OK, I have consumed several early evening cocktails to prepare myself for the embarrassment that must attend asking a question like this. Here goes. Please consider the following script: import sys sys . path . insert ( 1, r"H:\Webware" ) #~ import WebKit . OneShotAdapter import WebKit . Object print 'IMPORT SUCCEEDED' Obviously I have been playing with WebWare in an effort to get my head around it. If I run this script just as it appears here I am unsurprised to see the output from the 'print' statement. However, if I remove the '#~' from that one line of the script and place it at the beginning of the next line I do _not_ see the 'print' statement output. What say you?

I can certainly understand your confusion. It looks like OneShotAdapter.py redirects stdout immediately to a StringIO object as soon as it's imported. Also, there's a comment to the effect that "maybe this isn't the right thing to do" :-) OneShotAdapter is really only intended for use by OneShot.cgi -- did you have another use in mind, or were you just playing around? - Geoff |

Without that setting, you can't see stdout which may include some important debugging print stmts as well as the app server startup messages. Other than the confusion Bill stumbled upon, I don't think it causes any other problems. If we didn't redirect it at the top, we'd so later on. Doing so at the top captures as much output as possible. -Chuck |
