######################################################################################## # The console log of an abort in the May 2018 Python 3.6/Tk 8.6 python.org install, # described at http://learning-python.com/python-changes-2014-plus.html#macpythontk86. # This one occurs on High Sierra, when opening a standard Tk file-save dialog during # a basic Save-As action in the PyEdit program. It's running code that has worked # perfectly on all other Pythons and Tks used. Per tracing, the new Python 3.6 and # Tk 8.6 are indeed running (Tk 8.6.8 specifically, though 8.6.7 crashes similarly). ######################################################################################## /MY-STUFF/Code/pyedit/TextEditor$ python3.6 textEditor.py PyEdit auto-save running PyEdit auto-save finished PyEdit caught openApp 2018-05-16 11:21:36.290 Python[501:12731] *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: 'File types array cannot be empty' *** First throw call stack: ( 0 CoreFoundation 0x00007fff38af02fb __exceptionPreprocess + 171 1 libobjc.A.dylib 0x00007fff5f45bc76 objc_exception_throw + 48 2 CoreFoundation 0x00007fff38b81d6d +[NSException raise:format:] + 205 3 AppKit 0x00007fff36783ca0 -[NSSavePanel setAllowedFileTypes:] + 154 4 libtk8.6.dylib 0x0000000109ce8d7d Tk_GetSaveFileObjCmd + 1907 5 libtcl8.6.dylib 0x0000000109ae26dc TclNRRunCallbacks + 80 6 _tkinter.cpython-36m-darwin.so 0x0000000109ac0219 Tkapp_Call + 585 7 Python 0x0000000108cd2ee2 PyCFunction_Call + 258 8 Python 0x0000000108d527ff _PyEval_EvalFrameDefault + 28527 9 Python 0x0000000108d566af _PyEval_EvalCodeWithName + 2447 10 Python 0x0000000108d5727b _PyFunction_FastCallDict + 763 11 Python 0x0000000108c8a287 _PyObject_FastCallDict + 247 12 Python 0x0000000108c8a3a5 _PyObject_Call_Prepend + 149 13 Python 0x0000000108c8a0c0 PyObject_Call + 96 14 Python 0x0000000108d5268f _PyEval_EvalFrameDefault + 28159 15 Python 0x0000000108d56ebd fast_function + 381 16 Python 0x0000000108d55c21 call_function + 401 17 Python 0x0000000108d523ac _PyEval_EvalFrameDefault + 27420 18 Python 0x0000000108d566af _PyEval_EvalCodeWithName + 2447 19 Python 0x0000000108d4b83b PyEval_EvalCodeEx + 107 20 Python 0x0000000108cb38cd function_call + 381 21 Python 0x0000000108c8a0c0 PyObject_Call + 96 22 Python 0x0000000108d5268f _PyEval_EvalFrameDefault + 28159 23 Python 0x0000000108d566af _PyEval_EvalCodeWithName + 2447 24 Python 0x0000000108d56f61 fast_function + 545 25 Python 0x0000000108d55c21 call_function + 401 26 Python 0x0000000108d523ac _PyEval_EvalFrameDefault + 27420 27 Python 0x0000000108d570dc _PyFunction_FastCallDict + 348 28 Python 0x0000000108c8a287 _PyObject_FastCallDict + 247 29 Python 0x0000000108c8a3a5 _PyObject_Call_Prepend + 149 30 Python 0x0000000108c8a0c0 PyObject_Call + 96 31 Python 0x0000000108d5268f _PyEval_EvalFrameDefault + 28159 32 Python 0x0000000108d566af _PyEval_EvalCodeWithName + 2447 33 Python 0x0000000108d5727b _PyFunction_FastCallDict + 763 34 Python 0x0000000108c8a287 _PyObject_FastCallDict + 247 35 Python 0x0000000108c8a3a5 _PyObject_Call_Prepend + 149 36 Python 0x0000000108c8a0c0 PyObject_Call + 96 37 _tkinter.cpython-36m-darwin.so 0x0000000109ac276c PythonCmd + 204 38 libtcl8.6.dylib 0x0000000109ae1202 TclInvokeStringCommand + 124 39 libtcl8.6.dylib 0x0000000109ae26dc TclNRRunCallbacks + 80 40 libtk8.6.dylib 0x0000000109c63965 ButtonWidgetObjCmd + 922 41 libtcl8.6.dylib 0x0000000109ae26dc TclNRRunCallbacks + 80 42 libtcl8.6.dylib 0x0000000109ae393a TclEvalEx + 1953 43 libtcl8.6.dylib 0x0000000109ae3193 Tcl_EvalEx + 26 44 libtk8.6.dylib 0x0000000109c3839f Tk_BindEvent + 3956 45 libtk8.6.dylib 0x0000000109c3db6d TkBindEventProc + 347 46 libtk8.6.dylib 0x0000000109c45636 Tk_HandleEvent + 1108 47 libtk8.6.dylib 0x0000000109c45b5f WindowEventProc + 96 48 libtcl8.6.dylib 0x0000000109b91a65 Tcl_ServiceEvent + 140 49 libtcl8.6.dylib 0x0000000109b91d10 Tcl_DoOneEvent + 326 50 _tkinter.cpython-36m-darwin.so 0x0000000109ac201d _tkinter_tkapp_mainloop + 269 51 Python 0x0000000108cd312b _PyCFunction_FastCallDict + 491 52 Python 0x0000000108d55c47 call_function + 439 53 Python 0x0000000108d523ac _PyEval_EvalFrameDefault + 27420 54 Python 0x0000000108d566af _PyEval_EvalCodeWithName + 2447 55 Python 0x0000000108d56f61 fast_function + 545 56 Python 0x0000000108d55c21 call_function + 401 57 Python 0x0000000108d523ac _PyEval_EvalFrameDefault + 27420 58 Python 0x0000000108d566af _PyEval_EvalCodeWithName + 2447 59 Python 0x0000000108d56f61 fast_function + 545 60 Python 0x0000000108d55c21 call_function + 401 61 Python 0x0000000108d523ac _PyEval_EvalFrameDefault + 27420 62 Python 0x0000000108d566af _PyEval_EvalCodeWithName + 2447 63 Python 0x0000000108d4b7c4 PyEval_EvalCode + 100 64 Python 0x0000000108d81901 PyRun_FileExFlags + 209 65 Python 0x0000000108d811b3 PyRun_SimpleFileExFlags + 851 66 Python 0x0000000108d9af62 Py_Main + 3554 67 Python 0x0000000108c75df8 Python + 3576 68 libdyld.dylib 0x00007fff6004a145 start + 1 69 ??? 0x0000000000000002 0x0 + 2 ) libc++abi.dylib: terminating with uncaught exception of type NSException Abort trap: 6 /MY-STUFF/Code/pyedit/TextEditor$ ######################################################################################## # The following sometimes appears on High Sierra program start-up too--but not always, # and it also now appears when running a Python 3.5/Tk 8.5.
