Python
There are several tools implemented in Python and wxPython Widgets in the
Tools/Python directory. These are optional tools, and are not necessary in
order to use or build the edk2 code. In order to use them you must
install Python 2.4.x and wxWidgets 2.8.x for your platform. The tools
have been tested and work correctly on OS X, Linux and Windows.
There is a script called Install_Python_OSX.sh that will download and
install the correct versions for OS X. For other platforms, please find
the installers for your platform at the following sites:
- http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.4.4/ (Python interpreter)
- http://www.wxpython.org/download.php#binaries (Python GUI extensions)
Your linux distribution may contain packages of python and wxPython, which
should work, provided they are are compatible with the above specified
versions.
