Have you recompiled this module for 3rd Edition ?
If not then I think it doesn't work
First this module has appswitch name instead of _appswitch
Secondly you can put it in the c:\sys\bin folder
and try this

 appswitch=imp.load_dynamic('appswitch', 'c:\\sys\\bin\\appswitch.pyd')

How to put ??? I can't! They says Unable Install (if i sign via devcert or selfsign)
You author of Keypress ??? can you recompile and send me your keypress module ?

[jplauril]

All native binaries (such as .pyd files) on 3rd edition must be in \sys\bin directory and the only way to install files there is by packaging it in a SIS file.

In addition, 3rd edition is binary incompatible with previous platform versions so all .pyd's must be at least recompiled. Other changes may also be necessary because of API changes that have occurred.

Sorry but I have only 2nd Edition SDK
But someone can compile it and make some changes ( if needed for 3rd compatibility ) to my source code keypress then it'll allow to all 3rd phones to run it

Hi,

I have compiled keypress module for 3rd edition. Can anyone explain me how I could make it working on winscw emulator. I tried by copying the .pyd files to winscw\c\sys\bin and copying key_modifiers file to resource folder.
But I get an error as no module found when I import keypress. I tried it on the phone also but I got the same error.
Any help...

br,

Hi lakhsy,

So if you have compiled in the 3rd edition SDK you probably typed :
your_project_folder\abld build winscw udeb

Let say that you named your dll _keypress.pyd. Then you copied it in winscw\c\sys\bin which is correct.

Now in ressource folder you'll create a keypress.py file and you put inside:

import e32

if e32.s60_version_info>=(3,0):
    import imp
    _keypress = imp.load_dynamic('_keypress', 'c:\\sys\\bin\\_keypress.pyd')
    
else:
    import _keypress

del e32, imp #remove unnecessary names from namespace
from _keypress import *
del _keypress

This will load the dll as it should.

After from your python script you load the module like before:

import keypress

Try that out and let use know that we make a .sisx for everbody

Hi,

Thank you,
I followed the steps which you have explained below. Installtion of the sis package on the phone was ok. But when I tried to load the dll (import keypress) I got an error as
"SymbianError [Error: -46] KErrPermissionDenied."
Then I compiled the source code of the python for S60 for 3rd edition. I have created Python_For_symbianos.sis, Python_for_s60.sis package using my keys and certicate. I was able to import keypress when I type it for the second time in the console. when I try to load it for the first time I am getting an error as

"SystemError _PyImport_ Fix up extension: Module keypress not loaded"

Has anyone tried this or found such type of error.
Any help please...

Thank You,
Br,

Have you changed the internal module name in the keypress module source?

The 2nd ed source says:

    m = Py_InitModule("KeyPress", (PyMethodDef*)keypress_methods);

The module name passed as the first argument to Py_InitModule should match the .pyd filename. If you change the pyd name to _keypress.pyd, you need to change that Py_InitModule first argument to "_keypress".

True! I forgot to mention it

Sorry...

Hi,

Thank You, Finally I got it working. I will place the sis file soon when its in good shape.
I have a question. I would like to know if its possible to capture a screenshot automatically when the screen changes? If yes can anyone please briefly explain me what events I need to use to make it happen. It would really be a great help.

Hi,

Sorry for not attaching the sis file becuase Iam still struggling with it to make it working. Now Iam able to import the keypress dll but when I try to access the method as keypress.sumulate_key. It gives me an error as

Attribute Error: Module object has no attribute simulate_key.

Can anyone help me to solve this problem.

Thank You,
