pythonw and python with applescript
by Zhi Peng Dec. 15, 2005

Dec. 15, 2005

Hi! All I posted a few items in a few days. I think the first problem I had is that it can not import python module when I used "from appscrpt import *" inside modue because appscript need pythonw instead of python. Here is the error message: ======================================================== zhi-pengs-power-mac-g5:~/Documents/projects/c-code/pyToDLL/test1 zpeng$ python Python 2.3.5 (#1, Mar 20 2005, 20:38:20) [GCC 3.3 20030304 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 1809)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import StringModule Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?

Re: [Pythonmac-SIG] Slow python initialization

Suspecting the hard drive, I ran Disk Utility on it from another startup disk. The Disk Repair option found, among other things, a large number of orphaned nodes (inodes?) whose names started with "temp" and repaired them. Whatever it did, it seems to have fixed my problem. Thanks.

Re: [Pythonmac-SIG] Distutils for research?
by Schollnick, Benjamin Dec. 13, 2005

> Is distutils more for distributing packages/modules than developing? The only situation I use distutils is for installing packages/modules, and distributing the software that I write (via py2app & py2exe). To my knowledge distutils is primarily for distributing packages & modules... Someone please correct us if we are wrong. - Ben

Slow python initialization
by Bill Spotz Dec. 13, 2005

Dec. 13, 2005

I recently upgraded my dual-processor G5 from Mac OS X 10.3 to 10.4. Ever since, the python initialization has been extremely slow, maybe 10 seconds or so between issuing the "python" command and getting a prompt. I run some automated tests on this machine, and the delays can add up, dwarfing the actual execution time. The problem persists whether I: * Run python 2.4.2 (/sw/bin/python, compiled w/GCC 4.0.0) or 2.3.5 (/usr/bin/python, compiled w/GCC 3.3) * Run with or without a PYTHONSTARTUP file * Run under bash 3.00.0(1) (/sw/bin/bash) or 2.05b.0(1) (/bin/bash) Has anyone else seen this behavior? Or have a solution? (Similarly, although less related to this mailing list, when I try to use tab- completion under bash, I get a long delay as well.)

(snip) >>>> PyRun_SimpleString("sys.path.append('.\')\n"); (snip) I try to throw in my 5 Cent: The backslash (Windows path separator?) following the dot might be the problem. So let me guess, the program runs on Windows, but not on Unix. (Sorry for my silly quoting, but Lotus Notes is a pain!) -- Matthias

Mac PyImport_ImportModule("modulename")
by Zhi Peng Dec. 13, 2005

Dec. 13, 2005

Hi! All In my c code, I have used myMod=PyImport_ImportModule("moduleName") and run on Mac, but it just can not import the "moduleName" for some unknown reason. I am sure I install the "moduleName" by "pythonw setup install". And I can import "moduleName" from command lines such as >pythonw >import moduleName > It is fine. I wonder why PyImport_ImportModule can not import it, while it can import module os by using PyImport_ImportModule("os") Any suggestion? Thanks Zhi --------------------------------- Yahoo!
