The later. My non-Windows boxes are just servers, with no gui platform on them. >>Instead, they seem to accumulate somewhere in the ether and then all >>arrive in one go when the thread exits. > > All of this while the main event loop was running? I believe so, but in retrospect I can't be completely confident. Certainly as soon as I replaced the use of the app with an empty window in the same test script, it seemed to work. >>Another problem I encountered with using Wx::wxTheApp was that it >>wasn't giving me the original (Perl) object, but a clone.

I did make a working test case for this, it may not deep clone but it certainly shallow clones... >>I didn't have any equivalent problems when using the main window. >> >>I should note I'm seeing similar cloning problems with the bindings >>for Wx::Window::FindWindow (FindObject?) or something like that. > > Bug reports are (eventually) investigated :-) > >>So another shortcut I'd hoped to use had to be skipped in favour of >>using ->GetParent chains, which does return the original Perl objects. > > This does not make any sense... the typemap used for GetParent() is the > same used for FindWindow(). Do you have a test case? I'll try to get some of my test code formalised and into failing Padre tests...
