wxpython example on windows with python3.5 and wxPython-4.0.0a

[Andrew Leech]

Firstly I just want to say a big thanks (to you and your sponsors) for getting cross platform cefpython up and running again!!!

On a related not, the wxPython Phoenix project has just dropped it's first (alpha) release!

https://pypi.python.org/pypi/wxPython/4.0.0a1

I've done some initial testing on Windows and there's a couple of little changes required to the wxpython.py sample app to support the pheonix api:

* wx.Timer needs a different method of binding the event

* wx.Panel().GetClientSizeTuple() is gone, replace with wx.Panel().GetClientSize().Get()

* OnExit() should return an int.

Full working code attached, or I'm happy to make a pull request if you're interested?

I'm having trouble installing wxPython 4.0 on Linux (Ubuntu 14.04). Any idea? Logs below:

The configuration failed
    (complete log in /tmp/pip-build-j042bsx8/wxPython/build/waf/3.6/config.log)
    Command '"/home/cz/.pyenv/versions/3.6.0/bin/python3.6" /tmp/pip-build-j042bsx8/wxPython/bin/waf-1.7.15-p1 --wx_config=/tmp/pip-build-j042bsx8/wxPython/build/wxbld/wx-config --python="/home/cz/.pyenv/versions/3.6.0/bin/python3.6" --out=build/waf/3.6 configure build ' failed with exit code 1.

    Command '"/home/cz/.pyenv/versions/3.6.0/bin/python3.6" -u build.py build' failed with exit code 1.


Recently I've also tried installing wxPython 3.0 on Linux and failed as well.

Thanks Andrew for the patch. I've already commited it, the changes do work fine with old wxpython so it's good. Created Issue #348 for this.

My primary dev environs are osx and windows which are more easily supported by the wheels. That being said I can't get cefpython3 to work with  wxPython 4 on mac at all yet, different issue(s) I'll document later.

I haven't tried building the library myself yet.

There are a mix of snapshots pre-built although I don't think there's any 3.6 yet:

I'd like to set up an example of an autobuild for the wxpython project based on the pypa manylinux docker image to simplify the fragmentation issue, but not sure if/when I'll find the time.

Thanks. Finally I made it run on Python 3.4. Linux required additional fixes, applied in #349. The mac issue you're having may be similar to Linux issue, see details in #348.
