That's the second time that method has got me. They should have named
it GetResourceStreamInfo

But the problem still remains:

TypeError: default __new__ does not take parameters

Line 7: class MyTheme(Theme):
Line 8:     def __new__(cls):
Line 9:         return Theme.__new__(cls,
wpf.Application.GetResourceStream(wpf.Uri('theme.xaml',
wpf.UriKind.Relative)).Stream)
Line 10:
Line 11: def demo():

TypeError
at __new__ in app.py, line 9
at demo in app.py, line 12
at app.py in app.py, line 21
