I received no responses yesterday, this is a repost. I'm still stuck on
this one ladies and gentlemen, and I'm sure it's one of those simple
things (isn't it always?)
I am creating a small test application in Windows to test the embedding
of the interpreter in order to execute arbitrary Python statements and
print their results, all via a dialog application.
Strings are sent to the interpreter via:
PyRun_String(CString(*pbstrInput), Py_file_input, _d, _d);
Where _d is my global dictionary.
I would like to capture the output, so I created a small class to extend
Python:
PyRun_String("class OutputCatcher:\n"
"\tdef __init__(self):\n"
"\t\tself.data=''\n"
"\tdef write(self, stuff):\n"
"\t\tself.data = stuff\n\n"
"import sys\n"
"_outcatcher = OutputCatcher()\n"
"sys.stdout = _outcatcher\n",
Py_file_input, _d, _d);
Using this class, I thought I could access "_outcatcher.data" to get the
last thing written to sys.stdout, and this does seem to work using the
following code:
PyObject* o = PyDict_GetItemString(_d, "_outcatcher");
PyObject* a = PyObject_GetAttrString(o, "data");
::MessageBox(NULL, PyString_AsString(a), _T(""), NULL);
However, it only works twice. On the third try, I get an access
violation trying to access the stdout object (for a print statement).
The pointer appears to be valid, but all of the data has overwritten
with 0xDBDBDBDB, with obvious consequences.
Thanks for your help in advance.
