debugging - converting PyObject back to a variable name
hi, I'm currently debugging a crash occurring in the Python interpreter. I've got a Dictionary object in the form of a (PyObject *) I can cast it to (dictobject *) in the debugger watch window, and I can also use PyString_AsString(PyObject_Repr()) to get the debugger to print out a string representation of the dictionary (actually I can't - this also crashes, because one of the values in the dictionary has become corrupted) What I'm trying to do is relate this dictionary object back to a variable name in my application source code (i.e. written in Python) - I've been searching round the web for an easy way of doing this - hopefully some function I can type into the debugger's watch window. thanks alot for the help adam -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

I have two kids who aren't yet old enough to read properly (although they've made a start) but I want to get some basic docs ready for when they're ready to start. I've looked around at other docs, but I don't think that they are great for ordinary kids of this age (but I'm sure some will get something out of it). The docs I want to produce will run in small chunks but with quick resultsi, heavy on screenshots (where applicable) and have a younger look and feel about them than some of the official documents. All the documents should also be supported by face-to-face interaction (like a day programming with dad!) I notice that your documents are specific to gui creation and glade, and I'm not sure how old your brother is, but do you want to collaborate on this? Anyone else think this might be worth while distributing?

Once I had an experience working with CPAN (I tried to install SpamAssassin and it required some specific modules.) Magic install shell, provided by Perl, upgraded half the Perl distro, including newer version of Perl! So, I do like Python distutils better. it is not a major problem to install something even if it required something else. Of course, this depends on the package authors. But distutils don't help the problem that the module requires stuff that's missing. That's what happened with the thing I downloaded last week, that needed wxPython. I don't understand why the author felt he had to use wxPython instead of tkinter, since it wasn't a really fancy gui, but after already-described hassles trying to instead wxPython, I just used the application's command line interface instead, which worked fine. But if wxPython is so much better, maybe it's time for Python to include it. I want to start using Audacity pretty soon, which I think really does depend on wxPython, so I'm going to have to deal with this wxPython installation problem which is definitely not completely trivial. What a pain. I've not experienced problems installing wxPython on Debian (unstable). It just *works* out of the box with apt-get. Perhaps this is more of a problem with the package maintainers?
