Windows compatibility for the GUI

waveform80 opened this issue 10 years ago · comments

This'll be a pain in the ass given the dreadful state of Python distros on Windows but it's probably worth doing. Need to add PySide compat. into the GUI portion and figure out how on earth to build netifaces for win64

Windows compatibility more or less works at this point, but the network interface list needs fixing in the find dialog (just displays the UUID of the network interface as opposed to anything useful like a description). Getting the description seems to be inordinately difficult but we should be able to get the interface address which would be reasonably useful instead...

Then of course there's the hell that is packaging on Windows...

Shunting this to 1.0 - it's been ages since a release and I think everyone using this is happy without formal Windows support at the mo

Tested with 0.4 under the Anaconda scientific distribution; Windows support still works, and netifaces is easier to install these days. Still no idea how to get the interface name though...
