Python Indention Error

I get a:


File "alarm.py", line 11
gtk.main_quit()

IndentationError: expected an indented block

self.window.show_all()
#btnSnooze.hide()

return

def main():
gtk.main()
return 0

if __name__ == "__main__":
Clock()
main()

I have tried moving clicked_btnApply above delete_event but I then get another error. Can anyone tell me where I have gone wrong?

It's tough to tell without the actual error message, but the def's should all be indented the same amount, i.e.
def delete_event(self, widget, event, data=None):
gtk.main_quit()
return False

def clicked_btnApply(self, widget):
strDay = self.cmbDay.get_text()
print strDay
return False

def __init__(self)

The line "def delete_event..." was indented one block too deep.

When you get some form of syntax error, look at the line mentioned and up of that line. BTW, clicked_btnapply is also indented too deep.

Yeah I copied and pasted dwblas code and it worked. It looks fine in Geany, maybe it was a spaces vs. tabs issue?

Use real editor. Use tools which help you in your job.

Real editor is one which lets you set tab size, and converts leading tabs to spaces. Set tab size to 4. Done. You will never have this kind of error again.

Use a language which has proper block delimiters... ;)

Even the python IDE will tell you, at least mine does, select all and Format->> Untabify Region... Yes, set it to 4.

Im using SPE now, is that better sir?

[dwblas]

And now, you will hopefully help someone with the same error. There will be more than one. It is easy to get so involved with the logic of the code that you overlook the obvious.

python is sensitive to tabs vs. spaces. stick to just one in the future.

(didnt read the above comments, so im sorry if this was already mentioned)
