[Pythonmac-SIG] Gtk issues
[A bit of a noob here, running Tiger on a Mac mini]
Spent well over an hour last night with MacPorts, installing modules necessary
to run gramps. The software needs several modules, particularly Gtk. For the
past couple of weeks, I've tried several methods of installing Gtk, including
Fink and trying to compile it myself, and while I get few/no errors, gramps
each time burps on the line:
import gtk
and replies: No module named gtk
The relevant batch of code ...
try:
import pygtk
pygtk.require('2.0')
except ImportError:
pass
import gtk
from gtk import glade
import gobject
I add the pygtk info because the error exception doesn't appear to check for
much, so I'm wondering if that isn't a cause of the gtk problem.
If I type: port installed gtk2
I get:
gtk2 @2.16.1_4+darwin_8+x11 (active)
If I type: port installed py25-gtk
I get:
py25-gtk @2.14.1_0 (active)
My hunch is that this is a sys.path problem. But if so, I don't know what file
to look for so that I can add the path to sys.path. There are several files
with gtk in the name on my hard drive, _gtk.so?

Hello, I have a mac mini mac os 10.4.11 aquamacs 22.3.1.

[Pythonmac-SIG] question about garbage collection with NSApplication.run()
I'm writing a Python program that has a main that looks like this: application = NSApplication.sharedApplication() # set up handler for network change notification SCDynamicStoreSetNotificationKeys(DYNSTORE, None, [NETWORK_KEY,]) # Get a CFRunLoopSource for our store session and add it to the application's runloop: CFRunLoopAddSource( NSRunLoop.currentRunLoop().getCFRunLoop(), SCDynamicStoreCreateRunLoopSource(None, DYNSTORE, 0), kCFRunLoopCommonModes ) # add a timer for application scan events timer = NSTimer.scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval_target_selector_userInfo_repeats_( periodicity, scanner, objc.selector(scanner.scan, signature=v@:), None, True) # using an NSRunLoop avoids Activity Monitor complaining about not responding application.run() Do I need to do anything about NSAutoreleasePools? My understanding is that this is single-threaded, and that NSApplication.run will handle periodic drainage of the default main thread release pool.

Re: [Pythonmac-SIG] Whats the invalid syntax about
please suggest what could have gone wrong here why am i getting a syntax error It's a quirk of the interactive interpreter. To terminate a loop you need a blank input line: some_list = [3,6,2,5] i = 1 while i 3: ... print some_list[i], ; ... i = i + 1 ... 6 ; 2 ; print some_list[3] 5 -- Skip Montanaro - s...@pobox.com - http://www.smontanaro.net/ America's vaunted free press notwithstanding, story ideas that expose the unseemly side of actual or potential advertisers tend to fall by the wayside.

So you have to issue this in a shell. You can create a shell in Aquamacs by typing `ESC x shell' (without the quotes). Another possibility, after Python- start interpreter, is Python-Execute Buffer. For small snippets of code this may be easier, but for complete programs the shell method may be better. A shell can also be run outside of Aquamacs with the Terminal application. -- Piet van Oostrum p...@cs.uu.nl URL: http://pietvanoostrum.com [PGP 8DAE142BE17999C4] Private email: p...@vanoostrum.org ___ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
[Pythonmac-SIG] Can't get ASDictionary to work (py2app problems?)
Hi,
I'm trying to use appscript on my MacBook Pro running OS X 10.5.7 and
the stock Apple Python. It's never had appscript installed before.
However, I can't get the binary ASDictionary I downloaded to run:

So I tried building newer versions of everything, which helped in the
past. I did run into a problem with modulegraph and newer versions of
setuptools but that was easily fixed.
Now I seem to be having issues with py2app. First, if I try to use
the bundled PyObjC, py2app doesn't pick it up, so I get an error
trying to import 'objc'.
Next, I tried installing the current PyObjC, but now I get a truly
weird error running the built ASDictionary:

Why is it trying to look for _objc.so *there*? It's actually in
/Library/Python/2.5/site-packages/pyobjc_core-2.2b2-py2.5-macosx-10.5-i386.egg/objc/_objc.so.
If I build ASDictionary with py2app -A, I'm back to the old error
about not being able to import objc:
