Hello out there,

With my apologizes for my lack of knowledge of C++ and wxWidgets, which may=
=20
be the cause.

In interface/dynarray.h there is a template class wxArray<T>. As it is in=
=20
the interface directory, it appears in the=20
documentation: https://docs.wxwidgets.org/3.2/classwx_array_3_01_t_01_4.htm=
l

In the include directory, there is a corresponding dynarray.h but it=20
contains the template=20
classes wxArray_SortFunction, wxSortedArray_SortFunction and some others,=
=20
with no wxArray.

I though the interface directory was to contain a strip-down version of=20
what is in include. Where am I wrong?

There is something else I don=E2=80=99t understand and that was my original=
 worry.=20
I had a look at those include files, after I saw this in the=20
document: https://docs.wxwidgets.org/3.2/classwx_array_3_01_t_01_4.html#a7f=
cfbd2fa53fe042ea385f4e254729da

It says `wxArray<T>::wxSortedArray (int(*)(T first, T=20
second) compareFunction)`

It was not looking like what I knew of the syntax for pointer to functions.=
=20
So I checked it, and what I read=20
at https://en.cppreference.com/cpp/language/pointer#Pointers_to_functions ,=
=20
confirmed the few I know about it. I still wanted to check in case it is=20
not complete, and wrote a tiny test program in C then C++ and this kind=20
syntax was rejected, it expects the name to be after the opening=20
parentheses and star, that is, something like this: =20
`wxSortedArray (int(*compareFunction)(T first, T second))` and the same=20
with C++.

Will try to investigate more, but already investigated enough to feel lost.

With the hope to not annoy people=E2=80=AF=E2=80=A6
