wx.BusyCursor

This class makes it easy to tell your user that the program is temporarily busy.

Just create a wx.BusyCursor object on the stack, and within the current scope, the hourglass will be shown.

For example:

# Normal usage
wait = wx.BusyCursor()
for i in range(10000):
    DoACalculation()
del wait

# It can be used as a context manager too
with wx.BusyCursor():
    for i in range(10000):
        DoACalculation()

It works by calling wx.BeginBusyCursor in the constructor, and wx.EndBusyCursor in the destructor.
