Re: [Swftools-common] Using rfxview on website

[Hans Nuecke (vservu)]

Hi Chris,
your email made me try to install the Python gfx module; finally ;-)
So far I used pdf2swf in a batch file...

But: during the "python setup.py build" process I get the an error

  File "setup.py", line 4, in <module>
    from distutils.core import CompileError
ImportError: cannot import name CompileError

When I take the statement with the import out (in setup.py: "from distutils.core import CompileError") I get the next error (no surprise):
"NameError: global name 'CompileError' is not defined"

There is a try-except in line 105 that tests for CompileError. Which could not be loaded.
I got stuck here and couldn't find a solution so far.

Here my config:
Windows7 64
Python 2.7 (I tried both 64 and 32 bit)
Latest swftools-2010-10-12-2000 download

I will check if it installs under Windows XP with Python 2.6.
But if someone has an idea how to get the setup.py working under Python27 and Win7 would be great!

Thanks for your great work and support!

Regards
Hans


Obviously the import

Hello Friends,

I was looking for an open source alternative to Scribd's iPaper and
came across swftools.org.

As you may be aware, Matthias Kramm ( the swftools originator ) currently
works for Scribd. ;o) 

I would like to know how can I use "rfxview" to display PDF files on my
website. I didn't find any documentation regarding this on
swftools.org wiki. My site is PHP based.

rfxview is Python based.  Documentation is here,

    http://wiki.swftools.org/index.php/Python_gfx_module

For php, you are stuck with calling the SWFTools binaries with exec or similar.
Check the mailing list archive for references.

HTH,
