I didn't suppose float was localized (and, as it happens for you too) float("2,2") does not work eiher This has also bad consequences, as float() is used everywhere; for example now you cannot load Tkinter (which does float('8.4') ...) IMHO float(x) shoud not use the localized version (otherwise float(str(x)) != x even for simple x like 0.5 .... this is really bad) Except for this Python 2.4 rocks, and it loads even faster. really good job. (There is also one other minor addition that I would appreciate: adding Cut/Copy/Paste on the menu near Beak/Exit/..., with the stilus it's a log way around to get to Ctrl+C/X/V ...)

This function then calls localeconv() to find the decimal point character for the current locale and if it is not '.' then the function translates any '.' in the input string to the locale decimal point. After this conversion it calls the C library strtod() function. This means that float() should work with either '.' or ',' for Italian/German locales and you can test this on the PC (as opposed to WinCE): >>> locale.setlocale(locale.LC_NUMERIC, 'Italian') 'Italian_Italy.1252' >>> float('2,2') 2.2000000000000002 >>> float('2.2') 2.2000000000000002 I tried setting my PDA to the Italian locale and I can see the problem that you describe. The bug is that Windows CE (or at least Pocket PC 2003) does not provide a setlocale() function (so of course strtod() doesn't support locales), but in the PythonCE code we are providing a fake setlocale() and localeconv() which default to returning the user default locale settings. The only solution I can see is to change localeconv() and setlocale() to always return the "C" locale settings. Do you agree? To get working locales we would need to rewrite strtod() and many other functions to take into account the current locale, so that is not really feasible. > Except for this Python 2.4 rocks, and it loads even faster. really good > job. > > (There is also one other minor addition that I would appreciate: adding > Cut/Copy/Paste on the menu near Beak/Exit/..., with the stilus it's a > log way around to get to Ctrl+C/X/V ...)

Where are they located, etc I am trying to get xmppd (http://nuweb.org/index) to run under winCE, i managed to build the only dependency to xmppd (which is tlslite), now i have problems with python itself :/ (btw i built python from sources for winCE 5.0 under an x86 platform) I found out that the module package in xmppd filter files using .py extension, so i modified it quite a bit to be able to use .pyc, the remaining problems, is that os.listdir('.') for example doesn't return the correct file listing (it returns only one file) ... which is somewhat weird, i am suspecting this KITL thingies (i am just discovering microsoft technologies) and the virtual directory stuff.

Don't you get the full path to a script when it is run? Otherwise how would Python know where to find the file it's supposed to execute? How can you open a file without knowing where it is? And if you do know where a script is being run from - shouldn't that be the scripts initial working directory? --- Luke Dunstan wrote: > > While you are debugging this, please be aware that unlike most operating > systems, Windows CE has no concept of a "current directory" at all.

There was a mention sometime back that the sources would be handed to Robin Dunn. But since then I have found it almost impossible to trace a copy of the original package from Brian Retford. I am wondering whether this has all stalled or not. Does anyone know if Brian Retford did release his efforts to Robin. Does anyone know exactly what the score is on wxpyce. Thanks for any info.

You might be better off posting on comp.python.wxpython. Clearly, what Robin is doing is the ideal solution and will result in a version of wxPython for winCE consistent with versions for other platforms. The old version from Brian Retford runs but has at least one whopper bug. I'm sure that many of us are waiting breathlessly for the new version that Robin is working on. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/wxpython-for-ce-t1478742.html#a4005376 Sent from the Python - pythonce forum at Nabble.com.

Basically paths are setup correctly on PythonCE 2.4, but none of the Tkinter .py files are included. Just copy everything from /lib/Tkinter on your pc to /lib/Tkinter on your winCE - then edit/replace Tkinter.py using the instructions in the readme. At least I think that was all that was needed to get it running... Maybe I should fix the bugs and do a new release? Also somebody should put the Tkinter pyc files into the zip for the next release of PythonCE, What good is it to include it in the path but not the distro? --- Roman Bischoff wrote: > After a hard reset I lost my whole Python installation on the iPaq. > Now I'm re-installing it, and migrating to the newer versions. > > ... > I get this error: > > Traceback (innermost last): > File "\Program Files\Python24\Lib\Editor.py", line 10, in ? > from Tkinter import * > File "\Program Files\Python24\Lib\Tkinter.py", line 42, in ? > from Tkconstants import * > exceptions.ImportError: No module named Tkconstants > > ... > > Roman From johna at johnaherne.co.uk Thu Apr 20 20:49:01 2006 From: johna at johnaherne.co.uk (John Aherne) Date: Thu, 20 Apr 2006 19:49:01 +0100 Subject: [PythonCE] wxpython for ce In-Reply-To: <4005376.post@talk.nabble.com> References: <44472C27.5040307@johnaherne.co.uk> <4005376.post@talk.nabble.com> Message-ID: <4447D79D.1050306@johnaherne.co.uk> <> Thanks for the update.

So is there a way to tell pythonce were the current directory is? Another problem, which I think I read about earlier, is how photoimage screws up how images are displayed on windows CE. Is there a workaround for this, or am I doing something wrong.

You can tell Python using os.chdir(), but that will not necessarily have any effect on Tkinter because the operating system has no concept of a "current directory", so it depends on whether the image file is opened in the Python code or the C code.

PythonCE *simulates* a current directory on the python level This means that calls that use only Python code will work as normal - except the current directory will always start in a fixed location ('//Temp' I think). Calls to use files from C code will not have access to this information. So you can experiment with the image_loc and see if it works using the current directory or not, but it may not do. To get the current directory you use the normal functions provided by the ``os`` and ``os.path`` module : cur_dir = os.getcwd() print cur_dir os.chdir(""//assets") print os.getcwd() image_path = os.path.join(os.getcwd(), "img//BtnGluco.gif") You can also test whether you are running on windows CE or not with either : sys.platform or sys.getwindowsversion() They should return different things on windows CE and normal windows. That means you can make your code behave appropriately depending on which system it is on.

That is true at the moment, but in the next release I will change it so that if you run a script using the command line then the current directory will initially be set to the directory containing the script, for convenience. > Calls to use files from C code will not have access to this information. > So you can experiment with the image_loc and see if it works using the > current directory or not, but it may not do. > > To get the current directory you use the normal functions provided by > the ``os`` and ``os.path`` module : > > cur_dir = os.getcwd() > print cur_dir > os.chdir(""//assets") > print os.getcwd() Correct, except that the path separator is \ (or \\ in a string literal) not //. > image_path = os.path.join(os.getcwd(), "img//BtnGluco.gif") or continuing with that pattern: image_path = os.path.join(os.getcwd(), "img", "BtnGluco.gif") > You can also test whether you are running on windows CE or not with either > : > > sys.platform or sys.getwindowsversion() > > They should return different things on windows CE and normal windows. > That means you can make your code behave appropriately depending on > which system it is on. > > HTH > > Fuzzyman > http://www.voidspace.org.uk/python/shareware.shtml That will work, but like Gonzalo I prefer using os.name.
