wxGenericValidator

wxGenericValidator performs data transfer (but not validation or filtering) for the following basic controls: wxButton, wxCheckBox, wxListBox, wxStaticText, wxRadioButton, wxRadioBox, wxChoice, wxComboBox, wxGauge, wxSlider, wxScrollBar, wxSpinButton, wxTextCtrl, wxCheckListBox.

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

For more information, please see Validator overview.
