And the code begins:
top_widget = MyTopWidget() sub_widget = MySubWidget() sub_sub_widget = MySubSubWidget()
I'd prefer adding my widgets in the usual PyGTK sytle:
sub_widget.add(sub_sub_widget) top_widget.add(sub_widget)
Instead of this plain and ugly hack (where the 'widget' member of my classes is the created PyGTK widget):
sub_widget.add(sub_sub_widget.widget) top_widget.add(sub_widget.widget)
I don't know whether it is possible or not. So please anyone drop me a line. Is it posibble at all from Python?
There is nothing wrong with subclass a gtk widget class in Python. Something like this should work fine:
class MyTopWidget(gtk.VBox): def __init__(self): gtk.VBox.__init__(self, False, 6) self.set_border_width(12) self.connect('expose-event', self._on_expose)
def add(self, widget): self.pack_start(widget, fill=True, expand=True)
def _on_expose(self, widget, event): print "I've been exposed!"
Make sure that you are using pygtk-2.0.0. I don't think that subclassing will work at all with 0.6, and some 1.99.x versions had problems with reference counts when you started doing stuff like that 'connect' call above.
