Hi have code from the manual and it says downloadtask not defined. here is the code

http = HTTPClient()
channel = http.makeChannel(True)
channel.beginGetDocument(DocumentSpec('http://cdn.toontownreborn.tk/viewer/win32/'))
rf = Ramfile()
channel.downloadToRam(rf)
taskMgr.add(downloadTask, 'download')
 
def downloadTask(self, task):
    if self.channel.run():
        # Still waiting for file to finish downloading.
        return task.cont
    if not channel.isDownloadComplete():
        print "Error downloading file."
        return task.done
    data = rf.getData()
    print "got data:"
    print data
    return task.done
channel.downloadToFile(toontown.exe(toontown.exe))

Looking at the manual page from which this seems to come, I see that the code given there uses the “self.” prefix, implying that the snippet was intended to be used from within a class.

If you don’t want to use a class, then I believe that the code can be fixed by moving the lines before the definition of the method to a point after the end of the method, so that the method has been defined by the point at which those lines are executed.

Now I get downloadTask takes 2 arguments and 1 given the code now looks like this

def downloadTask(self, task):
	print "download is starting"
	if channel.run():
		# Still waiting for file to finish downloading.
		return task.cont
	if not self.channel.isDownloadComplete():
		print "Error downloading file."
		return task.done
	data = rf.getData()
	print "got data:"
	print data
	return task.done
http = HTTPClient()
channel = http.makeChannel(True)
channel.beginGetDocument(DocumentSpec('http://cdn.toontownreborn.tk/viewer/win32/toontown.exe'))
rf = Ramfile()
channel.downloadToRam(rf)
taskMgr.add(downloadTask, 'download')

Try:

def downloadTask(task):

This may help if you don’t know why:

Thanks it works now! All 'I need to do now is make a patcher.ver so it knows what to download.

Edit: Now when it downloads the update it gives windows error code 0. And I forgot what it means!
