where to find wx package

[siggi]

Hi all,

a newbie question:

I have a program gui03A.py using wxPython, importing it such:
"from wxPython.wx import *"

The program works, but I get the warning message:

"gui03A.py:4: DeprecationWarning: The wxPython compatibility package is no
longer automatically generated or activly maintained. Please switch to the
wx package as soon as possible."

However, after extensive searching on www.python.org and Googling the web, I
do not find any package with "wx" as its only name.

Where can I get the wx package (for win32 XP)?

Thanks,

Siggi

The "wx package" talked about above is also part of WxPython,
so you have already got it. To import it use:

import wx

You will need to translate all (well most) identifiers in
your programme from wxBlah to wx.Blah so:

class MyFrame( wxFrame ):
pass

becomes

class MyFrame( wx.Frame ):
pass

It's the same project (from the people at www.wxpython.org), they just renamed
the package. You already have it installed.
