   1 wxPython TODO List
   2 ------------------
   3
   4 These are the major tasks to be done on wxPython:
   5
   6 1. Get it working for wxGTK.
   7
   8 2. Figure out how to do embedding of wxPython in a wxWindows C++
   9    application.
  10
  11     Actually, now that I think about it it might actually work.  We
  12     just need to move some of the wxWindows initialization stuff out
  13     of wxpcinit, ensure that __wxStart is not called and that a wxApp
  14     is not created.  So this task becomes: Create a test case for
  15     embedding wxPython in a C++ app.  Should also create some helper
  16     functions for passing window objects into the Python code, etc.
  17
  18     Test this with M.
  19
  20
  21 3. Add significantly to the tests.
  22
  23 4. Derived Python classes should have the ability to call the standard
  24    On** methods in the base class.
  25
  26 5. There are some virtual On** and other methods in wxWindows that
  27    should end up being callbacks in derived python classes, but they
  28    are not called via the standard event system.  Is there any way to
  29    hook into these and call Python methods (if they exist in the
  30    derived class) without having to derive a specialized C++ class?
  31
  32 6. Add the Doc/View related classes
  33
  34 7. Add the Printing related classes
  35
  36 8. Document the differences (method signatures, new methods to
  37    compensate for no overloading, etc.) between wxPython and wxWindows.
  38
  39 9. Create some larger-scale sample application with wxPython to show
  40    it can be done and the simplicity that it will provide...  Test
  41    distribution with Freeze.
