\section{\class{wxVListBox}}\label{wxvlistbox}
wxVListBox is a listbox-like control with the following two main differences
from a regular listbox: it can have an arbitrarily huge number of items because
-it doesn't store them itself but uses \helpref{OnDrawItem()}{wxvlistboxondrawitem}

\helpref{OnMeasureItem()}{wxvlistboxonmeasureitem} (so it is also a listbox
with the lines of {\Large V}ariable height).
However it emits the same events as \helpref{wxListBox}{wxlistbox} and the same
event macros may be used with it.
