Boa Custom Class problems

wxPython Users
1

Hi guys im newbie. Im using Boa v0.2.3 with wxPython
2.4 for Python 2.3.
�
I wanna customize the status bar & using the code from
the demo (with the timer things).

So I made a module(CustomStatusBar.py):

from wxPython.wx import *
import time

class CustomStatusBar(wxStatusBar):
    def __init__(self, parent, id):
        wxStatusBar.__init__(self, parent, id)
        self.SetFieldsCount(2)
        
        self.SetStatusText(text='Skor Kardiovaskular
Jakarta')
        
        self.timer = wxPyTimer(self.Notify)
        self.timer.Start(1000)
        self.Notify()
        
        self.SetStatusWidths([-1, -1])
        
    def Notify(self):
        t = time.localtime(time.time())
        st = time.strftime("%d-%b-%Y %I:%M:%S", t)
        self.SetStatusText(st, 1)

and Change on my Main (wxFrame):

1. import CustomStatusBar

2. Adding "wxID_MAINMENUSTATUSBAR1," to map(lambda
_init_ctrls:... & increase the range

3. Add "_custom_classes = {'wxStatusBar':
['CustomStatusBar.CustomStatusBar']}" right below the
"class mainMenu(wxFrame):"

4. And finally adding:

self.statusBar1 =
CustomStatusBar.CustomStatusBar(self, id =
wxID_MAINMENUSTATUSBAR1)
self.statusBar1.SetPosition(wxPoint(0, 547))
self.statusBar1.SetSize(wxSize(780, 20))
self.SetStatusBar(self.statusBar1)

When I ran this things it works, but when I got back
to the Boa & tried to open the designer I always got
this:
"""
The following lines were not used by the Designer and
will be lost:
self.statusBar1 =
CustomStatusBar.CustomStatusBar(self,
id = wxID_MAINMENUSTATUSBAR1)

There were unprocessed lines in the source code of
method: _init_ctrls
If this was unexpected, it is advised that you cancel
this Designer session and correct the problem before
continuing.
"""

And my scripts on number 4 (above) its GONE!

Can anyone help me with these?

Thanx

Danu

Hi Danu,

Creating and using custom classes is discussed in detail in the Boa
docs, see Docs/boa/apphelp/MixingSource.html

The first problem is that the constructor signature should be the
same as the wxPython version.
The easiest way to do this is e.g.

  class CustomStatusBar(wxStatusBar):
      def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
          wxStatusBar.__init__(self, *args, **kwargs)

          ...

Next, you should import and use the custom class directly in the
global scope, e.g.

from CustomStatusBar import CustomStatusBar

And finally, you don't have to edit the generated source by hand
to create the custom statusbar class.
Just create a normal statusbar in the Designer and change it's
Class property in the Inspector to CustomStatusBar.

Hope that solves it,
Riaan.

I finally made up using:

class CustomStatusBar(wxStatusBar):
    def __init__(self, parent):

in wxFrame:

from CustomStatusBar import CustomStatusBar

class mainMenu(wxFrame):
    _custom_classes = {'wxStatusBar':
['CustomStatusBar']}

    def _init_ctrls(self, prnt):

        self.statusBar1 = CustomStatusBar(parent=self)

Thanx
