## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

wxRegConfig::wxRegConfig | ( | const wxString & | appName = `wxEmptyString`,
|  | const wxString & | vendorName = `wxEmptyString`,
|  | const wxString & | localFilename = `wxEmptyString`,
|  | const wxString & | globalFilename = `wxEmptyString`,
|  | long | style = `wxCONFIG_USE_GLOBAL_FILE`
| ) |  |

The wxRegConfig constructor.

For more info see the docs for the wxConfigBase::wxConfigBase() constructor.

Note that wxRegConfig's style argument defaults to `wxCONFIG_USE_GLOBAL_FILE`, i.e. to the use of the `HKLM` key (also known as "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE").
