@ Richard - yes, this one : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Principle @ Jason - yes. In a more traditional build & release infrastructure, that kind of setup does make sense... However, this place isn't really traditional, actually far from it ;) I'd be happy to show you how web2py is used wit

It sounds like you could start the QT interface from web2py if you wanted. :P But I think the best think would be to have two programs, the Interface (Web, QT, Mobile app (nokia supports qt) etc...) and then an application that communicates with that for the automation stuff. It would have an

Hey, Its in-house (mostly all python) automation framework for builds&releases, and other process specific tasks (and acts a the interface between test and releas automation). Its all up and running as it is, and is doing a great job. So, I;m doing some feature development now that the foundation

So, there is lots of fun to had with web2py with pyQT. It just depends on the end goal. I embed web2py within an automation framework, which despite this and a few other pieces, turns out to be pretty light on its feet (not a huge footprint for users to download). So, doing this, web2py comes in V

well, I think he didn't made it clear but I see many ways: - create a component for web2py that instead of generating the html/ css/js source you use to see it in a website, it would generate the GUI application (controllers+view) as well as linking it to a shared model. This is a lot of work but

Hello, It's not clear to me how you would combine PyQt (or PySide) with web2py in the same application, it doesn't seem to make much sense to me. Provided you could actually make this work, a PyQt UI embedded in a web2py application would only be visible on the server (e.g. some google data

wrong note! I like it, I consider it the best way of making GUI's for many reasons but I am beginner on it. However, I think it may be interesting the creation of systems with multiple interfaces. In fact, I had the idea of the "web 6.0" :) as I called it, by defining metadata threw the web that d

This is great to hear! I was looking at making a few pieces (with a UI) that would have both web version and non-web version! So, I made a note that "blackthorne" knows all about this when I get stuck! :) Thanks for that! Mart :) On Jan 20, 3:46 pm, blackthorne wrote: > yes, I fully recommend i

yes, I fully recommend it. i think it's the best way of developing gui in a portable and native-respectful way. you also have Pyside. Qt creator is great. you can use Qt designer with pyuic for translation. make your questions, I will try to answer even though it is fairly offtopic. On Jan 20, 8
