I have wxpython app that open wx.DirDialog on button click.
dlg = wx.DirDialog(self, "Choose a directory:", style=wx.DD_DEFAULT_STYLE)
if dlg.ShowModal() == wx.ID_OK:
# Do some stuff
Since my application is multithreaded and uses wxTaskbaricon which allow user (on Win 7) to close application even when modal DirDialog is open, I want to close the DirDialog before closing main app. Somehow non of below method work:
dlg.Destroy()
dlg.Close(True)
It is my testing code.
I can test Destroy()
, Close()
and EndModal()
on Modal and Non-Modal wx.DirDialog()
To close modal dialog I had to use Timer - because modal dialog is blocking access to the main window.
It can't close dialog only if I do
self.dlg = None
self.dlg.EndModal(wx.CANCEL) # or Destroy() or Close(True)
And one more thing - I use Linux Mint 15, Python 2.7.4, wxPython 2.8.12.1 :)
