Yes, the best way is not to connect with IDs and use wxID_AMY
and use Bind() just like in python.

However generating the Bind() code in python might be harder.
I don't know about python but in C++ you can bind to any object
and use "event sink" parameter to set the appropriate
handler.

Thank you.
