Hi,

Thanks for the response.

But that would respond to "command" only - it doesn't
respond to mouseClick and other events.

use the 'command' option in the button definition

I *think* that should do it, but I'm not in a position to try it out 
right now, so I'm afraid it's an untested suggestion.

Re: [Pythoncard-users] Creating dynamic window - addMethod revisited

[John H. <ec...@ya...>]

Thanks for the response.

While waiting, I experimented and I came up with a
Python way (as oppose to the PythonCard way) to do it.
 See attached file.

When you run the attached program, each time a button
is pushed, a new button is created.  When that new
button is pushed, yet another new button gets
created...so on and so forth...

Ain't Python fun?

http://pythoncard.sourceforge.net/text/addmethod.txt

addMethod was the way to do it in versions of PythonCard prior to  
release 0.8, but when I changed to event binding to a more efficient  
static system, rather than looking for event handlers each time an  
event fires, the old addMethod stopped working as described.

Now, for some reason I thought that I was going to have to redo the  
"magic" code in model.py for the addMethod method, so I let this  
issue hanging. However, I just did a little experiment which seemed  
to work fine, so let me know if this works for you. Simply add your  
event handlers to your code BEFORE you create the components you want  
the events to bind to:

 >>> def on_btn1_mouseClick(self, event):
... 	self.components.field1.text = event.target.name
...
 >>> self.addMethod(on_btn1_mouseClick)
 >>> comp['btn1'] = {'type':'Button', 'name':'btn1', 'position':(0,  
30), 'label':'btn1 hello'}

Other than the last two lines this is identical to the way it used to  
work, we're simply making sure the event handler method is added to  
our code before the component is created so its event binding works  
correctly.

Now, assuming I didn't just get lucky, this is pretty nice that it  
works again, but this example is done totally in the shell with the  
minimal.py sample application. What I can't remember offhand, is  
which Python module and method you need to use to pass in an  
arbitrary string and get back a function that we can do something  
with. For example, compiling...

c = someComboOfCompileAndEval('def on_btn1_mouseClick(self, event): 
\n    self.components.field1.text = event.target.name\n\n')
self.addMethod(c)

Maybe it is a combination of compile and eval, but the correct  
globals and locals will have to be passed in order for it to make  
sense as a method. I could probably dig into the Python interpreter  
to see what it is doing with the text at the shell prompt, but if you  
know, please post to the list.

I've been searching the net for this topic and the one

sounds like something I can use.  However, there is no

Could somebody please help.

When I create a button on the fly - with a name

Re: [Pythoncard-users] Creating dynamic window

[<kc1...@ya...>]

Okay, answering my own question:

I discovered the noresource.py in the samples
directory and followed it to create a textfield at run
time.  After that, I went a little further and setup a
button on the fly.  In fact, I can have a function
on_Button1_mouseClick which in turn create another
button so that when I click on button1, it creates yet
another button.  All works.  See attached.

However, how do I create the event handler on the fly?
 In my sample, I pre-defined the routine
on_Button1_mouseClick but that's not going to work for
the general case.

So, how can I define the event handler on the fly?

[Pythoncard-users] Creating dynamic window

[<kc1...@ya...>]

Hi list,

I have a need to create an ap that changes at run time
depends on what choices were selected.  I have a tree
control on the left, a static text area on the top
right, and now I like to have other components on the
lower right but it would depend on what the user
clicked on the tree.

The obvious way would be to design one dialog window
for each of the tree branches, and then when selected,
pop up the dialog window and off it goes.  The problem
is that not only would that be very boring, it is a
*lot* of work because I have lots of branches - close
to 100.

What I am hoping is to simply have a template document
that says when clicked on branch 1, I need a static
text, followed by a button, a .... and so forth.  I
kind of have this document already.  Now I need to
figure out how to create these components on the fly.

Does anybody has a simple example on how this can be
done?  I notice, for example, with the PythonCard
layout Editor, the Property Editor in effect changes
as a function of what the user clicks.  So this is
something doable.  I did a brief look at the source
code and its too big and complex program to chew on. 
I am hoping that somebody has a simpler example.

Thanks,

No problems on this machine with Windows XP SP2 + IE 7, though I will 
admit that I don't run PythonCard a huge amount on it yet because most 
of those projects are still on my NT box that I'm (very) slowly 
decommissioning.

The layouts all look OK for my apps and the editors. I presume the bug 
report is referring to the menu editor's "OK" and "Cancel" buttons? I 
can see both, no problem. I'm using wxPython 2.8.x - could this be the 
reason?

I'm not entirely sure why David McNab's suggestion wasn't adopted,  
though it appears it would need some tweaks to work with the various  
types of containers we support now. But in general I think the reason  
we never allowed for directly overriding the event is that  
OnLinkClicked just doesn't work like most wxWidgets events and we  
probably need to create our own wrapper event to do this properly.

Anyway, the solution for you is to create an appcomponents directory  
where you have your main application files. Copy the components/ 
htmlwindow.py file to that directory and modify OnLinkClicked in that  
file to do what you want. Alternatively, create an htmlwindow.py file  
in  the appcomponents directory and subclass the HtmlWindow component  
that only modifies the OnLinkClicked method.

The appcomponents directory is checked for components before  
PythonCard looks at PythonCard/components so that allows you to add  
your own components as well as override any of the defaults.

[Pythoncard-users] getting errors when tryin gto execute a script using runfile command.

[Madhubala <mad...@in...>]

I am using py.shell as console in one of my gui applications. There are two
option to execute a script in this console.

 

 

One is shell.run("execfile(fileName)",False,False) . This displays output on
console. 

 

But I want to display script also along with output.

 

When  I want to run a script with script displaying in the console of a
shell , I am using  shell.runfile(filename). But in this case, there is a
problem. In certain cases the execution of this command displays indentation
errors on the console.

 

       As the file is a mix of source + commands. If I eliminate the blank
lines in source like class definition then if the script contains only that
class and few commands then it is working fine.

 

   But this is not the case for all the scripts where in I can have classes
and commands but as they are getting pushed to the console , if there is no
blank line between class and command/another source(if/while loop) it is
considering as continuos  source and throwing indentation errors. 

 

Is any one having a solution or patch?

 

Thanks,

Madhubala

[Pythoncard-users] Monitor CPU on up to for Windows Systems

[Russell E. <rus...@gm...>]

Ever wondered how your windows-based web server, application server,
and database server are performing but you can't see them all at once?
 The attached files contain a simple CPU monitoring program developed
using PythonCard that displays the CPU utilisation of up to four
systems.  By design, the first system is the one from which the
monitor is launched (for me that is my PC) and the other three (or
less) are listed in the configuration file.  You will need to edit the
configuration file to record the names of the systems you wish to
monitor and the application should work straight away.

The development was in Python 2.5.1 and PythoCard 0.8.2 and the Inno
Setup Compiler is version 5.1.11.

If you want an associated icon, edit the SystemMonitor.rsrc.py file on
line 10 to remove the leading ### and replace the *** YOUR ICON
FILENAME *** with the name of your icon file.

There is a setup.py file to create an executable and, as this is
expecting the name of the icon file, it will require editing before
setup can be run.  When running the setup, I used the python setup.py
py2exe --bundle=2 command.

There is also an Inno Setup file SystemMonitor.iss that will require
some heavy modification for your program location and the icon file
name (again).

I hope it works on your system and that you find it useful.  I expect
that it could be significantly improved, both in functionality and
implementation.  However, it works well for me...

No problem - what you need to do is as follows:

1. Open a shell session (xterm, konsole, gnome-terminal, whatever you 
prefer)
2. Type 'su -' and enter your root password
3. Type 'cd /home/julian/<blah>', replacing the '<blah>' part with the 
directory where you've put all of the PythonCard files from the tarball
4. Type 'python ./setup.py install'

If you get any error messages at step (4), you may need to type 'python 
./setup.py build' followed by 'python ./setup.py install' - it's been a 
while since I installed PythonCard from the source tarball, and I can't 
remember whether the 'install' part is clever enough to realize that the 
'build' part needs to be done as well.

This will put everything in the right places ad you ought to be able to 
run the samples to prove that it all works. Good luck!

  Have you tried to copy the pythonw.exe.manifest file from the Python =
directory to your application directory and rename it to =
YourApplication.exe.manifest?=20

  That was it. Thanks for your help. Specific instructions to solve the =
problem are on the wxPython wiki page above.=20



I have added the manifest to the directory and now it works perfect !

Thanks Tjerk (I almost deleted all of the standalonebuilder because of =
this gotcha)

If you build a probgram XXX.exe you have to provide a xml-file =20
XXX.exe.manifest for configuring the look of the
application.

Look at  http://powertwenty.com/kpd/blog/index.php/python/wxpython/=20

especially at the responses.

[Pythoncard-users] forms look like windows98

[Tjerk H. <tj...@br...>]

Hello group,
not being a professional programmer, I still think I=B4ve come a long
way to build a program to administrate a dairy operation.
Everythings works OK when using pythoncard editor etc.
But now I tried to build a distribution package, with standalonebuilder.
I succeeded to make it run. But the Forms, and widgets all of a sudden
look old fashioned not at all like XP.  It is ugly !
Any solution for this problem?

additional information:
Python version 2.4.3
Pythoncard   0.8.2
Wx     2.6.1.0
StandaloneBuilder v.0.2.0.1
build tool used  py2exe v.1.4

thanks once again for your attention  Tjerk

There's your problem - the PythonCard RPM on SourceForge (and on my web site) 
is built for Mandriva/Mandrake Linux, not RedHat. You'll need to uninstall 
the RPM and re-install from the tar.gz file instead.

Hi Tjerk:

Can you tell us what versions of Python, wxPython and PythonCard you are 
using? Also are you using py2exe or pyInstaller as your build method and what 
version?
