> > Well I think self.data is some kind of container with a pickled string, > given the code to unpickle it is: > Exactly! This is what the C++ file 'pickle.h' creates to send to the Python GUI:
/** * A pickled Python dictionary. Used to pass stuff to the UI. */ class pickle { public: /** * pickle constructor. * * \param frame_body A const_bit_queue representing the frame body. */ pickle(); /** * pickle virtual destructor. */ ~pickle(); /** * Add a key/value pair to the pickled dictionary */ void add(std::string key, std::string value); /** * Returns a string describing the Data Unit ID (DUID). */ std::string to_string() const; private: typedef std::map<std::string, std::string> stringmap; stringmap map_; }; #endif /* INCLUDED_PICKLE_H */ I am pretty sure that it sends a C++ map of strings in a form that Python understands as a pickle. I put the code you gave me into the file so ill have to wait and see. meanwhile can you please take a look at this update() and tell me if you see something wrong because ever sense I tried using the array for logging the values from the TextCtrls the program is not updating meaning when the program receives the c++ map, or the pickle, I get nothing in the UI and I get nothing in the log. There got to be something wrong with the loop that I can not see. I attached the file so its not too much code here. I am pretty sure the problem is in the update(0) starts at line 210.
