I would like a function to be executed every x often.
I was just wondering how to pass the following code correctly. my
object t just doesn't know what checkMail is. How can I tell it that
checkMail is a member of the class MyApp?

thanks in advance,
code is below


class MyApp(wx.App):
def OnInit(self):


frame = wxMainFrame(None, "thing")
icon = wx.Icon('foo.bmp', wx.BITMAP_TYPE_ICO)
frame.SetIcon(icon)
self.SetTopWindow(frame)

t = timeit.Timer("checkMail()","30.0")

t.timeit()
return True


def checkMail():

print "The number of messages is"

Reread the documentation for timeit. It doesn't do what you think it does.

Look at wxTimer instead.

I've seen both documentation for using timeit as simply a timer to
measure preformance, but also a random page here and there that looked
to me as if they were using it as a simple timer. HOwever, if there is
a wxwidget timer I'll gladly hit that up. Thanks for the info
