[issue22804] Can't run Idle in Windows 8 or windows 64
New submission from nx u: Hi, I have just downloaded and installed python34. When I run the short cut IDLE python gui nothing happens ( I think a command window appears briefly - not sure as this happens so quickly). My machine runs windows 8 and 64 bit version of . I did the same on a windows 7 64 bit machine and double clicking the Python IDLE gui 32 bit doesn't work. Not quite sure what's going on. Our machines are located in a school with GPOs controlling access and security. I am from the ICT support team. There isn't much reported on this issue on the internet either except a couple of entries in stackoverflow. But the solutions offered are far off the mark. Please help. The documentation on the Python web site is not clear or not detailed enough to diagnose the fault. -- components: IDLE messages: 230732 nosy: nx.u priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Can't run Idle in Windows 8 or windows 64 versions: Python 3.4 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue22804 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
run runs away
Hello I think my question is how to make the script wait until it returns from a call to run() Here is a code snippet: # next lines calls python2.4 32 bit version # from a script running in python2.3 64 bit version run(python2.4, dbviewmaster.py) # I want the following only to run after # running of python2.4 has finished self.textBrowser1.reload f = open(self.DBMETA,'r') for self.getline in f.readlines(): self.textBrowser1.append(self.getline) f.close() Thanks for any hints how to do that.

Re: run runs away
Thanks for your reply ! I now realize , that the run() used in this code stems from a def , which actually wraps os.spawnv(os.P_WAIT, ...) in a way that eliminates waiting I like this newsgroup as there are always people who are less stumped than oneself.

Re: Installation question
Thanks anyway I wished there was a sure step by step approach to get it to work but I can't think of any good solution and I do not want to reinstall a well optimized system if something goes astray. Nx -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Installation question
I would like to know how to install Qt3 for following setup Already Installed : Suse 9.2 64 version Python 2.3 (for 64) lives in /usr/bin/python2.3 Qt3 (for Python 2.3) Python 2.4 (for 32) lives in /usr/local/bin/python2.4 Want to install Qt3 (for Python 2.4) without messing up my existing installation.

variable hell
Hi I am unpacking a list into variables, for some reason they need to be unpacked into variable names like a0,a1,a2upto aN whatever is in the list. How to create the variables dynamically ? I am looking for something like pseudo code line follows : a%s = str(value) here below is a snippet from the mylist unpack code #next lines cut the end of line character from each line in the list mylist = [line[:-1] for line in mylist] for index,value in enumerate(mylist): if index == 0 : a0 = str(value) print a0 : ,a0 elif index == 1 : a1 = str(value) print a1 : ,a1 Thanks Nx -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: variable hell
Thanks for the many replies here is an example for what it will be used for , in this case fixed at 31 fieldvalues: inputvalues=(s0,s1,s2,s3,s4,s5,s6,s7,s8,s9,s10,s11,s12,s13,s14,s15,s16,s17,s18,s19,s20,s21,s22,s23,s24,s25, s26,s27,s28,s29,s30,s31) MYINSERTSELECT = INSERT INTO ADDRESS(ALIAS,COMPANY,ADDRESSLI1,ADDRESSLI2,ADDRESSCO,TOWN,ZIP,COUNTRY,TEL1,TEL2,FAX,EMAIL,INTERNET,PERSON1,TITLE1,RES1,PERSON2,TITLE2,RES2,PERSON3,TITLE3,RES3,PERSON4,TITLE4,RES4,PERSON5,TITLE5,RES5,PRODALIAS,PAGER,TLX,ADDMEMO) VALUES(?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?) con1.commit() cur = con1.cursor() try : cur.execute(MYINSERTSELECT,inputvalues) con1.commit() print 'Inserted 1 record' except IOError, (errno, strerror): print I/O error(%s): %s % (errno, strerror) except ValueError: print Could not convert data to an integer. except: print Unexpected error:, sys.exc_info()[0] raise I am sure there is an easier way, but I have not found it yet.

Re: variable hell
Why unpack inputvalues if your next step is to pack'em back again ? Or what did I miss ? The original values in this case are being read from a text file with one value including a linefeed per line and the original idea was, that having them read into a list was the best way to massage them into the form required to be used as input values for the insert statement.

Re: variable hell
Thanks for all the responses and animated discussion, which is still the best way to learn something new. Most of the time it is not that you want to do something in a certain way , it rather is one cannot think of a better , faster more efficient way .

Need better way to unpack a list
Is there a better solution to following problem : I want to unpack a list into variables the list is created at runtime and I do not know how many items there will be , but I know not more than 25. The list unpacks into variables which are prev. defined as line1,line2line25 which are actually the names of lineedit fields in a Qt gui application and which need to be populated. I currently use following to achieve that : c=0 while c len(mylinelist): c = c + 1 if c==1: self.line1.setText(mylinelist[c]) if c==2 : self.line2.setText(mylinelist[c]) . . . if c==25: self.line25.setText(mylinelist[c]) I rather have someting like pseudo code follows: self.line+c+.setText(mylinelist[c]) How to do that ?

Re: Need better way to unpack a list
for index, value in enumerate(mylinelist): getattr(self, line%d % (index + 1)).setText(value) Thanks ! This was the line which did it The correct code snippet now reads : # set the lineedits of the QT gui for index,value in enumerate(self.mylinelist): getattr(self, lineEdit%d % (index + 1)).setText(self.tr(value)) Nx -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Python 32 and Python 64 bit
Suse Linux 9.2 64 Python 2.3 64 bit Python 2.4 32 bit My question is : I have a python prog which is installed for python 2.3 but I need some variables filled with data, which I only can get with running a python prog via python 2.4 (data is comming from a firebird database server via kinterbase all needs to be 32 bit). How do I call python 2.4 from within python 2.3 and load my variables with the data from the python 2.4 run ? Nx -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
