Detailed Description

wxGenericValidator performs data transfer (but not validation or filtering) for many type of controls.

It checks the type of the window and uses an appropriate type for it. For example, wxButton and wxTextCtrl transfer data to and from a wxString variable; wxListBox uses a wxArrayInt; wxCheckBox uses a boolean.

For more information, please see wxValidator Overview.
