Detailed Description

The Python command class This is a special type of command class.

It's used to bind a Python command class into the FreeCAD command framework. An object of this class gets a reference to the Python command object and manages all the passing between the C++ and the Python world. This includes everything like setting resources such as bitmaps, activation or bindings to the user interface.
