wxArtClient identifier of the client (i.e. who is asking for the bitmap).
This only servers as a hint.}
-\docparam{size}{Prefered size of the bitmap. The function may return a bitmap of different

dimensions, it will be automatically rescaled to meet client's request.}

to query wxArtProvider for a resource.
+
+\membersection{wxArtProvider::Delete}\label{wxartproviderdelete}
+
+\func{static bool}{Delete}{\param{wxArtProvider* }{provider}}
+
+Delete the given \arg{provider}.
+
+
\membersection{wxArtProvider::GetBitmap}\label{wxartprovidergetbitmap}
\func{static wxBitmap}{GetBitmap}{\param{const wxArtID\& }{id}, \param{const wxArtClient\& }{client = wxART\_OTHER}, \param{const wxSize\& }{size = wxDefaultSize}}
The bitmap if one of registered providers recognizes the ID or wxNullBitmap otherwise.

\membersection{wxArtProvider::GetIcon}\label{wxartprovidergeticon}
\func{static wxIcon}{GetIcon}{\param{const wxArtID\& }{id}, \param{const wxArtClient\& }{client = wxART\_OTHER}, \param{const wxSize\& }{size = wxDefaultSize}}
Same as \helpref{wxArtProvider::GetBitmap}{wxartprovidergetbitmap}, but
return a wxIcon object (or wxNullIcon on failure).
-\membersection{wxArtProvider::PopProvider}\label{wxartproviderpopprovider}
+\func{static wxSize}{GetSizeHint}{\param{const wxArtClient\& }{client}, \param{bool }{platform\_default = false}}
+
+Returns a suitable size hint for the given {\it wxArtClient}. If
+{\it platform\_default} is \true, return a size based on the current platform,
+otherwise return the size from the topmost wxArtProvider. {\it wxDefaultSize} may be
+returned if the client doesn't have a specified size, like wxART\_OTHER for example.
-\func{static bool}{PopProvider}{\void}
+
+\membersection{wxArtProvider::Insert}\label{wxartproviderinsert}
+
+\func{static void}{Insert}{\param{wxArtProvider* }{provider}}
+
+Register new art provider and add it to the bottom of providers stack (i.e.
+it will be queried as the last one).
+

+
+
+\membersection{wxArtProvider::Pop}\label{wxartproviderctor}
+
+\func{static bool}{Pop}{\void}
Remove latest added provider and delete it.
-\membersection{wxArtProvider::PushProvider}\label{wxartproviderpushprovider}
-\func{static void}{PushProvider}{\param{wxArtProvider* }{provider}}
+\membersection{wxArtProvider::Push}\label{wxartproviderpush}
+
+\func{static void}{Push}{\param{wxArtProvider* }{provider}}
+
+Register new art provider and add it to the top of providers stack (i.e. it
+will be queried as the first provider).
+
+\wxheading{See also}
+
+\helpref{Insert}{wxartproviderinsert}
-Register new art provider (add it to the top of providers stack).

+\membersection{wxArtProvider::Remove}\label{wxartproviderremove}
-\func{static bool}{RemoveProvider}{\param{wxArtProvider* }{provider}}
+\func{static bool}{Remove}{\param{wxArtProvider* }{provider}}
-Remove a provider from the stack. The provider must have been added previously
-and is {\it not} deleted.
+Remove a provider from the stack if it is on it. The provider is {\emph not}
