Is this the accepted/correct way to check if one is on wxPython 2.4 or 2.5/2.6?
if int(wx.__version__[2]) >= 5:
Best regards
Werner
O.K. this is a bit more complex it seems as below won't work on 2.4.
What I am trying to do is move matplotlib backend to the 2.5 namespace. John Hunter would like to keep the modules compatible with wxPython 2.4.
As my first go doesn't work I do it now before import, i.e.:
try:
import wx.__version__ as version
wxVersion = int(version[2])
from wxPython.wx import *
del version
except:
import wxPython.__version__ as version
wxVersion = int(version[2])
import wx
del version
and then do this
if wxVersion >= 5:
Would this be o.k. or is there a nicer/more acceptable way of doing this.
Best regards
Werner

use wx.VERSION_STRING
for example:
ver = wx.VERSION_STRING
if ver > '2.4': ....
or
if ver< '2.5.5': ....
you can even look for specific versions 
like in:
if ver.startswith('2.5.5.0'): ....

Thanks Andrea and Peter,
If one would remember these simple things :-[
See you

2.4 implements the wx namespace as well. 2.4 uses the flat namespace natively, but implements a mapping to the new namespace, while 2.5.* uses the wx namespace natively, an implements a mapping to the old one.
So, you should be able to use the new namespace with 2.4. and 2.5 There are other differences, so it might make sense to have version specific code anyway.

I was aware of that but initially couldn't find how to check the version, but Andrea and Peter fixed me up on this.
For the matplotlib stuff the only conditional code was the "self.bind" stuff and the "printer.GetLastError()" which I can't find a solution for in 2.4.
John is trying the updated stuff out (see matplotlib newsgroup), he noted a difference for figsize which is not respected in the updated stuff but I don't think I touched that.
See you

I've played with 2.4+2.5 support for an app I made before moving away from 2.4
attached is a script I've used to minimize the impact on the code. (only one, easy commentable "import wxfix" statement)
Maybe it can help you somehow
