102<h2>Original Object Return</h2>
103
104<p>Several methods in wxWindows return pointers to base class objects,
105when in fact the actual object pointed to is of a derived type. Since
106SWIG isn't able to tell the actual type it just creates a new Python
107shadow object of the base type to wrap around the base type pointer
108and returns it.
109
110<p>In wxPython prior to 2.3.0 this could cause annoying issues. For
111example if you called:
112
113<pre>
114
115 myText = someWindow.FindWindowById(txtID)
116</pre>
117
118expecting to get a wxTextCtrl you would actually get a wxWindow object
119instead. If you then try to call SetValue on that object you'll get
120an exception since there is no such method. This is the reason for
121the wxPyTypeCast hack that has been in wxPython for so long.
122
123<p>Even with wxPyTypeCast there was the issue that the object returned
124was not the same one that was created in Python originally, but a new
125object of the same type that wraps the same C++ pointer. If the
126programmer has set additional attributes of that original object they
127will not exist in the new object.
128
129<p>For a long time now I have wanted to do away with wxPyTypeCast and
130also find a way to return the original Python object from methods like
131FindWindowById. This project naturally divides into two phases:
132
133<p><ol>
134
135<li>Teach the wrapper methods how to return objects of the right type,
136and be able to then turn wxPyTypeCast in to a no-op.
137
138<li>Be able to return the original Python shadow object if it still exists.
139
140</ol>
141
142<p>The first button below shows the first of these phases (<i>working</i>)
143and the second will show #2 (<i>working as of Python 2.3.2</i>)
