That isn't a problem in and of itself.  The code above could be used
with a wxFrame instead (with minor modifications).

Maybe a better idea of exactly what you want would help.  Your app has
only a single wxFrame?  You want that frame to return something?  To
what?  I would think when the frame "returns" the app would exit if it's
the only frame.
