\section{Version macros}\label{versionfunctions}
\begin{itemize}\itemsep=0pt
\item {\tt wxMAJOR\_VERSION} is the major version of wxWindows
\item {\tt wxMINOR\_VERSION} is the minor version of wxWindows
-\item {\tt wxRELASE\_NUMBER} is the release number
+\item {\tt wxRELEASE\_NUMBER} is the release number
\end{itemize}
For example, the values or these constants for wxWindows 2.1.15 are 2, 1 and
}
\end{verbatim}
+\section{Application initialization and termination}\label{appinifunctions}
+
+The functions in this section are used on application startup/shutdown and also
+to control the behaviour of the main event loop of the GUI programs.
+
+\membersection{::wxEntry}\label{wxentry}
+
+This initializes wxWindows in a platform-dependent way. Use this if you
+are not using the default wxWindows entry code (e.g. main or WinMain). For example,
+you can initialize wxWindows from an Microsoft Foundation Classes application using
+this function.
+
+\func{void}{wxEntry}{\param{HANDLE}{ hInstance}, \param{HANDLE}{ hPrevInstance},
+ \param{const wxString\& }{commandLine}, \param{int}{ cmdShow}, \param{bool}{ enterLoop = TRUE}}
+
+wxWindows initialization under Windows (non-DLL). If {\it enterLoop} is FALSE, the
+function will return immediately after calling wxApp::OnInit. Otherwise, the wxWindows
+message loop will be entered.
+
+\func{void}{wxEntry}{\param{HANDLE}{ hInstance}, \param{HANDLE}{ hPrevInstance},
+ \param{WORD}{ wDataSegment}, \param{WORD}{ wHeapSize}, \param{const wxString\& }{ commandLine}}
+
+wxWindows initialization under Windows (for applications constructed as a DLL).
+
+\func{int}{wxEntry}{\param{int}{ argc}, \param{const wxString\& *}{argv}}
+
+wxWindows initialization under Unix.
+
+\wxheading{Remarks}
+
+To clean up wxWindows, call wxApp::OnExit followed by the static function
+wxApp::CleanUp. For example, if exiting from an MFC application that also uses wxWindows:
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+int CTheApp::ExitInstance()
+{
+ // OnExit isn't called by CleanUp so must be called explicitly.
+ wxTheApp->OnExit();
+ wxApp::CleanUp();
+
+ return CWinApp::ExitInstance();
+}
+\end{verbatim}
+

+
+\membersection{::wxHandleFatalExceptions}\label{wxhandlefatalexceptions}
+
+\func{bool}{wxHandleFatalExceptions}{\param{bool}{ doIt = TRUE}}
+
+If {\it doIt} is TRUE, the fatal exceptions (also known as general protection
+faults under Windows or segmentation violations in the Unix world) will be
+caught and passed to \helpref{wxApp::OnFatalException}{wxapponfatalexception}.
+By default, i.e. before this function is called, they will be handled in the
+normal way which usually just means that the application will be terminated.
+Calling wxHandleFatalExceptions() with {\it doIt} equal to FALSE will restore
+this default behaviour.
+
+\membersection{::wxInitAllImageHandlers}\label{wxinitallimagehandlers}
+
+\func{void}{wxInitAllImageHandlers}{\void}
+
+Initializes all available image handlers. For a list of available handlers,
+see \helpref{wxImage}{wximage}.

+
+\membersection{::wxInitialize}\label{wxinitialize}
+
+\func{bool}{wxInitialize}{\void}
+
+This function is used in wxBase only and only if you don't create
+\helpref{wxApp}{wxapp} object at all. In this case you must call it from your
+{\tt main()} function before calling any other wxWindows functions.
+
+If the function returns {\tt FALSE} the initialization could not be performed,
+in this case the library cannot be used and
+\helpref{wxUninitialize}{wxuninitialize} shouldn't be called neither.
+
+This function may be called several times but
+\helpref{wxUninitialize}{wxuninitialize} must be called for each successful
+call to this function.
+
+\wxheading{Include files}
+
+<wx/app.h>
+
+\membersection{::wxSafeYield}\label{wxsafeyield}
+
+\func{bool}{wxSafeYield}{\param{wxWindow*}{ win = NULL}}
+
+This function is similar to wxYield, except that it disables the user input to
+all program windows before calling wxYield and re-enables it again
+afterwards. If {\it win} is not NULL, this window will remain enabled,
+allowing the implementation of some limited user interaction.
+
+Returns the result of the call to \helpref{::wxYield}{wxyield}.
+
+\wxheading{Include files}
+
+<wx/utils.h>
+
+\membersection{::wxUninitialize}\label{wxuninitialize}
+
+\func{void}{wxUninitialize}{\void}
+
+This function is for use in console (wxBase) programs only. It must be called
+once for each previous successful call to \helpref{wxInitialize}{wxinitialize}.
+
+\wxheading{Include files}
+
+<wx/app.h>
+
+\membersection{::wxYield}\label{wxyield}
+
+\func{bool}{wxYield}{\void}
+
+Calls \helpref{wxApp::Yield}{wxappyield}.
+
+This function is kept only for backwards compatibility, please use
+\helpref{wxApp::Yield}{wxappyield}method instead in any new code.

+<wx/app.h> or <wx/utils.h>
+
+\membersection{::wxWakeUpIdle}\label{wxwakeupidle}
+
+\func{void}{wxWakeUpIdle}{\void}
+
+This functions wakes up the (internal and platform dependent) idle system, i.e. it
+will force the system to send an idle event even if the system currently {\it is}
+ idle and thus would not send any idle event until after some other event would get
+sent. This is also useful for sending events between two threads and is used by
+the corresponding functions \helpref{::wxPostEvent}{wxpostevent} and
+\helpref{wxEvtHandler::AddPendingEvent}{wxevthandleraddpendingevent}.
+
+\wxheading{Include files}
+
+<wx/app.h>
+
+\section{Process control functions}\label{processfunctions}
+
+The functions in this section are used to launch or terminate the other
+processes.
+
+\membersection{::wxExecute}\label{wxexecute}
+
+\func{long}{wxExecute}{\param{const wxString\& }{command}, \param{bool }{sync = FALSE}, \param{wxProcess *}{callback = NULL}}
+
+\func{long}{wxExecute}{\param{char **}{argv}, \param{bool }{sync = FALSE}, \param{wxProcess *}{callback = NULL}}
+
+\func{long}{wxExecute}{\param{const wxString\& }{command}, \param{wxArrayString\& }{output}}
+
+\perlnote{In wxPerl this function only takes the {\tt command} argument,
+and returns a 2-element list {\tt ( status, output )}, where {\tt output} is
+an array reference.}
+
+\func{long}{wxExecute}{\param{const wxString\& }{command}, \param{wxArrayString\& }{output}, \param{wxArrayString\& }{errors}}
+
+\perlnote{In wxPerl this function only takes the {\tt command} argument,
+and returns a 3-element list {\tt ( status, output, errors )}, where
+{\tt output} and {\tt errors} are array references.}
+
+Executes another program in Unix or Windows.
+
+The first form takes a command string, such as {\tt "emacs file.txt"}.
+
+The second form takes an array of values: a command, any number of
+arguments, terminated by NULL.
+
+The semantics of the third and fourth versions is different from the first two
+and is described in more details below.
+
+If {\it sync} is FALSE (the default), flow of control immediately returns.
+If TRUE, the current application waits until the other program has terminated.
+
+In the case of synchronous execution, the return value is the exit code of
+the process (which terminates by the moment the function returns) and will be
+$-1$ if the process couldn't be started and typically 0 if the process
+terminated successfully. Also, while waiting for the process to
+terminate, wxExecute will call \helpref{wxYield}{wxyield}. The caller
+should ensure that this can cause no recursion, in the simplest case by
+calling \helpref{wxEnableTopLevelWindows(FALSE)}{wxenabletoplevelwindows}.
+
+For asynchronous execution, however, the return value is the process id and
+zero value indicates that the command could not be executed. As an added
+complication, the return value of $-1$ in this case indicattes that we didn't
+launch a new process, but connected to the running one (this can only happen in
+case of using DDE under Windows for command execution). In particular, in this,
+and only this, case the calling code will not get the notification about
+process termination.
+
+If callback isn't NULL and if execution is asynchronous (note that callback
+parameter can not be non-NULL for synchronous execution),
+\helpref{wxProcess::OnTerminate}{wxprocessonterminate} will be called when
+the process finishes.
+
+Finally, you may use the third overloaded version of this function to execute
+a process (always synchronously) and capture its output in the array
+{\it output}. The fourth version adds the possibility to additionally capture
+the messages from standard error output in the {\it errors} array.
+
+See also \helpref{wxShell}{wxshell}, \helpref{wxProcess}{wxprocess},
+\helpref{Exec sample}{sampleexec}.

+\membersection{::wxExit}\label{wxexit}
+
+\func{void}{wxExit}{\void}
+
+Exits application after calling \helpref{wxApp::OnExit}{wxapponexit}.
+Should only be used in an emergency: normally the top-level frame
+should be deleted (after deleting all other frames) to terminate the
+application. See \helpref{wxWindow::OnCloseWindow}{wxwindowonclosewindow} and \helpref{wxApp}{wxapp}.

+\membersection{::wxKill}\label{wxkill}
+
+\func{int}{wxKill}{\param{long}{ pid}, \param{int}{ sig = wxSIGTERM}, \param{wxKillError }{*rc = NULL}}
+
+Equivalent to the Unix kill function: send the given signal {\it sig} to the
+process with PID {\it pid}. The valud signal values are
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+enum wxSignal
+{
+ wxSIGNONE = 0, // verify if the process exists under Unix
+ wxSIGHUP,
+ wxSIGINT,
+ wxSIGQUIT,
+ wxSIGILL,
+ wxSIGTRAP,
+ wxSIGABRT,
+ wxSIGEMT,
+ wxSIGFPE,
+ wxSIGKILL, // forcefully kill, dangerous!
+ wxSIGBUS,
+ wxSIGSEGV,
+ wxSIGSYS,
+ wxSIGPIPE,
+ wxSIGALRM,
+ wxSIGTERM // terminate the process gently
+};
+\end{verbatim}
+
+{\tt wxSIGNONE}, {\tt wxSIGKILL} and {\tt wxSIGTERM} have the same meaning
+under both Unix and Windows but all the other signals are equivalent to
+{\tt wxSIGTERM} under Windows.
+
+Returns 0 on success, -1 on failure. If {\it rc} parameter is not NULL, it will
+be filled with an element of {\tt wxKillError} enum:
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+enum wxKillError
+{
+ wxKILL_OK, // no error
+ wxKILL_BAD_SIGNAL, // no such signal
+ wxKILL_ACCESS_DENIED, // permission denied
+ wxKILL_NO_PROCESS, // no such process
+ wxKILL_ERROR // another, unspecified error

-
-Executes another program in Unix or Windows.
-
-The first form takes a command string, such as {\tt "emacs file.txt"}.
-
-The second form takes an array of values: a command, any number of
-arguments, terminated by NULL.
-
-The semantics of the third and fourth versions is different from the first two
-and is described in more details below.
-
-If {\it sync} is FALSE (the default), flow of control immediately returns.
-If TRUE, the current application waits until the other program has terminated.
-
-In the case of synchronous execution, the return value is the exit code of
-the process (which terminates by the moment the function returns) and will be
-$-1$ if the process couldn't be started and typically 0 if the process
-terminated successfully. Also, while waiting for the process to
-terminate, wxExecute will call \helpref{wxYield}{wxyield}. The caller
-should ensure that this can cause no recursion, in the simplest case by
-calling \helpref{wxEnableTopLevelWindows(FALSE)}{wxenabletoplevelwindows}.
-
-For asynchronous execution, however, the return value is the process id and
-zero value indicates that the command could not be executed.
-
-If callback isn't NULL and if execution is asynchronous (note that callback
-parameter can not be non-NULL for synchronous execution),
-\helpref{wxProcess::OnTerminate}{wxprocessonterminate} will be called when
-the process finishes.
-
-Finally, you may use the third overloaded version of this function to execute
-a process (always synchronously) and capture its output in the array
-{\it output}. The fourth version adds the possibility to additionally capture
-the messages from standard error output in the {\it errors} array.

+\section{RTTI functions}\label{macros}
+
+wxWindows uses its own RTTI ("run-time type identification") system which
+predates the current standard C++ RTTI and so is kept for backwards
+compatribility reasons but also because it allows some things which the
+standard RTTI doesn't directly support (such as creating a class from its
+name).
+
+The standard C++ RTTI can be used in the user code without any problems and in
+general you shouldn't need to use the functions and the macros in this section
+unless you are thinking of modifying or adding any wxWindows classes.

\section{Debugging macros and functions}\label{debugmacros}
-Useful macros and functions for error checking and defensive programming. ASSERTs are only
-compiled if \_\_WXDEBUG\_\_ is defined, whereas CHECK macros stay in release
-builds.
+Useful macros and functions for error checking and defensive programming.
+wxWindows defines three families of the assert-like macros:
+the wxASSERT and wxFAIL macros only do anything if \_\_WXDEBUG\_\_ is defined
+(in other words, in the debug build) but disappear completely in the release
+build. On the other hand, the wxCHECK macros stay event in release builds but a
+check failure doesn't generate any user-visible effects then. Finally, the
+compile time assertions don't happen during the run-time but result in the
+compilation error messages if the condition they check fail.

+\func{void}{wxOnAssert}{\param{const char *}{fileName}, \param{int}{ lineNumber}, \param{const char *}{msg = NULL}}
+
+This function is called whenever one of debugging macros fails (i.e. condition
+is false in an assertion). It is only defined in the debug mode, in release
+builds the \helpref{wxCHECK}{wxcheck} failures don't result in anything.
-This function may be redefined to do something non trivial and is called
-whenever one of debugging macros fails (i.e. condition is false in an
-assertion).
-% TODO: this should probably be an overridable in wxApp.
+To override the default behaviour in the debug builds which is to show the user
+a dialog asking whether he wants to abort the program, continue or continue
+ignoring any subsequent assert failures, you may override
+\helpref{wxApp::OnAssert}{wxapponassert} which is called by this function if
+the global application object exists.
\membersection{wxASSERT}\label{wxassert}
Please note that the condition in wxASSERT() should have no side effects
because it will not be executed in release mode at all.

+\membersection{wxASSERT\_MIN\_BITSIZE}\label{wxassertminbitsize}
+
+\func{}{wxASSERT\_MIN\_BITSIZE}{\param{}{type}, \param{}{size}}
+
+This macro results in a
+\helpref{compile time assertion failure}{wxcompiletimeassert} if the size
+of the given type {\it type} is less than {\it size} bits.
+
+You may use it like this, for example:
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+ // we rely on the int being able to hold values up to 2^32
+ wxASSERT_MIN_BITSIZE(int, 32);
+
+ // can't work with the platforms using UTF-8 for wchar_t
+ wxASSERT_MIN_BITSIZE(wchar_t, 16);

+
+\membersection{wxCOMPILE\_TIME\_ASSERT}\label{wxcompiletimeassert}
+
+\func{}{wxCOMPILE\_TIME\_ASSERT}{\param{}{condition}, \param{}{msg}}
+
+Using {\tt wxCOMPILE\_TIME\_ASSERT} results in a compilation error if the
+specified {\it condition} is false. The compiler error message should include
+the {\it msg} identifier - please note that it must be a valid C++ identifier
+and not a string unlike in the other cases.
+
+This macro is mostly useful for testing the expressions involing the
+{\tt sizeof} operator as they can't be tested by the preprocessor but it is
+sometimes desirable to test them at the compile time.
+
+Note that this macro internally declares a struct whose name it tries to make
+unique by using the {\tt \_\_LINE\_\_} in it but it may still not work if you
+use it on the same line in two different source files. In this case you may
+either change the line in which either of them appears on or use the
+\helpref{wxCOMPILE\_TIME\_ASSERT2}{wxcompiletimeassert2} macro.

+internally defined by this macro to avoid getting the compilation errors
+described \helpref{above}{wxcompiletimeassert}.

+\func{void}{wxTrap}{\void}

+In debug mode (when {\tt \_\_WXDEBUG\_\_} is defined) this function generates a

+
+In release mode this function does nothing.
