This is the default and only constructor of the wxConfigBase class, and
derived classes.

The application name. If this is empty, the class will
normally use wxApp::GetAppName to set it. The
application name is used in the registry key on Windows, and can be used to
deduce the local filename parameter if that is missing.

The vendor name is appended to the application name for wxRegConfig.

@param style
Can be one of wxCONFIG_USE_LOCAL_FILE and
wxCONFIG_USE_GLOBAL_FILE. The style interpretation depends on the config
class and is ignored by some implementations. For wxFileConfig, these styles
determine whether a local or global config file is created or used: if
wxCONFIG_USE_GLOBAL_FILE is used, then settings are read from the global
config file and if wxCONFIG_USE_LOCAL_FILE is used, settings are read from
and written to local config file (if they are both set, global file is read
first, then local file, overwriting global settings). If the
flag is present but the parameter is empty, the parameter will be set to a
default. If the parameter is present but the style flag not, the relevant flag
will be added to the style. For wxRegConfig, thie GLOBAL flag refers to HKLM
key while LOCAL one is for the usual HKCU one.
For wxFileConfig you can also add wxCONFIG_USE_RELATIVE_PATH by logically
or'ing it to either of the _FILE options to tell wxFileConfig to use relative
instead of absolute paths.
On non-VMS Unix systems, the default local configuration file is ~/.appname.
However, this path may be also used as user data directory
(see wxStandardPaths::GetUserDataDir) if
the application has several data files. In this case wxCONFIG_USE_SUBDIR
flag, which changes the default local configuration file to ~/.appname/appname
should be used. Notice that this flag is ignored if localFilename is
provided. This function is new since wxWidgets version 2.8.2
For wxFileConfig, you can also add wxCONFIG_USE_NO_ESCAPE_CHARACTERS which
will turn off character escaping for the values of entries stored in the config
file: for example a foo key with some backslash characters will be stored
as foo=C:\mydir instead of the usual storage of
foo=C:\\mydir.
The wxCONFIG_USE_NO_ESCAPE_CHARACTERS style can be helpful if your config
file must be read or written to by a non-wxWidgets program (which might not
understand the escape characters). Note, however, that if
wxCONFIG_USE_NO_ESCAPE_CHARACTERS style is used, it is is now
your application's responsibility to ensure that there is no newline or
other illegal characters in a value, before writing that value to the file.
