[wxPython] Running the Demo from PythonWin

wxPython Users

Hi,

I posted a similar message a while ago and didn't hear anything. I'll try
again.

If I run the demo.py from PythonWin (Python 2.1, Win2K) multiple times it
works fine.

If I run the demo from PythonWin using main.py it works the first time, but
then it crashes the next time I try to run it. Anyone know what is causing
this and why I have to run demo.py, which just imports Main and runs
Main.main() to prevent the crash?

Thanks,

Gene

My guess is that it has something to do with the different way the namespace
is setup for Main.py. When run directly then it is the __main__ module,
when imported from demo then it is the Main module. Maybe PythonWin doesn't
completely cleanup __main__ or something.
