My apologies if this is a known issue, but I didn't find it mentioned in a
search of the mailing list archive.
I'm starting to test out a migration from a Python 1.5.2/wxPython 2.2.x
platform to the latest 2.3.2.1 under Python 2.2, and I've run into a problem
with wxGenButton in wxPython.lib.buttons. Originally I thought it was due
to my use of the hybrid build, but now I've tried the standard and it
happens as well.
Specifically any attempt to instantiate a wxGenButton fails while trying to
establish its colors, with the traceback ending up at:
File "d:\pkg\python22\lib\site-packages\wxPython\lib\buttons.py", line 154,
in SetBackgroundColour
wxWindow.SetBackgroundColour(self, colour)
TypeError: unbound method SetBackgroundColour() must be called with wxWindow
instance as first argument (got wxGenButton instance instead)
Originally I detected this in my own code (which subclasses wxGenButton),
but it occurs if you try to run the wxPython demo for the generic buttons as
well.
Now, it seems to me that since wxGenButton is a subclass of wxControl, which
itself is derived from wxWindow, that it should be valid, no? But in any
event, this seems to break wxGenButton completely.
Any ideas on how to possibly work around this - I tend to use wxGenButton in
a number of my applications, so this is a drag
