pydev_ipython/inputhook.py:127–168

Enable event loop integration with wxPython. Parameters ---------- app : WX Application, optional. Running application to use. If not given, we probe WX for an existing application object, and create a new one if none is found. Notes

(self, app=None)

        Parameters
        ----------
        app : WX Application, optional.
            Running application to use.  If not given, we probe WX for an
            existing application object, and create a new one if none is found.

        Notes
        -----
        This methods sets the ``PyOS_InputHook`` for wxPython, which allows
        the wxPython to integrate with terminal based applications like
        IPython.

        If ``app`` is not given we probe for an existing one, and return it if
        found.  If no existing app is found, we create an :class:`wx.App` as
        follows::

            import wx
            app = wx.App(redirect=False, clearSigInt=False)

        wx_version = V(wx.__version__).version  # @UndefinedVariable

        if wx_version < [2, 8]:
            raise ValueError("requires wxPython >= 2.8, but you have %s" % wx.__version__)  # @UndefinedVariable
