Hello,
I am a VB6 programmer and I would like to learn a new high level language (instead of restarting from scratch with .NET), wich is opensource and cross-platform, in order to develop cross-platform business applications
I think Python is the most suitable language for the scope.
My question are:
- Which version of python is more suitable for creating cross-platform GUI's? I've herard of PyGTK, wxPython, PyQT, tk, Anygui..
It's a matter of taste. I like wxPython best. It would probably be different if PyQT was also open-source on win32.
- What is the best IDE/RAD for Python (written in Python and OpenSource)
You should check out ERIC/Qt. If you need to target Windows, then you can consider buying a win32 Qt/PyQt license.
The best IDE I've seen so far is WingIDE (commercial).
- Does exist a tool (written in Python and OpenSource) like Crystal Report for creating business reports?
Reportlab is the closest I know.
- Does exist a tool (written in Python and OpenSource) for makeing tables, view, querys, relation of a database and generate the SQL script?
Rekall is the closest.
- Is it possible, from Python, to work with sqlite? And with MsAccess?
Yes.
pysqlite (http://pysqlite.org/), and pyado, if by MsAccess you mean using the JET engine via ADO.
HTH,
