[issue5949] IMAP4_SSL spin because of SSLSocket.suppress_ragged_eofs
Scott Dial sc...@scottdial.com added the comment: It would seem the logical patch would be to return the line when the empty string is returned. This would fall in line with the behavior of other objects with a readline() in python. In following with that, the patch I have attached returns a truncated line. Therein, the _get_line() implementation needs to actually check for the correct termination of the line (it's arguably a bug as it is, just chucking away the last two characters blindly). -- keywords: +patch nosy: +scott.dial Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file15012/imaplib-r75166.patch ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue5949 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Josh Cogliati jjcogliati...@yahoo.com added the comment:
Thank you for telling me about that function. I read the documentation
on hex() and never realized that there was a second instance method
float.hex().
I am curious why the proper way to turn a number into hex is the following:
import types
def to_hex(a):
if type(a) == type(0.0):
return a.hex()
elif type(a) == type(1):
return hex(a)
else:
raise TypeError('Must be int or float')
As in why does neither int.hex() or hex(float) work?
Thank you.

[issue6992] PEP 314 inconsistency (authors/author/maintainer)
Dariusz Suchojad ds...@users.sourceforge.net added the comment: Hello, funny the bug report should surface in the very same time I was looking for a way to put 2 authors in the 'author' field :-) [Antoine Pitrou (pitrou)] It is still unknown what use case the new author scheme would solve that the old one doesn't I believe I have such a use case. I'm in the middle of taking over a Python package and I would like to give credits to the original author who passed the development over to me. You see, *he is* the author of 95% of the code, it seems unfair to replace his name with my own. I thought I could simply use a list of authors but the 'author' field hasn't been designed for it. [Antoine Pitrou (pitrou)] (does someone want the authorfield to be machine parsable? for what purpose?), I'm just a regular user and when I see a field described as a 'meta' one then I'm actually not wondering how any future tools will take advantage of it. It being a 'meta' I understand it's mostly meant to be interpreted by machines which, funnily enough, seems to be just to the contrary of what you say. Of course one can put anything they wish into 'author', it could even be CSV or XML but that's not the point, the point is that some things simply have two and more authors and inserting the mailing list isn't exactly the same. Sure, I can simply put it all in an AUTHORS file but again it's not the same, what would be the 'author' field for then? If someone were to ask me then I'd say there should only be the 'author' and 'contributor' fields which both have a clear meaning in open-source world, accepting both a string and a list/tuple in format of 'Foo Bar foo...@example.com' which makes for easy parsing and other fields discussed here should be deprecated. No one likes type checking but at least it would provide backwards-compat for the most widely used field. Just my 2c. author = 'Foo Bar foo...@example.com' author = ['Foo Bar foo...@example.com', 'Baz Frobble bazfrob...@example.com'] But hey, I still very much like distutils :-) and I understand all the backwards-compatibility concerns, but as a user I can clearly see a need for /some/ way to specify more than one author without having to wonder what will any not-yet-written tool do with this or any other meta field. -- nosy: +dsuch ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue6992 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue7029] Improve pybench
New submission from Kristján Valur Jónsson krist...@ccpgames.com: The attached patch contains suggested fixes to pybench.py: 1) add a processtime timer for windows 2) fix a bug in timer selection: timer wasn't put in 'self' 3) Collect 'gross' times for each round 4) show statistics for per-round sums, both for sum of adjusted times for each round, and 'gross' time per round. The last one is important. Traditionally, the focus would be on individual tests. The series of individual timings for each test would be examined, min and afverage found. These minima and averages would then be summed up to get a total time. These results are very noisy. In addition, the sum of individual minima is not a linear operator that has any meaning and is thus extremely noisy. Looking at the minimum and average of the sum is a much stabler indication of total benchmark performance. Another thing that I found when working with this, is that using calibration significantly adds to noise and can produce incorrect results. It adds a level of non-linearity to the results that can appear very strange. Typically the 'overhead' is so low that we should consider skipping the calibration. The purpose of the benchmark must be to measure the performance of python in context. The meaning of individual operations in isolation are pretty meaningless. Although I didn't change the default number of calibration runs from 10, I would suggest documenting that it may be useful to turn it to 0 to increase predictability and get numbers indicative of real performance. -- components: Demos and Tools files: pybench.patch keywords: patch messages: 93416 nosy: krisvale severity: normal status: open title: Improve pybench type: behavior versions: Python 2.7 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file15016/pybench.patch ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue7029 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

The attached patch contains suggested fixes to pybench.py: 1) add a processtime timer for windows I'm not sure why you added this: the systimes.py module already has a ctypes wrapper for kernel32.GetProcessTimes() ?! All you have to do is use this command line option to enable it: --timer systimes.processtime 2) fix a bug in timer selection: timer wasn't put in 'self' Thanks for spotting this one. 3) Collect 'gross' times for each round I'm assuming that gross = test time + overhead. Is that right ? I like the idea, but not the implementation :-) Don't like my own pybench statistics implementation much either.

In addition, the sum of individual minima is not a linear operator that has any meaning and is thus extremely noisy.

Although I didn't change the default number of calibration runs from 10, I would suggest documenting that it may be useful to turn it to 0 to increase predictability and get numbers indicative of real performance. The idea behind the calibration is to hide away the overhead of setting up the test. You're right, that nowadays the tests run so fast, that the calibration causes more noise than do good. This is due to the fact that the number of iteration rounds and test packs were chosen in 2006. Back then, both Python and the CPUs were a lot slower. OTOH, timers have not gotten a lot more accurate. As a result, the measurements of pybench on todays machines have far more noise than they did in 2006. The only way to resolve this is to adjust all tests - something which I also plan to do in time for Python 2.7. -- nosy: +lemburg ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue7029 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

I didn't realize that it was a special helper sibling-module to pybench. 3) 'gross', yes, as opposed to 'net'. The total time of each round. For timers which don't update frequently, such as GetProcessTimes(), summing up many small contributions compounds the error (in this case, +- 10ms per measurement). Can you be more specific about what it is that you don't like? About the calibration: I ran into problems where I was tuning the memory allocator. I put HeapAlloc in place of malloc() and found a consistent 10% performance degradation, even when using the LFH. I was puzzled by this until I turned off calibration and the effect went away. The calibration technique is not a bad idea, but it would be helpful, when one is comparing runs, to be able to keep the calibration times of the previous run, so as not to introduce a random element into the comparison. Alternatively, explain that when doing successive tests, the lowest variance in the result is to be expeced with -C 0. So, how can I improve this? -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue7029 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue7032] Make assertMultilineEqual default for unicode string comparison in
New submission from Michael Foord mich...@voidspace.org.uk: unittest.TestCase.assertEqual uses the new type equality functions for comparing containers. In Python 2.7 assertMultilineEqual should be the default comparison method for unicode strings and in Python 3.2 for comparing strings. assertMultilineEqual should only use difflib for showing differences for strings above a certain length. (For short strings the extra output is actually more confusing than helpful.) -- assignee: michael.foord messages: 93424 nosy: michael.foord severity: normal status: open title: Make assertMultilineEqual default for unicode string comparison in versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.2 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue7032 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue6958] Add Python command line flags to configure logging
Vinay Sajip vinay_sa...@yahoo.co.uk added the comment: Ok. I think it's a reasonable request, but I can see that implementing it naively without some further thought will lead to (justifiable) complaints from some users that the behaviour is contradictory or unintuitive in terms of which configuration wins in the event of ambiguity. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue6958 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue7028] hex function should work with floats
Josh Cogliati jjcogliati...@yahoo.com added the comment: Okay. Thank you. I looked at the issue 3008 discussion. I see why hex() was not changed. Can int.hex() and int.fromhex() be added for symmetry? I am willing to work on the patch, it just might be a bit. As well, either way, it might be useful for the documentation for hex() to mention float.hex().
