### wxClassInfo::wxClassInfo

wxClassInfo(const wxChar * className, const wxClassInfo * baseClass1, const wxClassInfo * baseClass2, int size, wxObjectConstructorFn fn)

Constructs a wxClassInfo object. The supplied macros implicitly construct objects of this class, so there is no need to create such objects explicitly in an application.

### wxClassInfo::CreateObject

wxObject* CreateObject() const

Creates an object of the appropriate kind. Returns NULL if the class has not been declared dynamically creatable (typically, it is an abstract class).

### wxClassInfo::FindClass

static wxClassInfo * FindClass(wxChar * name)

Finds the wxClassInfo object for a class of the given string name.

### wxClassInfo::GetBaseClassName1

wxChar * GetBaseClassName1() const

Returns the name of the first base class (NULL if none).

### wxClassInfo::GetBaseClassName2

wxChar * GetBaseClassName2() const

Returns the name of the second base class (NULL if none).

### wxClassInfo::GetClassName

wxChar * GetClassName() const

Returns the string form of the class name.

### wxClassInfo::GetSize

int GetSize() const

Returns the size of the class.

### wxClassInfo::InitializeClasses

static void InitializeClasses()

Initializes pointers in the wxClassInfo objects for fast execution of IsKindOf. Called in base wxWidgets library initialization.

### wxClassInfo::IsDynamic

bool IsDynamic() const

Returns true if this class info can create objects of the associated class.

### wxClassInfo::IsKindOf

bool IsKindOf(wxClassInfo* info)

Returns true if this class is a kind of (inherits from) the given class.
