This mainly defines an entry point into the application's real functionality. Derived versions of the application_base can layer in more functionality as appropriate for different types of applications.

[pure virtual]

performs the main activity of this particular application object.

the method must be overridden by the derived object. a return value for the program as a whole should be returned. one's main program should call this after constructing the derived shell object; see the bottom of this file for an example.

Implemented in version_stamper, write_build_config, tiny_shell, wx_tiny_shell, application_shell, t_wxext_frame, and test_nt_security.
