Good Morning Group,
I've been programming in Python (PythonWin32, ActiveState, Enthought...) for a year now. I have a new task of creating a stand alone application for Windows. I have my .py code already, now I'm looking for an easy to program (best if automatic programming) GUI. I found Glade, then Autoglade but sadly only for Ubuntu-devian, now I found IronPython Studio, but haven't found any Tutorial or users manual, an example, nothing!! Could you please give me advise on: * What to use for my GUI - very automatic please * Documentation of IronPython, preferably Studio... anything would help, even examples. It's about time and my lack of GUI programming knowledge... * If this book IronPython in Action or the new Pro IronPython gives any help in my case... Thanks so much, Angelica. M. Angelica Echavarria-Gregory, M.Sc., E.I. Ph.D Candidate University of Miami Phone 305 284-3611 _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@... http://lists.ironpython.com/listinfo.cgi/users-ironpython.com |

For a Windows Forms designer I use Visual Studio (Express) and compile the generated GUI into a class library which I import from IronPython. This technique, along with building Windows Forms applications in general is covered in IronPython in Action. For an IronPython IDE (without designer) I would recommend Wing, Netbeans, or SharpDevelop. http://ironpython-urls.blogspot.com/2009/05/using-ironpython-with-wing-and-netbeans.html Actually SharpDevelop has very good IronPython support including a Windows Forms designer and IronPython debugger. http://ironpython-urls.blogspot.com/2009/06/sharpdevelop-exploring-and-debugging.html http://ironpython-urls.blogspot.com/2009/05/ironpython-in-sharpdevelop-31-and.html > * > If this book IronPython in Action or the new Pro IronPython gives any help in my case... > Either would be very good, both would be better. :-) Michael > Thanks so much, > > Angelica. > > > > M.

What to use for my GUI - very automatic please Although this is not "very automatic"...if you have Visual Studio, you can just create your GUI in the designer, then copy the code from YourForm.designer.cs into a YourForm.py file. Replace "this" with "self", get rid of any existence of "new", convert any true or false values to True or False, remove the semicolons (not required though), etc. A few find-and-replaces turns C# code into working Python code :) Michael's suggestion of creating a class library may be more up your alley. His book does a great job of covering some GUI topics you may be interested in.

Yes, get Michael's book. I was also really lost until I got it.
I'm using IronPython Studio, but I'm not making any gui's, and I need to embed it in C# code, so that works for me. Like Michael said, it is very brittle. You must disable autocompletion otherwise it will destroy your python code, or at least make perfectly legitimate spacings uncompilable.

Libraries which are written in C (or depend on modules written in C) - which unfortunately includes numpy, Scipy and all the ones you mention - don't work with IronPython as it doesn't have the Python C API they use. *However*, there is a project called Ironclad (created by Resolver Systems) that provides the C API. It doesn't have 100% coverage yet - but significant proportions of numpy, scipy etc do work. http://www.resolversystems.com/documentation/index.php/Ironclad.html > and > > >> Replace "this" with "self", >> get rid of any existence of "new", convert any true or false values to True >> or False, remove the semicolons (not required though), etc. A few >> > f> ind-and-replaces turns C# code into working Python code :) > > 2).

There is a program on the net called cs2py, that will convert the gui code
produced by VS to python code for you. While this not a complicated process, and can be done with search & replace in any good editor, it's less likely to miss something.

Thanks Michael and Brian, I will follow all your advice, two more questions would be: 1. Do the Python packages that I used to produce my code (Numpy, Scipy, Sympy, pylab, matplotlib, Mayavi2) would load and execute using IronPython as you recommend?
