	You are missing a comma after 'Job subtype'.

Hehe,=20

Just an update, having the columnHeading stuff in the resource file look=20
like this -=20
columnHeadings':[
[ 'Job number',-1,2],
[ 'Inquiry date', -1,2],
[ 'Job date', -1,2],
[ 'Job time', -1,2],
[ 'Fixed?', -1,2],
[ 'Job type', -1,2],
[ 'Job subtype'-1,2],
],=20

which I thought would work gives this error -=20

or
foo =3D self.components.jobs
foo.columnHeadings =3D [[item[0], item[1], 2] for item in=20

Hmm....

Or am I doing the resource file part wrong?

[Pythoncard-users] contents of a control

[Ade <sk...@bl...>]

Hi,
	Im not sure this is the right place for this especially at this time but
here goes...

I am trying to get the contents of a control in a window, say a TextArea
control or a List or a button etc
I can programmatically get the window its in and then the controls handle by
enumming the child windows of that window.
I cannot get the contents of that control.
I'm a tester and I need to be able to confirm the contents programmatically
before moving on with the test.
I know there are 3rd party applications out there that can do it so it must
be possible and I can not use these it has to be python.
I have dug through the python forums and not found anything so far.
I thought that since this was all about manipulating controls that this
would be a good place for answers

Thankyou, looking forward to version 1 of PythonCard.

Hi Alex,=20

There's a hint in the sample/multicolumnexample.py in the comments at
the head.
Playing around a bit with that, I think you pass in a list like
[ ["header", width, format], ...]
width is an integer value :
-1 =3D auto_size
positive value is an actual column width
(note you must have ALL columns set to auto_size to get autosizing)

format is one of
wxLIST_FORMAT_LEFT : 0
wxLIST_FORMAT_RIGHT : 1
wxLIST_FORMAT_CENTRE : 2

P.S. I couldn't figure out the right way to use the wxLIST_FORMAT_*  
constants. I'm sure you should be able to do something like
 import wx
and then use wx.wxLIST_FORMAT_LEFT
but that didn't work - I finished up doing
import wx
print wx._controls.wxLIST_FORMAT_LEFT
to check what the values were.

Very useful....  I would suggest that Kevin consider adding it to the
Resource editor and maybe even expanding on it....

Possibly noting any non-default values that have been configured for the

Hello again,=20

Feeling kind of silly, just looked more closely at MCL, and found lines=20
330-338 under the method=20
_setColumnHeadings(self, aList):

elif w =3D=3D 3 and \
isinstance(aList[0][0], StringType) and \
isinstance(aList[0][1], IntType) and \
isinstance(aList[0][2], IntType):
flag =3D 0
for i in xrange(numcols):
if aList[i][1] !=3D wx.LIST_AUTOSIZE:
flag =3D 1
self.InsertColumn(i, aList[i][0], format=3DaList[i][2], width=3DaList[i][1]=
)

So, I get the feeling that if I create my ColumnHeadings as a list of [=20
"Column name", x, y]
where x and y are both integers, then it'll come through to this=20
InsertColumn method...

But, what values are legitimate values? If x and y have to be ints, how doe=
s=20
that fit in with InsertColumn? I'm used to wx.LIST_AUTOSIZE and so forth.
Those isinstance()'s in the elif clause are a bit confusing actually....

Not overly much documentation on InsertColumn at
wxpython.org<http://wxpython.org>either. :(

Any help would be gratefully appreciated,=20

Re: [Pythoncard-users] Re: Time to share your PythonCard gripes

[Liam C. <cy...@gm...>]

Hi there,=20

Sorry to resurrect an old topic, but just working with the multi-column=20
list.

I have the column headings stored in the resource file, but I want to chang=
e=20
how the column headings are formatted. AFAIK, in wxPython you can only set=
=20
formatting when calling wx.ListCtrl.InsertColumn, which is I believe what=
=20
MultiColumnList (MCL) does for my column headings upon instantiation.

What I was wondering was would it be possible to have a optional attribute=
=20
for that list like=20
'format': None in the resource file? Then you could add in the basic format=
s=20
(list_left) if you needed them.

I dunno, MultiColumnList is so easy to use compared to the wxPython=20
ListCtrl, so, in my pursuit of maximum effect for minimum effort, I'd rathe=
r=20
avoid wx stuff as much as possible. I'm having nightmares after trying to=
=20
figure out how to use wx.DC's effectively.=20

Alternatively, would it be possible to stick a method in MCL to effectively=
,=20
destroy the existing MCL and create it again, but with formatting?=20

I know that it would be a 95% un-needed method/attribute, so I'm asking=20
'just in case' someone's poking at MCL and feels creative.

Re: [Pythoncard-users] childWindow args

[<bra...@om...>]

For my part, the main motivation for this has gone away. In another 
thread,
"childWindow.Raise() works on Windows, not on Mac",  Liam kindly explained 

the following:

        "See, what happens is that when a child 
window is created, the method that [called model.childWindow]
finishes before the child window's on_initialise gets
called."

Assuming this is true, and so far it seems to be, it's safe
for the calling parent to go ahead and assign additional attributes
to the child window, as long as it's done in the same method
that created the child window.

Another technique I've been using to get around this problem
is for the child window's on_initialize to interrogate the parent
for additional data using self.getParent().

Looking over the tutorial on how to create a child window, there
is a reference to using getParent(), but it still might be worthwhile
to include this in an FAQ...something like this:

----------
Q: "I want to pass parameters to model.childWindow when I create
a child window. How do I accomplish that?"

A: Instead of passing parameters to model.childWindow, you can
have the child window's on_initialize method request additional
data from the parent using self.getParent().whatever.you.want.
----------

I'm not sure if the other approach is worth mentioning in an FAQ;
it seems counterintuitive to expect that on_initialize
is going to fire at some later time...

But if I did, what I'd probably do is add some code to the "saveFile" 
function in the resourceEditor, so that each time I saved the resource 
file, I also saved the equivalent nice, readable version. 

I wrote a couple of lines of code to do a very basic version of that - 
here's a context diff ...
(it's the same little code fragment inserted in two places).

this saves a file such as "name.rsrc.pytxt" with the readable version.

Haven't felt a need to do that. For code editing, I use the "oneEditor" 
that comes with Pythoncard. It's an experimental (though pretty stable) 
extension to the basic code editor - supports tabbed notebook for 
multiple file edits, and a drop-down menu of components and their events.

Even if you want to use a different editor, you may find the code that 
does that helpful - see setResourceFile, fillEventNames and 
on_popComponentEvents in tools/oneEditor/tabcodeEditor.py

Yeah, thatt's the way to do it, gets all the GUI bits up and running, and=

you can use on_initialize events to run the whole thing without any user=20
input if need be.

If you're just looking to do quick and dirty GUI's as needed within your=20
code, instead of shaping your code to fit a GUI, have a look at=20

They're pretty quick and dirty, but they're easy.

So, are you trying to access the original worldclock, or your own class?

Consider making your Pythoncard class your controller, as it will be the on=

responding to events. I have a similar case -=20

from PythonCard import model, dialog
import dao
import ConfigParser
import search

class Main(model.Background):

def on_initialize(self, event):
db =3D self.getCfg()
self.SQLWrapper =3D dao.DAO(db)
self.Show()

def getCfg(self):
cfg =3D ConfigParser.ConfigParser()
cfg.read('./config.ini')
dbFile =3D cfg.get('Database details', 'filename')
return dbFile

def on_clients_mouseClick(self, event):
searchWindow =3D model.childWindow(self, search.SearchClient)
searchWindow.DAO =3D self.SQLWrapper


if __name__=3D=3D'__main__':
app=3Dmodel.Application(Main)
app.MainLoop()


From the main class, references to the database access object are passed to=
=20
each child window. Child windows can open other children windows, but they=
=20
always assign the above class as the parent, so the Main class will always=
=20
stick around.

I would like to pull everything together in a Controller.py module which

Your examples and others that turned up on a Google search use
"/Users/username/python" as the PYTHONPATH. That seems to imply that
PythonCard should be dumped directly into said directory, so that
import PythonCard statements will find it. However, if I download using
CVS into this directory, it dumps a lot of other stuff into the same
place, including the folders CVS and CVSROOT. Will this create CVS 
problems
if I start downloading other Python packages into this directory using 
CVS?

Also, I'm curious how to start making use of the new platform-specific 
resource file
feature. Do these just automagically work under PythonCard .82 as long as 
the
resource files have the special naming convention examples from your 
original
posting?

[Pythoncard-users] managing resource files

[<bra...@om...>]

What is the normal way of managing large numbers of resource files? Do you 
typically group them into Python packages separate from the rest of your 
project's modules, but with the associated background modules still 
alongside in the same folder? Or do you split all your resource files into 
a separate folder and somehow tell PythonCard a special path for locating 
resource files? Or do you just let the resource files reside alongside all 
the other modules?

For example, my current project structure looks something like this, but 
the number for resource files in the client package keeps growing, and may 
end up growing to somewhere from 30 to 50 rsrc files by the time things 
settle down. Of course, there will also be equally many background 
modules, and just a small number of non-PythonCard modules buried in the 
mix.

ProjectFolder
        client
                __init__.py
                <modules involving client app logic and  increasingly many 
rsrc files>
        common
                __init__.py
                <modules required by both client and server>
        server
                __init__.py

Create a PYTHONPATH environment variable and set it to the special 
directory which holds the PythonCard directory. Python will search in 
the PYTHONPATH before the standard lib dirs.

On the Mac, you'll want to create an environment.plist file so that the 
PYTHONPATH is used regardless of whether you're running from the 
Terminal or Finder, since on the Mac those are considered different as 
far as how environment variables are found. The file will look 
something like this, substitute your own username for "username" below. 
  You only need the CVS_RSH key if you do CVS checkins for some package. 
The environment.plist is a leftover from the Next days of OS X, IIRC 
;-) If you search on Google you should find more about PYTHONPATH and 
environment.plist. Also, I think the file needs to end in linefeeds 
(Unix) not carriage returns (Mac Finder) and yes it is annoying that 
Apple brought that legacy of classic Mac into Mac OS X.

If you run your application with one of the debug options like -d you 
can check the About dialog to make sure you have the right versions of 
Python, wxPython, and PythonCard. The PythonCard version number in CVS 
is 0.8.2.

I tried plugging this into resourceEditor.py on my Windows install, it
didn't work. Quite likely that I screwed up somehow, but the focus
keeps reverting to the property editor on every attempt to select the
resource editor. I tried to be extra careful with indentation, but
still not working here. <br>

Ok, I downloaded from CVS into a special directory (separate from my Mac's 
/Library/Python/2.3 directory). So, if I add this to my sys.path, so as to 
import the CVS copy of PythonCard, I should be able to start using 
platform-specific resource filenames and PythonCard will automatically 
detect the platform and select the correct resource file?

Thanks!

 

[Pythoncard-users] Fwd: PythonCard and py2app - single py2exe and py2app setup.py

[Kevin A. <al...@se...>]

I've checked in the changes suggested by Bob Ippolito. The new setup.py 
file looks like...

from distutils.core import setup
import sys

if sys.platform == 'darwin':
     import py2app
     buildstyle = 'app'
else:
     import py2exe
     buildstyle = 'console'

setup( name = "minimal",
        data_files = [ (".", ["readme.txt", "minimal.rsrc.py"]) ],
        **{buildstyle: ["minimal.py"]}
        )

When I post a change like this it means that the code in the CVS 
repository changed and will be in the next release distribution. If you 
want to stay current with changes and test before the next release you 
need to work off of a copy of PythonCard from the SF CVS repository.

The next release is not scheduled until sometime in May, after I get 
back from the UK.
