GUI woes

[jeff elkins]

Howdy,

This may not belong here, if so apologies...

I'm a python newbie, but have completed a console app that I'd like to run
under X. Reading recent postings here, wxpython seemed a reasonable choice so
under debian sid, I installed (via apt-get) the various wxpython stuff
available.:

libwxgtk2.4-python
libwxgtk2.5.3-python
python-opengl
python-pythoncard
python2.1-opengl
python2.2-opengl
python2.3-opengl
python2.3-pythoncard
pythoncard
pythoncard-doc
pythoncard-tools
wx2.5-examples
wxpython2.5.3
wxwin2.4-examples

test.py crashes with the error below. Any clues?

===========

Running test.py:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./test.py", line 87, in ?
app = MyApp(0) # Create an instance of the application class
File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/wxPython/wx.py", line 1951, in
__init__
_wxStart(self.O nInit)
File "./test.py", line 76, in OnInit
frame = MyFrame(None, -1, "This is a test")
File "./test.py", line 26, in __init__
self.Bind(wx.EV T_SIZE, self.OnSize)
AttributeError: MyFrame instance has no attribute 'Bind'

Jeff - Could you please post your code?

From what you have posted it looks like your MyFrame class does not
inherit from wx.Frame.

Your class should be defined like this:
class MyFrame(wx.Fram e):
def __init__(self, parent, id, title, pos, size, style):
wx.Frame.__init __(self, parent, id, title, pos, size, style)
self.Bind(wx.EV T_SIZE, self.OnSize)
self.Show(True)

Thanks,

You have a mixture of different versions of wxPython in there.

Bind was introduced in wxPython 2.5. Looks like you are
running against thr 2.4 library.

Thanks. I'll see if I can delete/reinstall and fix things.

Thanks Kartic. That test.py was from the wxpython download site.
