Yeah, I'm a bit sick of Python. We have some internal utilities written in it and while developers could manage all the dependencies and everything, we kept having problems with getting everything working on the machines of our electronics techs.
Gradually pretty much everything has been rewritten in C++ (with Qt GUI framework). Way easier to be able to have a setup program (using free InnoSetup) that just extracts the eight or so DLLs required in the same folder as the EXE and that's it.
We just use Python for a bit of prototyping and data crunching here and there now.

- stephen_g 7y agoYeah, we tried all sorts of ways to do it. Couldn’t get it to work satisfactorily with the particular libraries we were using.
