Pymel, pm.warning barf

Maybe I’m being stupid here but I can’t seem to get the pm.warning to work.
The example:

import pymel.core as pm
pm.warning( "No Dice" )
# Error: 'module' object has no attribute 'warning'
# Traceback (most recent call last):
#   File "<maya console>", line 2, in <module>
# AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'warning' #

and

import pymel.all as pma
pma.warning( "No Dice" )
# Error: 'module' object has no attribute 'warning'
# Traceback (most recent call last):
#   File "<maya console>", line 1, in <module>
# AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'warning' #

Is this one of those broken things?

what version of pymel/maya are you using?

import pymel.core as pm
pm.warning(‘No Dice’)

works fine in 2012.

Pymel 1.0
Maya 2009

Yeah it appears that it isn’t working in Maya 2009 with pymel 0.9.
This works however:

import pymel.core as pm
pm.pwarnings.warn("Dice!")

Neither is it working with pymel 1.0.2.
This works however:

import pymel.internal.pwarnings as pmWarnings
pmWarnings.warn("Dice!")

Doing some more in depth investigation.

[QUOTE=DrBob;10405]Yeah it appears that it isn’t working in Maya 2009 with pymel 0.9.
I am checking with 1.0.2 now…

This works however:

import pymel.core as pm
pm.pwarnings.warn("Dice!")

Tell me how that goes for ya rhexter

Hmmm…that being the case, my guess is it wouldn’t work prior to 0.92 or 0.93, but I don’t get why it wouldn’t work in 1.0…time to check the changelogs.

alternatively you can you:

import pymel.core as pm
pm.mel.warning("Dice!")

Working with Seth at the mo to get to the bottom of this.

Ditto this, unless your pymel.core.init is broken, any of these should work:

import pymel.core as pm

pm.warning
pm.mel.warning
pm.Mel.warning
pm.language.Mel.warning

So after some long digging by Seth and I we found out (facepalm) that maya 2009 doesn’t have a python call for warning and maya 2012 does.

So yeah, use the pm.mel.warning call.

Cheers for the investigation guys, I did default to the version…

pm.mel.warning('Dice')

Just wanted to confirm i wasn’t missing something.
