Hi all, I've been wandering through the DOCs for an hour and haven't found a solution to this I'm just starting to convert from 2.5 to 3.2 and I have a problem. I have a code that looks like this.
from tkinter import * import time import datetime import string import math import random print (time.localtime()) def foo(): print (time.localtime()) print(time.localtime()) class StarDate: """ implements StarDates regular dates but with output in the form: YYYYMMDD:HHMMSS.FFFF or represented by a 6-Tuple (Yr, Mon, Day, Hour, Min, Sec) """ def __init__(self, tTuple=None): tt=self tt.tm_year = tt.tm_mon = tt.tm_mday = tt.tm_hour = 0 tt.tm_min = tt.tm_sec = tt.tm_wday = tt.tm_yday = 0 tt.tm_isdst = 0 if type(tTuple) == type(None): tTuple = time.localtime() elif ....... The two print statements work as expected, printing the tuple of the local time. The function foo and the StarDate class definition both fail with the error. File "starDate.py", line 37 , in foo print(time.localtime()) NameError: global name 'time' is not defined or File "starDate.py", line 103, in __init__ tTuple = time.localtime() NameError: global name 'time' is not defined What am I missing? This is a long used and tested file and class that is used in several more complex python programs. why doesn't the definition of time at the top level get recognized inside the class? If I can't get a simple two class file working in 3.2, I despair of ever moving to 3.2 Please reply directly.
