I see, this is a rather unique use case. I cannot think of any other
way to use use an event callback in a coroutine that might work
besides running the whole program in it as you're doing. I'm still
suspicious since the coroutine will be suspended when event callbacks
are called.
Can you confirm if there aren't any problems if you debug a program in
wxLua 2.8.10 with an OnPaint event handler and a wxMenu callback,
debug past where the callbacks are connected and the event loop is
running. Then cover and uncover the frame to run the OnPaint handler
and open the menu item. Does it work as expected and can you debug
into the callback function? The minimal.wx.lua sample has both of
these and the wxLua.exe debugger works as expected. How does your use
of coroutines compare?
