#---------------------------------------------------------------------- # Name: wxversion # Purpose: Allows a wxPython program to search for alternate # installations of the wxPython packages and modify sys.path # so they will be found when "import wx" is done. # # Author: Robin Dunn # # Created: 24-Sept-2004 # RCS-ID: $Id$ # Copyright: (c) 2004 by Total Control Software # Licence: wxWindows license #---------------------------------------------------------------------- """ If you have more than one version of wxPython installed this module allows your application to choose which version of wxPython will be imported when it does 'import wx'. The main function of this module is `select` and you use it like this:: import wxversion wxversion.select('2.4') import wx Or additional build options can also be selected, although they will not be required if they are not installed, like this:: import wxversion wxversion.select('2.5.3-unicode') import wx Or you can require an exact match on the build options like this:: import wxversion wxversion.select('2.5.3-unicode', optionsRequired=True) import wx Finally you can also specify a collection of versions that are allowed by your application, like this:: import wxversion wxversion.select(['2.5.4', '2.5.5', '2.6']) import wx Of course the default wxPython version can also be controlled by setting PYTHONPATH or by editing the wx.pth path configuration file, but using wxversion will allow an application to manage the version selection itself rather than depend on the user to setup the environment correctly. It works by searching the sys.path for directories matching wx-* and then comparing them to what was passed to the select function. If a match is found then that path is inserted into sys.path. NOTE: If you are making a 'bundle' of your application with a tool like py2exe then you should *not* use the wxversion module since it looks at the filesystem for the directories on sys.path, it will fail in a bundled environment. Instead you should simply ensure that the version of wxPython that you want is found by default on the sys.path when making the bundled version by setting PYTHONPATH. Then that version will be included in your bundle and your app will work as expected. Py2exe and the others usually have a way to tell at runtime if they are running from a bundle or running raw, so you can check that and only use wxversion if needed. For example, for py2exe:: if not hasattr(sys, 'frozen'): import wxversion wxversion.select('2.5') import wx More documentation on wxversion and multi-version installs can be found at: http://wiki.wxpython.org/index.cgi/MultiVersionInstalls """ import sys, os, glob, fnmatch _selected = None class VersionError(Exception): pass #---------------------------------------------------------------------- def select(versions, optionsRequired=False): """ Search for a wxPython installation that matches version. If one is found then sys.path is modified so that version will be imported with a 'import wx', otherwise a VersionError exception is raised. This funciton should only be caled once at the begining of the application before wxPython is imported. :param versions: Specifies the version to look for, it can either be a string or a list of strings. Each string is compared to the installed wxPythons and the best match is inserted into the sys.path, allowing an 'import wx' to find that version. The version string is composed of the dotted version number (at least 2 of the 4 components) optionally followed by hyphen ('-') separated options (wx port, unicode/ansi, flavour, etc.) A match is determined by how much of the installed version matches what is given in the version parameter. If the version number components don't match then the score is zero, otherwise the score is increased for every specified optional component that is specified and that matches. Please note, however, that it is possible for a match to be selected that doesn't exactly match the versions requested. The only component that is required to be matched is the version number. If you need to require a match on the other components as well, then please use the optional ``optionsRequired`` parameter described next. :param optionsRequired: Allows you to specify that the other components of the version string (such as the port name or character type) are also required to be present for an installed version to be considered a match. Using this parameter allows you to change the selection from a soft, as close as possible match to a hard, exact match.
