Yes. Something needs to call gtk.main_quit() to stop the GTK event
loop. All of this is spelled out pretty well in the tutorial:
http://www.pygtk.org/pygtk2tutorial/ch-GettingStarted.html
Short answer - add this to the Base.__init__():
self.window.connect('destroy', gtk.main_quit)
When the window is destroyed (ie, closed) then gtk.main_quit will get
called. Here is the complete code:
import pygtk
pygtk.require('2.0')
import gtk
class Base:
def __init__(self):
self.window = gtk.Window(gtk.WINDOW_TOPLEVEL)
self.window.connect('destroy', gtk.main_quit)
self.window.show()
def main(self):
gtk.main()
print __name__
if __name__ == "__main__":
base = Base()
base.main()
