[issue4580] slicing of memoryviews when itemsize != 1 is wrong

2008-12-12 Thread Nick Coghlan

Nick Coghlan ncogh...@gmail.com added the comment:

I still don't see the problem:

Py_buffer is a minimal description of a region of memory. No more, no
less. It doesn't *do* anything, it's just a description.

memoryview is an object that will (when it's finished) provide an easy
way to access the memory of another object.

Having a fairly raw low level API
(Py_buffer/PyObject_GetBuffer/PyBuffer_Release) and a higher level, more
convenient, but higher overhead API (memoryview) seems like a perfectly
natural split to me. Multi-level APIs are a great way of freeing the
more abstract interface from the need to handle every single possible
edge case - we can quite reasonably tell people that care about the more
obscure edge cases to drop down a level and handle them with the raw API.

We just need to finish the job of making the convenience wrapper
actually able to handle the task we would like it to handle. Your latest
patch goes a long way towards doing that for the 1 dimensional case - if
Travis doesn't get to it first, I plan on taking a look a closer look at
it this weekend.

[issue4580] slicing of memoryviews when itemsize != 1 is wrong

2008-12-12 Thread Nick Coghlan

Nick Coghlan ncogh...@gmail.com added the comment:

Trying another way of getting the point across... if Py_buffer wasn't
defined in PEP 3118, there would have to be some *other* API there
whereby the memoryview implementation could ask an object for a
description of the data layout of the object's buffer.

It is Py_buffer which allows the implementation of memoryview to even be
contemplated.

The one point where the PEP is silent (and I think this might be what
you've been attempting to get at) is as to whether or not it is OK for a
client to *modify* the contents of the Py_buffer structure before
passing it back in to PyBuffer_Release.

And to that I would say that a robust type implementation shouldn't be
assuming *anything* about the contents of the Py_buffer passed to
PyBuffer_Release. If it needs to do more than decrement a reference
count when the buffer is released (e.g. releasing memory allocated for
shapes and strides information), then it should be doing its own
internal bookkeeping based on the address of the Py_buffer object
originally passed to PyObject_GetBuffer.

I don't see in what way it would break existing applications. The
indices returned by that command in Tcl should all be represented as
strings in Python, so I see this at max causing a double attempt to
convert it to str.

 Can you remind me what problem was fixed with r59653? I can't find the

I had trouble finding it too, it was redirected to somewhere else and
marked as private because of spam. I asked a tk developer for the
issue and he kindly pasted the comments here:
http://paste.tclers.tk/1381?v=raw
I didn't want to go offtopic here but it raises a question about
handling bgerror and I don't know where else I should ask this so.. I
have been working on a new _tkinter (before I went traveling, back
now) and I have been supporting the use of bgerror but would like to
know what kind of problems it used to cause to Tkinter or _tkinter.
For IDLE specifically I had to disable it.

 If it fixes a problem with supporting Tcl 8.5, then I will also reject
 the request. Supporting Tcl 8.5 is a new feature, and should thus not be
 added to 2.5.3. Only Tcl up to 8.4 is support by Python 2.5.


But if it doesn't affect anything in the current usage, why not
backport such patch ? Even though you can say that tcl 8.5 is not
supported by python 2.5, _tkinter doesn't enforce this.

It looks like optparse doesn't complain when -debug (single minus) is

[issue4643] cgitb.html fails if getattr call raises exception

2008-12-12 Thread Allan Crooks

New submission from Allan Crooks a...@users.sourceforge.net:

If cgitb.html tries to get the value of an attribute from an object, and
the getattr call causes an exception to be raised (other than an
AttributeError), then cgitb.html fails to work:

If you run the attached file in Python 2.5.2 or 2.6, you get the
following output:



A: the letter a
B:
Something went wrong - attempting to generate HTML stack trace.
Error generating HTML stack trace!
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File attrtest.py, line 21, in module
html_text = cgitb.html(sys.exc_info())
  File C:\python26\lib\cgitb.py, line 133, in html
vars = scanvars(reader, frame, locals)
  File C:\python26\lib\cgitb.py, line 84, in scanvars
value = getattr(parent, token, __UNDEF__)
  File attrtest.py, line 8, in __getattr__
return str(slf) # Intentional NameError
NameError: global name 'slf' is not defined



The problem is in the scanvars function - it offers no protection
against any unexpected exceptions that occur (that escape the getattr
call) - which can be a problem if it is the same problematic code that
caused cgitb.html to be called in the first place.

I think scanvars should catch any exceptions that come from the getattr
call and either mention that the attribute value could not be
determined, or simply omit the mention of the attribute at all.

If the line in the attached file is commented out, then the next line is
caught appropriately and formatted correctly (the offending code occurs
in the same block, but doesn't cause the same problem because it raises
an AttributeError).

[issue3439] create a numbits() method for int and long types

2008-12-12 Thread Mark Dickinson

Mark Dickinson dicki...@gmail.com added the comment:

Victor,

This looks good.  If it's okay with you, I'll work on the documentation 
a little (we need an entry in whatsnew, and a description of the 
semantics of numbits for 0 and negative integers.) Then I think this 
will be ready.

 I prefer to keep the fast path (use _PyLong_NumBits) as *you* 
 proposed in another message: Message75767.

Sorry---I wasn't clear.  I wasn't suggesting getting rid of the fast 
path---I was suggesting inlining the _PyLong_NumBits code in 
long_numbits (leaving _PyLong_NumBits itself intact, of course).  It 
would eliminate all the messing around with exceptions.  But I think the 
current code is fine.

About the negative integer: the documentation should be number of 
bits of the *absolute value* of x and by convention, 0.numbits() is 
0. But you're right, the documentation is not clear.

- why do you use PyLong_FromSize_t rather than PyInt_FromSize_t?

- isn't the if (ndigits == 0) check redundant?

STINNER Victor victor.stin...@haypocalc.com added the comment:

 - why do you use PyLong_FromSize_t rather than PyInt_FromSize_t?

I choosed to use consistent result type. But now I would prefer int :-) I see 
that PyInt_FromSize_t() returns a long if the value doesn't fit in an int. So 
it's correct.

 - isn't the if (ndigits == 0) check redundant?

I'm paranoid: if _PyLong_NumBits() fails but the number is zero, the function 
may crash. But this case is impossible: _PyLong_NumBits() can only fails with 
an OverflowError.

Can you fix these two issues (use PyInt_FromSize_t and remove the if)?

Cool.  I think int is better, simply because the result is almost always going 
to fit 
into an int in practice, and because calculations with ints are faster.

Yeah, me too.  I removed the check, but also changed the assert to check that
Py_SIZE is nonzero.

c:\python30\lib\distutils\dist.py:259: UserWarning: Unknown distribution

I believe the bug is in all versions of Python; since it never has been
fixed (or even found) I'm not sure if it is worth fixing.  However,
patch is attached.

[issue3439] create a numbits() method for int and long types

2008-12-12 Thread Raymond Hettinger

Raymond Hettinger rhettin...@users.sourceforge.net added the comment:

The code looks fine.

For speed, you could insert the following just before the while-loop:

while (n = 256) {
n = 8;
result += 8;
}

Am not sure the numbits is the right-name.  Is there precedent in
other languages or texts on bit-twiddling techniques?  For
numbits(0b0100), I could forsee people predicting a result of 4, 3, or 1
depending on their world-view of what numbits might mean.  Personally, I
tend to think in term of high-bit location or somesuch.

[issue4647] Builtin parser module fails to parse relative imports

2008-12-12 Thread Kay Schluehr

New submission from Kay Schluehr k...@fiber-space.de:

I've added the following test method:

test_parser.py 
--
class RoundtripLegalSyntaxTestCase(unittest.TestCase):

def test_relative_import_statement(self):
self.check_suite(from . import sys)

The test fails raising the message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File test_parser.py, line 182, in test_relative_import_statement
self.check_suite(from . import sys)
  File test_parser.py, line 29, in check_suite

  File test_parser.py, line 20, in roundtrip
self.fail(could not roundtrip %r: %s % (s, why))
AssertionError: could not roundtrip 'from . import sys': Expected node
type 1, got 23.


Apparently the parser expects a NAME token and gets a DOT token.

This behaviour affects Python 2.5 and Python 2.6. Unchecked for Python 3.0.

[issue4617] SyntaxError when free variable name is also an exception target

2008-12-12 Thread Terry J. Reedy

Terry J. Reedy tjre...@udel.edu added the comment:

-1 as I understand the proposal.  Your code is bugged and should fail as
soon as possible.

If I understand correctly, you agree that the SyntaxError is correct as
the language is currently defined, but you want the definition changed.
It is not clear if you only want implicit deletes at the end of except
clauses to work or if you only want explicit deletes to work.

If the latter, you want

def f():
  e = 1
  del e
  def g(): print(e)
  return g

to compile. I would not.  Your reason After all, the variable
referenced has no value before it is set, (duh, right) makes no sense
to me in this context.  g must have a valid value of e to run.  So you
seem to be suggesting that detection of buggy code should be delayed.

[issue4342] (Tkinter) Please backport these

2008-12-12 Thread Martin v. Löwis

Martin v. Löwis mar...@v.loewis.de added the comment:

 I don't see in what way it would break existing applications. The
 indices returned by that command in Tcl should all be represented as
 strings in Python, so I see this at max causing a double attempt to
 convert it to str.

I can't quite follow your terminology: what indices?

I can imagine many cases where conversion using Python's str() gives
a different result than the conversion through Tcl objects. For example,
if Python returns a bool, 2.5 will pass 'True' to Tcl. 2.6 will convert
this to a Tcl boolean, whose string representation is '1'.

If you are saying that the Python command *should* return strings
always, then this assumption is precisely a candidate for breakage:
people might currently be returning all kinds of things to Tcl in
callbacks (even outside Tkinter), and we might break these
applications.

[issue4617] SyntaxError when free variable name is also an exception target

2008-12-12 Thread Raymond Hettinger

Raymond Hettinger rhettin...@users.sourceforge.net added the comment:

Not sure the del e idea was a good solution to the garbage collection
problem.  Amaury's code looks correct to me.  Maybe the existing e
variable should be overwritten and the left intact (as it used to be) or
perhaps it should be made both temporary and invisible like the
induction variable in a list comprehension.

Phillip, any thoughts?

[issue4648] Fix n//x to n/x in the Docs

2008-12-12 Thread Retro

New submission from Retro vinet...@gmail.com:

Please look at the example code in the following Python 3.0
documentation/tutorial:

http://docs.python.org/3.0/tutorial/controlflow.html#break-and-continue-statements-and-else-clauses-on-loops


The line 4 has a little fix to be made:

from
... print(n, 'equals', x, '*', n//x)
to
... print(n, 'equals', x, '*', n/x)


You probably noticed that n//x was proposed to be fixed to n/x. Please
note that this is Python 3.0 code. It's a small fix so I hope you won't
mind to fix this.

[issue4617] SyntaxError when free variable name is also an exception target

2008-12-12 Thread Amaury Forgeot d'Arc

Amaury Forgeot d'Arc amaur...@gmail.com added the comment:

Terry, my motivation is that the sample code above runs correctly with 
python 2.6, but python 3.0 cannot even compile it. The sample looks valid 
python code, and should run.
Yes, the same 'e' is used both as a nested variable and as an exception 
target, but this should not matter with our dynamic language.

First I thought to turn the implicit del e into something else (and change 
PEP3110),
but then I saw that the error can not delete variable referenced in nested 
scope is actually a limitation of the interpreter that is easy to remove.

I still don't understand. The example doesn't, and shouldn't, use true

Retro, the code is correct as it stands.  Floor division is intended
(int // int -- int).  I think you've misunderstood true division where

[issue4617] SyntaxError when free variable name is also an exception target

2008-12-12 Thread Phillip J. Eby

Phillip J. Eby p...@telecommunity.com added the comment:

I could argue either way on this one; it's true that deleting a
nested-scope variable is sometimes desirable, but it also seems to me
like closing over an except: variable is a Potentially Bad Idea.

In neither case, however, do I think it's appropriate to drop the
temporary nature of the variable.  I could perhaps get behind resetting
the variable to None instead of deleting it, but of course the PEP would
need changing.  There's also a question of whether we should do the same
thing with with ... as variables.

(Btw, I'm not sure why this one's assigned to me; ISTM I might have
proposed the current except/as GC semantics, but I'm not familiar with
the actual implementation in 2.6 or 3.0)

[issue4650] getopt need re-factor...

2008-12-12 Thread Wang Chun

New submission from Wang Chun yaohua2...@gmail.com:

I created #4629 a couple of days ago. And besides that issue, for Python 
3.x, I guess we can remove getopt.error since Python 3.x does not have to 
backward compatible with Python 2.x. And another issue is, GetoptError 
does not render right error message with unicode_literals enabled in 
Python 2.6.

[issue4652] IDLE does not work with Unicode

2008-12-12 Thread Aki Wakabayashi

New submission from Aki Wakabayashi zzyzx2...@gmail.com:

I have installed python 3.0 on Ubuntu 8.10 yesterday and played around
with the new unicode features and had no problems with Japanese
characters(both in interactive and script mode). However, after
rebooting, IDLE will no longer let me input any Japanese characters.
(I have it set to UFT-8, if it makes any difference anymore)

The terminal works fine. It lets me input Japanese and runs commands
correctly.

So I used gedit and saved a simple print(Hello(in Japanese chars)),
and run it with IDLE 3.0 but I get a blank line . 

(Can I also make sure that I'm opening IDLE correctly? This is how I do it:
1)Open Terminal
2)~$ Python.3.0
3) input idlelib.idle 

Thank You in advance.

[issue4653] Patch to fix typos for Py3K

2008-12-12 Thread Johnny Lee

New submission from Johnny Lee typo...@gmail.com:

I ran my typo.pl perl script that locates possible C/C++ typos.

I found four that looked valid.

Two of the typos were in the Python directory {pythonrun.c, 
dynload_win.c}, two were in PC/bdist_wininst {install.c, extract.c}.

Python/dynload_win.c:
Win32 API FormatMessageW() expects the 6th parameter to be the count of 
characters, NOT the count of bytes.

Python/pythonrun.c:
The source code contains if (ferr != NULL || ferr != Py_None). This 
does not work as expected - if ferr == NULL, then the second part of 
the if expression will succeed. Look at the code handling fout about 8 
lines up to see the correct code.

PC/bdist_wininst/extract.c:
Win32 API CreateFileMapping returns NULL on error, not 
INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE.

PC/bdist_wininst/install.c:
Win32 API CreateFileMapping returns NULL on error, not 
INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE.
