I am new to Python, so decided to undertake eric4 installation as first
project. As per PyQT download page, the binary installer includes
QT/QScintella and PyQT. Is it still required to install QT 4.4
(~160MB???)and QScintella seperately? Is there any online resource which
covers step by step detail installation process (each and every piece
required in exact order to run eric4 successfully) on WinXP. Also, what
and how to use twisted python using eric4. What type of configuration
will be required to use twisted in eric environment?
Thank you,
ND.
Maybe this article on my site will help?

See for the section regarding installing Eric4 IDE.
Hi,
that is a neat installation procedure! However, didn't you miss the
installation steps for QScintilla, sip and the QScintilla Python bindings?

Hi Detlev,
Well, to my humble opinion, I don't think so. Although it is mentioned
on your as well as on the PyQt site that there are some other
dependencies to be taken into account, I didn't need them while I was
installing the whole Python-PyQt-Eric4 IDE, both at home as well as at
my work. And so far, I didn't face any problems; all works fine without
those extra packages.
Could of course be that some parts are only needed in specific
situations/applications, but so far I didn't miss anything.
For instance: I downloaded the SourceForge project Spyrit (I really
advise everybody who starts the "tuple" Python/PyQt/Eric4 to look into
that code, even if it's only for the purpose of learning the combination
Python/PyQt), which makes use of the package 'sip'. I can run/debug
this app without any problems. So, I guess one way or another those
dependencies, if really needed, must have been implicitly installed by
one of the 3 beforementioned installation packages.
If I would find out that there are (or someone else can point me to)
missing packages/installations, I'll immediately update my website and
come back on this subject here in the forum.
PS: thanks that you appreciate my small contribution to the community... :-)
