I didn't set up a design doc or anything.<br>I just randomly have ideas sometimes and I just make a prototype first so I can see what kind of problems arise,<br>because when I just think about it I can't determine what I will need in order to make the app.
<br>For example, all the functions that I found to do this type of stuff.<br>>_><br>Yeah, I don't plan ahead.<br>Which is why I might fail my Software Engineering class when I'm a senior.<br>Ah well.<br>I'm in the process of learning how to make requirements sheets and such,
<br>and unit tests. I'm not good at that kind of stuff right at the moment.<br><br>Well, the long and short of it is,<br>I don't have anything that would be of help to you, except ideas about how things can be done.<br>And the guy who wrote that vnc client probably has thought through all of these things more thoroughly than I have.
<br><br>One thing I was also trying to make a prototype of, so I could integrate it into the VNC app if I ever got around to it,<br>was a VoIP client/server.<br>I was going to use Speex as the audio codec, and use pyMedia as the microphone input.
<br>The only problem I had was that the pySpeex bindings were only compiled for python 2.2,<br>and I'm trying to get them to compile for 2.4.<br>I installed Visual Studio .net 2003, which is supposedly the compiler they used for python
2.4,<br>but I still haven't managed to get the kinks worked out well enough for a compile to work.<br>I think the speex guys changed around where all the source codes are located,<br>so I've been trying to re-arrange everything into the directory structure the python compile script expects.
<br>So yeah.<br>If I get that working, the actual VoIP part shouldn't be too hard. <br>pySpeex looks like it should be able to integrate with pyMedia, and pyMedia makes microphone input super-easy.<br>I'm not sure what version of Visual Studio
2.5 was built with, but if I can get a copy of it, I'll probably try to compile pySpeex for 2.5 also.<br><br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 11/4/06, <b class="gmail_sendername">Chris Hengge</b> <<a href="mailto:pyro9219@gmail.com">

<br>> ><br>> Also note that if you want all of the keypresses, but you _don't_ care<br>> about the application with focus<br>> receiving the input, you can do a complete key grab using TKInter or
<br>> Pygame, and probably the other GUI packages too.<br>> But, like I said, if you were, for example, typing an e-mail and you<br>> started a script that did a complete grab like this, you'd no longer be

<br>> packages' key capturing works.<br>> You may be asking 'well, it sounds like pyHook does a better job of<br>> this<br>> anyway!'<br>> Yeah, you're right.<br>> However, as Alan exclaimed, pyHook works only on Windows!
<br>> So the solution I offered would be more portable.<br>> Hope that helps,<br>> -Luke<br>><br>><br>><br>> ------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>>
