I believe it's in the 2.5 beta; I don't know if it's been applied to any 2.4.x releases yet; you'd need to ask. All the other AE modules except Carbon.AE are completely broken on Intel due to endianness issues (and some on PPC too due to other bugs), but are unlikely to be fixed as they're all crude and crusty and obsoleted by appscript/aem/aemreceive anyway. If you want to do basic AE handling, use aemreceive.

Hi I'm trying to open pictures with my program using right click and "Open with...". It works when the program is already started, but when the program gets started with the "Open with..." I don't receive an Action Event at all it seems. Why is this? And how do I fix it? Thanks, Stefan

Dear Hi I'm trying to install MySQLdb-1.2.1 on Mac OS X and would appreciate anyone's help on the matter.

Errors in Numpy running matplotlib

I'm get a bus error running matplotlib - the error occurs just from importing pylab . I'm running 10.4.7 on an Intel mac. All of the python libraries I'm using came from the macpython site.

Matplotlib, other libs and the Universal Python
by Christopher Barker July 15, 2006

July 15, 2006

Hi all, I'm working on Building a Matplotlib that will work with the Universal Python. I was going along just fine, following the procedure that I've used before, but low and behold, I've run into a problem. MPL Requires libpng and a version of libfreetype that doesn't come with OS-X. In the past, I built static versions of these, put them in a place where distutils will find them, and presto! However, I have a PPC Mac, so I now have PPC libs, and that's won't link with the Intel binaries. At least that's what I think the problem is. In any case, I know that will be a problem. So, while I dig around the net for ways to build a universal static libs from libpng and libfreetype, does anyone have any hints for me? Of ready to go packages of these? -Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer NOAA/OR&R/HAZMAT (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception Chris.Barker(a)noaa.gov

No one answered my question directly, but both Bob and Ronald have spoken: It's better for each package to statically link any libs it needs (unless Apple provides them), even though that means that a given python program may well end up using three copies of the same lib. Just to be totally clear: Is there any problem with the same program using three slightly different versions of the same lib? > I'll have to package up my package build script one of these days ;-) What does it do?

Maybe it would be helpful to have a standard way to link static libs with our packages. What I've done for matplotlib is create a "StaticLibs" directory at the same level as the setup./py, then hacked the setup.py to include it in the linking (and header) paths. I'll probably create one that has all of the above libs in it, then I can add a symlink to it for each package I'm trying to build. If anyone has any better ideas, I'd be glad to hear them. -Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer NOAA/OR&R/HAZMAT (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception Chris.Barker(a)noaa.gov

(no subject)

Hi, Some time ago I asked this list for help with a "Newbie problem" which was really about Cocoa rather than PyObjC: to determine which button of a set of radio buttons (NSMatrix) was selected. Bob Ippolito kindly suggested the following elegant filter solution (given radioMatrix as an outlet, and getRadio_() as the action to PyAppDelegate: def getRadio_(self): selectedCells = filter(lambda cell: cell.intValue() == 1, self.radioMatrix.cells()) This actually seemed to work 1.5 years ago. I can't verify that now easily. Today I had occasion to go back to this code and it clearly has a problem. The list of cells with intValue() == 1 includes both the currently selected cell and the previously selected one. Each time I select a new button, I get two positives from the filter, unless I choose the same button twice in a row. Even selectedCells() is supposed to return both selected and *highlighted* cells, according to the docs. In my tests, selectedCells() returns the correct value, but it seems better to use selectedCell(). Or, selectedRow() (for a single column matrix) can also be queried to get the correct value. I don't know if this is surprising or it's obvious to everybody. FYI. Thanks for all your help. Someday I intend to write a FAVSQ for PyObjC (FA very simple Q). I think it's wonderful what you've done, but even simple things have taken me quite a while to figure out. And I think a helpful thing would be to dissect out very simple examples of all common situations. Tom Elliott

It sounds like you might be installing an OS X 10.3 compiler on OS X 10.4 or something. Don't do that. Get the latest Xcode from connect.apple.com and install that. If it says 3.3 still, then use sudo gcc_select 4. -bob
