dialog showmodal in separate thread

If you are calling wx functions from a thread separate from the main
GUI thread, you should use wx.CallAfter() in order to “post” this
function call to the main GUI thread to be executed. I had similar
problems when doing multithreading and using wx.

I’m running pysvn in a separate thread instance.
In the svn callback__get_login (defined in the threading instance
itself) I would like to show a dialog for prompt user/password.
but when i call dlg.ShowModal() I receive this error:

wx._core.PyAssertionError: C++ assertion “wxAssertFailure” failed in
...\src\msw\evtloop.cpp(350): can’t call Dispatch() if not running

what this mean exactly?

thank you for your answer, but my problem is that the callback_get_login function is expecting a return value and so i need to return those values returned from the dialog
