h1(#wxgenericvalidator). Wx::GenericValidator

GenericValidator performs data transfer (but not validation or filtering) for the following
basic controls: Button, CheckBox, ListBox, StaticText, RadioButton, RadioBox,
Choice, ComboBox, Gauge, Slider, ScrollBar, SpinButton, TextCtrl, CheckListBox.

It checks the type of the window and uses an appropriate type for that window. For example,
Button and TextCtrl transfer data to and from a String variable; ListBox uses a
ArrayInt; CheckBox uses a bool.

For more information, please see "Validator overview":validatoroverview.html.
