Constructor for a wxBoxSizer. orient may be either of wxVERTICAL or wxHORIZONTAL for creating either a column sizer or a row sizer.

### wxBoxSizer::RecalcSizes

Implements the calculation of a box sizer's dimensions and then sets the size of its children (calling wxWindow::SetSize if the child is a window). It is used internally only and must not be called by the user. Documented for information.

### wxBoxSizer::CalcMin

wxSize CalcMin()

Implements the calculation of a box sizer's minimal. It is used internally only and must not be called by the user. Documented for information.

### wxBoxSizer::GetOrientation

int GetOrientation()

Returns the orientation of the box sizer, either wxVERTICAL or wxHORIZONTAL.
