This is the "abstract" superclass of all _app classes.
There is one subclass for each bll application. The launcher module instantiates the appropriate subclass to start the application. This provides a single entry point (the launcher module) for all applications. Subclasses should override the start method to do whatever they need to do to start the app.

Constructor.
| self | |
| app_name | (string) module name (name of a file from the app/ directory) of the app being started |
| app_type | (int) a value from the static enum App.APP_TYPES, indicating whether or not to initialize GUI stuff. |
| app_icon_filename | (string=None) path to the icon to use for this application (pass None if this is not a GUI-based app). This icon will be shown in the upper left corner of the title bar of all windows. The path may be absolute, or may be relative to the directory from which launcher.py is being called (typically this is the same directory that is specified by the BLL_APP_ROOT_DIR constant in launcher.py). |
| def app.app.App.event_loop | ( | self | ) |
This method starts the gtk+ event loop.
This causes the app to start accepting input from input devices like the keyboard and mouse. launcher.py only calls this if the app instance is App.APP_TYPES.GUI
