Ok, the first thing I needed to do was add:
from __future__ import with_statement at the beginning of my file
but:
with zip_file.open(zip_name + '/' + thumbnail_image) as source:
with open(os.path.join(thumbnail_path,
thumbnail_image), 'wb') as target:
shutil.copyfileobj(source, target)
Returns an error on the first line:
ZipExtFile instance has no attribute '__exit__'
Googling this error message is turning up nothing, and there's no
mention of the exception in the docs. Any thoughts?
TIA,
Brandon
