wxPyConstructObject with wxApp

#1

related to getting an Instance of wx.App
I thought I might try creating my own wrapper for getting an instance of wx.App, but wxPyConstructObject returns null
Is there something wrong with this code?

PyObject* PyApApplication::getwxApp()
{
    WxPyAutoLock lock;
    if (!wxPyCheckForApp(false))
        throw PyNullObject();
    wxApp* pApp = wxTheApp;
    if (pApp == nullptr)
        throw PyNullObject();
    PyObject* _wxapp = wxPyConstructObject(pApp, wxT("wxApp"));// returns NULL
    if (_wxapp == nullptr)
        throw PyNullObject();
    return _wxapp;
}

I’ve also tried other variants, wxAppBase etc.

the the solution appears to be using wxPyApp

PyObject* PyApApplication::getwxApp()
{
    WxPyAutoLock lock;
    if (!wxPyCheckForApp(false))
        throw PyNullObject();
    wxApp* pApp = wxTheApp;
    if (pApp == nullptr)
        throw PyNullObject();
    PyObject* _wxapp = wxPyConstructObject(pApp, wxT("wxPyApp"));
    if (_wxapp == nullptr)
        throw PyNullObject();
    return _wxapp;
}
