Hi Nagappan,
Thank you for your reply - so it seems I've figured the current state
of affairs out correctly myself :-)
An additional comment for everyone else using pygtk: In order to
change the LDTP visible object name of a widget/component, in the
source for your pygtk application use e.g.
paned.get_accessible().set_name('main_vpaned') and a LDTP generated
name 'splt0' becomes 'spltmainvpaned'. The LDTP test scripts then can
use well known object names and is less affected by UI refactorings.
Thanks
Christian
