A question about event handlers with wxPython

[Erik Lind]

I'd appreciate any pointer on a simple way to tell within an event handler
where the event came from.
I want to have "while" condition in a handler to stop or change processing
if an event occurs from some other button click.

Trying to bind more than one event to the same handler still doesn't tell me
where the event came from in a basic bind. Is there an argument I can put in
the bind so as to identify the source of the event in the event argument? .

Hello Eric,

I'd appreciate any pointer on a simple way to tell within an event handler
where the event came from.

def HandleSomething (self, event):
generating_cont rol = event.GetEventO bject()
print generating_cont rol

HTH,

def HandleSomething (self, event):

generating_cont rol = event.GetEventO bject()
print generating_cont rol

HTH,

Thank you.That is what I was looking for, but as often seems the case, one
thing exposes another. Is there any way to listen for events without
specifically binding to a handler (it seems one cannot bind an event to two
handlers?)? One could do so with globals, but I'm trying to avoid that.

For example, "press any button to stop"
def HandleSomething (self, event):
............... ..
while generating_cont rol: == something:
run
else
stop

I forgot to provide a link to a fairly straight-forward explanation of
event propagation on the wxPython wiki: http://wiki.wxpython.org/EventPropagation

Hope that helps!

That all looks cool. I will experiment more. I'm a bit slow on this as only
two weeks old so far.

Thanks for the patience

No problem. I'm pretty slow with some toolkits too...such as
SQLAlchemy. Ugh.

BTW,

The wxPython group that you mentioned....is that

I think those are C++ users using the pure C++ wx. I meant the
