[wxpython-users] how to manually trigger event

[Raffaello Barella]

Here is the gist of a mail I sent to the Forum on March 30, 2008:

def SendEvent (self, The Event, mycontrol):
    cmd =3D wx.CommandEvent(wx.EVT_COMBOBOX.evtType[0])
#  (if your control is not a wx.ComboBox, obviously change the event name,
and please write evtType exactly as I did)
    cmd.SetEventObject(mycontrol)
    cmd.SetId(mycontrol.GetId())
    mycontrol.GetEventHandler().ProcessEvent(cmd)

Tested and working.
