1.4.5 modules must be recompiled to work on 1.9.x. Renaming them to kf_... will not make them work.

This is no longer the case, since there's now the new officially signed high capability scriptshell package available. No Open Signed hassle needed!

The packaging tool already supports several alternatives for the launcher exe. The only missing bit is that it's not possible to add more of those as easily as you can add modules to the repo.

No need to convert to list either. You can compare directly:


if e32.pys60_version_info > (1,9):

Beautiful, eh? :)

The module repository is already extensible. I'm wondering how much effort it would be to add support for arbitrary third party supplied application shells...

Whoo, looks very cool. Love the subtle launcher transitions.

Maybe we could even add pygame mode as a packaging option into a future release of our packaging tool. That way you could simply write...

Hey guys, it's easier than you think. Just use the pre-split form of the version: e32.pys60_version_info. Quoting the friendly manual:

No, install the latest version, Python_1.9.4.sis.

We'll be looking into this matter. It is definitely our goal to have Python as a supported language for Ovi Store.

Yes, it's magic :)

Well then, good news: it is there already in 1.9.4!

Sounds like you have "import lib1.py" in your script when you should have "import lib1"...

Note that 1.9.3 and 1.9.4 are NOT binary compatible for reasons that have nothing to do with the UID change.

The Big Idea (tm) with the module repo is to parallelize this kind of thing by making it easy for extension module developers to distribute their modules and for application developers to use those...

The correct way to package PyGame for the 1.9.4 is to make a ZIP that users can unpack into the module repository directory. That ZIP should contain PyGame's .pyd's and .py's as well as the...

IIRC default.py is a special case and must be a .py file, not .pyc. Other ones you can have as .pyc.

There's a binary compatibility break between 1.9.3 and 1.9.4. The pygame library needs to be recompiled and repackaged to work with 1.9.4.

Yes. One of the biggest improvements in 1.9.x/2.0.x series is the module repository support which makes it easy for application developers to use third party modules in their applications.

Please,...

The binary break was an unavoidable consequence of upgrading the core version. Python core versions aren't binary compatible across major releases.

Scriptext won't be backported, but note that you can install the 5th ed scriptshell package onto 3rd ed platforms as well, and that has the Location capability.

Existing 1.4.x modules need to be...

Maybe the default heap size should be increased? It seems to be a frequent problem.

The reason for this is probably the fact that the embedded package "Platform Service Extensions" has been signed only with the "Nokia Online CA" certificate, and this certificate isn't present on...

The short version: instead of "import socket" do "import btsocket as socket". Leave the rest of the code as-is.

I guess the filesystem order has changed. We can just sort the list inside the script shell before showing it.

Hey, please, please, pretty please: If you find a replicatable crash or error, file a bug report in the bug tracker! That's the only way they will get fixed.
