I want to try to develop Cocoa application using Python. I'm new to Mac and I need some help to understand how it works.
First of all I found that I need to install py2app and py2objc. I used easy_install as documented here. There were a few errors with setup tools but eventually py2app was installed. Then I launch "easy_install pyobjc==2.2
" and it ended with many errors:
Processing pyobjc-2.2-py2.7.egg
...
Running pyobjc-framework-SystemConfiguration-2.2/setup.py -q bdist_egg --dist-dir /tmp/easy_install-ipMzFU/pyobjc-framework-SystemConfiguration-2.2/egg-dist-tmp-odfVol

My questions:
- What I need to do to install py2objc? Unfortunately, I haven't found a solution for errors, which I posted previously.
- As I understand there are two kinds of python. One I installed into Applications folder (IDLE, launcher), another is the current Python version supplied with OS. Can you describe the difference?
- How can I select the current version of Python used by Mac OS? And what is the Current folder in /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework?
Probably it looks confusing, but this is my first steps! :) Thank you
- Cannot give a definitive answer to that. See comment.
- You can install multiple versions of python on your machine (OSX includes a defualt one as you already mentioned). In the applications folder there are some apps to open an interactive interpreter in which you can enter python commands, such as IDLE. These applications use one of the python versions you've got installed. Which brings us to
python_select
is the command you want. e.g.python_select -l
to list all the python versions you've got installed andpython_select python27
to select your own 2.7 version. TheCurrent
folder links to the version currently selected viapython_select
