Hi, I have a problem with Python2.4 and win32com extensions, from Mark Hammond's win32all package... I posted a few days back about a crash when compiling files generated by win32com's 'makepy.py' utility.
Now these generated files, which are fine in Python 2.3.5, give a syntax error on compile. I posted a somewhat longer message on the python-dev mailing list but since I'm not subscribe the message is awaiting moderator approval, and I wanted to notify you of this problem ASAP. The specific syntax errors are: File "D:\Python24\lib\site-packages\win32com\gen_py\00020813-0000-0000-C000-000000000046x0x1x3.py", line 2591 return ret ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax File "D:\Python24\lib\site-packages\win32com\gen_py\00020905-0000-0000-C000-000000000046x0x8x1.py", line 3025 "StyleName": (3, 2, (8, 0), (), "StyleName", None), "Value": (0, 2, (8, 0), (), "Value", None), ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax Eyeballing the files around these locations, I cannot detect any syntax errors. And as I mentioned above, the exact same file compiles just fine under Python2.3.5. (And crashes the 2.4.0 interpreter) regards, --Tim -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
