[Tutor] global variables and getting/setting control values/variables between frames?? (original) (raw)

Hello, I have an application I am writing with wxpython and the boa constructor. I am unsure how to "talk between frames and dialogs". Global variables don't seem to be passed into child dialog and other frames from the parent frame, and I am unsure as to how to get a value from a control in the parent dialog from the child dialog. for example I use the following line to get the value from a text field:

myValue = self.textCtrl2.GetValue()

but what if the above line is in a different dialog or frame than the text field? how do I reference that frame and control box?

thanks!

good luck, hope it helps!

Currently there is no real means of hiding your source from those who have your compiled python applications. It is fairly trivial to go from byte code -> .py. You can bundle your application though, which will include an interpreter and all of the modules required to use it, that way they don't need to download everything.

hello, does anyone know if you can do something to the effect of compiling python so that it will act as a stand alone application - ie., can I write an application in python, create a wxpython interface and distribute it to my customers without them having to install python or anything else but my application? thanks.
