v131 - import system not working anymore

[FlorianK]

Realflow Python cannot find import system, anymore. Does anybody else have this issue?

Hey Florian,

I guess you need system to move in the system preferences, don't you?. Importing OS is not enough?. Let me know what you want to do.

Any script containing import system (or any other module inside system) doesn't work anymore. Which breaks the complete pipeline here as we cannot submit our sims via deadline to the RF nodes. System is a crucial Python module and that simply must work.

The issue happens on two different computers, it is reproducable and I already wrote an email earlier today.

Try the following:

1. Open Batch Script Editor
2. type import system
3. run script

-> Error

The same happens with any other script that is referring to the system module.

import system doesn't even work in IDLE.

From IDLE:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#0>", line 1, in <module>
import system
ImportError: No module named system

Do you mean to load the sys module: import sys ?

[FlorianK]

Ok...
The real commands (that alo don't work anymore) are

from system import *

or

from System.IO import *

what works fine is

import math,os

...and the same script had been running flawlessly, before.

Hi Florian,

Otuama is right. Even if you try "Import system" in RF5 o RF2012, it won't work either, and just for info, "os.sys" is os's "private" name for sys.

Ok, the issue was IronPython and the System module is part of that. Probably, the former Realflow installation here was altered so it understands IronPython...

Good to know

Thanks for the info Florian.
