[wxPython] What problems will I have?

wxPython Users

Hi,
I 'm running Redhat 7.0. However I did update my glibc libs to 2.2
as well as the common system packages. I also updated to python 2.0.
I'm now getting ready to install wxGTK-2.2.5 followed by wxPython-2.2.5.

So, what problems should I expect?
Also, am I right in assuming that wxGTK is wxWindow?
Thanks.
Wayne

You're going to end up with exactly the same setup as I have at home
then. I haven't noticed any important differences from that to my
work setup which is all older packages on rh6.1

So, what problems should I expect?

I have noticed a slower startup time for wxP apps than I see on my
work system, which is odd given that the home system has twice the
CPU speed and four times the RAM. You will also probably notice
that the combination of wxP and Sawfish leads to odd window placement.

Also, am I right in assuming that wxGTK is wxWindow?

Yes, it's the GTK+ wrapper implementation of wxWindows.

Regards,
Denny

You can also get a PDF of the docs from the wxwindows site.
