Hi,
I'm thinking of embedding the Python interpreter in my wxWindows app, or
else using wxPython to host my app. I can think of various pros & cons.
Pros of using wxWindows + Python:
Existing C++ code can be used as is.
Users don't have to install Python.
Possibly easier to create .exe app.
More classes available on wxWindows. (not important for my app).
A Mac version of wxWindows exists (sort of).
Pros of using wxPython:
Python code is simpler.
Best to base app on Python.
Python is the wave of the future, etc.
Better widgets may be available w/ Python.
Easier to add scripting support.
Easier to use existing scripts.
What do you all think of the choices? Are any of these points invalid?
Anything I've missed?
Thanks,
Edward
