Part of the reason why all functions had default values for the constructors was to get the GtkWhatever(_obj=...) call to work with all objects. This isn't needed now, but having sensible defaults on some objects would probably be a good idea. > > But will for example GtkCheckButton.active work in 0.7.0 final?

It can be fixed by editing gtk.defs and adding the extra field to GtkToggleButton and recompiling. I will add this. There are still a few bugs in the way you can access class attributes in the new pygtk (eg. if a class defines new attributes, you can't get to any of the attributes in a parent class). > > Tom Cato > James. -- Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] WWW: http://www.daa.com.au/~james/ - To unsubscribe: echo "unsubscribe" | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]

One last question about pre0.7.0, should we expect many incompatibilities. One thing, many constructors in gtk.py, like GtkAdjustment has default values, (at least now) 0.7.0 has not. This is just fine for me since it is closer to the C version. But will for example GtkCheckButton.active work in 0.7.0 final? Right now I need to use get_active() method.

This is due to the use of ExtensionClass. I am not sure how to fix this properly. This is mentioned in the ExtensionClass.stx file included in the tarball. You can get your code to work with: DataStorage.__dict__['__init__'](self, name) It doesn't look as pretty, but it does work. The difference is that DataStorage.__init__ is an unbound method that requires an Instance type as its first argument (and in your case, self would be of type ChordBox), while DataStorage.__dict__['__init__'] is just a plain function. > > Tom Cato > James. -- Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] WWW: http://www.daa.com.au/~james/ - To unsubscribe: echo "unsubscribe" | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [pygtk] new development snapshot
In my eartraining program, I have the (bad?) habit of using multiple inheritance: class ChordBox(gkt.GtkHBox, DataStorage): def __init__(self, name): gtk.GtkHBox.__init__(self) DataStorage.__init__(self, name) ... ... With 0.7.0-unstable-dont-use, I get: DataStorage.__init__(self, name) TypeError: unbound method must be called with class instance 1st argument Should I convert to having a DataStorage variable in ChordBox, or will this be possible 0.7.0 is finished?

As I said in the first message, it is still not finished, so don't be surprised if things don't quite work right (I would like some feedback though).

[pygtk] new development snapshot
I have put up another tarball of the new extension class based pygtk. It is available at: ftp://ftp.daa.com.au/pub/james/python/pygtk-0.7.0-unstable-dont-use.tar.gz As before, it is not yet ready to replace the 0.6.x versions of pygtk, but it is getting better. You will probably find that a lot of your programs just work (or almost work) with the new code. If you want to run a program without installing the test release, remember to import the ltihooks module before gtk (this makes sure it finds the extensions correctly). It is still not complete, but it is getting there. James. -- Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] WWW: http://www.daa.com.au/~james/ - To unsubscribe: echo "unsubscribe" | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
