 Thank you! This is the whole reason I tried using a class method in the first 
 place. I was getting an error that said my move method only takes one 
 argument, but I was passing in two.

 But if I make the super call as super().move(), how does that work? The move 
 method in the superclass takes an argument, and if I just do super().move(), 
 isn't it the subclass that's getting passed to it?

The self that gets passed into the superclass.move() or the
subclass.move() is the exact same object in either case.  There is no
up-casting (or any casting at all, for that matter) in Python.

 How does the superclass move method know what 'self' is if it doesn't get 
 passed to it as I did originally?

super() called without arguments is equivalent to super(class this
method was defined in, self) -- it collects the value of self from
the current stack frame.  So self is able to be passed in because the
super object implicitly knows what self is.

Ian

The instance of the subclass (i.e. what Pawn.move() considers `self`)
gets passed to it.

 How does the superclass move method know what 'self' is if it doesn't get 
 passed to it as I did originally?

Oh, but it does get passed, just implicitly. `super()` basically grabs
`self` magically from its caller, and uses it to bind method calls on
the magical object returned by `super()`.

`super().move()` ends up being, in this particular case, equivalent to:
ChessPiece.move(self)
which is incidentally how one would write this without using super().

Here is a useful[1] identity to ponder:
x.y(z) === type(x).y(x, z)

 If you change the terminology, no one will understand you unless you

 Another way of saying that an operator is left-associative is that its
 parse tree is a left-tree, i.e. a complete tree where each right child
 is a leaf.
 For instance, (use a monospaced font)
    1 + 2 + 3 + 4
 gives you this left-tree:

      +   4
    +   3
   1 2
 while 1**2**3**4
 gives you this right-tree:

 1    **

The same way you do, I guess. An operand that has operators on both 
sides is operand of the operator of higher precedence.

For instance, in
  3 * 4 + 6
4 is operand of * but not of +.
Indeed, the operands of + are 3*4 and 6.

Python - CGI-BIN - Apache Timeout Problem

2012-03-02 Thread Sean Cavanaugh (scavanau)
Hello List,

 

Would appreciate some insight/help, ran out of ideas...

 

BRIEF OVERVIEW:

 

I am trying to create a simple webserver gui wrapper for a set of
scripts I developed to test some of our firewalls here at Cisco.  Being
that the total amount of engineer that will ever probably use this is 4
people and my limited python experience I just decided to do a quick
cgi-bin solution.  I control the machine with the webserver on em0 where
I do my fw testing on em1/em2.

 

Browser goes to http://webserver/main.py- main.py executes a
script-tests.py -test.py imports my engine v6tester_main.py which is a
series of functions I wrote. tests.py kicks of whatever test main.py
wanted.  

 

THE PROBLEM:

 

When I execute the scripts from the command line (#python main.py) it
generates it fine (albeit slowly), it prints all the html code out
including the script.  The 'core' part of the script dumbed down to the
lowest level is-

 

proc = subprocess.Popen(['/usr/local/bin/python', 'tests.py'],
stdout=subprocess.PIPE)

output = proc.stdout.read()

print output

proc.stdout.close()

 

When I open main.py and execute the script it just hangs... it seems to
execute the script (I see pcap fires on the interface that I am testing
on the firewall) but its not executing correctly... or loading the
entire webpage...the webpage keeps chugging along and eventually gives
me an error timeout.

 

I know it's not a permissions issue or setup issue b/c I did a proof of
concept where I just fired one simple pcap and it works fine (reported
back just like it would if I ran it on the command line).. it has
something to do with either the amount of prints out the script is
doing, or the timing.  I see no problems except the timeout (nothing in
logs: /var/log/http-error.log).  My script takes about 8 secounds to
run.  It does use threading but I wouldn't think that would mess it up.

 

BTW: I posted here if this helps anyone:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9524758/cgi-bin-timing-timeout-on-fre
ebsd-apache22

 

 

Thanks in advance for any ideas.  I can include the whole main.py if
that would help.

The problem was another subtle bug in the current example:
self.hi_there[text] = Hello,

The spurious comma at the end makes the value of the 'text' attribute a 
one-elememt tuple and not just a string. I presume tcl-based tk handles 
that in the manner appropriate for the tcl equivalent. I believe tcl 
uses spaces rather than commas to separate items, so the braces serve as 
'quotes' to indicate that the contents are one item, not three. Removing 
the comma solves the problem.

 The problem was another subtle bug in the current example:
  self.hi_there[text] = Hello,
 
 The spurious comma at the end makes the value of the 'text' attribute a
 one-elememt tuple and not just a string. I presume tcl-based tk handles
 that in the manner appropriate for the tcl equivalent. I believe tcl
 uses spaces rather than commas to separate items, so the braces serve as
 'quotes' to indicate that the contents are one item, not three. Removing
 the comma solves the problem.

That looks like it.  Tcl is the 'LISP of strings'  Composite-object things 
like indexing work on space-separated strings.

RE: Python - CGI-BIN - Apache Timeout Problem

2012-03-02 Thread Sean Cavanaugh (scavanau)
Hey Chris,

Thanks for your quick reply!  I switched my code to-

proc = subprocess.Popen(['/usr/local/bin/python', 'tests.py'], 
stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
out, err = proc.communicate()
print out
proc.stdout.close()

It still dead locked.  Interestingly enough When I did a #python tests.py on 
the command line even that was taking awhile to print out to the command line 
so I decided to restart my webserver... wow from mucking before something must 
have been running in the background still.  I got the script down to 2 seconds 
or so... 

Now it still works but faster when I do #python main.py it generates all the 
text to the command line but the website still hangs when I go to 
http://webserver/main.py... I am not sure what is going wrong... no error in 
the /var/log except for the eventual timeout after a couple minutes goes by.

RE: Python - CGI-BIN - Apache Timeout Problem

2012-03-02 Thread Sean Cavanaugh (scavanau)
Hey All,

So maybe this part is important (after doing some troubleshooting)  hopefully 
not everyone has beers in hand already since its Friday :-) 

The way the code works if you want to send through the firewall (i.e.   
SERVER-FIREWALL-SERVER)  I split the process into two threads.  One is 
listening on the egress, then I send on the ingress.  The main waits until the 
thread finishes (it times out after 2 seconds).  I had to do this b/c scapy 
(the library I used) won't let me send pcaps while I receive them.  This lets 
me see packets on both sides (i.e. did that sort of internet traffic go through 
the firewall).   The reason I think this could be a problem is when I ran a 
test where I sent to the firewall (rather than through it) and my program does 
not need to thread the webserver works fine..   

Suggestions anyone?

Re: Is it necessary to call Tk() when writing a GUI app with Tkinter?

2012-03-02 Thread John Salerno
 After that, you can nest as
 many frames, toplevels, and blah widgets under that root window as you
 so desire. Actually you don't even need a frame, you can pack
 widgets directly into a Toplevel or Tk widget.

This is interesting. I completely understand your point about always calling 
(and using) the instance of Tk as the root. Given that, what is the point of 
creating a Frame object at all? I tried NOT doing it, like you said, and it 
seemed to work fine with my simple example. But is there a benefit to using a 
Frame object to group the widgets together? Or is it cleaner to just use the Tk 
object?

A possible change to decimal.Decimal?

2012-03-02 Thread Jeff Beardsley
HISTORY:  

In using python 2.7.2 for awhile on a web project (apache/wsgi web.py), I 
discovered a problem in using decimal.Decimal.  A short search revealed that 
many other people have been having the problem as well, in their own 
apache/wsgi implementations (django, mostly), but I found no real solutions 
among the posts I read.  So I did some experimentation of my own.

The following code will break unexpectedly on standard python2.7 (and earlier) 
because of the way that isinstance fails after reload() (which is called by 
both of the above web frameworks).

This is the error: TypeError(Cannot convert %r to Decimal % value)

THE TEST CODE

import decimal
from decimal import Decimal

#this works
Decimal(Decimal())

reload(decimal)

#this fails before patching, but works fine afterwards
Decimal(Decimal())


THE SOLUTION:

So, looking into decimal.py I discovered lots if statements using isinstance, 
and have slightly rearranged the code inside __new__() to mostly remove their 
use, and for my purposes totally fixes the problem within wsgi.

I am not an official python dev, so would appreciate it if someone who *IS* 
could just look this over, improve it if necessary, and get it (or some 
variation) submitted into the library.

Re: A possible change to decimal.Decimal?

2012-03-02 Thread Jeff Beardsley
The problem with that though is:  I am not the one calling reload(). That
is actually being called for me by web.py (or django, or some other
framework, take your pick).  More than that, I believe it's called (or
caused, anyway) by something happening in WSGI under apache.  (And I don't
really want to start digging around in there either)

The patch in this case is very limited in scope, and all it inflicts on the
subject code inside of decimal.Decimal.__new__(), is better programming
practices.

 Patching decimal.py to make it work with reload() is probably not going to
 happen.

 What you should be doing is:

  import decimal
  from decimal import Decimal

  reload(decimal)
  Decimal = decimal.Decimal   # (rebind 'Decimal' to the reloaded code)

How do you use the widgets in tkinter.ttk if you want to import tkinter as tk?

2012-03-02 Thread John Salerno
According to the Python docs, the way to use tkinter.ttk is this:

from tkinter import *
from tkinter.ttk import *

But what if I don't like this import method and prefer to do:

import tkinter as tk

How then do I utilize tkinter.ttk using the same name? Or is that not possible? 
Will I have to use to separate names, like this:

import tkinter as tk
import tkinter.ttk as ttk

Is that the only way?

Grr, sounds like a pain if I want to use the new widgets. Does this cause 
conflict with someone who isn't running 8.5, or will they still see the older

I'm tempted just to go back to wxPython. Two sets of widgets in Tkinter is a

 Interestiong idea.  Generators are fully supported so I could do this now.
 So gens would have to be allowed absolutely everywhere lists are allowed (is

No, the former.  Most of the time you never really use a full, naked list 
anyway, generally only for documentation purposes.

I strongly suggest the standard (in math anyway) syntax for set notation.  It

  --Functions that return multiple, but unique, values should return a

This is something that still hasn't really been implemented in PythonV3.

An alternative is to create a named association type, similar to the ABC

simply be a set of these.  Having a compound type would come in handy in 
several other ways too.

 I like this a lot.  Tuples are already implemented internally as lists.

I think, in fact, that the object model could be more unified.  Under such a 
new object model, the worries about having a full library becomes rather 
pointless, as the new model will require a revamping of everything.

 More like a few dollars.  This is really good stuff.  Can I talk you into
 hanging out on the Prothon list now and then, at least until we get the core
 language sorted out?

Haha, a little late, but consider this a restart.

 Haha, a little late, but consider this a restart.

It wasn't til I saw the word Prothon that I scrolled back and saw you
were responding to a thread from 2004.  Prothon was pretty cool in some
ways but I think it's been inactive for a very long time.  I don't see
much point to developing a slightly improved but incompatible
Python-like language anyway though.  Why make superficial changes that
break working code and mentally overload programmers?  Python is a
relatively mature language by now, so it shouldn't be messed with unless
the changes produce drastic benefits, not minor ones.

 I have read (in c.l.py) that in Smalltalk, a Dict is a Set of Associates
 or something similar. I don't know Smalltalk, but I like this idea of a
 Set.

Yeah, I like this too.  I take it from the ABC language.  The thing that's 
relevant (and apropos to Paul Rubin's objection), is that when unifying models, 
you have to decide where the decimal point is from which all the different 
dimensions that the language is encoding and silently tracking can pivot 
around.  The : of a compound is a sort of decimal point.   Then the task is 
finding a formalism in which to define and incorporate all the relavent 
dimensions into one.  The result will be necessarily recursive, revolving 
around the notions of the atomic versus the group and the transition rules 
that govern them.

 With issue1559549 adding a 'name' argument, I'm going to push to have it gain 
 a reasonable default
 __str__ if 'name' is set but nothing else. That patch also contains some 
 helper functions which
 should simplify Eric's patch.

Maybe you’re talking about my first patch?  The latest one does not touch C

[issue14168] minidom behaves differently in 3.3 compared to 3.2

2012-03-02 Thread Vinay Sajip

Vinay Sajip vinay_sa...@yahoo.co.uk added the comment:

The error which prompted this issue was not caused by external code peeking 
into the internals - it was just my toy test script which did that. The error 
came up in Django testing:

So, perhaps there is a missing _ensure_attributes() call somewhere.

[issue14168] minidom behaves differently in 3.3 compared to 3.2

2012-03-02 Thread Vinay Sajip

Vinay Sajip vinay_sa...@yahoo.co.uk added the comment:

Upon inspection, _ensure_attributes() is only called in _get_attributes(), 
setAttributeNode() and _set_attribute_node(). The last of these is only called 
by setAttributeNode(), and it would appear that setAttributeNode() is only 
called if there *are* attributes.

_get_attributes() is only called by writexml().

So, calls to public methods getAttribute(), getAttributeNS() and a few others 
are likely to fail because, if there are no attributes in the XML being 
processed, _ensure_attributes() wouldn't get called.

It looks like a bug to me! ;-)

Line 428 in Python/marshal.c calls pb-bf_releasebuffer() without dec-refing

What about the Lightweight DOM implementation, though? Following Martin's

[issue14173] PyOS_FiniInterupts leaves signal.getsignal segfaulty

2012-03-02 Thread Ferringb

New submission from Ferringb ferri...@gmail.com:

During Py_Finalize (pythonrun.c), it does the following:
1) suppress signal handling PyOs_FiniInterupts
2) clear caches
3) force gc collection; first for objects, then via wiping modules.

The problem is that for unix OSs, Modules/signal.c's PyOs_FiniInterrupts leaves 
itself in a state where its internal Handlers are effectively reset to NULL, 
except the various functions don't properly handle that scenario.

Attached is a test case demonstrating it; it segfaults on every python version 
I've tested (2.4-3.2; haven't tried 3.3).

Since this *only* occurs during the final gc sweep when modules are destroyed, 
its a bit of a pain in the ass to detect that we're in that scenario, and that 
we must not touch signal.getsignal lest it segfault the interp.  That said,

def _SignalModuleUsable():
try:
  signal.signal(signal.SIGUSR1, signal.signal(signal.SIGUSR1, some_handler))
  return True
except (TypeError, AttributeError, SystemError):
  # we were invoked in a module cleanup context.
  return False

does manage to poke the api just right so that it can be detected w/out 
segfaulting the interp.

Finally, note that while folks could point at __del__... its not really at 
fault.  Doing a proper weakref.ref finalizer can trigger the same- the fault is 
signal.c's PyOs_FiniInterrupts leaving the signal module in a bad state.  For 
the testcase, I used __del__ just because it was quicker/less code to do so.

Éric Araujo mer...@netwok.org added the comment:

I think I’ve always understood “lightweight” to mean “minimal”.  xml.dom 
provides minidom, a basic implementation, pulldom, a different implementation, 
and other libraries such as 4Dom are full-fledged implementations.  So 
“lightweight” is not a problem to me (but I acknowledge that it might be 
misleading for other people), especially given that I think that DOM itself is 
not elegant or lightweight (as in “conceptually small”).

Reproduction case is attached and should speak for itself, but the short brief

Tested this on Python 2.7 on OS X, but also grabbed the latest argparse.py from

[issue14176] Fix unicode literals (for PEP 414)

2012-03-02 Thread Jean-Michel Fauth

New submission from Jean-Michel Fauth wxjmfa...@gmail.com:

Now, that the PEP 414 has been accepted, I can
only strongly recommend to fix the problem
of unicode literals as a partial workaround.

 print u'abcœé€'
abcé
 

If these six characters are not rendered correctly, you
shoud read:
LATIN SMALL LETTER A
LATIN SMALL LETTER B
LATIN SMALL LETTER C
LATIN SMALL LIGATURE OE
LATIN SMALL LETTER E WITH ACUTE
EURO SIGN

It is not necessary to give here the list of
the numerous libs that do not understand
u'unicode literals' as shown above.

(I wrote all my Py2 code in a u'unicode mode',
and I know how hard it is to have to select
between the u'' or unicode() variants.

Face it. Python has never worked [*], Python does
not work, Python will never work. More important,
it is more than clear to me, there is no willingness
to solve this issue. (The holy compatibilty with not
working code).

[*] Except the pure ASCII serie (Py 1.5) and the
Python 3[0,1,2] serie.

No offense. I'm pretty sure the creator of this
PEP is not even able to type on his machine the
list of the 42 characters supposed to be available
it the typographies (plural) used by the different
countries speaking French.
The whole free/open source software disaster in all
its splendor.

Regards.

[issue10181] Problems with Py_buffer management in memoryobject.c (and elsewhere?)

2012-03-02 Thread Nick Coghlan

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

It occurs to me that one thing that *could* be backported to early versions are 
some of the documentation improvements on how to correctly handle the lifecycle 
of fields in Py_buffer. That gets messy though because memoryview doesn't 
behave nicely in those versions, so we'd be violating our own guidelines.

Perhaps the relevant sections should be updated with a reference saying that 
the semantics have been cleaned up in 3.3, and if in doubt, try to follow the 
3.3 documentation?

[issue4080] unittest: display time of each test case

2012-03-02 Thread Ezio Melotti

Ezio Melotti ezio.melo...@gmail.com added the comment:

Because it looks like line noise and doesn't provide an useful information in 
most of the cases (at least for me), see e.g.:

+   test_format (__main__.MyTestCase) ... [0.000612s] skipped 'not supported in 
this library version'
+   test_nothing (__main__.MyTestCase) ... [0.000486s] skipped 'demonstrating 
skipping'
+   test_windows_support (__main__.MyTestCase) ... [0.90s] skipped 
'requires Windows'

It might still be useful to find the slowest test(s), or for test suites that 
take a long time (so I'm not opposed to having it as an option that can be 
enabled if needed), but for most of the tests it will just show an almost 
meaningless fraction of second.

[issue14170] print unicode string error in win8 cmd console

2012-03-02 Thread STINNER Victor

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

It looks like a duplicate of the issue #11395 which has been fixed in
Python 3.2.1, but not backported to Python 2.7. Can you please try
your program with Python 3.2.1? And maybe also attach the whole test
script?

[issue4080] unittest: display time used by each test case

2012-03-02 Thread Éric Araujo

Éric Araujo mer...@netwok.org added the comment:

Also, when you’re tracking down slow tests, you may want to run your tests with 
the time needed by each test file and then each test method.

Nite that I don’t know of a way to have unittest print each test file to stdout 
now (i.e. a level of verbosity between “just one dot” and “each method”).

[issue11379] Remove lightweight from minidom description

2012-03-02 Thread Éric Araujo

Éric Araujo mer...@netwok.org added the comment:

Right, patch for 3.2.  Also edited the module docstring (info taken from the 
docstring of xml.dom).  BTW I really think we could have avoided some verbosity 
by adding the recommendation to use xml.etree in the first paragraph of 
Doc/library/xml.dom.minidom.rst.

[issue4080] unittest: display time used by each test case

2012-03-02 Thread Pawel Prokop

Pawel Prokop pa...@uek.krakow.pl added the comment:

I agree with Ezio, 
this feature should have an option to enable/disable.

Anyway, I use it in different way.

Since 2008, I've used this feature for performance comparision, whether some 
implementation changes in application code did not slow down application. Tests 
run after each commit. I compare execution time of particular test before and 
after commit.

With additional scripts, I create metrics and charts using gnuplot to visualize 
how execution time of each test changed during the development.
I can ensure the performance stability of the application.

[issue14178] Failing tests for ElementTree

2012-03-02 Thread Stefan Behnel

New submission from Stefan Behnel sco...@users.sourceforge.net:

These are tests from lxml's ET compatibility test suite that now fail in 
ElementTree:

def test_delslice_step(self):
Element = self.etree.Element
SubElement = self.etree.SubElement

a = Element('a')
b = SubElement(a, 'b')
c = SubElement(a, 'c')
d = SubElement(a, 'd')
e = SubElement(a, 'e')

del a[1::2]
self.assertEquals(
[b, d],
list(a))

def test_delslice_step_negative(self):
Element = self.etree.Element
SubElement = self.etree.SubElement

a = Element('a')
b = SubElement(a, 'b')
c = SubElement(a, 'c')
d = SubElement(a, 'd')
e = SubElement(a, 'e')

del a[::-1]
self.assertEquals(
[],
list(a))

def test_delslice_step_negative2(self):
Element = self.etree.Element
SubElement = self.etree.SubElement

a = Element('a')
b = SubElement(a, 'b')
c = SubElement(a, 'c')
d = SubElement(a, 'd')
e = SubElement(a, 'e')

del a[::-2]
self.assertEquals(
[b, d],
list(a))

The error messages go like this:

del a[1::2]
ValueError: attempt to assign sequence of size 0 to extended slice of size 2
del a[::-1]
ValueError: attempt to assign sequence of size 0 to extended slice of size 4
del a[::-2]
ValueError: attempt to assign sequence of size 0 to extended slice of size 2


Additionally, I get this error:

self.assertNotEquals(None, e.code)
AttributeError: 'ParseError' object has no attribute 'code'

for this test:

required_versions_ET['test_feed_parser_error_position'] = (1,3)
def test_feed_parser_error_position(self):
ParseError = self.etree.ParseError
parser = self.etree.XMLParser()
try:
parser.close()
except ParseError:
e = sys.exc_info()[1]
self.assertNotEquals(None, e.code)
self.assertNotEquals(0, e.code)
self.assert_(isinstance(e.position, tuple))
self.assert_(e.position = (0, 0))

[issue4773] HTTPMessage not documented and has inconsistent API across 2.6/3.0

2012-03-02 Thread Joel Verhagen

Joel Verhagen joel.verha...@gmail.com added the comment:

There is a difference in what HTTPResponse.getheaders() returns.

Python 2.7.2 (default, Jun 12 2011, 14:24:46) [MSC v.1500 64 bit (AMD64)] on 
win32
Type help, copyright, credits or license for more information.
 import httplib
 c = httplib.HTTPConnection('www.joelverhagen.com')
 c.request('GET', '/sandbox/tests/cookies.php')
 c.getresponse().getheaders()
[('content-length', '0'), ('set-cookie', 'test_cookie1=foobar; expires=Fri, 
02-Mar-2012 16:54:15 GMT, test_cookie2=barfoo; expires=Fri, 02-Mar-2012 
16:54:15 GMT'), ('vary', 'Accept-Encoding'), ('server', 'Apache'), ('date', 
'Fri, 02 Mar 2012 16:53:15 GMT'), ('content-type', 'text/html')]

Python 3.2.2 (default, Sep  4 2011, 09:07:29) [MSC v.1500 64 bit (AMD64)] on 
win32
Type help, copyright, credits or license for more information.
 from http import client
 c = client.HTTPConnection('www.joelverhagen.com')
 c.request('GET', '/sandbox/tests/cookies.php')
 c.getresponse().getheaders()
[('Date', 'Fri, 02 Mar 2012 16:56:40 GMT'), ('Server', 'Apache'), 
('Set-Cookie', 'test_cookie1=foobar; expires=Fri, 02-Mar-2012 16:57:40 GMT'), 
('Set-Cookie', 'test_cookie2=barfoo; expires=Fri, 02-Mar-2012 16:57:40 GMT'), 
('Vary', 'Accept-Encoding'), ('Content-Length', '0'), ('Content-Type', 
'text/html')]

As you can see, in 2.7.2 HTTPResponse.getheaders() in 2.7.2 joins headers with 
the same name by , . In 3.2.2, the headers are kept separate and two or more 
2-tuples.

This causes problems if you convert the list of 2-tuples to a dict, because the 
keys collide (causing all but one of the values associated the non-unique keys 
to be overwritten).  It looks like this problem is caused by using the email 
header parser (which keeps the keys and values as separate 2-tuples). In Python 
2.7.2, the HTTPMessage.addheader(...) function does the comma-separating.

Is this API change intentional? Should HTTPResponse.getheaders() comma-separate 
the values like the HTTPResponse.getheader(...) function (in both 2.7.2 and 
3.2.2)?

[issue14144] urllib2 HTTPRedirectHandler not forwarding POST data in redirect

2012-03-02 Thread Jay Deiman

Jay Deiman ad...@splitstreams.com added the comment:

Senthil,

The HTTPRedirectHandler is already breaking RFC2616 by it's own admission in 
the code comments (from the source):

# Strictly (according to RFC 2616), 301 or 302 in response
# to a POST MUST NOT cause a redirection without confirmation
# from the user (of urllib2, in this case).  In practice,
# essentially all clients do redirect in this case, so we
# do the same.
# be conciliant with URIs containing a space

I can definitely understand the issue with changing the default behavior to 
redirect the POST data.  However, an added option which leaves the current 
behavior as the default shouldn't hurt.  I'm submitting a new patch file 
(urllib2.py.redirect_option.patch), which will do exactly that.

[issue14176] Fix unicode literals (for PEP 414)

2012-03-02 Thread Jean-Michel Fauth

Jean-Michel Fauth wxjmfa...@gmail.com added the comment:

I deliberately hid the information about the used interactive
interpreter; just to show you the experience of new Python
user. (This is what I'm showing to potential Python devs who
are interested in this tool; I know Python and use it since
v. 1.5.6 as a non computer scientist).

The interactive interpreter was:

Python 2.7.2 (default, Jun 12 2011, 15:08:59) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] on 
win32
Type copyright, credits or license() for more information.
 

In that precise case, it was Windws 7 Pro (Windows 7
Professionnel, in French because of a Swiss French version)
and IDLE is just the IDLE an end user see after a fresh
installation.
I can ensure you, such a behaviour exists / existed on all
Windows versions I used (from Win98, win2000, ...) with all
the Python 2 versions since the unicode introduction.

The technical reasons/aspects: sys.defaultencoding,
non iso-8859-1 chars [#], *non working unicode literals*,
sys.stdout.encoding = 'cp1252' and so on.

[#] For those who do not know, one can not write text
in French with Latin-1.

Please do not take my aggressive (I recognize it), but sometimes
necessary message badly.

IDLE is not the cause, I use here IDLE to show as an example the
disaster of code containing *unicode literals*.

I'm not really happy to see this mess again in Py3.3 [†]; the key
point beeing *unicode literals*.

The Pandora's box is opened.

[†] In fact, I will somehow never see or suffer from it. Decisions
have been taken.

[issue14176] Fix unicode literals (for PEP 414)

2012-03-02 Thread Georg Brandl

Georg Brandl ge...@python.org added the comment:

Well, let me soothe your mind then: in Python 3, '...' and u'...' will be 
absolutely equal, so you won't find any more mess with the changes from PEP 
414.

[issue14176] Fix unicode literals (for PEP 414)

2012-03-02 Thread R. David Murray

R. David Murray rdmur...@bitdance.com added the comment:

Unless I'm misunderstanding, this is a duplicate of issue 1602.

You will note that the problem is *not* with Python (or open source software in 
general), the problem is that Microsoft treats the command line as a second (or 
third, or fourth) class citizen.

[issue6784] byte/unicode pickle incompatibilities between python2 and python3

2012-03-02 Thread Merlijn van Deen

Merlijn van Deen valhall...@gmail.com added the comment:

And a complete patch that implements the tests, the python implementation and 
the C implementation. I'm not completely happy with the code duplication in 
read_string/read_binstring/read_short_binstring C implementation, so that might 
be an improvement (however, there is already a lot of code duplication there at 
the moment).

Again: comments would be very welcome...
