Back to Conversion
I resolved the github issues and committed the changes to sphere. I ported the changes to stsci.sphere and resolved the 2to3 compaibility problems. More
Image Boosting
I finished up converting the stsci.sphere package to run under Python 2 and 3, then converted the stsci.imagestats and stsci.imagemanip packages. I would have finished with the latter but I ran into Python import hell. More
One Fixed One Not
I was able to run the test case for stsci.sphere to completion, so I checked the code in. So all work on sphere is done. I continued to have problems with imagemanip. The python 3 version of the code is not recognizing the c method bilinearinterp, More
Old Problems
I converted the stsci.image and stsci.sphinxext packages and committed the chaanges to Subversion. Mihai reported a new problem with stsci.sphere and Warren says an old problem is not fixed, so I am looking into that. More
Part Way
I fixed the problem Mihai reported with drizzlepac. Unfortunately, in was in a package I was midway through converting to python 3: stsci.skypac. After fixing the error, I finished the conversion. But unfortunately it is having a problem loading numerixenv under Python 3, so I haven't committed ... More
Backing Up
To finish the conversion of stsci.skypac I had to go back and create relative imports in stsci.tools and stsci.imagestats. After doing that, I checked all three packages into subversion. More
Debug Hound
I spent the day debugging and puzzling over the stsci.sphere graph code, which is throwing an assertion error which causes tweakreg to die. I couldn't solve the problem, so I asked Mike's opinion. I did discover some discrepancies between the stsci.sphere code and the astropy sphere code, so I ... More
Some Closure
I worked some more on the stsci.sphere bug and sento the info to Mike. While waiting for his fix, I converted the stsci.samplepackage and stsci.numdisplay packages and committed the changes. Mike finished his fix, and I added it to my version of the astropy sphere package and will backport the ... More
Finishung Up
I spent the morning back porting the astropy sphere changes to stsci.sphere and making sure they work. And in the afternoon I double check the stsci packages to make sure they use relative imports where appropriate. More
On to Synphot
I fixed the last remaining problem with the stsci.* packages and checked it in and moved onto updating the pysynphot package. More
Back and Forth
There was a bug in stsci.imagemanip. Fixed it, bit the C interface problem canme back. Otherwise I spent the day converting the python code in pysynphot. More
Finished Coding
I finished coding the python 3 changes to pysynphot and I am now debugging. More
Frustration
Worked on the problem of stsci.imagemanip not finding bilinearinterp when running under Python 3. With no success. More
Progress!
I solved the problem with bilinearinterp and alsp the import problem with pysynphot. More
Double Back
The pysynphot import problem was not solved. I really solved it today (really). I ran the pandokia tests on pysynphot under python2. None errored, but some failed, which I will look at. Tried running the python3 tests, but didn't have pandokia set up correctly. More
Python testing
I successfully ran the Pandokia tests for pysynphot under both python2 and python3. There is a problem with the scanner introspecting its classes that throws an error under python3. More
Unimproved
It turns out the problem with the spectrum parser was that, in part, it was calling string functions instead of methods. But there are other problems with the parser I haven't found yet. More
Not Perfect
I spent the day trying to debug pysynphot. Big problem with the parser. More
Still Stuck
Still trying to locate the bug in spark.py. More
Still Debugging
Still putting prints in spark.py More
Try Something New
Spent some more time debugging spark.py without success. Then moved onto updating the online stsdas help. More
Help
I worked on fixing the stsdas online help. I added a new expression interpreter to handle expressions in the environment definitions and regenerated the help databases. More
