| ikt | heya, say you are coding a program in python 3.1, in ubuntu if you do ./python3program.py it will automatically run as python2.7, is there anyway to change in the program itself to tell ubuntu to run as python 3.1? | 11:12 |
|---|---|---|
| nisshh | ikt, on the command line, instead of ./application.py, use: python3.1 application.py | 11:18 |
| nisshh | that will interpret the app using 3.1 | 11:18 |
| ikt | yeah I don't want that | 11:18 |
| ikt | for example if I put it onto another computer | 11:18 |
| ikt | and do ./ | 11:18 |
| ikt | I want it to come out as an error, python3 not installed, not get halfway through the app and then crash :S | 11:18 |
| nisshh | oh ok | 11:19 |
| ikt | I can't find much on it :( | 11:19 |
| nisshh | well unfortunately, what happens is that it will run the app and then exit with a crash when it hits a wall because it cant find 3.1 | 11:19 |
| nisshh | you could include a check in your code to check for a specific version of python | 11:20 |
| nisshh | ikt, ^^^ | 11:20 |
| nisshh | i cant remember how to do it exactly, gimme a minute | 11:21 |
| nisshh | ikt, ah, yes, i remember now, its very easy | 11:22 |
| ikt | ^_^ | 11:25 |
| nisshh | ikt, gimme a sec | 11:27 |
| nisshh | ikt, this will throw an error if called when the default version of python is < 3.1: http://paste.ubuntu.com/572588/ | 11:34 |
| nisshh | it will work fine if called with 3.1 though | 11:35 |
| ikt | ah sweet cheers :D | 11:35 |
| nisshh | np | 11:35 |
| nisshh | ikt, next time come to: ##general-programming | 11:36 |
| nisshh | its a little more on topic :) | 11:36 |
| ikt | oh yea | 11:36 |
