wxIcon

^{generated from ../src/mod_gui/misc/icon.cpp}

An icon is a small rectangular bitmap usually used for denoting a minimized application. It differs from a wxBitmap in always having a mask associated with it for transparent drawing. On some platforms, icons and bitmaps are implemented identically, since there is no real distinction between a wxBitmap with a mask and an icon; and there is no specific icon format on some platforms (X-based applications usually standardize on XPMs for small bitmaps and icons). However, some platforms (such as Windows) make the distinction, so a separate class is provided. See wxBitmap, wxFrame icon property and wxBitmapType
