[Waxgui-users] help with Wax RF

[Mike B. <mik...@co...>]

All,
 
I'm new to using Wax and really like the idea of using the waxRf.  I've got
something sort of how I'd like to see it working with my resource file.
 
My question is:  how do I hook up stuff to get my data?
 
Here is a simplified example (probably not the best way to do it --
critiques would be welcome) that has two fields and two buttons.
 
Could someone help me out in how I would define the hooks (whether in the
xml or code doesn't matter to me)?  
 
Thanks,
Mike
 
Following is the code that I have.
 
---------------------------------------------
 
from wax import *
import wax.tools.waxrf as waxrf
 
resource = """\
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<resource>
    <Panel name="myPanel" >
        <VerticalPanel name="labels">
            <Label text="Location of files" />
            <Label text="Report Name" />
        </VerticalPanel>
        <VerticalPanel name="txtCtrls" >
            <TextBox name="txtLoc" text="d:/myBlogs/Work" _expand="h" />
            <TextBox name="txtRptName" text="todosRtp.txt"  _expand="h" />
        </VerticalPanel>
        
        <Button name="btnOK" text="OK" _border="5" />
        <Button name="btnCancel" text="Cancel" _border="5" />
     </Panel>
</resource>
"""
 
res = waxrf.XMLResource()
res.LoadFromString(resource)
 

# stick a custom event in Button
def MyOnClick(self, event):
    print 'You clicked the button with label', `self.GetLabel()`
 
Button.OnClick = MyOnClick
 
class MainFrame(VerticalFrame):
    def Body(self):
        sp1 = res.LoadObject(self, 'myPanel')
        self.AddComponent(sp1, expand='both')
        self.Pack()
        
        
 
app = Application(MainFrame, title='Test')
app.Run()
