I'm not sure what 'named forwarding functions' are but I'm actually in a
class and when applying your suggestion in the following manner,
everything works (THANKS!)
****************************
def __Dec(self,p_string):
for i in p_string:
self.__Insert(i)
.
.
.
#menu creation
l_dec.add_command(label = 'ATR', command=lambda: self.__Dec('ATR'))
l_dec.add_command(label = 'IN', command=lambda:self.__Dec('IN'))
.
.
.
****************************
Yet I have a question:
If I replace the menu creation code as below, and since __Insert appends
the string p_string into a text widget that is created _after_ the menu
creation; the method __Dec seems to be called at the menu creation and
I get an error in __Insert because the test widget is equal to None.
My reflexes of C programmer tell me that command=self.__Dec.... just
passes a method pointer (sorry I said it) to add_command - yet it does
not seem to be so.
What is actually going on ?
#menu creation
l_dec.add_command(label = 'ATR', command=self.__Dec('ATR'))
l_dec.add_command(label = 'IN', command=self.__Dec('IN'))

Philippe
