[vbox-dev] How to create an object implementing VirtualBoxCallback from python?

[Narf]

Ok, I've discovered how I can do it. I had to create a class
implementing all the callback functions in the VirtualBoxCallback
interface and define a class attribute:

_com_interfaces_ = xpcom.components.interfaces.IVirtualBoxCallback

Now the problem is the callback functions are executed only when I
call a virtualbox function from my program, and not when the event is
produced. Is there any function I can call that puts my program to
sleep until there is a virtualbox event? Similar to the gtk.main()
loop, for example.

Thanks
