+user to perform actions which are not compatible with the current task.
+Disabling menu items or whole menus during processing can avoid unwanted
+reentrance of code: see \helpref{::wxSafeYield}{wxsafeyield} for a better
+function.
+
+Note that Yield() will not flush the message logs. This is intentional as
+calling Yield() is usually done to quickly update the screen and popping up a
+message box dialog may be undesirable. If you do wish to flush the log
+messages immediately (otherwise it will be done during the next idle loop
+iteration), call \helpref{wxLog::FlushActive}{wxlogflushactive}.
+
+Calling Yield() recursively is normally an error and an assert failure is
+raised in debug build if such situation is detected. However if the the 
+{\it onlyIfNeeded} parameter is {\tt true}, the method will just silently
+return {\tt false} instead.
