I'm making progress, but I'm not out of the woods yet. I'm trying to run some of the programs from the tutorial web pages, and from the pyglet1.2alpha1/examples directory. I've realized that I will probably need to run 2to3 on the many of the latter.
The Hello, World example runs. http://www.pyglet.org/doc/programming_guide/hello_world.html The Image Viewer example... http://www.pyglet.org/doc/programming_guide/image_viewer.html ...runs if I provide a local image file, and load it using pyglet.image.load(). As written, the example fails on the line: image = pyglet.resource.image('kitten.jpg') It's possible that the alpha1.2 version of PyGLet is missing some resources. It looks like the code for the bouncing ball example ought to work, but it doesn't. That code can be found on the web at: http://www.pyglet.org/doc/programming_guide/noisy.py and also in the PyGLet package, in the folder pyglet1.2alpha1/examples/noisy. Here's my traceback which, I am sorry to report, I find less than fully informative: =============================== Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/lib/python3.3/dist-packages/pyglet/__init__.py", line 332, in __getattr__ return getattr(self._module, name) AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'load' During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/lib/python3.3/dist-packages/pyglet/lib.py", line 111, in load_library lib = ctypes.cdll.LoadLibrary(name) File "/usr/lib/python3.3/ctypes/__init__.py", line 431, in LoadLibrary return self._dlltype(name) File "/usr/lib/python3.3/ctypes/__init__.py", line 353, in __init__ self._handle = _dlopen(self._name, mode) OSError: libavbin.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred: Traceback (most recent call last): File "noisy.py", line 56, in <module> sound = pyglet.resource.media(BALL_SOUND, streaming=False) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.3/dist-packages/pyglet/resource.py", line 610, in media return media.load(path, streaming=streaming) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.3/dist-packages/pyglet/__init__.py", line 338, in __getattr__ __import__(import_name) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.3/dist-packages/pyglet/media/__init__.py", line 1469, in <module> from . import avbin File "/usr/local/lib/python3.3/dist-packages/pyglet/media/avbin.py", line 64, in <module> darwin='/usr/local/lib/libavbin.dylib') File "/usr/local/lib/python3.3/dist-packages/pyglet/lib.py", line 118, in load_library if ((self.linux_not_found_error not in o.message) and AttributeError: 'OSError' object has no attribute 'message' =============================== I think that only the top few lines of this traceback are relevant. Somehow a None is being passed into some function in pyglet/__init__.py, when that function expects an object with an attribute named "load". Looking at the source, the function being called is _ModuleProxy.__getattr__(). I often find that Python's tracebacks stop one level short of what I really want to know. The top level calling function is frequently not named. What part of noisy.py called the code that crashed? Is there any way to get traceback to tell you more? Anyway, I wondered whether this might be a Python compatibility wart in noisy.py. Thus I tried running 2to3 on noisy.py, even though my eyes told me that the code was OK. 2to3 agreed with me, reporting: "RefactoringTool: No changes to noisy.py". I'm not sure where to go next with this. One thing is for certain, all of this is way over the heads of my students... -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
