## Detailed Description

This class shows a static text element which links to an URL.

Appearance and behaviour is completely customizable.

In fact, when the user clicks on the hyperlink, a wxHyperlinkEvent is sent but if that event is not handled (or it's skipped; see wxEvent::Skip), then a call to wxLaunchDefaultBrowser() is done with the hyperlink's URL.

Note that standard wxWindow functions like wxWindow::SetBackgroundColour, wxWindow::SetFont, wxWindow::SetCursor, wxWindow::SetLabel can be used to customize appearance of the hyperlink.

## Styles

This class supports the following styles:

- wxHL_ALIGN_LEFT:
  Align the text to the left.
- wxHL_ALIGN_RIGHT:
  Align the text to the right. This style is not supported under Windows XP but is supported under all the other Windows versions.
- wxHL_ALIGN_CENTRE:
  Center the text (horizontally). This style is not supported by the native MSW implementation used under Windows XP and later.
- wxHL_CONTEXTMENU:
  Pop up a context menu when the hyperlink is right-clicked. The context menu contains a "Copy URL" menu item which is automatically handled by the hyperlink and which just copies in the clipboard the URL (not the label) of the control.
- wxHL_DEFAULT_STYLE:
  The default style for wxHyperlinkCtrl: wxBORDER_NONE|wxHL_CONTEXTMENU|wxHL_ALIGN_CENTRE.

## Events emitted by this class

The following event handler macros redirect the events to member function handlers 'func' with prototypes like:

void handlerFuncName(wxHyperlinkEvent& event)

Event macros for events emitted by this class:

- EVT_HYPERLINK(id, func):
  The hyperlink was (left) clicked. If this event is not handled in user's code (or it's skipped; see wxEvent::Skip), then a call to wxLaunchDefaultBrowser is done with the hyperlink's URL.

Currently this class is implemented using native support in wxGTK and wxMSW (under Windows XP and later only) and a generic version is used by the other ports.
