How to specify Python version in script?
I have a script that must be run with Python 2.6.x. If one tries to run it with, say, 2.5.x, *eventually* it runs into problems and crashes. (The failure is quicker if one attempts to run it with Python 3.x.) Is there some way to specify at the very beginning of the script the acceptable range of Python versions? TIA! kynn P.S. I know that I can hardcode the path to a specific intpreter in the #! line, but I'm trying to keep the code a bit more general than that. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: How to specify Python version in script?
Hello, If you are working on linux, you can change the shebang line from: #!/usr/bin/python to: #!/usr/bin/python2.6 Best regards, Javier P.S. If you just want to avoid python 3 while running the latest python 2.x version, this should also work: #!/usr/bin/python2 2009/11/11 Benjamin Kaplan benjamin.kap...@case.edu: On Wed, Nov 11, 2009 at 12:16 PM, kj no.em...@please.post wrote: I have a script that must be run with Python 2.6.x.

If you just want to avoid python 3 while running the latest python 2.x version, this should also work: #!/usr/bin/python2 True, except that it doesn't meet the OP's requirements. The OP wanted to be able to specify a range of versions. The problem with changing the shebang line is that there's no way to say python 2.5 or 2.6 or 2.7 Regardless, it's much better to do #!/usr/bin/evn python2.6 instead of hard-coding the path because not everyone has their interpreter in the same spot. I have the Macports python 2.6.4 installed in /opt/local/bin and I'd get kind of annoyed if a script, insisted on using the 2.6.1 that came with the system, especially if it depends on 3rd party libraries. 2009/11/11 Benjamin Kaplan benjamin.kap...@case.edu: On Wed, Nov 11, 2009 at 12:16 PM, kj no.em...@please.post wrote: I have a script that must be run with Python 2.6.x.
