	It needs a network stack to work of course, so it can suck down
webpages etc.

# So, you run this on your pocket PC, the IR beam the plucker file to your

	"Vade Mecum" is a Plucker client for Pocket PC; one could also
drop the PDB files out to an SD card for Palm OS devices, but thats not my
intent :)

Cool.
Any chance of uploading some binaries ? (Specifically for PPC 2002)

Hmm... I've never heard of anyone succeeding. My guess is that PPC is 
very different and it will need hacking quite severely. Probably 
*differently* for the different versions of Windows CE :-(

Now if someone could port ctypes they could be called 
directly.............. (which would also be some work as the FFI 
libraries it relies on would need porting).

win32gui is getting fairly good coverage for most GUI applications.  Last I
had a CE compiler, that module built fine - but I suspect that later
versions no longer do.

What is the state of pywin32 on CE?  I'd be happy to help any way I can.

Last I knew, win32gui built ok. But I could not get win32ui to build due to 
differences in MFC. Some classes are missing on PPC.

Hello everyone,
 
I am working on porting blender (www.blender3d.org) for Pocketpc. Blender is written in C/C++ and is using Python.
I downloaded ?python-2.3.4-arm-HPC2000.zip?, add in my includes all Python23 includes (with Python.h, etc
) but now, EVC4 is complaining because it is looking for a ?python23.lib?.
I look everywhere but I was not able to find this library. I have a ?Python23.dll? but no .lib.
 
Does anyone have an id?e how can I continue :=) ??
 
Can Someone say me where I can find it? Or explain how can I obtain it? Or maybe easily send it to me :=)
 
Thanks for your help,
Salvatore

Can't you generate a .lib file from a DLL using one of the command-line 
tools?

(Like.. lib.exe ??)

Hello Brad,

What I don't understand, is why pyconfig.h (one of the file in all header to use python with C++) want to import this python23.lib. Here is the code:

/* For an MSVC DLL, we can nominate the .lib files used by extensions */
#ifdef MS_COREDLL
# ifndef Py_BUILD_CORE /* not building the core - must be an ext */
#  if defined(_MSC_VER)
   /* So MSVC users need not specify the .lib file in
   their Makefile (other compilers are generally
   taken care of by distutils.) */
#   ifdef _DEBUG
#    pragma comment(lib,"python23_d.lib")
#   else
#    pragma comment(lib,"python23.lib")
#   endif /* _DEBUG */
#  endif /* _MSC_VER */
# endif /* Py_BUILD_CORE */
#endif /* MS_COREDLL */

I am using EVC4... I can try what you proposed. BUT if I generate a python23.lib from my python23.dll... and then include them in my built, I will have the python information twince! Once in static and once in Dynamic... If we need a python.lib to use the python.dll, why it is not included in the python-2.3.4 zip file... I am really not understanding...

Thanks for your help,

Salvatore

Hi

I assume it's not included because most people only want to run python
scripts (which requires the DLL) - not embed python in C, which is
generally done using static linking (or at least that's how I've done
it in the past, and it looks like blender did that too.)

As far as I know only a handful of people have tried to do embedded
python on the pocket (and I'm not one of them).

If you compiled PythonCE from source it would have produced the .lib
for you, as that's what Visual Studio (and eVC) usually does when you compile a
DLL.

This pragma automatically tells windows compiler which library you need 
to link to.

You always need a library if you're linking to the DLL, otherwise the linker 
doesn't know which symbols are available, or their types (if using C++ 
mangling)

No, you won't have it twice. the .lib file is only used during the linking 
process. It doesn't add anything to your exe.

Think of it as a symbol table, not a static link.

Hello,

I've tried yesterday the command:

"lib python23.dll"

... but it does't work, I have the error: 

Python23.dll : fatal error LNK1136 : invalid or corrupt file.

I found this programm

http://www.binary-soft.com/dll2lib/dll2lib.htm

and used it... and it created me the dll. But this programm is very expensive, and I don't know what it is really doing. Given that I am working on a open source application, I am not so happy to use such a programm. Such an expensive programm can not do something that we can do with a simple command line :=) ??

I am using evc4. The other problem I have is that I would be happy to begin testing Blender on the emulator and the python23.dll is only for pocketpc.
Maybe it will be a better solution to built pythonCE again with EVC and then, I will have everything I need... maybe someone as a better idea? I only need python23.dll and python23.lib for pocketpc and for emulator (x86). Did someone already built PythonCE with EVC4 ?? Maybe someone has already the projects files :=) ?

Thanks for your help,
Salvatore

Hi,

Are you on the pythonce mailing list? I think others will be interested in 
what you are doing.

I don't think there's a single place to go to find the plans for "this project". 
The SF project itself pretty much serves as a container to distribute files 
from, hold patches, etc.

Unlike other SF projects, there doesn't seem to be a core group of 
developers working on "python for CE". At the least, interested 
developers come and go.

Would you like to take a more active role in "the project" such as it is?

> 2. Any plans on rolling it into python proper?

Personally I have hoped for this over the past 4 years or so. However 
there always seems to be too many changes to the base code needed to 
make it work on CE (lack of proper floating point errors, for example).

So, we end up with patches that are really too big to vet and integrate into 
core python. 

Perhaps as EVC and the CE runtime gets better, that problem will be 
reduced. However we still have older devices to support, so I'm doubtful 
we'll get an out-of-the-box compile for CE anytime soon.

> 3. If not any plans on 2.4.x?

I have started in on 2.4, first by getting a good subversion tree with diffs 
for 2.3. 

Then I was going to apply those diffs to the 2.4 codebase.

However, I haven't quite finished my changes for the 2.3 version.

I left off working on runtime issues, like the deployment of the library and 
dlls on external flash.. Proper handling of system directories using 
system names (so that non-english CE devices would function properly).

However, I, like others, am a contract programmer with limited time and 
means. I have no clients interested in python on CE, so no one to 
sponsor my time, and I'm quite busy doing "real work".

Also, I have an original iPaq, so I'm already 2 generations behind on the 
CE platform.  

That's one thing I find really annoying about CE.. Platform differences, 
EVC3 vs EVC4 vs. the new visual studio coming out.

Its a giant pain and, I don't have a personal steak in it I'm afraid.

I'd also like to have a CE version of Hap Debugger

http://hapdebugger.sourceforge.net/

So my python ce work has been on and off. mostly off lately.

Subject: [PythonCE] Python23.lib?
Message-ID: <IIW3P9$9B5433477FC4DC14FBF6FE378E7C7098@laposte.net>

Hallo Gonzalo,

Thanks for your reply and your proposition. I tried all versions from:

http://www.python.org/download/download_windows.html

and finally choose this one:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/pythonce

I never found this python23.lib library indispensible to make python work in C. As I wrote, I generated this python23.dll file with the demonstration version of the programm I mentionned and I will be able to continue. But this program can only be used 30 day and maybe the library also... that's why I am not happy with this solution.
I will be very interested if you can send me your library for arm and also for emulator (if you have it) :=) Thanks!

The best will be to include in http://sourceforge.net/projects/pythonce a folder: \lib with subfolders \arm and \x86emu and in each folder, both python23.dll and python23.lib (in the same way as http://www.tenik.co.jp/~adachi/wince/). Or to leave in the zip files a "evc4 projects". I don't want to run all .bat that configure evc4 because I am working for month on Blender and I don't want to change all my configuration.

If I have no choice, I will build a project for PythonCE and send it to the PythonCE project. But I don't know what should I include: there is no *.c files... maybe *pyc files are like c files... Should I also include some files from the windows32 distribution or the PythonCe source files are enought?

Thanks for your Help,
Salvatore
