Module Name Discrepancy Between Platforms

[Robatronic]

For some reason, there's a difference between Windows and Linux installs.

I recently did pip install on Windows and Linux hosts. A test app in Windows worked but the Linux one complained of an ImportError. In Windows, the module is snap7.types while in Linux it is snap7.type. Either that, or there's some other issue.

I used the workaround:

try:
from snap7.types import Areas
except ImportError:
from snap7.type import Areas

I think that is leading to other issues, though as other modules are expecting 'types' not 'type'.....

are you sure the versions are the same? We don't have a types submodule:

We might have changed that over the years, please check the version numbers

i think this is not a bug, closing the issue. please reopen if you still have an issue.
