hi everyone, to anyone who has profiled their Python code using hotshot; I designed a test case using hotshot that is basically a stripped down version of the example code found here:
http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/hotshot-example.html So I tried using the example code verbatim to see if I get the same error messages, and I do! When I try "import hotshot.stats" I get: >>> import hotshot.stats Traceback (most recent call last): File "<pyshell#1>", line 1, in -toplevel- import hotshot.stats File "/usr/lib/python2.3/hotshot/stats.py", line 3, in -toplevel- import profile ImportError: No module named profile When I try "import hotshot.stats" again I get no error message, so I assume the import on the second try has found the module. Everything seems honky dory until I try "stats = hotshot.stats.load("stones.prof")": >>> stats = hotshot.stats.load("stones.prof") Traceback (most recent call last): File "<pyshell#13>", line 1, in -toplevel- stats = hotshot.stats.load("stones.prof") AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'load' I've confirmed the stones.prof file exists and that I am in the same directory where the file is, so I am in a situation where IDLE is telling me hotshot.stats has no attribute 'load'. I've confirmed hotshot.stats does indeed have attribute 'load' from: http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/module-hotshot.stats.html so now I am at my wit's end as to what the problem is. I can't use hotshot since I can't load the profile data. Am I doing something wrong ? _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
