Migrating to 2.6

wxPython Users
1

I am replying to myself because I just realised
my silly mistake. The original wx directory from 2.4 was being picked up. I
only renamed the wxPython directory.

Bob

I am trying to migrate a
2.4 application to 2.6. on Windows. I have installed the 2.6 unicode release
alongside my 2.4 release. Wxversion only seemed to see the 2.6 version but my
application still picked up 2.4 so I renamed the directory. I am using Boa
0.4.4 which seems happy with using 2.6.

Clearly 2.6 works as Boa
loads and runs. However, the code that Boa drops does not work and the packages
don’t seem to be as described in the migration document.

import wx

Traceback (most recent
call last):

File
“<pyshell#0>”, line 1, in -toplevel-

import

wx

File
“C:\PYTHON~1\lib\site-packages\wx_init_.py”, line 45, in
-toplevel-

from

wxPython import wx

File
“C:\PYTHON~1\Lib\site-packages\wx-2.6-msw-unicode\wxPython_init_.py”,
line 10, in -toplevel-

import

_wx

File
“C:\PYTHON~1\Lib\site-packages\wx-2.6-msw-unicode\wxPython_wx.py”,
line 3, in -toplevel-

from

_core import *

File
“C:\PYTHON~1\Lib\site-packages\wx-2.6-msw-unicode\wxPython_core.py”,
line 15, in -toplevel-

import

wx._core

ImportError: No module
named _core

import
wxPython

import wx

I thought there was also
a compatibility mode where I could still say:

From wxPython.wx import *

Could someone please put
me straight on this.

Thanks

Bob

Hi Bob,

You might want to convert your code - check out the code upgrader under the Boa Tools menu.

See you
