This is a version problem.

If you just start with Python etc you should get/have the following version:

Python 2.5.1
wxPython 2.8.4 Unicode or Ansi
Boa 0.5.2 from CVS

It is reading the first line in the users "prefs.rc.py" file which on my 
machine (Win) is in "C:\Users\myuserid\.boa-constructor", I don't know 
were a Mac keeps it user specific stuff.

The first line should look like:

## rc-version: 18 ##

What does yours show in the first line?

The easy fix is probably just to rename the .boa-constructor folder and 
it will be rebuild.

If it happens again then we need to try to determine what is really 
going wrong, i.e. what configuration settings are you changing .....

See you

[Boa Constr] Mac OSX 10.4 Startup error

[Dave G. Ph.D. <da...@oh...>]

Hi

I'm a relatively new python user (neat stuff) and want to try out boa  
constructor.  I'm running on an Intel MacBook Pro and installed a new  
version of python:

$ python
Python 2.5 (r25:51918, Sep 19 2006, 08:49:13)
[GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 5341)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
 >>>

and have wxPython (2.8.4.0) installed.  I downloaded boa from the CVS  
repository last night, and fired it up.  It worked OK the first time  
and I walked thru some of the tutorial.  This morning I tried to  
start it again and received the following error:

$ python boa.py
Starting Boa Constructor v0.5.2
importing wxPython
reading user preferences
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "boa.py", line 271, in <module>
     import Preferences, Utils
   File "/Applications/boa/Preferences.py", line 120, in <module>
     rcver = int(verline[14:-2])

Seems its not catching the first '\r'  Any hints?

I am just trying to find out were the bad instructions are as this 
question is coming up on a regular bases.  That would surprise me that 
Riaan fixed it that quickly :).  I'll have another look to see if there 
is a bad one somewhere.

There seems to be some issue with gmane, as it shows instead of 
"pserver:anony...@public..." it shows 
"pserver:anony...somesequenceofchars@public..."

I pulled it from the boa web page - the same day I posted the message

Since then, I had emailed the boa maintainer. They must have finally
changed the bad URL

This wasn't on the boa page when I installed it. Someone else had
emailed it to me after my post.

Hi,

Now it is working somewhat, I have more free hours to roam the net and 
found that I better had done a download from CVS for the same result and 
saved me the hassle.

Re: [Boa Constr] Bicyclerepairman needs a repair!

[F.A. P. <f_...@ly...>]

Hi Tim, Werner,


I did the repeat test and got the same results.
So here is what I did.


Removed from site packages:
Folder: bike
Files: All starting will Bicycle... and bike...

Download from sourceforge the version 0.9 of BicycleRepairMan

 From the folder where you expanded the download.
Edit File: \ide-intergation\BicycleRepairMan_Idle.py
---This is what has the wrong indentation and garbage:

    def confirm_buffer_is_saved(self, editwin):
        if not editwin.get_saved():
            name = (editwin.short_title()or
            editwin.long_title()or
            "Untitled")
            reply = tkMessageBox.askokcancel("Bicycle Repair Man",
                "The buffer for %s is not saved.\n\n"%name+
                "Save it and continue?",
                master = self.editwin.text)
          &nbs p; self.editwin.text.focus_set()
            if reply:
                editwin.io.save(None)
            else:
                return 0
        return 1

I used Python IDLE to do this while Boa/Editor complained about my 
unicode install.

 From the above you also have to remove this:  &nbs p;
I aligned self.editwin.focus_set() with reply.
Now the above section looks like this:


     def confirm_buffer_is_saved(self, editwin):
         if not editwin.get_saved():
             name = (editwin.short_title()or
             editwin.long_title()or
             "Untitled")
             reply = tkMessageBox.askokcancel("Bicycle Repair Man",
                 "The buffer for %s is not saved.\n\n"%name+
                 "Save it and continue?",
                 master = self.editwin.text)
             self.editwin.text.focus_set()
             if reply:
                 editwin.io.save(None)
             else:
                 return 0
         return 1


save the editted file.

 From the folder remove the file:
bike/query/getPackageDependencies.py
You may look at it first, I found it not very repairable.

Return to Boa
 From the expanded downlaod folder load the file
setup.py
Run: File/setup install

Restart Boa.

Now it should work.
It did for me, but... on BRM Definition it sometimes it crashed Python 
or it found a syntax error or the wrong definition
It found dlg.GetPath() with only GetPath selected, but crashedon
parents.getParentsList() with only getParentsList selected.
It did find parents.getParentsList select in total.
Sorry, I forgot to note the occasion the syntax error.
It found something totally unrelated with Family.select() with only
select selected.
Do I have exclusive rights on these errors? Could the removal of 
getDependencies.py explain all of the above?

File/setup install does copy a lot from downloaded files and folders 
into a new created folder, in the same folder the setup.py resides, 
named build.
Once this folder is present it stops doing that, so changing downloaded 
files once this folder is present has no effect. To do that just delete 
it, it is save to do that while it is not part of the download.

The same holds for the destination of the files in 
Python25\lib\site-packages. Once there they are not 'replaced'
Python25 is where I installed Python,wxPython and Boa.

I thought setup clean would remove this build folder, it seems to do 
something while I heard the disk rattle a while.

I hope this helps.

I posted on bicyclerepair-general list at SF and mailed to the project 
admin.

what can we do more?

Frans.

Re: [Boa Constr] Bicyclerepairman needs a repair!

[F.A. P. <f_...@ly...>]

Hi Tim,Werner.



I have it working now.

After searching at Google I found a posting which said he had it going 
after repairing an indentation error in BicycleRepairMan_Idle.py and 
deleting some 'other' stuff.
This indentation error I got that too with the official release 0.9
So I went for it and forget about the NIghtly Build, whicch might be not 
such a good idea after all.

I found the ' source' of ...Idle.py , but Boa/Editor could not edit it, 
because of some coding, unocode.
I used Python IDLE which had not problem at all.
In the same section of the indent error there is this   &nbsp p;  bit, 
which I removed completely. I also took a peek at the nightly Build 
version, which was clean.

I ran the setup install and after one more error and some time I found 
that you have to remove the folder 'build' and the the stuff that is 
delivered in Python25 folder to get the 'fresh' stuff and finally yo 
have to reload Boa too!!!!!

I did test the
BRM definition and it gave an answer.
BRN Rename and it did rename what was needed.

These two were sufficient for me for now.

To be sure I will repeat this procedure to morrow, for to day I have 
done enough.

If this is successful I will publish the steps, with, what, where, how 
and why.

Re: [Boa Constr] Bicyclerepairman needs a repair!

[F.A. P. <f_...@ly...>]

HI Tim, Werner,


Nothing works!

I uninstalled all previous Python, cleaned the Registry form any link to 
them
Cleaned System Vars.
Reboot.

Reinstalled only these: Python 2.5, wxPython 2.8, Boa and 
BicycleRepairMan. [ version 0.9.2 from Nightly Build ] at C:\Python25\

Same Errors.

What seems usefull todo to get it working.

Were did you get the above from?  I don't see an outdated link on the 
Installation.html, it shows it like:

cvs -d:pserver:ano...@cv...:/cvsroot/boa-constructor login

Which I think is correct.

Alternative instructions using TortoiseCVS can be found here:

I see that Tim responded too, so I hope you got sorted out in the mean time.

I assume you got that date from the download page on sourceforge?  They 
are showing wrong dates.

Riaan is a bit pessimistic with Alpha stage, one could easily call it 
beta or maybe even release candidate:).

There was talk on the wxPython list to create the ultimate Python IDE 
(probably about a year ago) but I haven't seen anything announced.

While Boa is not perfect I feel it is the most complete IDE for 
wxPython.  If one does not want as much there are others, check out the 
wiki page for wxPython.

Re: [Boa Constr] Bicyclerepairman needs a repair!

[F.A. P. <f_...@ly...>]

Hi Tim,


Exactly what I did.

But on
# Python 2.5.1 (r251:54863, Apr 18 2007, 08:51:08) [MSC v.1310 32 bit 
(Intel)]
# wxPython 2.8.3.0, Boa Constructor 0.5.2
I use unicode.

Bicyclerepairman 0.9.2 [ downloaded from nightly build ]
$Id: BicycleRepairMan.plug-in.py,v 1.8 2006/10/12 12:11:42 riaan Exp $

The BRM-Find references does reports

The BRM-Find definition stops with the error:
on line 214 in Bicyclerepairman.plug-in.py, match=defs.next(),
Attribute error: Non type has no attribute 'next'

All others stops with error:
Facade instance has no attribute brmctx


The object defs is made like this      defs=ctx...
So I think all the above errors are basically the same.

Any suggestion?
1) trying ASCII

I did try to use Python24 but the whole installation got damaged 
somehow, Boa and Python did not start. Probably my doing of something.

Boa 0.5.2 works very well for me!  Try it out from CVS.  Riaan updates
it occasionally & welcomes user-submitted patches.

For your reference, BicycleRepairMan is working fine on my system with:

# wxPython 2.8.3.0, Boa Constructor 0.5.2
bike version 0.9
Windows XP Home

Steps to use it:

- Install Boa
- Install BicycleRepairMan (from SourceForge)
- Enable BicycleRepairMan in Boa settings
- Restart Boa
- select a variable, right-click, select any of the BRM ... options

[Boa Constr] New to boa

[Tony C. <cap...@gm...>]

I'm just using boa for the first time.

I've noticed that it hasn't been updated since 2005. It's pretty
disappointing to see it is still in alpha stage. Is there not much
demand for further development, or just not enough time for the
developers to work on the project?

Is there a replacement for boa?

Re: [Boa Constr] Bicyclerepairman needs a repair!

[F.A. P. <f_...@ly...>]

Hello Werner,

Yes, same for me.
I used it sometime ago for a short period.
Then I got other things to do.
But now I am back with Python.
Installed all the new releases.
Had to relearn a lot of little things.

Just this morning I installed the Repairman and just assumed all was 
well. After reading your reply and writing the download install cycle I 
went testing it and..... found it did not work on all fronts.

So... a quest have to be put up, because I need the renaming stuff of 
it. [ too many silly named attributes,controls and frames.

BRM-Find reference seems to work, at least it reports correctly

All ather functions are reporting an error.

Before diving into a lot of searching and reading I fire up the old 
Python24 and see if it sill works there.

Keep you posted.

Frans.
