@class wxBusyInfo
This class makes it easy to tell your user that the program is temporarily busy.
Just create a wxBusyInfo object on the stack, and within the current scope,
a message window will be shown.
For example:
@code
wxBusyInfo wait("Please wait, working...");
for (int i = 0; i < 100000; i++)
{
DoACalculation();
}
@endcode
It works by creating a window in the constructor, and deleting it
in the destructor.
You may also want to call wxTheApp-Yield() to refresh the window
periodically (in case it had been obscured by other windows, for
example) like this:
@code
wxWindowDisabler disableAll;
wxBusyInfo wait("Please wait, working...");
for (int i = 0; i < 100000; i++)
{
DoACalculation();
if ( !(i % 1000) )
wxTheApp-Yield();
}
@endcode
but take care to not cause undesirable reentrancies when doing it (see
wxApp::Yield for more details). The simplest way to do it is to use
wxWindowDisabler class as illustrated in the above example.
