Question

I am working with python and gtk.
There is a checker thread, which looks for variables. If all conditions are ok, it should raise an event to the gtk.main loop. The raised event should open a window and start some other things.

its something like this:

if x==True and y==True:
   raise event

def event:
   newWindow()

Please give a code example how to implement this

Answer 1

So.. got it done by myself.

the code is easy:

import gobject

class XX(gobject.GObject):
    # define signal parameters
    __gsignals__ = { 'signal-name' : (gobject.SIGNAL_RUN_FIRST, gobject.SIGNAL_TYPE_NONE, ())}

    gobject.__init__(self)

    def __init__(self):
        # some code

    def function(self):
        # emit signal
        self.emit('signal-name')
