Re: Probably a stupid question-GnomeMDI&GnomeApp

[Hassan Aurag <aurag crm umontreal ca>]

 Well,

This is what I did.

I did:

mdi=GnomeMDI("whatever", "whatever")
mdi_child=GnomeMDIGenericChild("whatever", win._o)
mdi.add_child(mdi_child)
mdi.add_view(mdi_child)

It gives UI warning of an invalid cast from GnomeApp to GnomeMDIChild

Does this mean it works but warns about something? My guess is that it 
actually doesn't work!

Btw, for James, I have noticed some typos in pygnome!

Do I submit the patches to you?
