Re: Thread handling issue
Basically there can be quite a big job to do based on the user selection and I've pipelined it so after the user selects the output location the next job can get started so long as the first job (preparing the data) has been running for 5 or so seconds roughly. Its just a lot nicer to have this done by the time the user has selected an output folder so the main job can start instantly. Of course the user can kill the main job too and go back to the user input so I need to be able to kill the threads anyway. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

I could set it back but then any other threads might have been busy and not seen it while the flag was on. The thread goes through the selection and does a few quick server calls for each one building up a data file. I guess as the server calls are quite fast the thread would be able to check flags quite often unless it's getting time- outs or something. The threads don't pass anything back they're passed a reference to a data object which is constructed before the thread starts. The thread makes updates to the data object and sets a complete attribute flag in the object before finishing. Well a lot depends on how you're doing things. (ie It Depends). You could generate an event for each thread so a second thread started while the first was running down wouldn't cause confusion. It's not clear whether the data object is common to all threads -- in which case you need to make sure you're locking etc. -- or is a new instance for each thread. I did try a couple of passes at a code-sketch, but there are too many unknowns to do justice to it. Basically, have the thread poll an event as it moves through. Have the UI set the event and join to the existing thread (ie wait for it to finish) and then fire off a new one. Or -- if the data items are independent -- fire off the new one regardless and let the old one die when it sees its event, assuming that the data object it's populating is disposable. TJG Yea currently I create a new data object for each thread. I could make it a bit smarter and if the user goes back makes a change I could re-use the old data object and modify it but currently I'm not going to worry about that. I think I'll wait for the user to actually make a change after cancelling the output selection, in case they go straight back without making changes. If they make a change I think I'll try what you suggested and send off a new thread, and send an event to the previous thread. Would this mean I'd need to use wx.lib.newevent.NewCommandEvent() to get a new event for each thread I create? and I'd have to pass the second return value from that, the event binder to the thread to bind to a clean up and exit method? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

I realize that I was confused by the lexical form of the not in operator : it is made by juxtaposing two other operators. Operators composed from two other operators exist, for instance != but the two cannot be separated, for instance 2 ! = 3 is not a valid expression. Said in another way, in Python syntax, usually a lexically juxtaposed operator is seen as a whole. This is not the case for an operator such as is not or not in because for example 2 is not 3 is a valid statement.

I should, yes, I confess ;) In my defense, I must tell that Python document reference here : http://docs.python.org/reference/expressions.html#summary has an anti-iconic way to display the order precedence. If an operator OP1 has higher precedence than an operator OP2 , it means that, at evaluation time, you execute OP1 FIRST and operator OP2 later. So, its seems very natural to present FIRST operator with stronger precedence. So, if you iconically present this material in a tabular display, you present FIRST (ie at the top because usually we process tabular material starting on the upper part) what you need to calculate FIRST and, again, you present at the TOP the HIGHer precedence and at the BOTTOM the LOWer precedence. Documentations usually provide the table in this order (higher to lower), cf. the table in KR book for C programing language or here for the C++ PL : http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/operator_precedence or again there for the Java PL : http://download.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java/nutsandbolts/operators.html -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: GUIs - A Modest Proposal
On the subject of the gui discussion mentioned here last year, which you get lead to if you read around in the pyjamas docs, I have to admit, since I know both development types (gwt, wx, qt) and (django, jquery), I have to state the fact, that pyjamas should also consider bonding with native javascript library developments. Excuse me if I accidentaly go a bit off track, but I guessed, I might bring in my thoughts (but I hope, not to get emotional responses which made this thread a bit hard to follow in the end) The interchange between fixed sized GUI applications and browsing technology as a whole could for example get very interesting for django development, if javascript operated functions would be taken over by native python. I was just looking at pyquery, a python implementation of jquery, which could easily backbone jquery itself on the python end. Now this is not pyjamas' task, but the pyjs compiler could be used, so that jquery code could be written for both languages. Since jquery DOM interfacing is way easier, and hot fixes can be made by javascript development teams, GUI elements of jquery libraries could be integrated into the application. While the functionality of the UI therefore still is GUI based in terms of fixed applications, like pyjamas desktop, concurrent efforts could take place from the so called web-development gui layouts. On that front, a lot of talented coders exist in younger generations, which would have the ability to develop the web frontend in closer relation to the web-designers, mainting the key issues for the world-wide-web: design, speed and small loading time. Long story short: if you could write jquery in python which actually compiles into jquery in javascript, and even runs on python itself, you could deploy widgets natively from python in django, and dont have to leave python to improve webapplications with its native strengths. You can free yourself up pretty soon from having too much problems with ui. the designer can do that. You focus on datasets, server-client-api, or you can expose one of your pyjamas widgets as jquery plugin integrating validation of data server and clientside. You can still develop a control application or other integrated software parts natively with pyjamas desktop, knowing the web uses correct code. Of course that depends on how much overhead pyjamas libraries have if you only take a piece of it out, like a richtext element or a fully bloated editor, but even then, internally you load the app anyway up front, externally the user transitions from being a human guest to being a system user only in certain occasions.

[issue13060] allow other rounding modes in round()
Mark Dickinson dicki...@gmail.com added the comment: I'm warming to this idea. We already have several round-to-integer functions (but not round-to-an-arbitrary-number-of-decimal-places) available in the math module (under the names floor, ceil and trunc). This *does* seem to be a common need, and it's easy to get roll-your-own implementations wrong (e.g., check what the implementation in msg145140 does for negative numbers). I suspect that once we get more people shifting to py3k we're going to get more complaints about round doing round-half-to-even. Rather than expanding the signature of round, it might be worth considering a new math-module function (with name to be determined) that does round-half-up for floats. We might later extend it to other types in the same way as is currently done for floor and ceil (with __floor__ and __ceil__ magic methods); introduction of such magic methods would probably require a PEP though. At issue: *which* round-half-up function do we want? The one that rounds halfway cases away from zero (what Wikipedia calls Round half away from zero), or the one that rounds halfway cases towards +infinity? I'm inclined towards the former. I don't think it's worth implementing both. I guess we should follow floor / ceil's lead of returning integer output for float input in the case where number of places to round to isn't given (though personally I would have been happier if floor / ceil had continued to return float output for float input, as in Python 2.x). -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue13060 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

If you can, try strace or instrument the code (perror() should be enough) to see why it's failing. pthread_setspecific() can fail with: - EINVAL, if the TLS key is invalid (which would be strange since we call pthread_key_delete()/pthread_key_create() just before) - or ENOMEM, if you run out of memory/address space The later seems much more likely (e.g. if many child processes and subinterpreters are created).

New submission from Valery Khamenya khame...@gmail.com: Explanation from dablitz's comment at https://bugs.pypy.org/issue867 : quote urllib2 in the stdlib leaks fd's if an exception is raised while opening a connection. The issue occurs due to a socket being opened then an exception being raised before an object with the socket is returned, leaving no way to explicitly close the object. On cpython this would not be an issue as the object would lose all references almost immediately however it lingers around with a proper GC causing FD's to build up if the same condition happens repeatedly (eg a loop/web crawling) The file enclosed is a script to generate the leakage, to run invok it as follows python leak.py pypy should start leaking FD's and can be see in /proc/pid of leak.py/fd /quote Related issues: http://bugs.python.org/issue3066 http://bugs.python.org/issue1208304 http://bugs.python.org/issue1601399 -- components: IO, Library (Lib) files: leak.py messages: 145166 nosy: Valery.Khamenya priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: FD leak in urllib2 type: resource usage versions: Python 2.7 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file23344/leak.py ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue13131 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Take a look to this example: k.py: def f(): a,b,c = 1,2 Traceback (most recent call last): File stdin, line 1, in module File k.py, line 2, in f a,b,c = 1,2 ValueError: need more than 2 values to unpack k.py: def f(): # blah a,b = 1,2 Traceback (most recent call last): File stdin, line 1, in module File k.py, line 2, in f # blah ValueError: need more than 2 values to unpack For some reason I always had the opposite problem (i.e. after a reload the traceback was still showing the original code, and not the new one), while IIUC you are saying that it shows the new code even if the module is not reloaded. I tried your code and indeed it does what you say, so either I am mistaken and I've been misreading the tracebacks, or this changed from 2.6 to 2.7, or in some cases even the behavior (I think) I observed might happen.

[issue11812] transient socket failure to connect to 'localhost'
Charles-François Natali neolo...@free.fr added the comment: Attached patch reads the name of the server socket instead of using HOST or 'localhost'. By the way, why do we use 'localhost' instead of '127.0.0.1' for support.HOST? '127.0.0.1' doesn't depend on the DNS configuration of the host (especially its hosts file, even Windows has such file). This might be a good idea. Apparently, Windows 7 doesn't use its hosts file (yes, it does have one) to resolve 'localhost', but its DNS resolver, see http://serverfault.com/questions/4689/windows-7-localhost-name-resolution-is-handled-within-dns-itself-why Depending on the DNS setup, it could lead to a latency which might explain such failures. Seems a clear race condition. The code looks correct: a threading.Event is set by the server once it called listen(), point at which incoming connections should be queued (SYN/ACK is sent before accept()). So I'd bet either on resolution delay (on Unix /etc/nsswitch.conf), or an overloaded machine. -- nosy: +neologix ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue11812 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue13135] Using type() as a constructor doesn't support new class keyword arguments
New submission from Marty Alchin ma...@martyalchin.com: PEP 3115 introduced keyword arguments to class definitions and changed metaclasses to use them instead. Unfortunately, `type()` doesn't seem to have been updated to accept those keyword arguments as well. What this amounts to is that using `type()` as a constructor can no longer fully replicate the behavior of a class definition. Therefore, classes that use keyword arguments can't be created dynamically. I would attempt a patch, but I don't have a development environment capable of compiling Python, so I wouldn't have any chance to test it. -- messages: 145190 nosy: gulopine priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Using type() as a constructor doesn't support new class keyword arguments type: feature request ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue13135 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue13133] FD leaks in ZipFile.read(), ZipFile.extract() and also using explicit arc_member.close()
Amaury Forgeot d'Arc amaur...@gmail.com added the comment: Yes, in 2.7 many parts of the stdlib relies on reference counting to close files. But 3.2 introduced a ResourceWarning which is emitted (in debug mode) each time a __del__ closes a valuable resource like a file or a socket. This was done exactly for this reason - help other implementations with a different garbage collector. Now Lib/zipfile.py is probably much more gc-friendly: see how it uses a new member close_fileobj, and the with statement in ZipFile.read(). PyPy will benefit of this when it migrates to 3.2; meanwhile, you could apply the same changes in pypy's own copy of zipfile.py. -- nosy: +amaury.forgeotdarc resolution: - out of date status: open - pending ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue13133 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

This is more of an optimized runtime library problem than code optimization problem. I tested using memchr() when writing those naive loops. memchr() is mentioned in another issue, #13134. Yeah, this conversation is really more relevant to issue13134, but I will reply to these here anyway memchr() is inlined by the compiler just like the direct loop I don't think so. If you look at the glibc's memchr() implementation, it's a sophisticated routine, not a trivial loop. Perhaps you're thinking about memcpy(). Without link-time optimization enabled, I doubt the toolchain can inline 'memchr' in the traditional sense (i.e. inserting the body of the routine inline). Even if it could, the inline heuristics would most likely choose not to. I don't think we use LTO with GCC, but I think we might with VC++. GCC does something else called builtin folding that is more likely. For example, 'memchr (bca, 'c', 3)' gets replace with instructions to compute a pointer index into bca. This won't happen in this case because all of the 'memchr' arguments are all variable. and the generated code for the direct version is often easier to optimize for the compiler than the memchr() one, since it receives more knowledge about the used data types. ?? Data types are fixed in the memchr() definition, there's no knowledge to be gained by inlining. I think what Marc-Andre is alluding to is that the first parameter of 'memchr' is 'void *' which could (in theory) limit optimization opportunities. Where as if it knew that the data being searched is a 'char *' or something it could take advantage of that. -- nosy: +meador.inge ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue13136 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Martin v. Löwis mar...@v.loewis.de added the comment: Marc-Andre: gcc will normally not unroll loops, unless -funroll-loops is given on the command line. Then, it will unroll many loops, and do so with 8 iterations per outer loop. This typically causes significant code bloat, which is why unrolling is normally disabled and left to the programmer. For those who want to experiment with this, I attach a C file with just the code in question. Compile this with your favorite compiler settings, and see what the compile generates. clang, on an x64 system, compiles the original loop into LBB0_2: ## =This Inner Loop Header: Depth=1 movzbl (%rdi), %eax movw%ax, (%rdx) incq%rdi addq$2, %rdx decq%rsi jne LBB0_2 and the unrolled loop into LBB1_2: ## %.lr.ph6 ## =This Inner Loop Header: Depth=1 movzbl (%rdi,%rcx), %r8d movw%r8w, (%rdx) movzbl 1(%rdi,%rcx), %r8d movw%r8w, 2(%rdx) movzbl 2(%rdi,%rcx), %r8d movw%r8w, 4(%rdx) movzbl 3(%rdi,%rcx), %r8d movw%r8w, 6(%rdx) addq$8, %rdx addq$4, %rcx cmpq%rax, %rcx jl LBB1_2 -- nosy: +loewis Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file23353/unroll.c ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue13136 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
