The bulk of my application is hand coded, and I'm planing to use cdxml dForm

(instantiated as Modal) to edit simple records.

I'm experimenting with such a form, but ran into a PyDeadObjectError

exception that I can figure out how to avoid. his exception is significant

since I can no longer reinstantiate the same form!

Here's my traceback:

Traceback (most recent call last):

wx._core.PyDeadObjectError: The C++ part of the dForm_43298 object has been

deleted, attribute access no longer allowed.

The "form" (dialog) class is created from the cdxml file in the normal way.

Since I pass a bizobj to the dialog with the record to edit, I have my own

method to show the form:

# This method lives in the dialog

def showForm(self, contactsBizobj, usage):

# set the forms Bizobj - this makes the form reusable for different

origins

# of contacts (e.g. Children of account, children of opportunity, ...)

self.VCRactive = True

self.addBizobj(contactsBizobj)

self.requery()

if usage == 'NewRec':

self.new()

self.show()

#to close the form I just use close:

## *!* ## Dabo Code ID: dButton-dPanel-956

def onHit(self, evt):

self.Form.close()

I suppose this is either a wxPython or a Dabo bug, since I'm not doing

anything special here.

Platform: Mac

Python Version: 2.5.4 on darwin
