Subject: Re: [wxPython-users] Using "preferences"Maybe I misunderstand your goals, but this sounds like a job
for wx.Config()class MyApp( wx.App ):
def OnInit(self):
self.SetVendor('me')
self.SetApplication('myprogram')
config = wx.Config()
title_setting = config.Read('Title', "Some title")
frame = MyFirstFrame(None,title_setting)
frame.Show(True)
self.SetTopWindow(frame)# viola, it is really that simple.
# you can do confg = wx.Config() anywhere in your app. Given
that the app
# has vendor and application properties set the same, it will
access the
same
