Hi all, I'm writing about PyObjC, and found a couple of rough spots. I decided it would be easier to fix them than explain how to work around them :-)
The files with the fixes in them are here: <http://rentzsch.com/share/pyobjc-1.3.6-macosx10.4-wolf.zip> The archive contains four files: $ find . -type f ./Library/Application Support/Apple/Developer Tools/Project Templates/Application/PyObjC Application/PROJECTNAMEASIDENTIFIER.xcode/default.pbxuser ./Library/Application Support/Apple/Developer Tools/Project Templates/Application/PyObjC Document-based Application/PROJECTNAMEASIDENTIFIER.xcode/default.pbxuser ./Library/Application Support/Apple/Developer Tools/Project Templates/Application/PyObjC Mixed Application/PROJECTNAMEASIDENTIFIER.xcode/default.pbxuser ./Library/Python/2.3/site-packages/PyObjC/PyObjCTools/XcodeSupport/api.py As the archive name implies, I'm targeting 10.4. My changes shouldn't break anything on 10.3, but I haven't personally verified that. Two things fixed: * Xcode 2.1 py2app build exception. Bob mentioned PyObjC 1.4 will fix the .xcodeproj name-change breakage issue. I don't know the 1.4 timeline, so I'm writing about what's out now. My version of the api.py first tries .xcodeproj, and falls back to .xcode if it's not found. Tested on Xcode 2.1 and 2.0. * New PyObjC app projects created via the New Project Assistant didn't have any executables in the project, so Build+Go on new projects were broken out-of-the-box. Bob documented how to fix up your project here: http://pyobjc.sourceforge.net/doc/xcode-templates.php I dug into this a little bit and discovered Custom Executables are stored in the .pbxuser files, not the .pbxproj files. So, I created a default.pbxuser file with the Custom Executable settings, templatized them and popped them the project templates. Seems to work now, both in Xcode 2.0 and 2.1. It would be super if sometime over the next two or three weeks there could be an official release with these changes (assuming no one minds them, of course). I want to make my text to make it look so easy to pick up PyObjC, that there's no reason not to :-) | Jonathan 'Wolf' Rentzsch http://rentzsch.com | Red Shed Software http://redshed.net | "better" necessarily means "different" _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
