I'm building an application involving both twisted and Tkinter. Since
twisted co-opts <widget>.mainlo op() in its reactor.run(), and since it
behaves very badly if the application quits without reactor.stop()
running, I attach the following function to '<Destroy>' in the main
window (root = Tk()):
def stop_reactor_bi nd(x):
reactor.stop()
Then:
root.bind('<Des troy>',stop_rea ctor_bind)
The problem, however, comes that when I add a Text widget inside the
root window, upon destroying the window (closing it) the callback seems
to execute twice. In interactive testing, it's executed once per widget
inside the root window. Since twisted doesn't take multiple
reactor.stop()s gracefully, how (short of wrapping this inside a
class/scope that keeps state) can I ensure that the callback executes
only once? Am I attaching to the wrong signal?

Bindings created on a Toplevel or Tk widget apply to *all* widgets in the same
toplevel.
So you're seeing a <Destroy> event for each widget you create...

Oh. :) Is there a way of binding the event just to the window itself,
or should I just check that the widget referenced in the 'event'?
[update: not even sure how I'd do this anyway, since the widget returned
in the event "is not" the root widget]
For me, an 'is' test works to find out what widget the event is taking
place on.
#------------------------------------------------------------------------
import Tkinter
def display_event(e ):
print "event received", e.widget, e.widget is t
t = Tkinter.Tk()
t.bind("<Destro y>", display_event)
w = Tkinter.Entry(t )
t.destroy()
#------------------------------------------------------------------------
This program prints:
event received .-1209415348 False
event received . True
if that fails, you could compare str(e.widget) and t._w, though this can
give a false positive if you have multiple Tk() instances---each Tk()
instance is called ".".

.... yes, I am apparently as stupid as I look. In my test code, I was
trying "if event is widget," and I just now saw that. Thanks! :) This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

When I start my program I call a class that runs the initial window. While

Hi everybody,
I'm using QuickTimeTcl (3.1) to be able to play movie files in my Tkinter

hi people.
when i create a widget, such as a toplevel window, and then i destroy
it, how can i test that it has been destroyed? the problem is that even
after it has been destroyed, the instance still exists and has a tkinter
name, so testing for None is not feasible:
>>> import Tkinter
>>> fin = None
>>> fin1 = Tkinter.Toplevel()
