Between major versions, the bytecode can change. There were in fact some significant changes between 2.3 and 2.4. Tim Delaney -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

We'll see if this could be fixed. I try to foster some "movement" in Python/400 (I love this name, please, dont call it iSeries Python!) community in the hope to put more life in this port.

No, it is not platform dependent, but it is version dependent. Best, Laci 2.0 mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] web:http://designasign.biz -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

byte code generated under linux ==> bad magic number under windows
Hi, I understand from my reading that a .pyc generated by python anywhere should run anywhere else - is that true ? If I generate 'compile.all' a pyc with python 2.3.3 under Linux, I get a 'bad magic number' trying to execute it under windows (2.4). What am I doing wrong ? are the pyc plateform dependant ? and if so must I generate one version for each version of Linux, windows .. ? Regards, Philippe -- * Philippe C.
