[Ironpython-users] FW: IronPython WPF application

[Jackie Sproat]

I am simply trying to get the handle to a WPF window, but it doesn't seem to be working.
I am as new to WPF as I am to IronPython so please forgive me :)

>From what I have read I believe the handle is not getting set in __init__ because it is only available at run_time(?)
Therefore, have to add Loaded="Window_Loaded" in MyWindow.xaml so that handle is guaranteed to be set after window is loaded(?)
However, this requires a routed event handler which, I know nothing about but I do know the line:

    ((MyWindow)(target)).Loaded += System.Windows.RoutedEventHandler(this.Window_Loaded);
Works in C#, not sure what the equivalent line would be in IronPython?

Please help, I simply want to run MyWindow and get a handle to it!


Here is a snippet of my code:
class MyWindow(Window):
    def __init__(self):
        wpf.LoadComponent(self, 'WpfApp_Test.xaml')
        self.hWnd = WindowInteropHelper(self).Handle #self.hWnd is not getting set
        dir(self.hWnd)
    def Window_Loaded(self):
        self.hWnd = WindowInteropHelper(self).Handle #never gets called

if __name__ == '__main__':
       Application().Run(MyWindow())
    #((MyWindow)(target)).Loaded += System.Windows.RoutedEventHandler(MyWindow().Window_Loaded)

Actual, WPF IronPython app (VS2010) is contained in .zip folder attached (just need to rename .zzz to .zip and decompress)

Cheers,
Jackie
