Accessing the wxApp instance?

[David Dynerman]

I was wondering what the canonical way of accessing an application
instance.

I couldn't find it browsing the documentation, but is there a global
function that returns the wxApp instance (assuming single-instance)?

If not, is there a clean way to get at the app?

i.e. in OnInit()?

globalInsance = *this;

Thanks for any help.

wxGetApp() is defined by the DECLARE_APP macro and returns a pointer
to your derived wxApp class. There is also a global wxApp object
called wxTheApp. See the documentation for wxGetApp().

Thanks a lot.

Please humor a new guy for a bit longer, but I can't seem to find the
docs.

Presumably this is a function, but on
http://www.wxwindows.org/manuals/2.4.2/wx424.htm#topic1062, the
wxWindows function list, I can't seem to find the function in
question.

Apparently it's not in the 2.4.2 docs (although it does exist, I
promise ;)) It is in the 2.5.x docs. It's mentioned in the wxApp
overview. Maybe someone could backport this doc change?

wxTheApp is depreciated though :).
