export default and loading scripts doesn't work on Eve

[JanGieseler]

On the middle lab computer the scripts loading from the convert dialog doesn't work: console output: bad magic number in 'b26_toolkit': b'\x03\xf3\r\n

• checked the PYTHONPATH, which was not set correctly before (only pointing to pylabcontrol not to b26_toolkit and because of the all the instruments were broken, however after setting the PYTHONPATH this was not longer an issue. still loading scripts doesn't work

Console output (the issue might be the mix of / and \ in the filepath)

classes_dict {} files ['C:/Users/NV Experiment/PycharmProjects/pylabcontrol/pylabcontrol/scripts\example_scripts.py', 'C:/Users/NV Experiment/PycharmProjects/pylabcontrol/pylabcontrol/scripts\script_wait.py', 'C:/Users/NV Experiment/PycharmProjects/pylabcontrol/pylabcontrol/scripts\select_points.py'] importing pylabcontrol.scripts.example_scripts bad magic number in 'b26_toolkit': b'\x03\xf3\r\n' importing pylabcontrol.scripts.script_wait bad magic number in 'b26_toolkit': b'\x03\xf3\r\n' importing pylabcontrol.scripts.select_points bad magic number in 'b26_toolkit': b'\x03\xf3\r\n' classes_dict {}

I think Aaron probably just hasn't finished making the exporting work for packages not in the pythonpath.

It might seem weird that it works on the other computers, but there is a setting in pycharm where we (temporarily) set pylabcontrol to depend on b26_toolkit, so that b26_toolkit is put into the pythonpath when we run anything in pylabcontrol.

This seems to be an issue caused by old .pyc files not working when you switch from python 2->3, change folder structures, or bring them over from a different computer. It was solved by deleting all of the .pyc files in b26_toolkit and pylabcontrol and forcing python to create new ones from the current code.

Why would we be sharing.pyc files between computers? (I thought I deleted them all from GitHub a few months ago)

Did you test this on eve? When I checked there were not pyc files in the script folder...
