[Pyobjc-dev] using objc.inject

[Daniel A. <an...@cc...>]

Re: "does anyone use objc.inject" from a few months ago, I think I  
would like to. I'm hoping to get at the internals of a program and  
extract some hard-to-get-at information. However, trying the  
InjectInterpreter example code doesn't seem to work, so any hints  
would be appreciated. Doing:

   sudo python test.py 71755

(where 7155 is the pid of TextEdit) returns without comment, but  
prints to the system log:

TextEdit[71755]: InjectInterpreterPlugin has encountered a fatal  
error, and will now terminate.
TextEdit[71755]: An uncaught exception was raised during execution of  
the main script:^M^MSystemError: NULL result without error in  
PyObject_Call^M^MThis may mean that an unexpected error has occurred,  
or that you do not have all of the dependencies for this bundle.

Any hints?

Thanks,
