 Creates a bitmap from an array of bits.
 

+Note that the bit depth is ignored on GTK+ and Motif. If you want to create a bitmap
+from something else than a 1-bit data array, use the \helpref{wxImage}{wximage} class.

+Creates a new bitmap. A depth of -1 indicates the depth of the current screen or
