I am trying to import the download available at http://home.gna.org/fmit/ into Eclipse (on Ubuntu), compile and run.
I have managed to create a C++ project in Eclipse, and then use the project wizard to import the home folder of the FMIT download. But I am lost when it comes to using the makefile to set the project up, build and run it.
I do .net VB website and Database development so I am kind of lost in Eclipse.
Thx
FMIT exists in Ubuntu's repository. Is there any reason why you can't just use Ubuntu's version, or do you specifically need to compile from source?
sudo apt-get install fmit

I'm trying to set up a work environment on a new machine and I am a bit confused how best to procede.
I've set up a new windows machine and have WSL2 set-up; I plan on using that with VS Code for my development environment.
I have a previous django project that I want to continue working on stored in a folder in a thumb drive.
Do I move the [windows] project folder into the linux folder system and everything is magically ready to go?
Will my previous virtual environment in the existing folder still work or do I need to start a new one?
Is it better to just start a new folder via linux terminal and pull the project from github?
I haven't installed pip, python, or django on the windows OR linux side just yet either.
Any other things to look out for while setting this up would be really appreciated. I'm trying to avoid headaches later by getting it all set-up correctly now!
I would pull it from github, and make sure you have the correct settings for line endings, since they are different between windows and linux. Just let git manage these though:
https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/getting-started-with-git/configuring-git-to-handle-line-endings
Some other suggestions:
Use a version manager in linux to manage your python versions - something like pyenv or asdf. It will make life easier.
Make sure to always create a virtual environment for everything and don't pip install anything in your main python. (I use direnv for virtual env management)
The single exception to the previous suggestion is pipx, which I do install in the main python and then use to install things like cli tools, black, isort, pip-tools etc.
Configure VScode to use the pipx installed versions of black, flake8 etc. for linting purposes.
If you're using Docker, enable the WSL integration for your WSL flavour (probably Ubuntu). Note that docker desktop needs starting before your WSL session.
I downloaded it using pip install supervisor-win, but I didn't know how to configure my Django project file.ini and give Supervisor to manage it. I know how to operate on Linux, not how to write configuration files and use them on Windows.
this is supervisor-win https://pypi.org/project/supervisor-win/
I am using Pycharm and want to install an older version of Django. However, PC only seems to install V2. How can I configure Pycharm to install an older version?
This is about installing an older version, NOT changing a version that has already been installed. I want to configure Pycharm to INSTALL a specific version.
Specifically for installing through PyCharms UI, you can specify which version of a package you want to install in the package manager. Navigate to
File -> Settings(or Preferences on MacOs) -> Project: [project name] -> Project interpreter
and click on the + sign under the cog icon. Then search for Django and specify the version you want to install from the drop down menu below the Description field.
However, if you want to install a different version through the terminal, you should write something along the lines of
pip install Django==[your_version]
As far as I know, there is no way to change the version on creating a new project unless you use your own interpreter when creating a new project.
So you can first create your virtual environment with the django version you want, and then select that venv when creating a new django project:
virtualenv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install django==2.1
When you want to create a new project, select Existing Environment instead of New environment using... and use your custom venv.
It's not possible at the moment. The only workaround, as mentioned by Pedram, is to use the existing interpreter with needed version of Django installed.
I filed a feature request about that, feel free to vote and leave comments.

I would like to use Amazon Windows Instance to test the compatibility of the code which is developed on Mac. I may use the instance once a month for few hours for testing purposes that's it. I don't want my instance running the whole month and costing me.
Hence I am planning to create an instance whenever I want. To test the code I have to install g++, openGL, boost libraries etc. How can do this using scripts?
I am looking for some scripts which install packages on a freshly installed Windows instance, clone the files from git, build and test the software.
For example for AWS Ubuntu instance I can do the following,
./> ssh -i KeyPairForUbuntu.pem ubuntu#instance.eu-central-1.compute.amazonaws.com
./> sudo apt install <packages>
./> git clone pathToTheGit
./> run scons scripts to build and run the project
Is there any similar way to do this for Windows?
Please give any suggestions,
Thanks
try using https://chocolatey.org/
its a package management like apt-get for windows
I am experimenting with setting up Visual Studio Code as my Django IDE, however I'm having difficulty configuring my python workspace environment correctly, such that I can get intellisense for 3rd party modules (like Django) working.
My desktop is Mac OSX, but I run my actual Django environment in a Debian instance inside of virtual box, running on my Mac. I also run Debian in production. I use an NFS share my django project files and virtualenv files between Debian and OSX.
I tried following these instructions for configuring my interpreter, however if I set a custom path like:
/Users/myusername/.virtualenv/myenv/bin/python2.7
It won't work, because that's a debian binaries, not Mac OSX.
In PyCharm I believe there is a way to specify remote interpreters, even on different architectures. There's no way to do something like this in VS Code, right?
Pretty sure what I want is currently impossible. The good news is it's being worked on.
