I may have managed to track down the problem. Please download http://www4.ncsu.edu/~jdbrandm/vpython-4.beta0-patch.zip It contains libintl.dll and libiconv.dll. Extract both of these to C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\ gtkrun\bin\, and then try to run some VPython program. If this either works or doesn't work for you, please let me know. Thanks, -Jonathan Brandmeyer |

This error is very different from the other one. Unfortunately, it appears that I may need to crank out a separate build for Win 98/ME/NT4, as documented here: http://www.gimp.org/~tml/gimp/win32/downloads.html (see the note about Cairo farther down the page). It will probably take me a couple of days to build up a Gtk+ 2.6-based dev environment, but one will be coming down the pipe (probably in the 4.beta2 release, as 4.beta1 is almost ready now). -Jonathan |

I note that the files in the zip are called intl.dll and iconv.dll, not libintl.dll and libiconv.dll. I copied and renamed the files so that I have the files under both names in c:\Python24\Lib\site-packages, but the result is the same FYI: I am on a Thinkpad. Very rarely, but not never, I have a conflict with the IBM installed python. The problem arises because IBM chose to set PYTHONCASEOK causing confusion if modules have capital letter names. I unset it, but very occasionally the system detects the change and resets it. Very annoying and easy to forget about. Bit me twice. I mention this because if you are not on a Thinkpad, you will never find this problem. On the face of it, I don't see that this little feature applies in this case. -gary > > >_______________________________________________ >Visualpython-users mailing list >Vis...@li... >https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/visualpython-users > > > |

Hurray! Works for me. Regarding a note from Gary Pajer: Yes, the zip file contains iconv.dll and intl.dll, not libintl.dll nor libiconv.dll. I copied the files directly from the zip file, leaving the names as iconv.dll and intl.dll (and overwriting the old files with those names), and now everything works on my XP machine. Congratulations, Jonathan. This is a huge step forward. Bruce Jonathan Brandmeyer wrote: > I may have managed to track down the problem.

I misspoke - intl.dll and iconv.dll are their proper names; no renaming is needed. -Jonathan |
