Subject: Added wxWindow::IsDescendant() helper.
X-Git-Url: https://git.saurik.com/wxWidgets.git/commitdiff_plain/8b2f64c6c12f3f110480040b3d8b5328f156c295

Added wxWindow::IsDescendant() helper.

This function checks if another window is a direct or indirect child of this
one, which can be needed in a number of situations.

See #3063.
