here's the code from my pickling:
#dict of arrays of datetime objects
export1 = {'gagetime':gagednt2ar,'gagetime_offset':gagednt2_offsetar,
'tektime_lagb':mdntmar,'tektime':mdntzar,'tektime_lagf':mdntpar}
#dict of arrays of built-in objects
datamat = {'az':azrowfar,'el':elrowfar,'tekrange_lagb':mtmt,
'tekrange':mtzt,'tekrange_lagf':mtpt,'teksig_lagb':mvmt,
'teksig':mvzt,'teksig_lagf':mvpt,'gagerange':gagerange,
'gagesig':gagesig}
time_out = open('tsm2_outa','w')
cPickle.dump(export1,time_out)
time_out.close()
data_out = open('tsm2_outb','wb')
cPickle.dump(datamat,data_out,1)
data_out.close()
-- So, you can see that the first dict is pickled in ascii (those
arrays are pretty small), but the second dict (the one that i have no
problem unpickling) is pickled in binary. However, I have tried both
ascii and binary for the frist dict, but both crash the IDLE. I don't
understand how pickling works with non built-in objects--is it necessary
for me to tell it that I have datetime objects and how do i do that?
Or perhaps there's something entirely different happening?
much obliged, Ming
