A wxbitmap object represents a bitmap resource that can be provided to any of the wx-based controls that allow a bitmap such as an icon. A separate type may be provided as an image control.
Creates a new wxbitmap object either by loading a bitmap from the supplied file name or by loading the bitmap from the blob supplied. If a filename parameter and format are provided then the blob, width and height should not be provided. The reverse is also true.
