Re: Latest TCL/TK breaks Python's tkinter
I have built a new tkinter that works with the latest Tcl/Tk and a Cygwin DLL built from the CVS source If anyone wantw to try just dropping this on top of the older one I have temporarily placed it on the web at http://www.vso.cape.com/~nhv/files/python/tkinter.tgz feedback as to if this works appreciated I installed tcltk-20030128-3 (which I haven't seen announced yet) and reinstalled python-2.2.2-4 - tkinter did not work, as expected. I then dropped your _tkinter.dll in place. tkinter now works.

It's strange that every new release of tcl/tk breaks all past programs which rely on it. Hopefully we've stabilized on tcl8.4.1 for a while. Otherwise, perhaps someone wants to volunteer to maintain the old tcl packages so we can have a 'tcltk83' package as well as a generic 'tcltk', similar to what Red Hat and other distributions do in situations like this. cgf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
Re: Latest TCL/TK breaks Python's tkinter
It's strange that every new release of tcl/tk breaks all past programs which rely on it. I would not say that this is strange. The tcl/tk that is in cygwin, is only for insight/gdb, as the comment says. It is not a full distribution of tcl/tk. See the thread tclsh83.exe should be cygtclsh83.exe. -Bill -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

Who do you think releases tcl/tk? I don't know why you'd think that I don't know what's going on here. This was basically a *generic* observation regardless. tcl/tk changes the DLL name with every release. I find that strange. Regardless, it's very obvious that, setup comments notwithstanding, tk is used by python. I don't like breaking python every time I release a new version of tcl/tk since I don't like making work for Jason. I guess that, somehow, Jason has found a chink in my otherwise mean demeanor. cgf -- Please use the resources at cygwin.com rather than sending personal email.

There was an announcement of a new release on Tuesday: http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin-announce/2003-01/msg00024.html and Charles Wilson mentioned it in the thread that *you* started: http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2003-01/msg01690.html I guess I am still a bit upset, that the tcl/tk from setup no longer does what I need it to do. For the record, I don't recall that you ever described precisely what your issue was with tclsh. When I ran it, I noticed an obvious error which may have been what you were experiencing. Coincidentially enough, I'd been plannnig on releasing a new version of tcl/tk since 8.4.1 was introduced, so a new release showed up *the day after* you started complaining. tclsh84 does not have the obvious error. It's strange that you are still complaining about this rather than either reporting bugs with the new version (in the correct place, of course) or (hopefully) noticing that everything works now. cgf -- Please use the resources at cygwin.com rather than sending personal email.

I upgraded to it, and a tcl script I had that uses the tcl package http stopped working. I looked at the comment, and figured since I was not gdb, there was no use complaining that it did not work. So, should the comment be changed? I had removed the 'gdb only' words from the setup hint earlier. Is this a full tcl/tk meant to run any standard tcl/tk script? This version of tcl/tk should be fully functional. If so, I would like to report that the http package is missing. I've been informed privately that http is available in the release that I provided. If you have specific problems, you'll have to provide specific bug reports. Assuming that you are finally using tcl 8.4.1, please provide the error that you're getting wrt the http package. If you aren't using 8.4.1 (and why wouldn't you be by now?) then upgrade. cgf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
