[vtkusers] wxVTKRenderWindowInteractor.py fails on OSX with VTK Cocoa build

[Dan White]

Hi OS X VTKers, like Sean, Gaetan,  et al,

We notice that wxVTKRenderWindowInteractor.py
is failing for VTK Ccoca builds:

here is the VTK bug report i filed....

did anyone else run into that?
Does anyone else use xwPython for a GUI on OSX?

cheers

Dan


Cocoa enabled build of VTK CVS on OSX 10.5.2 with 10.5 SDK
-arch -i386;86_64
cocoa needed for 64 bit VTK, carbon is not 64 bit and is depreciated.

wxVTKRenderWindowInteractor.py throws a type error as it is getting  
only 1 argument when expecting 2
in onPaint. This does not happen wiht a Carbon build of VTK,
so there must be some thing wrong with the way cocoa vtk render window  
is talking to wx render window interactor?
This bug also shows up in BioImageXD with a VTK cocoa build, as it  
also uses wx.
(again carbon vtk works as expected, but cant build 64 bit with  
carbon, and never will be able to )
