Dear wxPython,
I just compiled a version of wxWindows and wxPython.
I would like to say that the instructions to build them where easy to
understand, clear and efficient and that I succed buiding the library in
few minutes.
I had however to do some small steps that seems not to be included in the
instructions.
This mail is a kind of contribution to improve, for newbies, the building
proceess.
Here are the action I took to solve my small problems.
Copy setup.h
···
------------
wxPython setup was trying to find setup.h so I need to copy:
setup.h from wxWindows\include\wx\msw to wxWindows\include\wx
I modify slightly setup.py:
---------------------------
It seems that setup.py was unable to find gen_iface so I add at line 714 of
setup.py:
sys.path += [opj(CTRB_SRC, 'stc')]
so
os.chdir(opj(CTRB_SRC, 'stc'))
import gen_iface
gen_iface.main([])
os.chdir(cwd)
become:
os.chdir(opj(CTRB_SRC, 'stc'))
sys.path += [opj(CTRB_SRC, 'stc')]
import gen_iface
gen_iface.main([])
os.chdir(cwd)
FINAL
Actually for a strange reason I was trying to build the final version.
FINAL
-----
In order to do that and beyond the instruction I need change two flag in
setup.py
FINAL = 1
HYBRID = 0
SWIG
I also need to modify .i file so I was force to use wxswig.
USE_SWIG
--------
In order to do that and beyond the instruction I need to modify the
USE_SWIG flag in setup.py
USE_SWIG = 1
Ok that was just to tell that the instruction where great and that wxPython
is wonderfull. But for strange reason I always need a pretext to write in a
mailing list.
Vivian.
