Hi all,
I have used DialogBlocks for wxWidgets C++ and it did not quite work
well out of the box for wxPython. The XRC generation used a base class
mechanism that wxPython did not understand properly and it needed
tweaking per wxPanel / wxDialog to run smoothly. I collaborated with
Julian about the possibilities to make the XRC generation more
streamlined for wxPython.
I am happy to announce that he released DialogBlocks v4.09 today,
which features a better bare XRC integration, which means the XRC
being output can be used 1:1 in wxPython applications.
Just wanted to let you guys know 
DialogBlocks is my favourite GUI
editor and it will never change , now I can use it with my newly found
programming language, wxPython
Regards,
- Jorgen
Hi Robin,
Well it was already fairly usable for XRC only, the only problem was
that the XRC generated also included a subclass="Dialog" for every top
dialog / panel.
In wxWidgets that means the XRC engine is going to look for a
subclassed window it can create, probably through the mechanism
AddXmlResourceHandler() .. Anyway leaving that field blank in
Dialogblocks made it possible to use the XRC only. But then there were
too many questions in the wizard related to C++ files, so I suggested
if the user selects XRC only that the questions for c++ related stuff
would be kept to a minimum.
Basically iy got a lot friendlier for the wxPython community
