GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 314483
IOChannel creation fails in Python 2.4 on win32
Last modified: 2006-07-07 03:04:38 UTC
Creating an IOChannel under Python 2.4 on win32 doesn't work because pygtk uses a different C runtime dll than glib uses. It also fails in the debug build under Python 2.3 because the debug runtime is different than the release runtime. This is probably something that needs to be fixed in glib; see bug 314482
Simple test to reproduce: import sys f = open(sys.argv[0], 'r') import gobject io = gobject.IOChannel(f.fileno())
Maybe this is merely a build problem, not a source problem? IMHO, bugzilla should not be used for binary distribution problems, because none of the pygtk developers actually do binary distributions, so who would fix these problems?
This is either a glib bug or a build problem, is it okay to close this one John?
