I'm trying to learn WxPython with the tutorial: http://wiki.wxpython.org/Getting_Started
But I can't seem to get the example for events to work. I pasted the code they had directly into an interpreter and it got a dialog to appear and the program was able to close itself, but my own copy won't work. As far as I can see, it isn't at all different except for the name of the main frame, and so I differ to you for help. my own code: #!/usr/bin/python import wx ID_ABOUT=101 ID_EXIT=110 class MainWindow(wx.Frame): def __init__(self,parent,id,title): wx.Frame.__init__(self,parent,id,title,size=(200,100)) self.control = wx.TextCtrl(self,1,style=wx.TE_MULTILINE) self.CreateStatusBar() #adds a status bar to the bottom #Menu setup filemenu = wx.Menu() filemenu.Append(wx.ID_ABOUT,"&About","Info about the program") filemenu.AppendSeparator() filemenu.Append(wx.ID_EXIT,"E&xit","Terminate the program.") #Menubar setup menuBar = wx.MenuBar() menuBar.Append(filemenu,"&File") #add file to the menubar self.SetMenuBar(menuBar) #add in the menubar # Add events wx.EVT_MENU(self,ID_ABOUT,self.OnAbout) wx.EVT_MENU(self,ID_EXIT,self.OnExit) # Go! self.Show(True) def OnAbout(self,e): print "Show!" d = wx.MessageDialog(self,"A sample editor.","About Sample Ed",wx.OK) d.ShowModal() d.Destroy() def OnExit(self,e): print "close!" self.Close(True) app = wx.PySimpleApp() frame = MainWindow(None,wx.ID_ANY,'Small Ed!') app.MainLoop() -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
