[PythonCE] Seeking alternative to wxPython

2006-08-21 Thread jeffbarish
When I embarked on my programming project, I had hoped that my choice of wxPython would make it possible for me to run my program without too much difficulty on Linux, Win XP, Win Mobile, and OSX, but so far I have not been able to get it to run reliably on even one platform, least of all winCE.

Here are descriptions of some problems I have encountered with the recent port of wxPython: 1. On startup, I get the error message: Please install a newer version of comctl32.dll (at least version 4.70 is required by you have 0.00) or this program will not operate correctly. 2. wx.NullColour doe

Did you ever resolve this issue? When I installed wxPython on a first PDA, it worked fine right away. However, I just installed it on a second one of the exact same model (Dell Axim X51v) with the exact same memory complement and have encountered the same problem you reported. I get the error m

Never mind. It turns out that the synchronization did not transfer any files, only folders. (Have I mentioned recently that I hate winCE?) OK, my application seems to run. Problem 1: I am still getting the message "Please install a newer version of comctl32.dll (at least version 4.70 is requir

Can you provide a little more information about how to install your software? I have \Program Files\Python24 on my PDA. I put wxwince270_evc_custom.dll in this folder. There is already a Lib folder there, so I put the wx folder in the existing Lib folder. import wx produces No module named wx.

[PythonCE] Port wxPython to Windows Mobile 5

I posted this plea on comp.python.wxpython yesterday, but I want to be sure that everyone who might be able to help sees it. I am desperately interested in having a current port of wxPython to Windows Mobile -- to the point that I am willing to pay someone out of my own pocket to do it. I'm sure

Thank you for the suggestion. I should have mentioned before that I did try to run setup-registry (and also Setup Registry). Both are still present in the lib folder. However, neither will run, producing the same message I get whenever I try to do anything (The file 'setup-registry' cannot be o

[PythonCE] Reverting to PythonCE 2.3

I wanted to try the new PythonCE 2.4 that Luke published. It loaded easily and worked great -- except that wxPython will not work with it. Accordingly, I need to go back to 2.3. I kept backups of everything, so I thought that I was safe, but of course this is Windows so nothing is easy. Python

Re: [PythonCE] Using buttons on PDA

Yes indeed. To be precise, I found that the rocker button on my Dell Axim X51v triggers 5 wxPython events: WXK_LEFT, WXK_RIGHT, WXK_UP, WXK_DOWN, and WXK_RETURN. I have not detected any wxPython events when I push the program keys, so I suspect that they are dealt with by winCE before getting to
