AddOn Tutorial register_class error

Coding Python Support

Just trying to work through basic tutorial for add-ons.
http://www.blender.org/documentation/blender_python_api_2_65_5/info_tutorial_addon.html

Tried to run code from both text editor and as an add-on


bl_info = {
    "name": "Move X Axis",
    "category": "Object",
}

import bpy


class ObjectMoveX(bpy.types.Operator):
    """My Object Moving Script"""      # blender will use this as a tooltip for menu items and buttons.
    bl_idname = "object.move_x"        # unique identifier for buttons and menu items to reference.
    bl_label = "Move X by One"         # display name in the interface.
    bl_options = {'REGISTER', 'UNDO'}  # enable undo for the operator.

    def execute(self, context):        # execute() is called by blender when running the operator.

        # The original script
        scene = context.scene
        for obj in scene.objects:
            obj.location.x += 1.0

        return {'FINISHED'}            # this lets blender know the operator finished successfully.

def register():
    bpy.utils.register_class(ObjectMoveX)


def unregister():
    bpy.utils.unregister_class(ObjectMoveX)


# This allows you to run the script directly from blenders text editor
# to test the addon without having to install it.
if __name__ == "__main__":
    register()

I get the error:


 bpy.utils.register_class(ObjectMoveX)
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'register_class'

I’m running Blender 2.5. I must be missing something really basic.

Thanks for any help.

I guess the problem is you are running Blender 2.5. Download 2.7 and it works.
