## Detailed Description

This event is sent as early as possible during the window destruction process.

For the top level windows, as early as possible means that this is done by wxFrame or wxDialog destructor, i.e. after the destructor of the derived class was executed and so any methods specific to the derived class can't be called any more from this event handler. If you need to do this, you must call wxWindow::SendDestroyEvent() from your derived class destructor.

For the child windows, this event is generated just before deleting the window from wxWindow::Destroy() (which is also called when the parent window is deleted) or from the window destructor if operator `delete` was used directly (which is not recommended for this very reason).

It is usually pointless to handle this event in the window itself but it ca be very useful to receive notifications about the window destruction in the parent window or in any other object interested in this window.

## Public Member Functions
| wxWindowDestroyEvent (wxWindow *win=NULL)
| Constructor.
wxWindow * | GetWindow () const
| Return the window being destroyed.
Public Member Functions inherited from wxCommandEvent
| wxCommandEvent (wxEventType commandEventType=wxEVT_NULL, int id=0)
| Constructor.
void * | GetClientData () const
| Returns client data pointer for a listbox or choice selection event (not valid for a deselection).
wxClientData * | GetClientObject () const
| Returns client object pointer for a listbox or choice selection event (not valid for a deselection).
long | GetExtraLong () const
| Returns extra information dependent on the event objects type.
int | GetInt () const
| Returns the integer identifier corresponding to a listbox, choice or radiobox selection (only if the event was a selection, not a deselection), or a boolean value representing the value of a checkbox.
int | GetSelection () const
| Returns item index for a listbox or choice selection event (not valid for a deselection).
wxString | GetString () const
| Returns item string for a listbox or choice selection event.
bool | IsChecked () const
| This method can be used with checkbox and menu events: for the checkboxes, the method returns true for a selection event and false for a deselection one.
bool | IsSelection () const
| For a listbox or similar event, returns true if it is a selection, false if it is a deselection.
void | SetClientData (void *clientData)
| Sets the client data for this event.
void | SetClientObject (wxClientData *clientObject)
| Sets the client object for this event.
void | SetExtraLong (long extraLong)
| Sets the m_extraLong member.
void | SetInt (int intCommand)
| Sets the m_commandInt member.
void | SetString (const wxString &string)
| Sets the m_commandString member.
Public Member Functions inherited from wxEvent
| wxEvent (int id=0, wxEventType eventType=wxEVT_NULL)
| Constructor.
virtual wxEvent * | Clone () const =0
| Returns a copy of the event.
wxObject * | GetEventObject () const
| Returns the object (usually a window) associated with the event, if any.
wxEventType | GetEventType () const
| Returns the identifier of the given event type, such as `wxEVT_BUTTON`.
virtual wxEventCategory | GetEventCategory () const
| Returns a generic category for this event.
int | GetId () const
| Returns the identifier associated with this event, such as a button command id.
wxObject * | GetEventUserData () const
| Return the user data associated with a dynamically connected event handler.
bool | GetSkipped () const
| Returns true if the event handler should be skipped, false otherwise.
long | GetTimestamp () const
| Gets the timestamp for the event.
bool | IsCommandEvent () const
| Returns true if the event is or is derived from wxCommandEvent else it returns false.
void | ResumePropagation (int propagationLevel)
| Sets the propagation level to the given value (for example returned from an earlier call to wxEvent::StopPropagation).
void | SetEventObject (wxObject *object)
| Sets the originating object.
void | SetEventType (wxEventType type)
| Sets the event type.
void | SetId (int id)
| Sets the identifier associated with this event, such as a button command id.
void | SetTimestamp (long timeStamp=0)
| Sets the timestamp for the event.
bool | ShouldPropagate () const
| Test if this event should be propagated or not, i.e. if the propagation level is currently greater than 0.
void | Skip (bool skip=true)
| This method can be used inside an event handler to control whether further event handlers bound to this event will be called after the current one returns.
int | StopPropagation ()
| Stop the event from propagating to its parent window.
Public Member Functions inherited from wxObject
| wxObject ()
| Default ctor; initializes to NULL the internal reference data.
| wxObject (const wxObject &other)
| Copy ctor.
virtual | ~wxObject ()
| Destructor.
virtual wxClassInfo * | GetClassInfo () const
| This virtual function is redefined for every class that requires run-time type information, when using the wxDECLARE_CLASS macro (or similar).
wxObjectRefData * | GetRefData () const
| Returns the wxObject::m_refData pointer, i.e. the data referenced by this object.
bool | IsKindOf (const wxClassInfo *info) const
| Determines whether this class is a subclass of (or the same class as) the given class.
bool | IsSameAs (const wxObject &obj) const
| Returns true if this object has the same data pointer as obj.
void | Ref (const wxObject &clone)
| Makes this object refer to the data in clone.
void | SetRefData (wxObjectRefData *data)
| Sets the wxObject::m_refData pointer.
void | UnRef ()
| Decrements the reference count in the associated data, and if it is zero, deletes the data.
void | UnShare ()
| This is the same of AllocExclusive() but this method is public.
void | operator delete (void *buf)
| The delete operator is defined for debugging versions of the library only, when the identifier `WXDEBUG` is defined.
void * | operator new (size_t size, const wxString &filename=NULL, int lineNum=0)
| The new operator is defined for debugging versions of the library only, when the identifier `WXDEBUG` is defined.

## Additional Inherited Members
Protected Member Functions inherited from wxObject
void | AllocExclusive ()
| Ensure that this object's data is not shared with any other object.
virtual wxObjectRefData * | CreateRefData () const
| Creates a new instance of the wxObjectRefData-derived class specific to this object and returns it.
virtual wxObjectRefData * | CloneRefData (const wxObjectRefData *data) const
| Creates a new instance of the wxObjectRefData-derived class specific to this object and initializes it copying data.
Protected Attributes inherited from wxEvent
int | m_propagationLevel
| Indicates how many levels the event can propagate.
