I'm not sure where the event-related changes came from; have you executed any-bind-sync.lua on your version? I'm not sure what may be needed for additional CallAfter support. I've implemented the current one a while ago (it's in wxbase_base.i with an override in wxbase_override.hpp). Is there anything in particular you're looking to add support for? It's always better to start with a specific method/class that may be missing and to add just it. Paul.
