Re: [Idle-dev] Python Core Dump

I'm running Python 2.4.2 under windoze. If you go to idle and select "open module" from the file menu - and choose "operator", then Python crashes. Obviously attempting to open a C module like this isn't sensible - assuming you *knew* it was a C module. Anyway - I hope this report is vaguely interesting or amusing to someone out there. Hmm... I suppose I should report a bug on sourceforge. If I try this with 2.4.2 on W2K, I get an error dialog which says, "No source for module operator". There is no operator.py on my path. Mine neither - ``operator.pyd`` This could be an oddity of my windoze setup I suppose, but it's a fairly normal - XP SP2 running Activepython 2.4.2 It happens consistently, including on another machine running a Movable Python distribution frozen from the original machine. (It's also XP SP2).  (The Movable Python machine is the one I'm using now.) What happens when you try <import operator> using the Python interactive interpreter? >From the Movable Python machine I'm on now : >>> import operator >>> operator <module 'operator' (built-in)> >>> Is it still worth me filing this as a bug report ? All the best, Fuzzyman http://www.voidspace.org.uk/python/index.shtml
