I'll be experimenting with pyCurl now.
By replacing the GetThumbnail method with this brainless example, taken
from the pyCurl demo:
def GetThumbnail(self,imgurl):
class Test:
def __init__(self):
self.contents = ''
def body_callback(self, buf):
self.contents = self.contents + buf
self.Log("#1: "+repr(imgurl))
try:
t = Test()
c = pycurl.Curl()
c.setopt(c.URL, imgurl)
c.setopt(c.WRITEFUNCTION, t.body_callback)
self.Log("#2")
c.perform()
self.Log("#3")
c.close()
self.Log("#4")
fpath = os.path.join(os.environ["TEMP"],"thumbnail.jpg")
fout = open(fpath,"wb+")
self.Log("#5: "+repr(fpath))
try:
fout.write(t.contents)
finally:
fout.close()
self.Log("#6")
except:
self.Log(traceback.format_exc())
return
self.Log("#7")
wx.CallAfter(self.imgProduct.SetPage,"""<html><body><img
src="%s"></body></html>"""%fpath)
self.Log("#8")
Everything works perfectly, in all modes: console, no console, started
directly and started in separate thread.
So the problem with urllib must be. Maybe wxPython installs some except
hooks, or who knows? If somebody feels up to it, I can start narrowing
down the problem to the smallest possible application. But only if
someone knows how to debug core code because I don't. Otherwise I'll
just use pyCURL.
Thank you for your help!
