%% @doc A port of <a href="http://www.wxwidgets.org/">wxWidgets</a>.
%%
%% This is the base api of <a href="http://www.wxwidgets.org/">wxWidgets</a>.
%% This module contains functions for
%% starting and stopping the wx-server, as well as  other utility functions.
%%
%% wxWidgets is object oriented, and not functional. Thus, in wxErlang a
%% module represents a class, and the object created by this class
%% has an own type, wxCLASS().  This module represents the base
%% class, and all other wxMODULE's are sub-classes of this class.
%%
%% Objects of a class are created with wxCLASS:new(...) and destroyed with
%% wxCLASS:destroy(). Member functions are called with wxCLASS:member(Object, ...)
%% instead of as in C++ Object.member(...).
%%
%% Sub class modules inherit (non static) functions from their parents.
%% The inherited functions are not documented in the sub-classes.
%%
%% This erlang port of wxWidgets tries to be a one-to-one mapping with
%% the original wxWidgets library. Some things are different though,
%% as the optional arguments use property lists and can be in any
%% order. The main difference is the event handling which is different
%% from the original library. See {@link wxEvtHandler}.
%%
%% The following classes are implemented directly as erlang types: <br />
%% wxPoint={x,y},wxSize={w,h},wxRect={x,y,w,h},wxColour={r,g,b [,a]},
%% wxString={@link //stdlib/unicode:chardata()},
%% wxGBPosition={r,c},wxGBSpan={rs,cs},wxGridCellCoords={r,c}.
%%
%% wxWidgets uses a process specific environment, which is created by
%% {@link wx:new/0}.  To be able to use the environment from other
%% processes, call {@link get_env/0} to retrieve the environment and
%% {@link set_env/1} to assign the environment in the other process.
%%
%% Global (classless) functions are located in the wx_misc module.
