Using Anaconda/Conda Solution

[henkphilipsipl]

Using Anaconda/Conda
Seems like Anaconda has an issue with ctypes. See the comment here imdatacenters says to:

If you are using a special version of Python [like Anaconda] and you can't fix it. Navigate to line 362 of lib/ctypes/init.py and change it to: self._handle = _dlopen(str(self._name), mode)

Solution, install Anaconda 32 bit. this will solve the problem Python 3.7
Anaconda3-5.3.0-Windows-x86
https://www.anaconda.com/download/#windows

Can you please fix your link?

FYI: python3.7 is REALLY new.

Would you be interested in a conda(-forge) package for this?

Is this related to: #103 ?

And it seems that updating python solves things? pymedusa/Medusa#1843 (comment) but maybe that is for 2.7

Navigate to line 362 of lib/ctypes/init.py and change it to: self._handle = _dlopen(str(self._name), mode) I had this problem with the 64 bit version of Anaconda. After installing the 32 bit v3.7 the problem was solved Best regards, Henk From: Mark Harfouche <[email protected]> Sent: woensdag 3 oktober 2018 21:39 To: colinoflynn/pico-python <[email protected]> Cc: Heijden, Henk van der <[email protected]>; Author <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [colinoflynn/pico-python] Using Anaconda/Conda Solution (#141) Is this related to: #103<https://emea01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fcolinoflynn%2Fpico-python%2Fissues%2F103&data=02%7C01%7C%7C45934653a11749cde84e08d62967ec87%7C1a407a2d76754d178692b3ac285306e4%7C0%7C0%7C636741923655563310&sdata=RI4sPQ0i5hEv%2F%2F1KVhml2ErvjLXwy34N%2BdqhLJg4Ggo%3D&reserved=0> ? — You are receiving this because you authored the thread.
