@class wxStopWatch
@wxheader{stopwatch.h}
The wxStopWatch class allow you to measure time intervals. For example, you may
use it to measure the time elapsed by some function:
@code
wxStopWatch sw;
CallLongRunningFunction();
wxLogMessage("The long running function took %ldms to execute",
sw.Time());
sw.Pause();
... stopwatch is stopped now ...
sw.Resume();
CallLongRunningFunction();
wxLogMessage("And calling it twice took $ldms in all", sw.Time());
@endcode
