TypeError: super(type, obj) when running pyprocessing script interactively


Python 2.7.3:

Create the simplest possible pyprocessing file and save it as foo.py:

from pyprocessing import *

def setup():
    size(100,100)

def draw():
    rect(10,10,10,10)

run()

Now in python:

>>> execfile('foo.py')

The file runs as expected. Close the pyprocessing window to return to the prompt and type:

>>> execfile('foo.py')

and you're greeted with:

Traceback (most recent call last):

TypeError: super(type, obj): obj must be an instance or subtype of type

What is happening here? Is this a bug are am I using pyprocessing wrong?


Solution

  • This works as subprocess spawns a separate process each time:

    from subprocess import call 
    call([sys.executable, 'foo.py'])
