+API GENERATION:
+ Most of the code in wx is generated.
+ Users of wxErlang should not normally need to regenerate the generated code,
+ as it is checked in by wxErlang developers, when changes are made.
+ 2008-09-29 Code checked in is currently generated from wxwidgets 2.8.7.
+
+REQUIREMENTS:
+ The code generation requires doxygen (1.4.6) which is
+ used to parse wxWidgets c++ headers and generate xml files (in
+ wx_xml/).
+
+ (2008-09-29 doxygen 1.4.6 is required.
+ Later versions of Doxygen - up to 1.5.6 at least - have a bug in the xml generation
+ which causes us problems. This has been logged and we are waiting for a fix.)
+
+CONFIGURATION:
+ wxapi.conf contains the specification to the code generator. The code
+ generator reads the specification and parses the xml files and
+ produces the erlang and the 'C' code.
+
+ Adding/changing stuff/classes should be done by updating wxapi.conf
+ and running make. Sometimes the code generator will require changes,
+ I havn't thought of everything yet.
+
+CONTRIBUTION:
+ Send me patches or update the svn version.
