python sqlite THREADSAFE?
Hi, Is the sqlite distributed with Python 2.5 compiled with the -DTHREADSAFE=1 flag? My gutt feeling is Windows (yes) MacOS/Linux (no) but ... If it is not on MacOS/Linux, how do I go about replacing the sqlite so file with a threadsafe sqlite? Thanks, EuGeNe -- http://www.3kwa.com -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

poplib.retr doens't flag message as read
Hi there,
I am trying to use the poplib library to get emails using the retr
method. The small program bellow works but the message aren't flagged as
read which puzzles me. I believe the pop server is qmail 1.0.6 /
vpopmail 5.2.1 and I am running the following script on Windows using
Pyhton 2.5.
import poplib
import email
pop = poplib.POP3('mail.server.com')
pop.user('[EMAIL PROTECTED]')
pop.pass_('password')
status, msg_list, octets = pop.list()
for msg_number in [msg.split(' ')[0] for msg in msg_list]:
status, lines, octets = pop.retr(msg_number)
msg = email.message_from_string('\n'.join(lines))
if not msg.is_multipart() and msg.get_content_type() == 'text/plain':
print msg.get('Subject')
print msg.get_payload()
pop.quit()
Why aren't the message flagged as read? Is there a way to manually mark
them read?
Thanks,

file / module / package - import problem
Hi there,
I have a problem which could be a bad design on my behalf but I am not
sure so ...
I have a package WMI which contains a module hauteur.py which, when
imported, load data from a file located in WMI/data/. In hauteur.py I
call open('data/hauteur.yaml').
test.py
WMI/
hauteur.py
data/
hauteur.yaml
lot.py
It works well when hauteur is imported in lot.py but if I try import
WMI.hauteur in test.py it doesn't work because it looks for the
hauteur.yaml file in the wrong place.
Is there a way to tell a module in a package to look for a file in a
specific place i.e. a within package location?
Thanks,

Re: base64 and unicode
Duncan Booth wrote:
However, the decoded text looks as though it is utf16 encoded so it should be

Thanks for the wb tip that works (see bellow). I guess it is
experience based but how could you tell that it was utf16 encoded?
Simpler than using the base64 module you can just use the base64 codec.
This will decode a string to a byte sequence and you can then decode that
to get the unicode string:
with file(hebrew.b64,r) as f:
text = f.read().decode('base64').decode('utf16')
You can then write the text to a file through any desired codec or process
it first.
with file(hebrew.lang,wb) as f:
... file.write(text.encode('utf16'))
Done ... superb!
BTW, you may just have shortened your example too much, but depending on
python to close files for you is risky behaviour. If you get an exception
thrown before the file goes out of scope it may not get closed when you
expect and that can lead to some fairly hard to track problems. It is much
better to either call the close method explicitly or to use Python 2.5's
'with' statement.
Yes I had shortened my example but thanks for the 'with' statement tip
... I never think about using it and I should ;)

EuroPython vs PyconUK
I do realize that the UK is not really part of Europe (no polemic :P) but I am nevertheless curious about the logic behind creating another major Python event in Europe. Wasn't EuroPython enough? Like many I am sure, I probably won't be able to attend both (and I really enjoyed the Geneva experience so definitely want to renew it). How would you go about selecting which conference to attend? They are only 2 months apart, 6 would have been easier for the attendees! Could the organizers liaise one way or another to make Pythoneers life as easy and fun as the language and give as much information out as possible as early as possible (early bird early) for people to make the best decision? I know marketing matters but ... EuGeNe -- http://www.3kwa.com -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: EuroPython vs PyconUK
Steve Holden wrote: So by this reasoning there should have been no Python UK conference for the last four years (in case you didn't know it ran as a track of the C/C++ conference, but ths track has now broadened to include all scripting languages). And what about the people who can't get the time and/or money to attend EuroPython? I am afraid there is a misunderstanding. I have no problem with PyCon UK but would like to have elements to help me choose (the official language of PyCon Uno Italy is Italian so that fixes it :P). Diversity is good, so it isn't one vs. the other. And the UK really *is* part of Europe (no matter how its politicians behave) :P I agree that diversity is good (you won't hear me say that there are too many web frameworks in Python :D) but isn't dilution a danger? If Guido was a rock star and I was a groupie, I would want to know which festival to attend to see him on stage. I guess there is always Google Video ;) More seriously in Geneva there were people from all over the place, speakers and attendees, which is one of the reason why such conferences are interesting (or am I deluded?). It is harder for someone from Australia to come twice to Europe in the space of 2 months than for a pythoneer lambda to spend a couple of days studying another web framework to see if it fits how his brain works and the problem he's got to solve. Looking at the reactions to my post, I must be wrong. I didn't mean to offend anyone if I did. I'll go to Vilnius because I have never seen the city and try to go to Birmingham if the program looks interesting (not very rational or is it?).

Fuzzyman wrote: I assume you have the same problem with the Italian one? Not so much because the official language of Pycon Uno Italy is Italian so I don't feel too concerned (unfortunately my Italian is not quite good enough). Seriously though, it is *great* to see the UK Python scene flourishing (and the Italian one). The more events that happen the better, and I don't think they need be in competition with each other... I *hope* the Europython guys don't see it like that. I agree it is great to see the Python scene grow (everywhere). The AFPY is organizing journees python francophones early June too cf. http://journees.afpy.org/. I have only been to one conference before so I may be under the wrong impressions but I don't see how the three events won't be competing for Ri (as in Shu Ha Ri) speakers for example. Do I sound like a groupie? Alex Martelli, brilliant speaker and Python evangelist (in my Shu Ha eyes anyway), lives in the States and is Italian. Busy as you'd expect from someone working for Google, decides to make the trip to Europe for a Python related conference, henceforth spends 3 1/2 months in Europe so he can do Italy in June (he is listed as an organizer), Lithuania in July and UK in September...
