I have built three Panda3d modules each with a different simulations. The idea is to display a menu and have the user select which simulation to run. If the menu is setup in Panda3d and the choice is “Imported” in a function a thread exception occurs.
If the modules are imported at the top of the menu script the modules run.
I need some way to call the modules to run, terminate, the return to the menu.
Any ideas out there?
it should (and I know for a fact it does) work that way.
Could you show some code?
what is the error you’re getting?
First the error:

You could try to do something like this:
#in the calling module --------------------
import treadmillwalk4
...
class startWalk():
def __init__(self):
treadmillwalk4.main()
...
# in the called module treadmillwalk4.py --------------------
...
def main():
# your "executable" instructions
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()Does this solve?
Thank you.
I didn’t get a chance to try the last code posted.
I took some time out from banging my head against a wall to do more research and this works:
class TreadMill():
def init(self):
runthis = ‘ppython /workspace/plab/sr/treadmillwalk4.py’
s = os.popen(runthis).read()
print s
Each menu item calls its own class and a new Pand3d window opens on top of the menu window with the program running.
The python os module is confusing in documentation and examples and to make it more fun was apparently decremented in 2.7 with process.
