Code Walkthrough

• guiBasics.py

• Each supported toolkit is encapsulated in its own class.

• main() constructs an object of each toolkit type

• During construction, each object:

  • Calls initializeWidgets(self) which returns generated title
  • Creates the 'top level' (main application) window
  • Sets the title of the top level window
  • Calls buildGui() to build the window hierarchy and set up the event handlers [_buttonPressed(), _textEntered()]
  • Shows the top level window
  • Starts the main event loop
