Broken example code - top.py

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Run downloaded top.py example

What is the expected output?
As per screenshot on documentation web-site

What do you see instead?
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./top.py", line 203, in <module>
    main()
  File "./top.py", line 196, in main
    args = poll(interval)
  File "./top.py", line 91, in poll
    p.dict = p.as_dict(['username', 'nice', 'get_memory_info',
AttributeError: 'Process' object has no attribute 'as_dict'

What version of psutil are you using? What Python version?
0.4.1

On what operating system? Is it 32bit or 64bit version?
Linux 64bit

Please provide any additional information below.
Looks like a new method, "as_dict", has been added to Process class and the 
example updated to use it. The available download doesn't appear to have this 
method yet.

Of course, because as_dict() has been added to the trunk.
It appears you're using "new" top.py with 0.4.1 version installed, which is 
obviously "older" than the current development trunk.

Would it be possible to have the documentation and examples "match" the 
"current" release rather than the trunk?  It substantially lowers the bar for 
people learning an API if the documentation matches the version available.

Documentation always matches the current release, never the trunk/development 
version.
I update it only at the time I release a new tarball version.

As for the example scripts, maybe you're referring to the links in the home 
page which point to example scripts in the trunk version, right?
In that case I can change that.

Closing out as invalid.

I am having the error: 
AttributeError: 'Process' object has no attribute 'as_dict'

I also can not find this function anywhere in this repository. Any idea?
