I'm having a problem with the code below. When I run it the progress bar will pulse for around 10 secs as meant to and then move on to downloading and will show the progress but when finished it will not move on to the next step it just locks up.

self.function = function
self.parent = parent
self.arg = arg
self.parent.still_working = True
def run(self): # when does "run" get executed?
self.parent.still_working = True
if self.arg == None:
self.function()
else:
self.function(self.arg)
self.parent.still_working = False
def stop(self):
self = None
class MainWindow:

gtk.gdk.threads_init()
self.wTree = gtk.Builder()
self.wTree.add_from_file("gui.glade")
self.mainWindows()
def mainWindows(self):
self.mainWindow = self.wTree.get_object("frmMain")
dic = {
"on_btnNext_clicked" : self.mainWindowNext,
}
self.wTree.connect_signals(dic)
self.mainWindow.show()
self.installerStep = 0 # 0 = none, 1 = preinstall, 2 = download, 3 = install info, 4 = install
#gtk.main()
self.mainWindowNext()
def pulse(self):
self.wTree.get_object("progress").pulse()
if self.still_working == False:
self.mainWindowNext()
return self.still_working
def preinstallStep(self):
self.wTree.get_object("progress").set_fraction(0)
self.wTree.get_object("btnNext").set_sensitive(0)
self.wTree.get_object("notebook1").set_current_page(0)
self.installerStep = 1
WT = WorkerThread(self.heavyWork, self) #Would do a heavy function here like setup some thing
WT.start()
gobject.timeout_add(75, self.pulse)
def downloadStep(self):
self.wTree.get_object("progress").set_fraction(0)
self.wTree.get_object("btnNext").set_sensitive(0)

urllib.urlretrieve('http://mozilla.mirrors.evolva.ro//firefox/releases/3.6.3/win32/en-US/Firefox%20Setup%203.6.3.exe', '/tmp/firefox.exe', self.updateHook)
self.mainWindowNext()
def updateHook(self, blocks, blockSize, totalSize):
percentage = float ( blocks * blockSize ) / totalSize
if percentage > 1:
percentage = 1
self.wTree.get_object("progress").set_fraction(percentage)
while gtk.events_pending():
gtk.main_iteration()
def installInfoStep(self):
self.wTree.get_object("btnNext").set_sensitive(1)
self.wTree.get_object("notebook1").set_current_page(1)
self.installerStep = 3
def installStep(self):
self.wTree.get_object("progress").set_fraction(0)
self.wTree.get_object("btnNext").set_sensitive(0)
self.wTree.get_object("notebook1").set_current_page(0)
self.installerStep = 4
WT = WorkerThread(self.heavyWork, self) #Would do a heavy function here like setup some thing
WT.start()
gobject.timeout_add(75, self.pulse)
def mainWindowNext(self, widget = None):
if self.installerStep == 0:
self.preinstallStep()
elif self.installerStep == 1:
self.downloadStep()
elif self.installerStep == 2:
self.installInfoStep()
elif self.installerStep == 3:
self.installStep()
elif self.installerStep == 4:
sys.exit(0)
def heavyWork(self):
time.sleep(10)
if __name__ == '__main__':
MainWindow()
gtk.main()
I have a feeling that its something to do with:
while gtk.events_pending():
gtk.main_iteration()
Is there a better way of doing this?
