a wxwindowdc must be constructed if an application wishes to paint on the whole area of a window (client and decorations). this should normally be constructed as a temporary stack object; don't store a wxwindowdc object.
to draw on a window from inside onpaint, construct a wxpaintdc object.
to draw on the client area of a window from outside onpaint, construct a wxclientdc object.
to draw on the whole window including decorations, construct a wxwindowdc object (windows only).
