This includes multiple tab controls and pages order and uses new wxAuiSerializer and wxAuiDeserializer notebook-specific functions. These functions are pure virtual, which may be inconvenient if the program doesn't use wxAuiNotebook at all or doesn't allow splitting or reordering their pages, as it forces to still define them in this case, but this is arguably not too burdensome and making them pure virtual helps to attract attention to the fact that they need to be implemented for saving notebook layouts. Update the sample to show how to support notebook layout serialization in the simplest possible way, by creating a separate top-level XML tag for the notebooks. It could be tidier to put information about them inside the corresponding pane tags, but doing it like this is simpler and more clear, which is important for the sample code. Closes #24950.
About
wxWidgets is a free and open source cross-platform C++ framework for writing advanced GUI applications using native controls.
wxWidgets allows you to write native-looking GUI applications for all the major desktop platforms and also helps with abstracting the differences in the non-GUI aspects between them. It is free for the use in both open source and commercial applications, comes with the full, easy to read and modify, source and extensive documentation and a collection of more than a hundred examples. You can learn more about wxWidgets at https://www.wxwidgets.org/ and read its documentation online at https://docs.wxwidgets.org/
Platforms
This version of wxWidgets supports the following primary platforms:
- Windows 7, 8, 10 and 11 (32/64 bit Intel and ARM64).
- Most Unix variants using the GTK+ toolkit (version 2.6 or newer or 3.x).
- macOS (10.10 or newer) using Cocoa under both amd64 and ARM platforms.
All C++11 compilers are supported including but not limited to:

Please use 3.2 branch if you must use wxWidgets with a C++98 compiler or support Windows XP.
Licence
wxWidgets licence is a modified version of LGPL explicitly allowing not distributing the sources of an application using the library even in the case of static linking.
Building
For building the library, please see platform-specific documentation under
docs/<port> directory, e.g. here are the instructions for
wxGTK, wxMSW and
wxOSX.
If you're building the sources checked out from Git, and not from a released version, please see these additional Git-specific notes.
