==========================================================================================================================================
|phoenix_title|  **wx.GDIObject**
==========================================================================================================================================

This class allows platforms to implement functionality to optimise GDI objects, such as :ref:`wx.Pen`, :ref:`wx.Brush`  and :ref:`wx.Font`.          

On Windows, the underling GDI objects are a scarce resource and are cleaned up when a usage count goes to zero. On some platforms this class may not have any special functionality. 

Since the functionality of this class is platform-specific, it is not documented here in detail.
