Re: P4D Update
PyScripter is excellent. Is absolutely has the potential to become the most popular Python IDE for Windows. It should have its own SourceForge website and be announced in the Python newsgroup.

Subject: [pythonfordelphi] P4D Update
Hi everybody,
A new release 3.28 of P4D is available at http://mmm-experts.com/Downloads.aspx?ProductId=3
Some bug fixes but 2 major enhancements:
- Kiriakos Vlahos generously donated his work to the P4D community: a complete and elegant Python IDE written in Delphi, only with opensource components. This is a really good alternative to the already excellent Pythonwin.
- A small change in the VarPyth unit now allows you to invoke Python functions with named parameters.
Here’s the change log for this release:
Fixed a bug in PyObjectAsVariant thanks to Kiriakos Vlahos [kvlahos@...]Testing for Boolean values should be done before Integer values, as Boolean inherit from Integers.
Fixed a bug in ArrayToPyTuple, ArrayToPyList and ArrayToPyDict when giving empty string as argument thanks to Dietmar Budelsky. Added demo29 showing how to exchange images between Delphi and Python Imaging Library (PIL).
In PythonEngine.pas, added APIs:
PyObject_Call
PyErr_SetInterrupt
Added new feature to VarPyth: you can now invoke functions or methods using named parameters.A big advantage of named parameters over regular parameters is that the order of parameters is not importantand help invoking functions with many optional parameters, as you can only specify the one you need.Note that any Python function can be invoked with or without named parameters, and that you can mix regular and named parameters.Python code: · def MakeList(a, b, c):· return [a, b, c]
Delphi code: var _main : Variant; L : Variant; begin _main := MainModule; L := _main.MakeList(1, 2, 3); // L = [1, 2, 3] (this is the old way) L := _main.MakeList(1, c := 3, b := 2); // L = [1, 2, 3] Note that you can mix // regular and named parameters. L := _main.MakeList(c := 3, a := 1, b := 2); // L = [1, 2, 3] Only named parameters
Added Demo30 to show how you can use named parameters.
Added Project PythonIDE thanks to a donation of Kiriakos Vlahos [kvlahos@...].PyScripter was not designed to compete with other Python IDE tools but rather to serve the purpose of providing a strong scriptingsolution for Delphi Applications. However it is a reasonably good stand-alone Python IDE.Features:
Easy Integration with Delphi applications
Syntax Highlighting
Brace Highlighting
Python source code utilities ((un)tabify, (un)comment, (un)indent)
Code Explorer
File Explorer with filter
Easy configuration and browsing of the Python Path
Access to Python manuals through the Help menu and context sensitive help (press F1 on a Python keyword inside the editor)
Integrated Python Interpreter
Command History
Alt-UP : previous command
Alt-Down : next command
Esc : clear command
Code Completion
Call Tips
Integrated Python Debugging
Debug Windows
Call Stack
Variables Window
Watches Window
BreakPoints Window
Modern UI with docked forms
Persistent configurable IDE options
Note that P4D only contains PythonIDE source code, but you can download a compiled version fromhttp://mmm-experts.com/Downloads.aspx?ProductId=4 If you want to rebuild it by yourself, you`ll need to look at PythonIDEReadme.txt for the requiredcomponent packages.
Flagged GetAtom of PythonAtom.pas and TAtomPythonEngine of AtomPythonEngine.pas as deprecated when using Delphi 6 or later.You should replace TAtomPythonEngine by TPythonEngine and PythonAtom.pas by VarPyth.pas.Note that VarPyth and PythonAtom act differently. So, simply changing the unit may compile but your application may crash at runtime because PythonAtom converts Python sequences into variant arrays for instance, whereas VarPyth will keep the Python sequence object and let you act on it.See discussions in the yahoo group and Andy`s tutorial about latest techniques:http://www.atug.com/andypatterns/PythonDelphiLatest.htmConverting TAtomPythonEngine is easy: open the form or datamodule hosting the component, View as text (Alt + F12), replace TAtomPythonEngine by TPythonEngine, View as Form (Alt + F12), in the unit, replace TAtomPythonEngine by TPythonEngine nad replace AtomPythonEngine by PythonEngine (in the uses).Save.Note that eventhough you get a deprecated warning, it still works as it is and you`re not required to do the change.It`s only better to do it for the future and for the additional benefits of VarPyth... Updated file `Deploying P4D.pdf` to refer to the Python tool that helps collect all module dependencies.

Re: P4D Update
It is always good to hear nice comments about one`s work. However,
when you look at Python IDEs like
• Boa constructor (http://boa-constructor.sourceforge.net/)
• SPE (http://spe.pycs.net/)
• PyDev Eclipse plugin (http://pydev.sourceforge.net/)
you `ll see that they are a lot more feature rich than PyScripter.
Also the majority of Python developers uses Linux as a developing
platform and a Windows only IDE would have rather limited appeal.
On the other hand PyScripter, being a native Windows application, is
much snappier, more Windows compliant and potentially more robust than
some of the other IDEs. What it would need though before releasing it
to the wider Python community is a Python plugin architecture, which
would allow Python programmers to extend its functionality using their
native language. I`ll probably do that sometime soon. It would then
be easy to integrate standard Python tools such as pylint, pydoc,
Bicycle Repair Man etc. Also ESS-Model
(http://essmodel.sourceforge.net/) could be adapted to provide
integrated UML diagrams.

Re: P4D Update
If you don`t have access to
http://membres.lycos.fr/marat/delphi/python.htm
anymore, which is still the #1 search result if you google for "Python for Delphi", why not contact Lycos and ask them to remove it?
I remember I had great difficulties finding the more recent version and the new mailing list!

Re: P4D Update
Hi Andreas,
I already asked them but didn’t get
any answer! It appears to be very difficult to join them!!! L
I recently registered P4D to Torry’s
Delphi Pages, so it may help finding P4D in the future…
I will try to register it to CodeCentral
too…

PythonIDEReadme.txt for the required

· Flagged
GetAtom of PythonAtom.pas and TAtomPythonEngine of AtomPythonEngine.pas as
deprecated when using Delphi 6 or later.
You should replace TAtomPythonEngine by TPythonEngine and PythonAtom.pas by
VarPyth.pas.
Note that VarPyth and PythonAtom act differently. So, simply changing the unit
may compile but your application may crash at runtime because PythonAtom
converts Python sequences into variant arrays for instance, whereas VarPyth
will keep the Python sequence object and let you act on it.
See discussions in the yahoo group and Andy`s tutorial about latest techniques:
http://www.atug.com/andypatterns/PythonDelphiLatest.htm
Converting TAtomPythonEngine is easy: open the form or datamodule hosting the
component, View as text (Alt + F12), replace TAtomPythonEngine by
TPythonEngine, View as Form (Alt + F12), in the unit, replace TAtomPythonEngine
by TPythonEngine nad replace AtomPythonEngine by PythonEngine (in the uses).
Save.
Note that eventhough you get a deprecated warning, it still works as it is and
you`re not required to do the change.
It`s only better to do it for the future and for the additional benefits of
VarPyth...
