Distributing Python programs
by NEWS Jan. 29, 2004

Jan. 29, 2004

Can I install Python on a networked server and have any user run Python programs without having to go through the 9Mb client install? What are my options for distributing Python programs to my users? Thankyou to anyone who can help. Graham

"static" checking
by Moosebumps Jan. 29, 2004

Jan. 29, 2004

I'm wondering what kind of checking I can do on a python program before running it (besides reading over every line). I hate running a long python script, only to have it fail at the end because I misspelled a function name, or made some other silly mistake that a compiler would normally catch. Then I have to run it all over again to see what happened or come up with some sort of short test. I usually do try to isolate the new parts of my code, and run them first with some dummy data that will run fast. But that is not always possible because of dependencies, and it would be nice to have some sort of sanity check up front. I noticed there is a "check" function in IDLE, and I've tried running it but it never does anything. Maybe it is not catching the kinds of errors that are biting me. thanks, MB

Certainly using the standard module : from webrowser import open as openbrow openbrow('help.html') works under windows ! 'm a bit worried about not being able to supply an absolute path... am wondering if the current working directory will always get set correctly on other platforms..... Hmmm... to be fair - I'm not sure how likely my application is to be run on anything other than windows. Thanks.

Re: wxPython: images from URLs
by pythonguy＠Hotpop.com Jan. 29, 2004

This is the straight forward way to do this in wxPython but somehow it always pops up that ugly error window. I remember trying many options to do this purely using wxPython (wxWindows), but I failed. If you use PIL in your program you can conver the wx Image instance to a PIL image of type BMP and then display it by reconverting it back to the wxImage instance. PyWiew has methods to do this. The source code is available somewhere in my Python page at http://members.lycos.co.uk/anandpillai . I no longer maintain that program, but the latest source code should be available there.
