|phoenix_title|  **wx.lib.pubsub.utils.misc.Callback**
==========================================================================================================================================

This can be used to wrap functions that are referenced by class
data if the data should be called as a function. E.g. given
>>> def func(): pass
>>> class A:
....def __init__(self): self.a = func
then doing
>>> boo=A(); boo.a()
will fail since Python will try to call a() as a method of boo,
whereas a() is a free function. But if you have instead
"self.a = Callback(func)", then "boo.a()" works as expected.
