hi,

i'm trying to use some of the calibre code to generate some thumbnails, but i'm running into an issue with an

Quote:

Exception: No module named winutil

this happens when i try to do:

Code:

from calibre.ebooks.mobi.reader.mobi6 import MobiReader

so i'm trying to find how i can provide this winutil module to my project, but i can't find it in the calibre source tree, and it seems to only exist in the installed version in pylib.zip/winutil.pyd

can any one tell me a bit about this module, and where i can find it?

with thanks

You cannot use calibre code directly in your projects, it depends on various native (C) code modules which wont be present ina normal python interpreter. See http://manual.calibre-ebook.com/deve...-your-projects
