Are you using chromium code, or just creating a UI that looks like
chromium's UI?

[chromium-dev] Re: Incorrect files under "\src\third_party\python_24"?

2009-03-09 Thread Sam Kerner
Before python 2.5, a try block could not have both an except and finally
block.  (See
http://docs.python.org/reference/compound_stmts.html#the-try-statement).

In pre-2.5 python, you can get around this using two nested try blocks.

try:
  try:
blah()
  except:
yada()
finally:
  something()

So there are two ways to resolve this:  Use a newer version of python, or
change the code to use two nested try blocks.

[chromium-dev] Re: Writing tips to our build instructions?

2009-02-17 Thread Sam Kerner
Hironori,
   Good catch.  I updated
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/wiki/MacBuildInstructions with the
following text:

The path to the build directory should not contains spaces (e.g. "~/Mac OS
X/chromium"), as this will cause the build to fail.
