<h2>EventManager</h2>

<p> The goal of the EventManager is to make wxWindows events more
'Pythonic' (ie. object-oriented) and easier to work with, without
impacting performance.  It offers these features:

<p>
<ul>

    <li> Allows any number of listeners to register for a single
    event.  (In addition to the standard wxPython feature of a single
    listener being able to respond to many events.)

    <li> Makes it easy to disconnect and reconnect listeners.  This
    has the effect of reducing the need for case-based branching in
    application code.

    <li> Has an object-oriented API.  Programmers register to get
    events directly from the objects that generate them, instead of
    using ID numbers.

</ul>

<h3>Usage</h3>

<p>The EventManager class has three public methods.  First get a
reference to it:

<PRE>
  from wxPython.lib.evtmgr import eventManager
</PRE>

<p>...and then invoke any of the following methods.  These methods are
'safe'; duplicate registrations or de-registrations will have no
effect.

<p><b>Registering a listener:</b>

<PRE>
  eventManager.Register(listener, event, event-source)
</PRE>


<p><b>De-registering by window:</b>

<PRE>
  eventManager.DeregisterWindow(event-source)
</PRE>


<p><b>De-registering by listener:</b>

<PRE>
  eventManager.DeregisterListener(listener)
</PRE>

<p><b>Simple Example:</b>

<PRE>
  from wxPython.lib.evtmgr import eventManager

  aButton = wxButton(somePanel, -1, 'Click me')
  eventManager.Register(self.someMethod, EVT_BUTTON, aButton)
</PRE>

<p> See the demo code as well as the documentation in the source of
<tt>wxPython.lib.evtmgr</tt> for more details.
