# SyntaxError: invalid syntax #
import math as m

#checkLIST
#Get Window n functionality first

class CupCakeFactory(object):
def __init__(self):
self.winName = "CupCake Maker"
self.createMaker()

def createMaker(self):
if cmds.window(self.winName, exists=True):
cmds.deleteUI(self.winName)
cmds.window(self.winName)
cmds.frameLayout( label='Master',collapsable=True)
cmds.scrollLayout( 'scrollLayout')
cmds.columnLayout(adjustableColumn=True)

def self.ProductionUI = cmds.frameLayout(label='Make CupCakes',collapsable=True)
# Error: invalid syntax
# File "<maya console>", line 21
# def self.ProductionUI = cmds.frameLayout(label='Make CupCakes',collapsable=True)
# ^
# SyntaxError: invalid syntax #

I keep getting syntax errors even if I layed out the code correctly. Could anyone care to explain to me where does this syntax error appears from? Also, is there any way to know how to avoid this in the future.

Asside from a missing "from maya import cmds" statement at the top of the script it looks like you are missing the method name in your last def statement.

e.g.

def someMethod(self):
    self.ProductionUI = cmds.frameLayout(label='Make CupCakes',collapsable=True)
