Failure with Python-2.6.4 / wxpython-2.8.10.1

Helmut Jarausch — Fri, 19 Feb 2010 11:56:48 -0000

I get the following error messages / warnings

dirssync_gui.py:4: DeprecationWarning: The wxPython compatibility package is no longer automatically generated or actively maintained. Please switch to the wx package as soon as possible

Is there any fix around?

Not working with Pythong 2.4 and wxPython2.5.4.1?

Malte Finsterwalder — Sun, 20 Mar 2005 16:36:45 -0000

Hi there,

I don't know anything about Python.
I downloaded Python-2.4.msi and
wxPython2.5-win32-unicode-2.5.4.1-py24.exe
Installed both and that seamed to have worked.
When I try to start DirSync by calling run.py I get the
following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Programme\DirsSync-2.1rc2\run.py", line 15, in ?

TypeError: wxWindow, wxSizer, wxSize, or (w,h) expected

Is something wrong with the file dates?

The file dates and one of the bug's date is way out in
the future. Are you ahead of the world? :-)

Setting application icon not working

Anonymous — Tue, 15 Feb 2005 02:34:53 -0000

Version: 2.1rc2

The way the main frame sets up the application icon
(i.e., using wxIcon to load the image in
__set_properties() of class MyFrame()) does not work on
Windows. A working way would be something like the
following:
icon = wxEmptyIcon()
icon.CopyFromBitmap( wxBitmapFromImage(
wxImage( "DirsSync_ico.png", wxBITMAP_TYPE_PNG)))
self.SetIcon(icon)

The image has to be 32x32 of any format wxWindows can load.

Deleting the job in edit mode will prevent new jobs from add

Anonymous — Tue, 15 Feb 2005 02:28:53 -0000

Version: 2.1rc2

Deleting the job in the edit mode will prevent new jobs
from being added properly.

If you have only one job in the list, you edit it, and
you decide to delete. You would get the following error
message. No jobs can ce added anymore.
---------Error message-------
C:/Program Files/Python24/pythonw.exe -u "C:/Program
Files/Python24/Dirssync/2_1rc2/run.pyw"
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Program
Files\Python24\Dirssync\2_1rc2\dirssync_gui.py", line
566, in OnAddJob

self.jobslist[x]=dirssync.Job(dirlocal,dirremote,options)
IndexError: list assignment index out of range
-----------

If you have more than one jobs in the list, you edit
one of them and decide to delete it. When you hit the
Add button, the job of the same index as the the one
being edited+deleted before will be overwritten by the
new one.

A quick fix can be done by adding the following line to
line 646 (OnDeleteJob() of class MyFrame()) of
dirssync_gui.py:
self.jobedited=None

The OnDeleteJob() would look like:
def OnDeleteJob(self,event):
if self.jobedited!=None:
dlgW = wxMessageDialog(self, "You will
looze the current Job card edited. Do you want to
continue ?", "Warning", wxYES | wxNO | wxICON_EXCLAMATION)
if dlgW.ShowModal()!=wxID_YES:
dlgW.Destroy()
return
dlgW.Destroy()
selection=self.LCJobs.currentItemSelected
self.LCJobs.DeleteItem(selection)
self.jobslist.pop(int(selection))
self.jobedited=None ###Add this line
if self.LCJobs.GetItemCount()==0:
self.BNext.Enable(0)

V2.1rc2 does not start properly

Anonymous — Mon, 14 Feb 2005 22:49:28 -0000

Running run.py of the 2.1rc2 has created the following
error. It seems to be a bad calling syntax to the
wxSizer.Add() on line 289 of dirssync_gui.py. Once this
line is commented out, the program can start without
any problem.

Thanks,
Hung-chi Lihn.

No error shown if directory is e.g. not mapped

Werner F. Bruhin — Sat, 31 Jul 2004 09:35:24 -0000

version 2rc3

Testing the problem with the listctrl I noticed that if
e.g. the local directory is not available (in my case
the network connection was not up) I did not get an error.

When I pressed "Next" it tried to find out what to
synchronize but did not find anything.

I think a warning error should be given if either the
remote or local directory (at least top level) are not
available.

Input tab - listctrl incomplet info

Werner F. Bruhin — Fri, 09 Jul 2004 08:47:45 -0000

Version 2rc2

The listctrl listing jobs on the input tab does NOT
show the data for the last four columns, i.e. if one
selects the check box "Remote to locale" then the
correponding column should show something e.g. "Yes" or
a tick.

Version 2 is bugged

Mark Carter — Wed, 18 Feb 2004 12:21:33 -0000

Unfortunately, it appears that version 2 of DirsSync has
some bugs in it. I haven't done any thorough testing,
but it does not respect on-way transferring, for
example. There may be other bugs.

Also, when DirsSync is started on Windows XP, the top
left hand corner appears about 25% down and to the
right of the top left hand corner of the screen. So it has
to be repositioned every time that I want to use it.

Failure to create dir in remote job

Mark Carter — Wed, 07 Jan 2004 10:28:19 -0000

If a directory is specified in Remote inputs, but doesn't
exist, then Dirssync doesn't create it; even though it
should.

To reproduce the bug, run the following code:

import dirssync
import dstest
from dirssync import *

log = BasicLog()
log.quiet = True
ForceRemoveDir("remote", log)
ForceRemoveDir("local", log)
os.makedirs("remote/dir")
os.makedirs("local")
listdirs = {}
listdirs[0] = ('remote/dir', 'local/dir')
t = transfer()
t.log = log
actions = t.analyse(listdirs)
SyncList(actions, t.log, t.options)
assert(exists("local/dir"))

--end

Update() should probably add the remote directory to its
list of actions if it doesn't exist.
