+DocStr(wxDC,
+"A wx.DC is a device context onto which graphics and text can be
+drawn. It is intended to represent a number of output devices in a
+generic way, so a window can have a device context associated with it,
+and a printer also has a device context. In this way, the same piece
+of code may write to a number of different devices, if the device
+context is used as a parameter.
+
+Derived types of wxDC have documentation for specific features only,
+so refer to this section for most device context information.
+
+The wx.DC class is abstract and can not be instantiated, you must use
+one of the derived classes instead.  Which one will depend on the
+situation in which it is used.", "");
