Hi, I' wondering what the difference between hython and python is.

I can load hip-files that use custom built dso:s with hython but not with python.



Hython:

using hython I write….

hou.hipFile.load(“myhipfile.hip”)

which makes the file load successfully.


Python:

using python I write….

import sys, os
sys.path.append(“/opt/hfs9.5.170/houdini/scripts/python”)
import hou //this is where I get the errors
hou.hipFile.load(“myhipfile.hip”)

then I get DSO errors:
“_ZNK7OP_Node11getFullPathER9UT_String” for Sops
and
_ZN7UT_LockC1Ebb for Vops


why is this, do I need to load anything else when using python before calling “import hou”?

Thanks!

maybe you need to import hou as well?

import hou

thanks for the response, but I'm importing hou… that's when I get the errors.

Basically this has nothing to do with my hip-file, instead the actual problem is when loading houdini using “import hou” which then makes houdini load all digital assets. There is nothing wrong with the assets as they work when using hython or the houdini application.

Hython must be doing something that I'm not aware of…

it was so hidden between the comments … maybe
