Python Launcher Pops Up When Py-based App Is Running
by James Greenham Oct. 9, 2023

Oct. 9, 2023

Hello, I run macOS Mojave with Python 2.7. I have an old Dashboard widget (last modified in 2009) that appears to use Python as well. The widget captures the full Safari web-page. It works seamlessly on earlier macOS systems but hangs in 10.14. The widget's core functions constitute code of the script that I'm pasting in this message. The problem is that as soon as the execution reaches the image processing stage it gets stuck which manifests by Python Launcher popping up in Dock and is trying forever until I quit the launcher that force-quits the widget showing the error icon. The issue seems to originate in the doGrab handler (module or whatever the correct Python term fits the definition) immediately following the print "Processing Image..." line: it's the message the widget displays at getting stalled. I( checked that Python 2.7 is installed in the default location at /usr/bin. However, I have the binaries idle3, idle3.10, pip3, pip3.10 in /usr/local/bin. Is that remedied? The script's environment set to python, i.e. to python 2.7 so that shouldn't be the encumbrance. Am I correct? #!/usr/bin/env python # -*- coding: utf-8 -*- # OR: # coding=utf-8 __version__ = "0.6" # # Based on Paul Hammond's webkit2png script - make screenshots of webpages # http://www.paulhammond.org/webkit2png # # Modified by Paulo Avila for the Page Capture widget # # The original source code (v0.5) belongs to Paul Hammond (see notice below). # Any and all code added after is Copyright (c) 2009 Paulo Avila. # # Modification Log by Paul Avila # # 2009.04.21 - Changed almost all the output messages in order to behave properly with my Page Capture widget # 2009.04.21 - Added function headers # 2009.04.21 - Properly flush the output buffers so that messages display immediately # 2009.04.21 - Changed encoding of this file to UTF-8 # 2009.04.25 - Updated how files are named: "<domain> > <file>.png" # 2009.04.25 - Files are now named with the full URL excluding protocol (http://) and arguments (...?*) # # Copyright (c) 2009 Paul Hammond # # Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy # of this software and associated documentation files (the "Software"), to deal # in the Software without restriction, including without limitation the rights # to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell # copies of the Software, and to permit persons to whom the Software is # furnished to do so, subject to the following conditions: # # The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in # all copies or substantial portions of the Software. # # THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR # IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, # FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NONINFRINGEMENT.

[ANN] PyObjC 10.0 released
by Ronald Oussoren Sept. 24, 2023

Sept. 24, 2023

Hi, I’ve tagged PyObjC 10.0 and am in the process of uploading to PyPI. The major change in this version is support for macOS Sonoma, just in time for the release of that version of macOS. Some other changes: * The lazy loading machinery no longer uses “objc.ObjCLazyModule” * Python 3.7 is no longer supported * objc.simd was restructured, hopefully without impact on user code See the full changelog of https://pyobjc.readthedocs.io/en/latest/changelog.html for a detailed list of changes.
