[Eric] Gui development in linux.

[rob]

Thanks for all the replies.

I guess I am still used to the microsoft world where you get one editor and
it does everything.

As all of you are aware it often takes a significant effort of weeks or
months to decide a language or tool doesn’t meet all your needs,

So I am glad of your advice before diving into evaluating the myriad of
tools and systems.

Regards

Robert

If ypur project is heavy on forms, it may have a database behind it. 
So it may be a good Idea to check out camelot:
http://www.python-camelot.com/
it still uses Qt and you can still use eric as your IDE

my 2 cents,

In reply to Detlev Offenbach re Re: [Eric] Gui development in linux.:


As a GUI toolkit I would recommend Qt with the PyQt python bindings. As an
IDE like VB I am recommending eric. Depending on which version of Python
shall be used (Python2 or Python3) one should use eric4 or eric5.


Detlev's recommendation gets a +1 from me but just to give you an
alternative
you may also want to check out http://www.wxwidgets.org/ and the python
bindings at http://www.wxpython.org/.

If you go the wxPython route you should also look at Dabo -
http://dabodev.com/ , its class designer lets you layout screens/forms

Other options are:
sqlkit - http://sqlkit.argolinux.org/ - does a lot of
guessing/autogeneration of forms (which can be adjusted) if your application
is database oriented and uses SQLAlchemy

http://wxglade.sourceforge.net/ , layout designer

More options can be found here:
