[Pythoncard-users] problem with add Method and wxPython 2.5.1.5

[<chr...@ph...>]

Dear all,

When I upgrade wxPython 2.4.0.4 to 2.5.1.5 the addMethod() function does
not function properly anymore. I am running PythonCard 0.7.3.1 and python
2.2 (also in python 2.3 it gives the same results). The code works fine in
the old wxPython.

offending code snippet:

    def on_openBackground(self,event):
      for key in self.components.data:
          if isinstance(self.components[key],(wx.wxTextCtrl,
wx.wxTextCtrlPtr)):
              exec 'def on_'+key+'_mouseDown(self,event):
self.set_active(event.target)'
            exec 'self.addMethod(on_'+key+'_mouseDown)'

gives the following error:

c:\python22\lib\regsub.py:15: DeprecationWarning: the regsub module is
deprecated; please use re.sub()
  DeprecationWarning)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Python22\lib\site-packages\PythonCardPrototype\binding.py", line
268, in dispatchOpenBackground
    self.scriptable.dispatch.eventOccurred( event.OpenBackgroundEvent(
self.scriptable ) )
  File "C:\Python22\lib\site-packages\PythonCardPrototype\dispatch.py",
line 83, in eventOccurred
    handler.getFunction()(self._scriptable, nativeEvent)
  File "corrector_control.py", line 56, in on_openBackground
    exec 'self.addMethod(on_'+key+'_mouseDown)'
  File "<string>", line 1, in ?
  File "C:\Python22\lib\site-packages\PythonCardPrototype\model.py", line
519, in addMethod
    self.__class__.__dict__[aMethod.__name__] = aMethod
TypeError: object does not support item assignment


I hope someone can fix this problem so we can safely upgrade to the latest
wxPython.

with best regards,

Christiaan
