@class wxApp
@class wxAppConsole
@wxheader{app.h}
The wxApp class represents the application itself. It is used to:
This class is essential for writing console-only or hybrid apps without
having to define wxUSE_GUI=0.
@li set and get application-wide properties;
@li implement the windowing system message or event loop;
@li initiate application processing via wxApp::OnInit;
@li allow default processing of events not handled by other
objects in the application.
You should use the macro IMPLEMENT_APP(appClass) in your application
implementation file to tell wxWidgets how to create an instance of your
application class.
Use DECLARE_APP(appClass) in a header file if you want the wxGetApp function
(which returns a reference to your application object) to be visible to other
files.
