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

4e5d278c 20A module that allows multiple handlers to respond to single wxWidgets

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 25There are two ways to register event handlers. The first way is
4e5d278c 26similar to standard wxPython handler registration::
d14a1e28 27
4e5d278c 28 from wx.lib.evtmgr import eventManager
d14a1e28
RD
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
4e5d278c 33programmer to declare or track control ids or parent containers::
d14a1e28
RD
34
35 eventManager.Register(handleEvents, EVT_BUTTON, myButton)
36
37This module is Python 2.1+ compatible.
