LDTP | general | Ver: unspecified
Summary: tutorial describes incorrect function usage
Product: LDTP
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: Normal
Component: general
AssignedTo: ldtp-ma...@gnome.bugs
ReportedBy: dilin...@collabora.co.uk
QAContact: ldtp-dev@lists.freedesktop.org
GNOME version: Unspecified
GNOME milestone: Unspecified
The tutorial at http://download.freedesktop.org/ldtp/doc/ldtp-tutorial.pdf
using launchapp("gedit", 1) to launch applications. However, this doesn't
appear to actually work.
With ldtp 1.6, I get the following:
Python 2.5.4 (r254:67916, Feb 17 2009, 20:16:45)
[GCC 4.3.3] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from ldtp import *
>>> launchapp("gedit", 1)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.5/ldtp.py", line 3675, in launchapp
arg.insert (0, appName)
AttributeError: 'int' object has no attribute 'insert'
With ldtp 1.2 (from debian stable), I get the following:
Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Jan 4 2009, 17:40:26)
[GCC 4.3.2] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from ldtp import *
>>> launchapp("gedit", 1)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/ldtp.py", line 3173, in launchapp
os.execvpe (appName, arg, envVar)
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/os.py", line 363, in execvpe
_execvpe(file, args, env)
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/os.py", line 390, in _execvpe
func(fullname, *argrest)
TypeError: execve() arg 2 must be a tuple or list
Note that in both cases, dropping the second argument allows launchapp to
succeed. The tutorial should be updated to drop the second arg as well.
