Subject: How to find the event type in wxPerl?
Dear wxPerl experts
In wxPython, you can find an event type by calling a method (or property?)
"typeId".
See examples below.
It seems that there is no such functionality in wxPerl (maybe since
"EVT_SOMETHING"
in wxPerl encapsulates the call to the event binder, while in wxPython,
"EVT_SOMETHING" is a lower-level subroutine?)
Finding the event type enables you to mimic (or artificially trigger) a
widget command event.
This is sometimes necessary, for testing purposes and other programmatic
purposes.
(It's necessary in order to mimic existing events, not only for custom,
user-defined events).
Is there a way to get the EVT_SOMETHING.typeId functionality in wxPerl?
Many TIA
Helen

1.

(in: https://svn.ceon.pl/research/SegmEdit/SegmEditGUI/controls.py)
2.
> printevent = wx.PyCommandEvent(EVT_PRINT_MESSAGE.typeId, ID_PRINT_MESSAGE)
