Config in wx examples

[Peter J Etheridge]

Dear Erlangers,
In this module from the manual;

-module(ex_notebook).

-include_lib("wx/include/wx.hrl").

-behaviour(wx_object).

-export([start/1, init/1, terminate/2, code_change/3,

handle_info/2, handle_call/3, handle_cast/2, handle_event/2]).

-record(state,

{

parent,

config,

notebook

}).

start(Config) ->

wx_object:start_link(?MODULE, Config, [])......

Apart from the argument being a variable and a data field in the state
record, in this context what is Config ?

Thank you in advance.
Peter

Hi,
The example source code is a bit misleading because it is called by demo:load_example/2
So Config would be a propslist with members parent, demo_sz and log
It's instructive to look at that code. It's in the example directory of wx library

Arif
