Hi all I am working on a Dialog window for a gui in wxPython and started refactoring it, below code is a simplified version of it. "def createInput1" should create a static text, a button and a textcontrol using the information in "def box1Labels". "def makeStaticBox1" then arranges all widgets in staticbox1. My problem is that it works fine for the static text and the button label but I cant "rename" self.txtctrl that it becomes self.txtctrl_inpath or self.txtctrl_outpath for getting the path from either "def BrowseInDlg" or "def BrowseOutDlg".
You need the special __setattr__ method. A normal object attribute assignment like: self.wombat = "go" is equivalent to a call of self.__setattr__("wombat", "go") So in your createInput1 method, once the widgets have been created and all the dust has settled, if you add the line: self.__setattr__(txtctrl_path, self.txtctrl) it will do exactly what you're after! -- Rhodri James *-* Wildebeeste Herder to the Masses -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
