standard =XRC, or XML Resource, is a
cross-platform XML -baseduser interface markup language used bywxWidgets . XRC allowsgraphical user interface elements, such as dialogs, menu bars and toolbars, to be stored as XML, which can be loaded into the application at run-time or translated into a targetprogramming language and compiled.Advantages
* Recompiling and linking is not always necessary when changing the interface.
* Separates the interface from the program logic.
* Ability to choose between different resource files at run time.
* XRC is a wxWidgets standard, so it can be generated and processed by any program that understands it.
* XML is easier to parse than most programming languages.
* Existing XML editors can be used to edit XRC files.ee also
