problem with wxPanel derivation class

N

none

wxGlade created a simple Frame with a panel a sizer and 3 wxControls ,
saticText, TextCtrl, and a Button.

The resulting code works fine.

Now the problem.
I wish to make a separate class derrived from wxPanel that has the sized
and controls as above. It jusst won't work

It seems as though the complaint is that a 'wxWindow *' is expected,
'Panel' is received
However, Panel IS a wx.Panel derivative which IS a wx.Window derivative!
Additionally, the methods in the code of Panel and MyFrameOne seem to be
identical.
I can't understand this. Anyone have any thoughts?

You will probably get better results if you post this to
gmane.com.python.wxpython list as it is specific to wxPython.

You've got calls for properties in other classes and you don't
initialize the panel object. I edited the code somewhat so it'll at
least run. I tried to comment where I changed things, but I may have
missed a few minor points. See below:

# and appropriately modified by changing self.panel to self etc

self.panel = Panel(self, -1)
self.__set_properties()

Larry is correct. You'll get better help from the wxPython group. See

It's because you didn't call the base class __init__. wxPython is a
SWIG wrapper around the C++ wxWidgets library, and if you don't call
the base class the SWIG infrastructure that maps your class to an
underlying C++ class doesn't happen and you get this error.

Ah-so. I knew there was a more technical answer than what I gave.
Hopefully I didn't muddy the issue with my doofy code.

Thanks All,
I didn't make the super() call (java terminology)
to the base class.

this is the only python group (en) on giganews, my first search
no wx or qt.
gmane.com.python.wxpython is not found
gmane.org came up and crashed firefox 3 times searching for python.
I'll try the wxpython forrum for x stuff, but you spoiled me with prompt
and accurate responses.

Thanks All,
I didn't make the super() call (java terminology)
to the base class.

this is the only python group (en) on giganews, my first search
no wx or qt.

The wxpython mailing list is wxpython-users. You can subscribe at
wxPython.org. It's not mirrored to an actual newsgroup, although I'm
sure gmane has it. You'll find wxpython-users to be at least as prompt
and accurate, at least with regard to wxPython-specific questions.
