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).
For example, a static variable must be protected against simultaneous access by
multiple threads in the former configuration but in the latter the extra
overhead of using the critical section is not needed. To solve this problem,
the wxCRITICAL_SECTION macro may be used to create and use the critical section
only when needed.

The second form is used when retrieving translation of string that has
different singular and plural form in English or different plural forms in some
other language. It takes two extra arguments: as above, @e str
parameter must contain the singular form of the string to be converted and
is used as the key for the search in the catalog. The @a strPlural parameter
is the plural form (in English). The parameter @a n is used to determine the
plural form. If no message catalog is found @a str is returned if 'n == 1',
otherwise @e strPlural.
See GNU gettext manual
for additional information on plural forms handling. For a shorter alternative
see the wxPLURAL() macro.
Both versions call wxLocale::GetString.
Note that this function is not suitable for literal strings in Unicode
builds, since the literal strings must be enclosed into

In the overloaded versions of this function, if @a flags parameter contains
@c wxEXEC_ASYNC flag (the default), flow of control immediately returns. If
it contains @c wxEXEC_SYNC, the current application waits until the other
program has terminated.
In the case of synchronous execution, the return value is the exit code of
the process (which terminates by the moment the function returns) and will be
-1 if the process couldn't be started and typically 0 if the process
terminated successfully. Also, while waiting for the process to
terminate, wxExecute will call wxYield(). Because of this, by
default this function disables all application windows to avoid unexpected
reentrancies which could result from the users interaction with the program
while the child process is running. If you are sure that it is safe to not
disable the program windows, you may pass @c wxEXEC_NODISABLE flag to
prevent this automatic disabling from happening.

program windows, you may pass @c wxEXEC_NODISABLE flag to prevent this
automatic disabling from happening.
For asynchronous execution, however, the return value is the process id and
zero value indicates that the command could not be executed. As an added
complication, the return value of -1 in this case indicates that we didn't
launch a new process, but connected to the running one (this can only happen in
case of using DDE under Windows for command execution). In particular, in this,
and only this, case the calling code will not get the notification about
launch a new process, but connected to the running one (this can only
happen when using DDE under Windows for command execution). In particular,
in this case only, the calling code will not get the notification about
process termination.
If callback isn't @NULL and if execution is asynchronous,
wxProcess::OnTerminate will be called when
the process finishes. Specifying this parameter also allows you to redirect the
standard input and/or output of the process being launched by calling
wxProcess::Redirect. If the child process IO is redirected,
under Windows the process window is not shown by default (this avoids having to
flush an unnecessary console for the processes which don't create any windows
If @a callback isn't @NULL and if execution is asynchronous,
wxProcess::OnTerminate() will be called when the process finishes.
Specifying this parameter also allows you to redirect the standard input
and/or output of the process being launched by calling
wxProcess::Redirect(). If the child process IO is redirected, under Windows
the process window is not shown by default (this avoids having to flush an
unnecessary console for the processes which don't create any windows
anyhow) but a @c wxEXEC_NOHIDE flag can be used to prevent this from
happening, i.e. with this flag the child process window will be shown normally.
Under Unix the flag @c wxEXEC_MAKE_GROUP_LEADER may be used to ensure
that the new process is a group leader (this will create a new session if
needed). Calling wxKill() passing wxKILL_CHILDREN will
kill this process as well as all of its children (except those which have
started their own session).

The @c wxEXEC_NOEVENTS flag prevents processing of any events from taking
place while the child process is running. It should be only used for very
short-lived processes as otherwise the application windows risk becoming
unresponsive from the users point of view. As this flag only makes sense with
@c wxEXEC_SYNC, @c wxEXEC_BLOCK equal to the sum of both of these flags
is provided as a convenience.
Finally, you may use the third overloaded version of this function to execute
a process (always synchronously, the contents of @a flags is or'd with
@c wxEXEC_SYNC) and capture its output in the array @e output. The
fourth version adds the possibility to additionally capture the messages from
standard error output in the @a errors array.
