Maybe it is not Python related. Did you get an exception? Can you send a 
full traceback? I suspect that the error comes from your terminal, and 
not Python. Please make sure that your terminal supports UTF-8 encoding. 
Alternatively, try creating a file with this content:



# -*- encoding: UTF-8 -*-
w=u'العربى'

Save it as UTF-8 encoded file test.py (with an UTF-8 compatible 
editor, for example Geany) and run it as a command:



python test.py

If it works then it is sure that the problem is with your terminal. It 
will be an OS limitation, not Python's limitation.


Best,

Firstly, please show the COMPLETE error, including the full traceback. 
Python errors look like (for example):

py x = ord(100)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File stdin, line 1, in module
TypeError: ord() expected string of length 1, but int found


Copy and paste the complete traceback.


Secondly, please describe your environment:

- What operating system and version are you using? Linux, Windows, Mac 
OS, something else? Which version or distro?

- Which console or terminal application? E.g. cmd.exe (Windows), konsole, 
xterm, something else?

- Which shell? E.g. the standard Python interpreter, IDLE, bpython, 
something else?


My guess is that this is not a Python problem, but an issue with your 
console. You should always have your console set to use UTF-8, if 
possible. I expect that your console is set to use a different encoding. 
In that case, see if you can change it to UTF-8. For example, using Gnome 
Terminal on Linux, I can do this:


py w = u'العربى'
py print w
العربى

and it works fine, but if I change the encoding to WINDOWS-1252 using the 
Set character encoding menu command, the terminal will not allow me to 
paste the string into the terminal.

Question on for loop

2013-03-04 Thread newtopython
Hi all,

I'm super new to python, just fyi.

In the piece of code below, secretWord is a string and lettersGuessed is a 
list. I'm trying to find out if ALL the characters of secretWord are included 
in lettersGuessed, even if there are additional values in the lettersGuessed 
list that aren't in secretWord. 

What this code is doing is only checking the first character of secretWord and 
then returning True or False. How do I get it to iterate through ALL of the 
characters of secretWord?

for character in secretWord:
if character not in lettersGuessed:
return True
return False

In fact this code is already doing what you want, but if the second
character, by example, is not in secrectWord it'll jump out of the for and
return. If you want that interact through the all characters and  maybe
count how many them are in the secrectWord, just take of the return there
or do some list comprehension like: [ r for r in secrecWord if r in
lettersGuessed] .

about the indentation of the return True.


Perhaps you have something like:

def has_some_behavior(secretWord, lettersGuessed):
for character in secretWord:
if character not in lettersGuessed:
return True
return False

If so, please copy the whole thing from your code, and explain just how

Hi,
I guess, you are using the built-in IDLE shell with python 2.7 and
this is a specific limitation of its handling of some unicode
characters  (in some builds and OSes - narrow-unicode, Windows, most
likely?) and its specific error message - not the usual python
traceback mentioned in other posts).
If it is viable, using python 3.3 instead would solve this problem for IDLE:

Python 3.3.0 (v3.3.0:bd8afb90ebf2, Sep 29 2012, 10:55:48) [MSC v.1600
32 bit (Intel)] on win32
Type copyright, credits or license() for more information.
 w='العربى'
 w
'العربى'

(note the missing u in unicode literal before the starting quotation
mark, which would be the usual usage in python 3, but python 3.3 also
silently ignores u... for compatibility.)

 w=u'العربى'
 w
'العربى'


If python 2.7 is required, another shell is probably needed (unless I
am missing some option to make IDLE work for this input);
e.g. the following works in pyshell - part of the wxpython GUI library
http://www.wxpython.org/

 w=u'العربى'
 w
u'\u0627\u0644\u0639\u0631\u0628\u0649'
 print w

Different behavior with multiprocessing

2013-03-04 Thread Tomas Kotal
Hi all.

Recently I discovered a strange behavior with multiprocessing library and call 
to function os.system (a different behavior under Linux and Windows to be more 
specific). I have this simple testing script:


import sys
import os
from multiprocessing import Process

def do_fork(cmd):
ret = os.system(cmd)
# print result of call
print ret
os._exit(ret)

if __name__ == __main__:
cmds = [ dir, xy ]

procs = []
for cmd in cmds:
proc = Process(target=do_fork, args=(cmd, ))
proc.start()
procs.append( proc )

for proc in procs:
proc.join()
print exitcode: %d % proc.exitcode

print ok 


This script just starts 2 processes. Each process executes one command in 
system shell and exits setting it's exit code same as exit code of a system 
call. There are 2 commands: dir (which works fine on Windows and Linux) and 
xy (which is supposed to fail under both systems). The strange thing is that 
when I run this script under Windows I get this output:

0
1
exitcode: 0
exitcode: 1
ok

The first 0 and 1 are results of os.system call which are printed from child 
processes. Rest of lines are printed from main process. This is expected output.

But when I run same script on Linux, what I get is this:

0
32512
exitcode: 0
exitcode: 0
ok

Although the second command fails and returns exit code 32512, the exit code 
from process in parent process gives me 0. I tried to change the script to use 
fork() instead of Process but the result was same.

Can anybody explain me what's the problem here?

(I use Python 2.6 on both Windows and Linux machines)

 if character not in lettersGuessed:
 
 return True
 
 return False

assuming a function is being used to pass each letter of the letters guessed 
inside a loop itself that only continues checking if true is returned, then 
that could work.

It is however more work than is needed. 

If you made secretword a list,you could just 

set(secretword)set(lettersguessed) 

and check the result is equal to secretword.

Well the point is not the difference between return values of os.system under 
Windows and Linux.

The point is that I set the exist code of child process with os._exit() which 
works fine on Windows but on Linux the process.exitcode returns always 0.

What is very strange is, that if I set return code to some other value, like:

...
os._exit( len(cmd) )
...

Then I got exit codes 3 and 2 under Linux, which is correct. But when I do 
something like this:

...
ret = os.system(cmd)
print ret # this print real value, like 32512
os._exit(ret) # exitcode of this child process will be 0 on Linux
...

It doesn't work, which seems very strange to me.

 processes. Rest of lines are printed from main process. This is expected 
 output.
 
 
 
 But when I run same script on Linux, what I get is this:

 from process in parent process gives me 0. I tried to change the script to 
 use fork() instead of Process but the result was same.
 
 
 
 Can anybody explain me what's the problem here?
 
 
 
 (I use Python 2.6 on both Windows and Linux machines)

Seems like I found the problem: os._exit probably takes as parametr unsigned 
char, so it uses as error code whatever value it gets modulo 256:

os._exit(1)  # process.exitcode == 1
os._exit(255)  # process.exitcode == 255
os._exit(256)  # process.exitcode == 0
os._exit(257)  # process.exitcode == 1
os._exit(32512)  # process.exitcode == 0

So on Linux it's necesary to call something like this:
os._exit( os.system(cmd)  8 )

Because the first byte of return value on Linux is number of signal which kills 
the process and the second one is actual exit code.

 Seems like I found the problem: os._exit probably takes as parametr unsigned

 os._exit(256)  # process.exitcode == 0
 os._exit(257)  # process.exitcode == 1
 os._exit(32512)  # process.exitcode == 0

 So on Linux it's necesary to call something like this:
 os._exit( os.system(cmd)  8 )

 Because the first byte of return value on Linux is number of signal which 
 kills the process and the second one is actual exit code.

Yep. I had a reply part-written but you beat me to it! That is indeed
what you need if you want to chain return values.

However, why are you using os._exit? Check out the note here:

 for character in secretWord:

 How do I get it to iterate through ALL of the characters
 of secretWord?

Your code is a fine example of:  attempting to solve too many problems at the 
same time. If you are having trouble understanding how to iterate over a 
sequence, then why would you complicate that learning experience by injecting 
other unsolved problems into the mix? First, solve the iteration problem. Then 
expand.

 ## START INTERACTIVE SESSION ##
 py s = 'multiplicity'
 py for char in s:
 ... print char 
 m
 u
 l
 t
 i
 p
 l
 i
 c
 i
 t
 y
 ## END INTERACTIVE SESSION ##

Now, we have a simple base from which to build! 

 In the piece of code [ABOVE], secretWord is a string and
 lettersGuessed is a list. I'm trying to find out if ALL
 the characters of secretWord are included in
 lettersGuessed, even if there are additional values in the
 lettersGuessed list that aren't in secretWord.

First, step away from your interpreter! Now, grab a pen and paper and write 
down the steps required to compare two sequences in real life.

1. Create a list of letters guessed and a string representing the secret 
word.

secretWord = 'multiplicity'
lettersGuessed = 'aeiouy'

2. For each letter in secretWord, look in lettersGuessed and see if you can 
find the letter, then make a note of your findings. If the letter is in IN both 
sequences, write [letter]=True, if not, write [letter]=False.

However, this algorithm is rather naive. What happens if one or both list 
contain the same letter numerous times (f.e. multiplicity has 3 i chars)? 
Do we want the user to provide a guess for all three i chars, or will just a 
single guess al la price is right will do the trick? 

Also, do we care about the char order? Or are we merely allowing the user to 
guess all the letters of the word in ANY order (that seems to be your intent 
here!)?

In any event i am not going to just gift wrap and answer for you. There are 
many methods of solving this problem, some are elegant, some or not elegant, 
some use built-in functions, some use list comprehensions, and some could just 
use a for loop and a single built-in function. I would highly suggest that you 
figure this out using the latter. Until you can achieve this, forget about list 
comprehension or any advanced stuff. 

But most importantly: Build your code in small incremental steps and solve ONE 
issue at a time. This is the path of a wise problem solver.

If you're using a CGI script, just use a normal python for loop and

Another alternative is to make your own templating system.  Have it load

Re: Why is it impossible to create a compiler than can compile Python to machinecode like C?

 I'm using Python for a while now and I love it. There is just one
 thing I cannot understand. There are compilers for languages like C

The main issue is that python has dynamic typing.  The type of object
that is referenced by a particular name can vary, and there's no way
(in general) to know at compile time what the type of object foo is.

That makes generating object code to manipulate foo very difficult.


 My reasoning is as follows: When GCC compiles a program written in
 C++, it simply takes that code and decides what instructions that
 would mean for the computer's hardware. What does the CPU need to do,
 what does the memory need to remember, etc. etc. If you can create
 this machinecode from C++, then I would suspect that it should also
 be possible to do this (without a C-step in between) for programs
 written in Python.

 Where is my reasoning wrong here? Is that because Python is
 dynamically typed?

Yes.

 Does machinecode always need to know whether a
 variable is an int or a float?

Yes. Not only might it be an int or a float, it might be a string, a
list, a dictionary, a network socket, a file, or some user-defined
object type that the compiler has no way of knowing about.

 And if so, can't you build a compiler which creates machinecode that
 can handle both ints and floats in case of doubt?

That's pretty much what you've got now.  The Python compiler compiles
the source code as much as it can, and the VM is the machinecode that
can handle both ints and floats.

 Or is it actually possible to do, but so much work that nobody does
 it?

 I googled around, and I *think* it is because of the dynamic typing,
 but I really don't understand why this would be an issue..

Can you explain how to generate machine code to handle any possible
object type than any Python user might ever create?

 assuming a function is being used to pass each letter of the letters guessed

 that could work.

 It is however more work than is needed.

 If you made secretword a list,you could just

 set(secretword)set(lettersguessed)

 and check the result is equal to secretword.

Check the result is equal to set(secretword), I think you mean.

set(secretword).issubset(set(lettersguessed))

might be slightly more efficient, since it would not need to build and
return an intersection set.

One might also just do:

all(letter in lettersguessed for letter in secretword)

Which will be efficient if lettersguessed is already a set.

The error tells you everything you need to know: the file system has no

I imagine your CSV file lives in a different location on your Windows 7 
system (which also uses back-slashes '\' instead of forward-slashes '/', 
so you'll need to maybe do a try/except around the open() call to open a 
Windows path like open(c:\\users\\io\\Documents\\markets.csv) or 
whatever. OR you'll need to do some OS detection ahead of time to set 
the file path properly.

Even on Windows, you can use / as a directory separator. This

though still, absolute paths are often wrong. But at least you can use

Re: Why is it impossible to create a compiler than can compile Python to machinecode like C?

 The main issue is that python has dynamic typing.  The type of object
 that is referenced by a particular name can vary, and there's no way
 (in general) to know at compile time what the type of object foo is.

 That makes generating object code to manipulate foo very difficult.

Could you help me understand this better?  For example, if you
have this line in the Python program:

foo = 'some text'
bar = {'apple':'fruit'}

If the interpreter can determine at runtime that foo is a string
and bar is a dict, why can't the compiler figure that out at
compile time?  Or is the problem that if later in the program
you have this line:

foo = 12

now foo is referring to an integer object, not a string, and
compilers can't have two names referring to two different

The dynamic type part is normally in the higher level components of 
objects and functions and generators.

Of course if one can be sure of the types of variables used 
in some functions then that is the cython way to speed up pure OOP python
programs in executions.

I believe you mean one name referring to multiple types.


Something like that?


Something like that. In python, objects are strongly typed, names do not 
have types. Or if you prefer, names are typed according to their current 
binding, which can freely change. As for why this can be an advantage, 
consider this simple function.


def min2(a, b):
  if a = b:
return a
  else:
return b

When the def statement is executed, the names 'a' and 'b' have no 
binding and therefore no type, not even a temporary type.


In a statically typed language, either you or the compiler must rewrite 
that function for every pair of types that are ever input to min2. If 
the compiler does it, it either has to analyze an entire program, or it 
have to compile variations on the fly, as needed. The latter is what the 
psycho module, and, I believe, the pypy jit compiler does.

 why dynamic typing is a problem for compilers.

Python doesn't have variables with values; it has names, which may
(or may not) point to objects. Dynamic typing just means that one name
is allowed to point to multiple different types of object at different
times.

The problem with dynamic typing is more one of polymorphism. Take this
expression as an example:

foo += bar;

In C, the compiler knows the data types of the two variables, and can
compile that to the appropriate code. If they're both integers,
that'll possibly become a single machine instruction that adds two
registers and stores the result back.

In C++, foo could be a custom class with an operator+= function. The
compiler will know, however, what function to call; unless it's a
virtual function, in which case there's a run-time check to figure out
what subclass foo is of, and then the function is called dynamically.

In Python, *everything* is a subclass of PyObject, and every function
call is virtual. That += operation is backed by the __iadd__ function,
defined by PyObject and possibly overridden by whatever type foo is.
So, at run time, the exact function is looked up.

C++ is most definitely a compiled language, at least in most
implementations I've seen. But it has the exact same issue as Python
has: true dynamism requires run-time lookups. That's really what
you're seeing here; it's nothing to do with any sort of compiled vs
interpreted dichotomy, but with compile time vs run time
lookups. In C, everything can be done at compile time; in Python, most
things are done at run time.

It's mainly a matter of degree. A more dynamic language needs to do
more work at run time.

 http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

In the case of literals, the compiler can figure out type information (and
I believe it does do some constant folding). But as soon as you let
something else get in between you and the constant, you lose all guarantees.

import random

if random.random() 0.5 :
spam = 3
else:
spam = hello world

Then you get into monkey patching and dealing with types that may not be
defined at compile time. The only way a python compiler could convert that
to x86 assembly is if generated code that would look up the type
information at runtime. You'd basically be outputting a python interpreter.

 That makes generating object code to manipulate foo very difficult.

That's only a limitation with a static compiler that tries to generate 
fast machine code at compile time. A JIT compiler can generate fast 
machine code at runtime. The idea is that the time you save by running 
more optimized code is greater than the time it costs to generate that 
code each time you run. If not, then you just run the normal byte-code 
you would have run, and you've lost very little.

This has been a very successful approach. Psyco worked very well, and 
it's successor PyPy seems to work even better. PyPy, on average, runs 
about 5-6 times faster than CPython, and for some tasks about 50 times 
faster. That makes it broadly speaking as fast as Java and approaching C, 
and even in some circumstances even beat static C compilers. (Admittedly 
only under very restrictive circumstances.)

The downside is that JIT compilers need a lot of memory. To oversimplify, 
you might take source code like this:

x = a + b

A static compiler knows what types a and b are, and can turn it into a 
single fairly compact piece of machine code. Using my own crappy invented 
machine code notation:

ADD a, b
STORE x


A JIT compiler has to generate a runtime check and one or more fast 
branches, plus a fallback:


CASE (a and b are both ints):
ADD a, b
STORE x
CASE (a and b are both strings):
COPY a, x
CONCATENATE b, x
OTHERWISE:
execute byte code to add two arbitrary objects


The above is probably nothing like the way PyPy actually works. Anyone 
interested in how PyPy really works should spend some time reading their 
website and blog.

http://pypy.org/


I can especially recommend this to give you a flavour for just how 
complicated this sort of thing can become:

Pythonic way for retrieving value for a nested dictionary.

2013-03-04 Thread Lowly Minion
For a typical dict:

i.e. 
d = { '1': 'a', '2', 'b' }

I might use something like:

d.get('1', None)

To get the value of 1.

What would be the most pythonic way of getting a nested value of a dictionary 
within a list:

some_list = [{ 'item': { 'letter': 'b',
  'word': 'bar' }},
{ 'item': { 'letter': 'c',
  'word': 'charcoal' }}]

Currently I am looping through the list as such:

for item in some_list:
  print item['item']['letter']

One other method explored was:
item.get('item').get('letter')

Is a double get the best way? Doesn't seem right to me.

Thank you in advance for your help

Maybe an import is missing in the WSDL description.

Re: Pythonic way for retrieving value for a nested dictionary.

2013-03-04 Thread Dave Angel

On 03/05/2013 01:48 AM, Lowly Minion wrote:

For a typical dict:

i.e.
d = { '1': 'a', '2', 'b' }

I might use something like:

d.get('1', None)

To get the value of 1.

What would be the most pythonic way of getting a nested value of a dictionary 
within a list:

some_list = [{ 'item': { 'letter': 'b',
   'word': 'bar' }},
 { 'item': { 'letter': 'c',
   'word': 'charcoal' }}]

Currently I am looping through the list as such:

for item in some_list:
   print item['item']['letter']

One other method explored was:
item.get('item').get('letter')

Is a double get the best way? Doesn't seem right to me.

Thank you in advance for your help




I'm not sure what the puzzle is.  Use [key] if you know the key exists, 
and use get( key, default) if you don't.  But be aware that if the first 
key doesn't exist, then the default had better be a dict (rather than 
something like None), or the second lookup will throw an exception, even 
if you use get.


One other possibility, depending on just what you're doing with the 
data, is to wrap it in a try/catch.


However, if you know exactly what the keys are, perhaps you should use a 
namedtuple instead of a dict.

[issue17345] Portable and extended type specifiers for array module

2013-03-04 Thread Nikita Nemkin

New submission from Nikita Nemkin:

Currently array module only provides platform-dependent type specifiers.
It would be very nice to have platform-independent specifiers in addition to 
that, matching the struct module.
For example array('H') - an array of little-endian 2-byte integers.

This issue crops up every time when I use array(). Binary data usually comes in 
some predefined format and a manual matching to native format has to be done 
(assuming I want to write portable code).

A useful extra would be to support multi-element struct specifiers and present 
an array of tuples in this case.
For example array('iff') - an array of tuples (int, float, float) with native 
types.

[issue15216] Support setting the encoding on a text stream after creation

2013-03-04 Thread Nick Coghlan

Nick Coghlan added the comment:

That's a fair point - I think it's acceptable to throw an error in the case of 
*already decoded* characters that haven't been read.

There's also a discussion on python-ideas about an explicit API for clearing 
the internal buffers, and pushing data back into a stream. If that is added, 
then set_encoding() would be free to error out if there was any already 
buffered data - it would be up to the application to call clear_buffer() before 
calling set_encoding(), and deal with an such data appropriately (such as 
calling push_data() with the results of the clear_buffer() call)

[issue17347] bsddb._openDBEnv() should not touch current directory

2013-03-04 Thread Florian Weimer

New submission from Florian Weimer:

This code:

def _openDBEnv(cachesize):
e = db.DBEnv()
if cachesize is not None:
if cachesize = 20480:
e.set_cachesize(0, cachesize)
else:
raise error, cachesize must be = 20480
e.set_lk_detect(db.DB_LOCK_DEFAULT)
e.open('.', db.DB_PRIVATE | db.DB_CREATE | db.DB_THREAD | db.DB_INIT_LOCK | 
db.DB_INIT_MPOOL)
return e

causes Berkeley DB to read the DB_CONFIG file from the current directory, which 
may have unexpected side effects.  Unfortunately, Berkeley DB still reads 
./DB_CONFIG even if the first argument to DBEnv.open() is None/NULL, so the 
only way to suppress this behavior seems a non-existing or known-to-by-empty 
directory (such as /var/empty).

[issue16620] Avoid using private function glob.glob1() in msi module and tools

2013-03-04 Thread Serhiy Storchaka

Serhiy Storchaka added the comment:

I have added some comments on Rietveld.

Note that glob.glob() and glob.glob1() returns different filenames. The first 
returns full paths and the second returns bare filenames without a directory 
path. Workarounding this may require more in-depth changes to the code.

Actually this is a low priority issue. It is no so bad to use private functions 
from other modules inside Python stdlib. But it can be a bad example for a 
third party code.

[issue13598] string.Formatter doesn't support empty curly braces {}

2013-03-04 Thread Phil Elson

Phil Elson added the comment:

 I didn't see a test case relating to the example in his comment, namely

 f.format({0:{}}, 'foo', 5)

 Did I miss it?


The example should fail, which it wouldn't have done with the patch previously 
proposed. I believe the case is covered by the block:

with self.assertRaises(ValueError):
fmt.format(foo{1}{}, bar, 6)

Though there is no harm in adding another test along the lines of:

with self.assertRaises(ValueError):
fmt.format({0:{}}, bar, 6)

If you think it is worthwhile?


I'm uncertain which documentation to update since the method which has had its 
signature updated is private and is called solely by Formatter.vformat .

Cheers,

I have added comments on Rietveld.

Perhaps it will be worth to create mixings for cStringIO.StringIO, BytesIO and 
file object and then mix them to other tests.

Note that there is no sense to change pure Python pickle tests. Python 
implementation uses the same code for all streams. It's C implementation needs 
specialized tests (in Lib/test/test_cpickle.py).

[issue17349] wsgiref.simple_server.demo_app is not PEP-3333 compatible

2013-03-04 Thread Andrey Lebedev

New submission from Andrey Lebedev:

Under certain circumstances, wsgiref.simple_server.demo_app may return unicode 
data, but that is prohibited by PEP-.

This happens if environ with unicode key is passed to demo_app. Unicode keys 
are then written to StringIO instance, automatically making its value unicode.

Type of environ keys is not strictly mandated by PEP-, however output of 
WSGI application is:

  When called by the server, the application object must return an iterable 
yielding zero or more bytestrings., see 
http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-/#specification-details

Test case is attached.

(0xDC00 = *p  *p = 0xDFFF)) {
ch = ch  0x03FF)  10) |
   ((Py_UCS4)*p++  0x03FF)) + 0x1);
}
str += sprintf(str, #%d;, (int)ch);
}

And please look at the loop above (determine replacement size). It should be 
corrected too. It will be simpler to use a buffer with static size (``char 
buffer[2+29+1+1];``) as in charmap encoder. Perhaps charmap encoder should be 
fixed too (and common code extracted to separate function).

I doubt about '\ud83d\udc9d' on wide build. Is it right to encode it as 
b'#128157;' and not as b'#55357;#56477;'? This will be compatible with 
narrow build but will break compatibility with 3.3+. What is less evil?

[issue16997] subtests

2013-03-04 Thread Nick Coghlan

Nick Coghlan added the comment:

I think I have figured out what bothers me about the expectedfailure changes, 
and they actually relate to how expectedfailure was implemented in the first 
place: I had previously assumed that decorator was an *annotating* decorator - 
that it set an attribute on the function to indicate it was expected to fail, 
and the test execution machinery then took that into account when deciding how 
to interpret the test result.

The fact that it is instead a *wrapping* decorator is what made the addition of 
subtest support far more complicated than I expected.

However, I'm wondering if it might still be possible to avoid the need for a 
thread local context to handle the combination of expected failures and 
subtests when we have access to the test caseby adding the annotation that I 
expected to be there in the first place. Can't we:

1. Update the expectedfailure decorator to also set _expecting_failure = True 
on the wrapped test case function
2. Update unittest.TestCase.__init__ to do: self._expecting_failure = 
hasattr(testMethod, '__func__') and getattr(testMethod.__func__, 
'_expecting_failure', False)
3. Update unittest._SubTest.__init__ to do: self._expecting_failure = 
test_case._expecting_failure
4. Update testPartExecutor to check if test_case._expecting_failure: instead 
of the current check of the thread local context

[issue17322] urllib.request add_header() currently allows trailing spaces (and other weird stuff)

2013-03-04 Thread R. David Murray

R. David Murray added the comment:

A crazy idea that occurred to me was to create an rfc822-style-header 
management module, and share it between email, http, and urllib.  We'd 
probably break too many things backward-compatibility wise if we did that, but 
I still think it is an interesting thought :)

On the other hand, having thought about this particular issue some more: in the 
email package we have the constraint of needing to be able to exactly reproduce 
the input data, whereas in the http world that constraint does not apply.  So 
in the http world, given that headers are *already* being transformed by the 
code in question (title casing), it seems reasonable that blank stripping also 
be done, even just from an API standpoint.

Really I guess the only question is how likely this is to break existing code.  
I'm pretty sure it is small enough that doing this in 3.4 would be fine, but I 
don't know how to estimate if it is small enough to also change it in 
maintenance releases.  Since this particular bit is a new standard, maybe we 
just go with 3.4?

Getting rid of the thread local would be an improvement, and the change to how 
expected failures is done sounds good too.

[issue13598] string.Formatter doesn't support empty curly braces {}

Vinay Sajip added the comment:

 I believe the case is covered by the block:
[snip]

Ah, right. I wasn't sure that was the exact same code path that was being 
exercised. But I didn't look very closely.

 If you think it is worthwhile?

Only if it exercises a different code path.

 need for a thread local context to handle the combination of

 caseby adding the annotation that I expected to be there in the

But that would break use cases where you use @expectedFailure on a
function called by the test method, not directly on the test method
itself. I don't really care about those use cases myself, but not
breaking them is the reason I chose not to change the @expectedFailure
implementation. I'll let Michael decide :-)

[issue10590] Parameter type error for xml.sax.parseString(string, ...)

2013-03-04 Thread Serhiy Storchaka

Serhiy Storchaka added the comment:

Low-level part already extracted to issue17089 and committed. Issue16986 has a 
similar patch for cElementTree. The main part of path was moved to issue2175 
which is now pre-requisite for issue16986 and for this issue. It contains 
additional tests and additional fixes. It is hard and little sense to split 
them on separated patches. Let's move the discussion to issue2175.

And then the patch for this issue will be small and simple, only several lines 
and one test. At least this issue is less important and actually can be 
considered as a new feature.

[issue16986] ElementTree incorrectly parses strings with declared encoding not UTF-8

2013-03-04 Thread Serhiy Storchaka

Serhiy Storchaka added the comment:

Eli, this issue no longer has open pre-requisites. Issue10590 was replaced by 
issue17089 which closed now. Issue17089 fixed Python interface to expat parser, 
but cElementTree uses C interface of expat directly and the proposed pathes fix 
it.
