## Detailed Description

A child focus event is sent to a (parent-)window when one of its child windows gains focus, so that the window could restore the focus back to its corresponding child if it loses it now and regains later.

Notice that child window is the direct child of the window receiving event. Use wxWindow::FindFocus() to retrieve the window which is actually getting focus.

## Events using this class

The following event handler macros redirect the events to member function handlers 'func' with prototypes like:

void handlerFuncName(wxChildFocusEvent& event)
Event macros:

- EVT_CHILD_FOCUS(func):
  Process a `wxEVT_CHILD_FOCUS` event.
