polling the class of a widget in XRC before making it?

I haven’t tried it myself, but couldn’t you do a try/except? Not the most elegant solution, but as it is written in the Good Book: It is more blessed to ask forgiveness than to ask permission.

This exception can not be trapped. The user is confronted with a popup that tells that there is no wxFrame named FOO in the XRC file. The coder just finds the result to the call empty.

If I could trap it I would have no problems, I just don't want to have the user bing part of the exception handling :wink:

How so, if you trap it?
