Creating subclass for wx.TextCtrl

Question

I\'m creating a subclass for the wx.TextCtrl in wxpython.

I want this class to add extra data to the wx.TextCtrl widgets similar as to the way extra data can be added to

Answer 1

Instead of creating a subclass I just decided to create my own class which links an extra string value to wx.textCtrl widgets.

Thanks to all who contributed! :)

Heres my code:

class TextDataHolder:
    def __init__(self, wxTextControl, data):

        self.wxTextControl=wxTextControl
        self.data=data

    def setDataTxt(self,data):
        self.wxTextControl=wxTextControl
        self.data=data

    def getDataTxt(self):
        return self.data

Heres how I implemented it:

import wx, TextDataHolder

exampleCtrl=wx.TextCtrl(self, -1, "Hello")
exampleData=TextDataHolder.TextDataHolder(exampleCtrl,"Sup?")
print exampleData.getDataTxt() #prints 'Sup?'
