\membersection{wxString::c\_str}\label{wxstringcstr}
-\constfunc{const char *}{c\_str}{\void}
+\constfunc{const wxChar *}{c\_str}{\void}
Returns a pointer to the string data ({\tt const char*} in ANSI build,
{\tt const wchar\_t*} in Unicode build).
\membersection{wxString::Cmp}\label{wxstringcmp}
+\constfunc{int}{Cmp}{\param{const wxString\&}{ s}}
+
\constfunc{int}{Cmp}{\param{const char*}{ psz}}
Case-sensitive comparison.
\membersection{wxString::CmpNoCase}\label{wxstringcmpnocase}
+\constfunc{int}{CmpNoCase}{\param{const wxString\&}{ s}}
+
\constfunc{int}{CmpNoCase}{\param{const char*}{ psz}}
Case-insensitive comparison.
Returns string representation suitable for passing to OS' functions for
file handling. In ANSI build, this is same as \helpref{c\_str}{wxstringcstr}.
In Unicode build, returned value can be either wide character string
-or C string in charset matching the {\tt wxConvFile} object, depending on
+or C string in charset matching the {\tt wxConvFileName} object, depending on
the OS.

-\func{static wxString}{Format}{\param{const wxChar }{*format}, \param{va\_list }{argptr}}
+\func{static wxString}{FormatV}{\param{const wxChar }{*format}, \param{va\_list }{argptr}}
This static function returns the string containing the result of calling
\helpref{PrintfV}{wxstringprintfv} with the passed parameters on it.
\membersection{wxString::GetData}\label{wxstringgetdata}
-\constfunc{const char*}{GetData}{\void}
+\constfunc{const wxChar*}{GetData}{\void}
wxWidgets compatibility conversion. Returns a constant pointer to the data in the string.
\func{wxString\&}{Remove}{\param{size\_t}{ pos}, \param{size\_t}{ len}}
-Removes the {\it len} characters from the string, starting at {\it pos}.
+Removes {\it len} characters from the string, starting at {\it pos}.

-Attempts to convert the string to a unsigned integer in base {\it base}.
+Attempts to convert the string to an unsigned integer in base {\it base}.
Returns {\tt true} on success in which case the number is stored in the
location pointed to by {\it val} or {\tt false} if the string does not

+represent a valid number in the given base. Please notice that this function

+(e.g. $-1$ is returned as \texttt{ULONG\_MAX}).
See \helpref{wxString::ToLong}{wxstringtolong} for the more detailed
description of the {\it base} parameter.
