Dear list, I have been trying to compile wxPython Phoenix (https://github.com/wxWidgets/Phoenix) from source on Windows 10 64 bit, Python 2.7 64 bit, using the very handy Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler for Python 2.7 (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=44266).
I started with Python 2.7.8, then wiped out that installation and used Python 2.7.11: cleaned the build directory, everything, and rebuilt the Phoenix modules from scratch. Upon starting the Phoenix demo, I got the same error message I had with Python 2.7.8: D:\MyProjects\Phoenix\demo>python Main.py <type 'str'> Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\wxPhoenix\wx\core.py", line 1955, in Notify self.notify() File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\wxPhoenix\wx\core.py", line 3034, in Notify self.result = self.callable(*self.args, **self.kwargs) File "Main.py", line 2601, in ShowMain frame = wxPythonDemo(None, "wxPython: (A Demonstration)") File "Main.py", line 1531, in __init__ self.SetOverview(self.overviewText, mainOverview) File "Main.py", line 2130, in SetOverview self.nb.SetPageText(0, os.path.split(name)[1]) SystemError: ..\Objects\longobject.c:998: bad argument to internal function The error message refers (apparently) to this Python bug: https://bugs.python.org/issue23842 But I assumed that it had been fixed waaaaay before 2.7.11. Now I am stuck and I have no idea on what to try next. Does anyone have suggestions/comments on where I should look for/what I should do/what I should change in order to get the extension running on Python 2.7? Thank you in advance for your suggestions :-) . Andrea. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
