3# Purpose: An easier, more "Pythonic" and more OO method of registering
4# handlers for wxWindows events using the Publish/Subscribe
5# pattern.

19"""
20A module that allows multiple handlers to respond to single wxWindows
21events. This allows true NxN Observer/Observable connections: One
22event can be received by multiple handlers, and one handler can
23receive multiple events.
1fded56b 24
d14a1e28
RD
25There are two ways to register event handlers. The first way is
26similar to standard wxPython handler registration:
27
28 from wxPython.lib.evtmgr import eventManager
29 eventManager.Register(handleEvents, EVT_BUTTON, win=frame, id=101)
30
31There's also a new object-oriented way to register for events. This
32invocation is equivalent to the one above, but does not require the
33programmer to declare or track control ids or parent containers:
34
35 eventManager.Register(handleEvents, EVT_BUTTON, myButton)
36
37This module is Python 2.1+ compatible.
