▼Class List by Category | This group contains all full class list groups
Application and Process Management | The classes in this section represent the application (see wxApp) or parts of it (e.g
Application and System configuration | The classes in this section are used to handle application-wide settings and system-wide settings
Archive support | Classes for managing (eventually compressed) archives
Book Controls | A book control contains pages of other controls
Clipboard and Drag & Drop | Related Overviews: Drag and Drop Overview
Common Dialogs | Common dialogs are ready-made dialog classes which are frequently used in an application
Containers | These are classes, templates and class macros are used by wxWidgets
Controls | Typically, these are small windows which provide interaction with the user
Data Structures | These are the data structure classes provided by wxWidgets
Debugging | WxWidgets supports some aspects of debugging an application through classes, functions and macros
Device Contexts | Device contexts are surfaces that may be drawn on, and provide an abstraction that allows parameterisation of your drawing code by passing different device contexts
Document/View Framework | WxWidgets supports a document/view framework which provides housekeeping for a document-centric application
Events | An event object contains information about a specific event
File Handling | WxWidgets has several small classes to work with disk files and directories
Graphics Device Interface (GDI) | The following are classes related to GDI (Graphics Device Interface) access
Grid Related Classes | Classes related to the wxGrid generic widget
HTML | WxWidgets provides a set of classes to display text in HTML format
Help | Classes for loading and displaying help manuals or help informations in general
Interprocess Communication | WxWidgets provides simple interprocess communications facilities based on Windows DDE, but they are available on most platforms using TCP
Logging | WxWidgets provides several classes and functions for message logging
Managed Windows | There are several types of window that are directly controlled by the window manager (such as MS Windows, or the Motif Window Manager)
Menus | Group of classes for handling menu bars and items
Miscellaneous | Group of miscellaneous classes
Miscellaneous Windows | The following are a variety of classes that are derived from wxWindow
Multimedia | Classes for showing multimedia contents
Networking | WxWidgets provides its own classes for socket based networking
OpenGL | Classes interfacing wxWidgets with OpenGL (http://opengl.org/)
Picker Controls | A picker control is a control whose appearance and behaviour is highly platform-dependent
Printing Framework | A printing and previewing framework is implemented to make it relatively straightforward to provide document printing facilities
Ribbon User Interface | The wxRibbon library is a set of classes for writing a ribbon user interface
Rich Text | WxWidgets provides a set of generic classes to edit and print simple rich text with character and paragraph formatting
Runtime Type Information (RTTI) | WxWidgets supports runtime manipulation of class information, and dynamic creation of objects given class names
Scintilla Text Editor | WxWidgets also provides a wrapper around the Scintilla text editor control, which is a control for plain-text editing with support for highlighting, smart indentation, etc
Smart Pointers | WxWidgets provides a few smart pointer class templates
Streams | WxWidgets has its own set of stream classes, as an alternative to often buggy standard stream libraries, and to provide enhanced functionality
Text Conversion | These are the classes used for conversions between different text encodings
Threading | WxWidgets provides a set of classes to make use of the native thread capabilities of the various platforms
Validators | These are the window validators, used for filtering and validating user input
Virtual File System | WxWidgets provides a set of classes that implement an extensible virtual file system, used internally by the HTML classes
WebView | The wxWebView library is a set of classes for viewing complex web documents and for internet browsing
Window Docking (wxAUI) | WxAUI is a set classes for writing a customizable application interface with built-in docking, floatable panes and a flexible MDI-like interface
Window Layout | WxWidgets makes window layout and sizing easy and painless using a set of classes known as "sizers"
XML | Group of classes loading and saving XML documents (http://www.w3.org/XML/)
XML Based Resource System (XRC) | Resources allow your application to create controls and other user interface elements from specifications stored in an XML format
wxDataViewCtrl Related Classes | These are all classes used or provided for use with wxDataViewCtrl
wxPropertyGrid | WxPropertyGrid is a specialized grid for editing properties (that is, name=value pairs)
▼Functions and Macros by Category | This group defines all major function and macro groups
Application Initialization and Termination | The functions in this section are used on application startup/shutdown and also to control the behaviour of the main event loop of the GUI programs
Atomic Operations | When using multi-threaded applications, it is often required to access or modify memory which is shared between threads
Byte Order | The endian-ness issues (that is the difference between big-endian and little-endian architectures) are important for the portable programs working with the external binary data (for example, data files or data coming from network) which is usually in some fixed, platform-independent format
Debugging macros | Useful macros and functions for error checking and defensive programming
Dialogs | Below are a number of convenience functions for getting input from the user or displaying messages
Environment | These functions allow access to get or change the values of environment variables in a portable way
Events | Below are a number of functions/macros used with wxWidgets event-handling system
Files and Directories | These functions provide a platform-independent API for common file and directory functionality
Graphics Device Interface (GDI) | The following are functions and macros related to GDI (Graphics Device Interface) access
Locale-dependent functions | Below are a number of functions/macros which accept as last parameter a specific wxXLocale instance
Logging | These functions provide a variety of logging functions
Math | The functions in this section are typically related with math operations and floating point numbers
Miscellaneous | Group of miscellaneous functions and macros
Network, User and OS | The functions in this section are used to retrieve information about the current computer and/or user characteristics
Process Control | The functions in this section are used to launch or terminate the other processes
Runtime Type Information (RTTI) | WxWidgets uses its own RTTI ("run-time type identification") system which predates the current standard C++ RTTI and so is kept for backwards compatibility reasons but also because it allows some things which the standard RTTI doesn't directly support (such as creating a class from its name)
Strings | Global string functions and macros
Threads | The functions and macros here mainly exist to make it possible to write code which may be compiled in multi thread build (wxUSE_THREADS = 1) as well as in single thread configuration (wxUSE_THREADS = 0)
Time | The functions in this section deal with getting the current time and sleeping for the specified time interval
Versioning | The following constants are defined in wxWidgets:
Wrappers of CRT functions | For documentation of these functions please refer to the documentation of the standard CRT functions (see e.g
