Hello Jeff,

thank you for this desciption.

Well, a little complicated, I must read/try this later,
but it looks promising to get the "last derived class" members ;)


Is there any possibility to simply get out
the classes and baseclasses of a class?

somfunc (y) => class A, B (where B is last).

Ok you can prepare a class, but I need to use
the existing wxPython classes.
