-This is the root class of all wxWindows classes.
+This is the root class of all wxWidgets classes.
It declares a virtual destructor which ensures that
destructors get called for all derived class objects where necessary.

and deallocation problems.

+Currently wxWidgets does not define Dump for derived classes, but
programmers may wish to use it for their own applications. Be sure to
call the Dump member of the class's base class to allow all information to be
dumped.
\wxheading{Return value}
-TRUE if the class represented by {\it info} is the same class as
+true if the class represented by {\it info} is the same class as
this one or is derived from it.
\wxheading{Example}
bool tmp = obj->IsKindOf(CLASSINFO(wxFrame));

+\membersection{wxObject::IsSameAs}\label{wxobjectissameas}
+
+\func{bool}{IsSameAs}{\param{const wxObject\& }{ obj}}
+
+Returns \true if this object has the same data pointer as \arg{obj}. Notice
+that \true is returned if the data pointers are \NULL in both objects.
+
+This function only does a \emph{shallow} comparison, i.e. it doesn't compare
+the objects pointed to by the data pointers of these objects.

+
+\func{void}{UnShare}{\void}
+
+Ensure that this object's data is not shared with any other object.
+
+if we have no
+data, it is created using CreateRefData() below, if we have shared data
+it is copied using CloneRefData(), otherwise nothing is done.

-\membersection{wxObjectRefData::wxObjectRefData}\label{wxobjectrefdataconstr}
