- expression is TRUE (i.e. everything is ok) and by default does nothing: just
- returns the same value back. But if you redefine it to do something more sexy
- (popping up a message box in your favourite GUI, sending you e-mail or
- whatever) it will affect all ASSERTs, FAILs and CHECKs in your code.

- Extensive use of these macros is recommended! Remember that ASSERTs are
- disabled in final (without __WXDEBUG__ defined) build, so they add strictly
- nothing to your program's code. On the other hand, CHECK macros do stay
- even in release builds, but in general are not much of a burden, while
- a judicious use of them might increase your program's stability.
