522 | <h2>Python</h2> | |
523 | ||
524 | Python is an interpreted, interactive, object-oriented programming | |
525 | language often compared to Tcl, Perl, Scheme, or Java. | |
526 | ||
527 | <p> Python combines remarkable power with very clear syntax. It has | |
528 | modules, classes, exceptions, very high level dynamic data types, and | |
529 | dynamic typing. There are interfaces to many system calls and | |
530 | libraries, and new built-in modules are easily written in C or | |
531 | C++. Python is also usable as an extension language for applications | |
532 | that need a programmable interface. <p> | |
533 | ||
534 | <h2>wxWindows</h2> | |
535 | ||
536 | wxWindows is a free C++ framework designed to make cross-platform | |
537 | programming child's play. Well, almost. wxWindows 2 supports Windows | |
538 | 3.1/95/98/NT, Unix with GTK/Motif/Lesstif, with a Mac version | |
539 | underway. Other ports are under consideration. <p> | |
540 | ||
541 | wxWindows is a set of libraries that allows C++ applications to | |
542 | compile and run on several different types of computers, with minimal | |
543 | source code changes. There is one library per supported GUI (such as | |
544 | Motif, or Windows). As well as providing a common API (Application | |
545 | Programming Interface) for GUI functionality, it provides | |
546 | functionality for accessing some commonly-used operating system | |
547 | facilities, such as copying or deleting files. wxWindows is a | |
548 | 'framework' in the sense that it provides a lot of built-in | |
549 | functionality, which the application can use or replace as required, | |
550 | thus saving a great deal of coding effort. Basic data structures such | |
551 | as strings, linked lists and hash tables are also supported. | |
552 | ||
553 | <p> | |
554 | <h2>wxPython</h2> | |
555 | ||
556 | wxPython is a Python extension module that encapsulates the wxWindows | |
557 | GUI classes. Currently it is only available for the Win32 and GTK | |
558 | ports of wxWindows, but as soon as the other ports are brought up to | |
559 | the same level as Win32 and GTK, it should be fairly trivial to | |
560 | enable wxPython to be used with the new GUI. | |
561 | ||
562 | <p> | |
563 | ||
564 | The wxPython extension module attempts to mirror the class heiarchy | |
565 | of wxWindows as closely as possible. This means that there is a | |
566 | wxFrame class in wxPython that looks, smells, tastes and acts almost | |
567 | the same as the wxFrame class in the C++ version. Unfortunately, | |
568 | because of differences in the languages, wxPython doesn't match | |
569 | wxWindows exactly, but the differences should be easy to absorb | |
570 | because they are natural to Python. For example, some methods that | |
571 | return multiple values via argument pointers in C++ will return a | |
572 | tuple of values in Python. | |
573 | ||
574 | <p> | |
575 | ||
576 | There is still much to be done for wxPython, many classes still need | |
577 | to be mirrored. Also, wxWindows is still somewhat of a moving target | |
578 | so it is a bit of an effort just keeping wxPython up to date. On the | |
579 | other hand, there are enough of the core classes completed that | |
580 | useful applications can be written. | |
581 | ||
582 | <p> | |
583 | ||
584 | wxPython is close enough to the C++ version that the majority of | |
585 | the wxPython documentation is actually just notes attached to the C++ | |
586 | documents that describe the places where wxPython is different. There | |
587 | is also a series of sample programs included, and a series of | |
588 | documentation pages that assist the programmer in getting started | |
589 | with wxPython. | |
