Known Subclasses:

PaintDC

A wx.ClientDC must be constructed if an application wishes to paint on the client area of a window from outside an EVT_PAINT event. This should normally be constructed as a temporary stack object; don't store a wx.ClientDC object long term.

To draw on a window from within an EVT_PAINT handler, construct a wx.PaintDC object.

To draw on the whole window including decorations, construct a wx.WindowDC object (Windows only).
