Problem with McMillans Installer

[=?ISO-8859-1?Q?Mikael_Lex=E9n?=]

Hi

I have the following code

fileName="test.txt"
inputFile=file(fileName,'r')
b = unicode(inputFile.read(), 'utf-8')
inputFile.close()

outputFile=file(fileName,'w')

print >> outputFile, b.encode('iso-8859-1')

outputFile.close()

This code works ok. Then I use the Installer and made a --onefile
"binary". The building process is also ok but when I try to execute the
program I get the following error

c:\python\siebel>convert "copy of test.txt"
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 18, in ?
LookupError: no codec search functions registered: can't find encoding

I change to --onedir build and get the same result. I did some tests
and found that if I put the "encodings" directory (from
".../python22/lib" directory) in the "--onedir" directory everything
works ok . So my question is how can I tell the Installer to get the
"encodings" directory in the build process?

Expicitely importing the codecs module in the Python program should solve the
problem.

BTW, McMillan Installer has its own mailing list (see
http://trixie.triqs.com/mailman/listinfo/installer). You'll usually get quicker
and/or better answers if you post your questions there rather than on c.l.py.

As always google is your friend. The answer to the problem is and I quote

"""
Chad, Just change support/useUnicode.py to say:
"import encodings"

(codecs and encodings used to import each other, but not any longer).

-- Gordon
