calling super()

[Finger . Octopus]

Hello, I have been trying to call the super constructor from my
derived class but its not working as expected. See the code:

class HTMLMain:
def __init__(self):
self.text = "";
print(self.text);
def __del__(self):
self.text = "";
print(self.text);

class NewPage(HTMLMain):
def __init__(self):
print 'derive2 init'
super(NewPage, self).__init__();


N = NewPage();
del N


And here's the error message I get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "e:/PyEN/inherit.py", line 16, in 
N = NewPage();
  File "e:/PyEN/inherit.py", line 12, in __init__
super(NewPage, self).__init__();
TypeError: super() argument 1 must be type, not classobj

Distributing Python Applications

[Finger . Octopus]

Hello,

It has been such a painful thing for me. As I made a program to
encrypt files, now I want to distribute that program over other
computers. I created .EXE file with py2exe but the "dist" folder makes
around 2 mb and it restricts for the python DLL to be within the same
folder. Is there any easy way to get this thing done in just one exe
file? I mean if I do interfacing with C/C++ will it work for me and if
I do interfacing with C/C++ will it be necessary on the other computer
to have python installed on it?


Thanks in advance...

There are no examples of Dejavu that I found yet. I have installed it
but don't know how to use or call its functions.

Database Programming with Python

[Finger . Octopus]

Hi

I wanted to connect Python to Ms-Access database using ADO or ODBC. I
have Python 2.5 and on mxODBC site, it has no higher version build
than 2.4. Moreoever, mxODBC is required for ADODB.
Can anyone guide me on this what should I do to make it work on Python
2.5? I have python 2.5 running on server.

Problem - Win32 Programming

[Finger . Octopus]

Hi ..

I'm a newbie to python win32 programming. I was just reading Python
Programming on Win32 and I was trying to run this program:

# SimpleCOMServer.py - A sample COM server - almost as small as they
come!
#
# We expose a single method in a Python COM object.
class PythonUtilities:
_public_methods_ = [ 'SplitString' ]
_reg_progid_ = "PythonDemos.Utilities"
# NEVER copy the following ID
# Use "print pythoncom.CreateGuid()" to make a new one.
_reg_clsid_ = "{41E24E95-D45A-11D2-852C-204C4F4F5020}"

def SplitString(self, val, item=None):
import string
if item != None: item = str(item)
return string.split(str(val), item)

# Add code so that when this script is run by
# Python.exe, it self-registers.
if __name__=='__main__':
print "Registering COM server..."
import win32com.server.register
win32com.server.register.UseCommandLine(PythonUtilities)


I am using Python 2.5 and it says:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "E:/PyEN/PythonUtilities.py", line 20, in 
import win32com.server.register
ImportError: No module named win32com.server.register

I havn't said "doesn't work", I rather doesn't seem to work.

How can I access data from MS Access?

[Finger . Octopus]

How to access data from MS Access? I tried ADOdb for Python but it
doesn't seems to work.

Even the official examples dont work, like this one:

import adodb
conn = adodb.NewADOConnection('access') # mxodbc required
dsn = "Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};Dbq=d:\\inetpub\\adodb\
\northwind.mdb;"
conn.Connect(dsn)


(I have downloaded mxodbc, but still it doesn't works)
