error running sample application

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?

 run this code: 
#!/usr/bin/env python
#
# assuming you are using virtual environments. 
#
# >source env/bin/activate
# >pip install --pre npyscreen
import npyscreen

class myEmployeeForm(npyscreen.Form):
    def afterEditing(self):
        self.parentApp.NEXT_ACTIVE_FORM = None

    def create(self):
       self.myName        = self.add(npyscreen.TitleText, name='Name')
       self.myDepartment = self.add(npyscreen.TitleSelectOne, scroll_exit=True, max_height=3, name='Department', values = ['Department 1', 'Department 2', 'Department 3'])
       self.myDate        = self.add(npyscreen.TitleDateCombo, name='Date Employed')

class MyApplication(npyscreen.NPSAppManaged):
    def onStart(self):
        self.addForm('MAIN', myEmployeeForm, name='New Employee')
        # A real application might define more forms here.......

if __name__ == '__main__':
    TestApp = MyApplication().run()

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Very odd.

1.  That example code runs perfectly on my setup.

2. The call to refresh is a call to the python standard library, which has 
always taken 6 optional arguments.  It is documented here:

http://docs.python.org/2/library/curses.html#curses.window.refresh

and 

http://docs.python.org/3/library/curses.html#curses.window.refresh

I've tested it under python2 and python3.3

It is almost as if centos has given you a non-standard version of the standard 
curses library.  

Is there any other way you can replicate the problem?

using the native python 2.6.6 on centos 6.4 works for me as well. I'm trying to 
get it to run using python 3.3 (using the make altinstall method) but when I do 
this I get import errors for various thing (pygtk, gtk for example) and in my 
thrashing about thought I had it right... but maybe not sorry for the red 
herring

There WAS a bug in Python 3.2 on some platforms that showed this bug:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python3.2/+bug/1021783

I wonder if you are seeing a version of that?
