Description (last modified by Gesner Passos) (diff)

Mathieu told me that the method _getHeldObject belongs to the old api. I've checked that it is used many times inside our code, and I'm wondering if we have to deal with it when switching off the old api.

So this ticket is to decide if we have to do anything about the current code where this method is being used.

The _getHeldObject actually exists in two unrelated places. The old Python API and in the Qt for handling widgets etc in Python.

My searches seem to suggest the remaining uses of _getHeldObject are either in example scripts that are no longer valid, the MDEvents/scripts ones, and in the Qt layer where they are required.

I'm going to mark this as invalid as I don't think it should hold anything up.
