/**
    @class wxWindowUpdateLocker

    This tiny class prevents redrawing of a wxWindow during its lifetime by using
    wxWindow::Freeze() and wxWindow::Thaw() methods.

    It is typically used for creating automatic objects to temporarily suppress
    window updates before a batch of operations is performed:

    @code
    void MyFrame::Foo()
        {
            m_text = new wxTextCtrl(this, ...);

            wxWindowUpdateLocker noUpdates(m_text);
            m_text-AppendText();
            ... many other operations with m_text...
            m_text-WriteText();
        }
    @endcode

    Using this class is easier and safer than calling wxWindow::Freeze() and
    wxWindow::Thaw() because you don't risk to forget calling the latter.
