I am running wxPython as part of pythonaddins (Add-In) under ArcGIS 10.1 on windows 7, but when I run the same Add-In on a machine with windows 8 then it crashes ArcGIS 10.1 without giving any error after couple of steps. Can I anyone please comment if it is due to Windows 8 or else? Thanks.
Hello Ibraheem.
First of all I need to say that Windows is not a place for development. Do you really think that it executes your programs in real way. If yes, correct it. The OS runs the programs which are compiled by the developers (not system users). You can’t even edit/modify/redistribute the internal programs of the OS.
So, I strictly recommend you to download a GNU/Linux distro. All the programs works pretty fine there. I am sure to say that it is the actual place for development.

This message is neither helpful nor accurate. You are arguing about
religion, not technical merit.

Thanks Tim, for this moderate reply to a foolish comment.

I too use ArcGIS 10.2 I can’t speak for what you imply about pythonaddins. ArcGIS uses Geoprocessing tools that uses Python 2.6 engine. It’s a sort-of ESRI’s version of wxpython.
Jason Pardy from Esri
quotes “We do hope to support wxPython in the future as the Python UI Framework for hooking into ArcGIS Desktop.” That will be a
good day indeed.

Hello all.
I still don’t thinks that my comment was foolish. All you have to use a GNU/Linux distro. You want to enjoy the real freedom in your computer. If you use it before, you may not use other proprietary distros. I’m not arguing about religion. Please check it out and comment later.

Everyone here who wants to be is already familiar with Linux. This is *not* a forum for evangelizing linux. It is *not* about helping people switch to linux. This is *not* a forum for telling people (or even strongly implying) that all developers who choose to not use linux as a development platform are misinformed or stupid. And this is definitely *not* the place to tell people that if they call it "linux" instead of "GNU/Linux" that they don't know what they are talking about.
This *IS* a forum for evangelizing wxPython on *any* of the supported platforms. It *IS* a place where experienced users can help inexperienced users. It *IS* a place that fosters a community of people who like or who want to learn wxPython. Telling a large portion of that community that they are clueless because of the platform they choose to use tears down the community, it does not build it up. If you have opinions that go counter this community and its goals then please feel free to express them someplace else.

AND ON TOP: The strength of wxPython is that it supports MANY
platforms. Freedom is also in choice (as in: choice of platform).
Cheers
