Can i publish a python-based app in Nokia Store?
hello guys, my friends and i have developed some python-based app. we are planning to publish it to nokia store.
but here's the problem, in nokia developer page ([url]https://www.developer.nokia.com/Distribute/Packaging_and_signing.xhtml[/url]) i can't found package signing for python.
actually we are thinking to use qt. but i think it will need more time and we aren't familiar with qt. what do u think?
thanks anyway :)

I can't speak for the Nokia Publish organization, but assuming that you're talking of PyS60 (Python for S60/Symbian), I suppose that if it is packaged in an installable Symbian SIS/SISX file, and does not depend on a separate installation of the PyS60 runtime, it should be OK.
Re: Can i publish a python-based app in Nokia Store?
Python applications can be packed as Symbian applications, then the Symbian signing rules apply.
See the Python book in the Wiki, [url]http://www.developer.nokia.com/Community/Wiki/Python_on_Symbian[/url], chapter 16 describes the packaging tool. Of course it may have changed over time, but the basics should be the same.

oh i see.
but how if the user who downloaded my apps doesn't have python runtime? should i 'embed' the python runtime inside all of my apps or what?
sorry if i asked too much :D

The packager actually packs Python runtime with your code.
