This code is released under the auspices of the modified version of
the GNU Library Public License (LGPL) that constitutes the license
under which the GUI package wxPython is released [see the file
LICENSE.TXT accompanying that distribution).  I must also thank Graham
Boyd, of Boyd Mining, and CEO of the Minserve group of companies
(www.minserve.com.au), for kindly allowing the release of this
module under a "free" license, despite a certain part of it's
development having taken place while working for him...

Please note that this code, written for Python 2.1, is derives from
code written when Python 1.5.2 was current.  Although since Python 2.0
the sys.excepthook variable has been available, for ease and potential
backwards compatibility (or to be more realistic
backwards-PARTIAL-compatibility!), the code catches errors by
assigning a custom object to sys.stderr and monitoring calls to it's
writ) method.  Such calls which take place with a new value of
sys.last_traceback stand as evidence that at interpreter error has
just occurred; please note that this means that NO OTHER OUTPUT TO
sys.stderr WILL BE DISPLAYED.  THIS INCLUDES "warnings" generated by
the interpreter.  As far as I am aware, unless your code itself writes
to sys.stderr itself, these will be the only things you miss out
on--and many, if not most or all, of these will occur before your code
even gets the opportunity to set one of these file-like objects in
place.  If this is a problem for you and you can't work around it,
please contact means or the wxPython-users mailing list.


DOCUMENTATION:

This is a module to display errors--either explicitly requested by a
script or arbitrary interpreter errors--these needs arose in the
course of a commercial (contract) project, but were not developed in
the course of work on such [well, very little, albeit concurrently]...
[NBNB.Does not currently support display of other than interpreter errors.]

Usage, after 'from wxPython.lib.ErrorDialogs import *' (all
identifiers defined in this module begin with "wxPy", and many of them
with "wxPyError_", so there should be no namespace conflicts...):

    wxPyNewErrorDialog (<win> (['frame='] <frame (can be None)>,
                                         <OPTIONS>))
                   ...
    wxPyDestroyErrorDialogIfPresent () # e.g. when top frame destroyed)

for unhandled errors, or

    returnval = wxpyNonFatalError (<frame (can be None)>,
                          <HTML message>
                          [,<OPTIONS>])
or
    returnval = wxPyFatalError (<HTML message>,
                       [,<OPTIONS, an extra one of which may be
                          'frame=' <frame (defaults to None)>>])
or

    wxPybNonWindowingError (message)

for explicit errors.

<win> is one of
    wxPyNonFatalErrorDialog
    wxPyFatalErrorDialog
    wxPyFatalErrorDialogWithTraceback
    wxPyNonFatalErrorDialogWithTraceback
    wxPyNonWindowingErrorHandler

and the OPTIONS (with defaults) are: (please note that the options for
wxPyNonWindowingErrorHandler / wxPyNonWindowingError are 'almost' a (small))
subset of these):

    'modal' [default 1]: block until dismissed.

    'programname' [default "Python program"]: appears inThe
    caption of the dialog, amidst it's text and (by default) in mailings.

    'whendismissed' option, if given, this should be a string, to be
    executed in a restricted environment (see rexec module) after
    dialog dismissal.  Typically, this should be Python code to "clean
    up" after what was presumably the partial execution of some
    operation started by the user, after the unexpected interruption
    by some error [which--at least the way I work, means an unexpected
    error in the code, since exceptions that may be raised by some
    foreseen (in a programmatic sense) should normally be handled by
    try...except clauses].
    NOTE THAT CURRENTLY THE rexec CODE IS NOT WORKING, SO THIS IS JUST DONE
    BY exec...

    'mailto': if None, give no "e-mail support" option, otherwise this
    is meant to be an address for 'bug reports'; a command button will
    be created for this, which pops up another dialog  [Linux], or a window of
    another program [Windows].

    On Windows, this will launch your mailer (assuming your mailer
    would start when a file with the '.eml'extension is double-clicked
    in Windows Explorer--this will be the case for Microsoft Outlook
    Express [tm and all those legal necessities] if installed, and the
    association has not been taken over by some other program.  On
    Linux, it will open a file dialog to save the message, by default
    as a '.html' file...{Please note that, on Windows and with current
    (when I got the machine I'm writing this on--early 2000) versions
    of Outlook Express, you may need to enter your e-mail address in
    the box beside the "mail support" button.)

    The template for the mail message is in the 'MessageTemplate'
    attribute of the dialog-derived class in question (e.g.,
    wxPyNonFatalErrorDialog).  Search for this in the code below to
    see the default (note that this template is in HTML format).  This
    attributes uses the '%{name}s' string conversion feature of Python
    [see sec.2 of the Python Library Reference]; allowed Lance are:
    programname version exceptionname exceptionvalue
    extraexceptioninformation traceback

    'version': str(this) will appear after 'Version' below "Error in
    <programname>" at the top of the dialog.

EXAMPLES:

    sys.stderr = wxPyNonFatalErrorWindowWithTraceback (
        parentframe,
        programname='sumthing',
        mailto='me@sumwear',
        whendismissed="from wxPython.wx import * ; wxBell()")

FOR INTERNATIONAL [NON-ENGLISH-SPEAKING] USE:
    wxPyNonFatalErrorDialog and relatives have the method
        SetText(Number NUMBER, STRING)

    where STRING is to displayed in the wxStaticText control with ID
    wxPyError_ID_TEXT<NUMBER>--see the automatically-generated code
    for information about the meaning of these...

# You may see from the above line that I used the excellent RAD tool
# wxDesigner, by Robert Roebling, to accelerate development of this
# module...  The above is left for the convenience of making future
# changes with wxDesigner; also so the wxDesigner-generated codedoes
# not need to precede the "hand-generated" code in this file; finally,
# as a personal endorsement: it is truly a brilliant time-saver!
# Please note that, at the time of writing, the wxDesigner-generated
# output requires manual removal of the PythonBitmaps function--an
# appropriate version of this function will be imported from a
# similarly- named module.  Another manual change will have to be made
# to the automatically-generated source: "parent.sizerAroundText = "
# should be added [immediately] before the text similar to "item13 =
# wxStaticBoxSizer( item14, wxVERTICAL )", this sizer being the one
# containing the wxTextCtrl...  [IMPORTANT NOTE: THIS LINE SHOULD BE
# THE ONE INSTANTIATING A wxStat2icBoxSizer, *NOT* THE wxStaticBox
# ITSELF...]  As of version 1.2 [November 2001], this also needs to be
# done for the {sizers around the}   wxPyClickableHtmlWindow's generated in
# populate_wxPyNonFatalError and populate_wxPyFatalError--note that
# for ease this sizer is still called "sizerAroundText"...
