wx.PyEvent

PyEvent can be used as a base class for implementing custom event types in Python. You should derive from this class instead of Event because this class is Python-aware and is able to transport its Python bits safely through the wxWidgets event system and have them still be there when the event handler is invoked. Note that since PyEvent is taking care of preserving the extra attributes that have been set then you do not need to override the Clone method in your derived classes.

Methods

__init__(self, id=0, eventType=wxEVT_NULL)

Parameters

• id (int) –

• eventType (wx.EventType) –

---

Clone(self)

Make a new instance of the event that is a copy of self.

Through the magic of Python this implementation should work for this and all derived classes.

---

__delattr__(self, name)

Parameters

name (PyObject) –

---

__getattr__(self, name)

Parameters

name (PyObject) –

Return type

PyObject

---

__setattr__(self, name, value)

Parameters

• name (PyObject) –

• value (PyObject) –

---

_getAttrDict(self)

Gives access to the internal object that is tracking the event’s python attributes.

Return type

PyObject
