I don't know whether it's possible to make use of this without installing the rest of Python 3, though. I just tested the following on a WinXP machine without Python installed (except for the Python in the GRASS installation): - Go to https://bitbucket.org/vinay.sajip/pylauncher - Download launchwin.msi (https://bitbucket.org/vinay.sajip/pylauncher/downloads/launchwin.msi) - Install by double-clicking or with msiexec /i launcher.msi Result: - I can call python modules from the command line (v.db.update, v.db.renamecolumn) - Calling a script from a script works (v.db.renamecolumn) This is without any py.ini, so IIUC just relying on the /usr/bin/env python shebangs in the scripts ! When I installed a 2.7.5 Python from python.org, everything still works the same way, but launching python at the prompt gives me 2.7.5 (i.e. the python.org version, not the GRASS installed version which is 2.7.4), so I suppose that the system-wide installed python is launched, even though its path is at the very end of %PATH%, after grass\extrabin. When I installed a 3.3 version from python.org, running python from the GRASS command line gives me 2.7.4, but running GRASS GUI gives me error messages as does trying to launch v.db.update or other scripts at the command line. The error message contains a reference to python33.dll. Running py -2 gives an error that version 2 is not found. So it seems that the python launcher does not take into account the PATH, PYTHONHOME, and PYTHONPATH settings which all point correctly to the GRASS version of Python, but rather still calls the installed 3.3 version (even it the path to that version is not in PATH). I guess the launcher takes its information from the registry. However, I still think this looks promising as the whole idea of the launcher is to allow multiple instances of Python to run on the same machine. So, maybe it would be enough to figure out how to register the GRASS installation of Python in the registry and then install an .ini in the GRASS7 Application Data directory to direct the python launcher to that version?

The bottom line is that the .py extension has to be associated with a Python interpreter, or something which invokes one (e.g. py.exe). There are multiple valid solutions, and GRASS cannot impose a particular one. But it seems that the launcher is more or less transparent to an existing python installation, i.e. if the user has Python installed (and Python is registered in the registry and the relevant path is in PATH), the launching python on the command line will still call that installed python and double-clicking on a .py file will still launch the file with the installed Python. Only if you use specific shebangs or set up an .ini file, it will call another python. It thus seems the least invasive way of making GRASS use its embedded python. We can then add to the documentation that users need to add a specific shebang to their GRASS python scripts. Another interesting hint concerning the launcher (from [1]): Customised commands allow the launcher to operate as a very flexible shebang line processor, not limited to launching Python scripts. For example, you can launch Perl, Ruby or Haskell scripts using the launcher (as long as the file type associations are set up for the corresponding .pl, .rb and .hs extensions to point to the launcher, and that the launcher’s configuration allows it to map perl, ruby and runhaskell progname values to the paths of the corresponding executables). Of course, those programs already set the registry up to point to their launchers: but using the customisability of the Python launcher, you could (for example) cause ‘perl’ in a shebang line to invoke the Perl interpreter with useful default arguments such as –w (which enables many useful warnings and is recommended).

At this stage, in a fresh installation of GRASS7 on WinXP, I can launch (and successfully execute) python scripts from the wxGUI menu or the wxGUI command console, but not from the windows terminal. However, calling a script from a script (e.g. v.db.dropcolumn called from v.db.renamecolumn) does not work. yes ... and as described above, not every windows system is 'fresh'... - A third issue, related to the previous IIUC, is how to integrate (i.e. make launchable) script addons. yes ... all logical? ... not always for me ... :o( - best regards Helmut -- View this message in context: http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/Re-GRASS-GIS-7-tech-preview-release-preparations-tp5066002p5068830.html Sent from the Grass - Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ grass-dev mailing list grass-dev@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-dev
