## Detailed Description

wxStaticBoxSizer is a sizer derived from wxBoxSizer but adds a static box around the sizer.

The static box may be either created independently or the sizer may create it itself as a convenience. In any case, the sizer owns the wxStaticBox control and will delete it in the wxStaticBoxSizer destructor.

Note that since wxWidgets 2.9.1 you are encouraged to create the windows which are added to wxStaticBoxSizer as children of wxStaticBox itself, see this class documentation for more details.

Example of use of this class:

            void MyFrame::CreateControls()
            {
                wxPanel *panel = new wxPanel(this);
                ...
                wxStaticBoxSizer *sz = new wxStaticBoxSizer(wxVERTICAL, panel, "Box");
                sz->Add(new wxStaticText(sz->GetStaticBox(), wxID_ANY,
                                         "This window is a child of the staticbox"));
                ...
            }
