Hi,
I'm developing a PyObjC application in Xcode and Interface Builder,
and am having a problem related to py2app and Xcode. I can build and
run my application just fine under development, but am having a
problem with running the application in deployment (build works just
fine). I can build my app just fine from the command line ($ python
setup.py py2app), however, when I try and run the application, I am
getting the following error:
KeyError: u'PyObjCXcode'
and the result from the Console:
Traceback (most recent call last):

The only reference I've found to a problem like this is here:
http://osdir.com/ml/python.pyobjc.devel/2005-11/msg00015.html
The workaround solution offered there was:
"the workaround is to recompile the bootstrap in py2app. If you delete
it (py2app/bundletemplate/prebuilt/main I think) then it should
recompile itself next time you build an app"
I deleted prebuilt/main, but it didn't fix the problem.
For reference, I have two versions of python installed, 2.4.4 and 2.5,
but 2.4.4 is set as my default. I'm running Mac OS X.4.11 on PowerPC.
My Py2app is only installed for python 2.4.4. I had a prior
compatibility problem between Xcode & Py2app, in that Xcode did not
see Py2app (presumable because Xcode used 2.5, not 2.4.4), but got
around this by writing a custom build command that invokes 2.4.4.
My hunch is that the problem is related to the key PyObjCXcode not
existing within the infoDictionary for the mainBundle. The error
happens at the line:
info = NSBundle.mainBundle().infoDictionary()[u'PyObjCXcode']
Beyond this, however, I'm at a loss.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Craig
