But you're way off base if you think most industrial quality code for manipulating boolean logic uses (or even can be restricted to use) only two values and still accomplish their tasks correctly and within a finite amount of time.

It's a separate enumerated type, with a set of resolution rules defined in a function the source of which is available in std_logic_1164.vhd. And according to the strict rules of VHDL (up until VHDL2008 decided to forfeit some purity for simplicity's), you can't simply have: signal x: std_logic ... if x then You have to ask if x = '1' or if (x = '1') or (x = 'H') Because you are comparing one value of an enumerated type against others, the result of that '=' operation being, in fact, a boolean, defined again on the range (true, false).

I don't know what you mean about composition vs. sub-classing. Would you care to show an example of how it would solve the problem and still allow hierarchical sorting ? I don't see how you can get pre-existing python functions (like sort, max, and min) to accept a complex bool value and have that value automatically revert to a True or False in an intelligent manner without overloading the operators defined in some class -- somewhere -- to operate on the data the class contains. How do you intend to achieve that with this -- composition -- thing you mentioned ? You'd do it something like this. class _clogic(object): Represents 'continuous' logic. For any given instance, there is a threshold value between 0 and 1 that delineates True from False, with 0 being entirely False and 1 being entirely True. def __init__(self, value, threshold=0.5): self.value = value self.threshold = threshold def __bool__(self): return value threshold __nonzero__ = __bool__ def __eq__(self, other): if other in (True, False): return bool(self) == other try: return self.value == other.value except AttributeError: return self.value == other def __and__(self, other): return self.__class__( min(self.value, other.value), self.threshold) def __or__(self, other): return self.__class__( max(self.value, other.value), self.threshold) No need to subclass bool, you just use the __bool__ (or __nonzero__) methods to say Alright, well when you do finally have to make a decision on this thing, here's how you make it.

Re: How to terminate the function that runs every n seconds
Marko Rauhamaa ma...@pacujo.net: Dennis Lee Bieber wlfr...@ix.netcom.com: My response to that then is: design the thread's I/O so that it is not blocking... On Linux, maybe a timed select(); Windows? short sleeps around a non-blocking check for available data... (if console I/O, msvcrt.kbhit(); otherwise may need some other library function to put a time-out on the I/O) Ah, polling, the fig leaf that covers embarrassing design constraints all over the world. And to provide something constructive, I should add: Polling is occasionally the right way forward (consider the Linux kernel's NAPI, for example). However, it is usually bad because: * it consumes resources when there is no need: the CPU wakes up from the power-saving mode, the hard disk spins unnecessarily; the battery that should be good for several years, dies in the middle of the winter * it is not reactive enough as you must wait patiently for the polling interval to expire. Since you brought up select(), a better choice is right under your nose: multiplexing. Have your program block and be prepared for any possible stimulus. However, once you do that, you realize you lose the naive simplicity of threads. Thus we arrive at the conclusion: asynchronous programming and processes are usually a better design choice than threads. Marko -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

[issue23211] test.test_logging.SMTPHandlerTest failing on Snow Leopard
Ned Deily added the comment: Yes, this has the same root cause as the failure in Issue20605 since SMTPServer in smtpd.py uses getaddrinfo. I'm now able to reliably reproduce the failure. The system getaddrinfo failure is seen when the OS X 10.6 system's network configuration is *not* using the local mdns for its primary domain service (which can be checked with scutil --dns); it fails when using an external dns as its primary dns service. At least that's one failure scenario. In any case, this seems to have been fixed in later versions of OS X, the problem appears to be unique to getaddrinfo (gethostbyname works OK), and it's only this one test. I'm tempted to just close this as won't fix; on the other hand, it's easy enough to change this test to use '127.0.0.0' instead of 'localhost'; there are precedents for doing that for other reasons (Issue18792, for example). Here's a patch that does so and thus avoids the potential problem on 10.6. I'll apply it if there are no objections. -- keywords: +patch nosy: +vinay.sajip stage: - patch review versions: +Python 3.4 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file37717/issue23211.patch ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue23211 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue20132] Many incremental codecs don’t handle fragmented data

I added a patch to Issue 13881 to fix StreamWriter for zlib and bz2, and to fix StreamWriter.writelines() in general. I am adding a patch here to clarify the StreamReader API and fix the StreamReader for the zlib-codec. Plan of other things to do: bz2 StreamReader: Should be implemented similar to the zlib patch above, after Issue 15955 is resolved and we have a max_length parameter to use. Or could be based on Bz2File now. hex decoder: Shouldn’t be too hard to hack a stateful IncrementalDecoder that saves the leftover digit if given an odd number of digits. Create a generic codecs._IncrementalStreamReader class that uses an IncrementalDecoder and buffers unread decoded data, similar to my _IncrementalStreamWriter for Issue 13881. base64 encoder: IncrementalEncoder could encode in base64.MAXBINSIZE chunks base64 decoder: IncrementalDecoder could strip non-alphabet characters using regular expressions, decode in multiples of four characters quopri encoder: would require new implementation or major refactoring of quopri module quopri decoder: check for incomplete trailing escape codes (=, =single hex digit, =\r) and newlines (\r) uu encoder: write header and trailer via uu module; encode using b2a_uu() uu decoder: factor out header parsing from uu module; buffer and decode line by line based on encoded length unicode-escape, raw-unicode-escape: Stateful decoding would probably require a new -Stateful() function at the C level, though it might be easy to build from the existing implementation. I suggest documenting that stateful decoding is not supported for the time being. utf-7: As Walter said, proper stateful codec is not supported by the C API, despite PyUnicode_DecodeUTF7Stateful(); doing so would probably require significant changes. I suggest documenting a warning for stateful mode (including with TextIOWrapper) about suboptimal encoding and unlimited data buffering for the time being. punycode, unicode_internal: According to test_codecs.py, these also don’t work in stateful mode.

[issue20132] Many incremental codecs don’t handle fragmented data
Martin Panter added the comment: My “master plan” is basically to make most of the bytes-to-bytes codecs work as documented in the incremental (stateful) modes. I’m less interested in fixing the text codecs, and the quopri and uu codecs might be too hard, so I was going to propose some documentation warnings for those. If you have a suggestion on how to go about this better, let me know. With my doc change to StreamReader, I wanted to document the different modes that I saw in the base codecs.StreamReader.read() implementation: * read() or read(-1) reads everything * read(size) returns an arbitrary amount of data * read(size, chars) returns exactly *chars* length of data (unless EOF or similar) Previously the case of read(-1, chars) was ambiguous. Also I did not find the description “an approximate maximum number of decoded bytes” very helpful, considering more than this maximum was read if necessary to get enough *chars*. Regarding the end-of-stream behaviour, I made an assumption but I now realize it was wrong. Experimenting with the UTF-8 codec shows that its StreamReader.read() keeps returning when the underlying stream returns no data. But if it was in the middle of a multi-byte sequence, no “end of data” error is raised, and the multi-byte sequence can be completed if the underlying stream later returns more data. I think the lack of end-of-data checking should be documented. The different cases of ValueError and UnicodeError that you describe make sense. I think the various references to ValueError and UnicodeError should be updated (or replaced with pointers) to match. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue20132 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Regarding the patch: The doc patch seems to just change ordering of sentences and paragraphs. Without additional explanation, it's difficult to determine whether you are changing semantics or not. The strict error change is not correct. Most codecs raise a UnicodeError (which is a ValueError subclass) and code expects codecs that work on Unicode to return a UnicodeError, not a ValueError.

Re: Comparisons and sorting of a numeric class....
On Thu, Jan 15, 2015 at 6:45 PM, Andrew Robinson andr...@r3dsolutions.com wrote: Then I look at python development historically and look at the built in class's return values for compares; and I notice; they have over time become more and more tied to the 'type' bool. I expect sometime in the future that python may implement an actual type check on all comparison operators so they can not be used to return anything but a bool. Let's see what the documentation says about this: A rich comparison method may return the singleton NotImplemented if it does not implement the operation for a given pair of arguments. By convention, False and True are returned for a successful comparison. However, these methods can return any value, so if the comparison operator is used in a Boolean context (e.g., in the condition of an if statement), Python will call bool() on the value to determine if the result is true or false. https://docs.python.org/3/reference/datamodel.html#object.__lt__ So the docs explicitly promise that comparison methods can return any value. Changing this would break backward compatibility (in particular it would break a lot of DSLs), so it's not going to happen any time soon, and you have nothing to worry about here. (eg: I already noticed a type check on the return value of len() so that I can't return infinity, even when a method clearly is returning an infinitely long iterator -- such as a method computing PI dynamically. That suggests to me that there is significant risk in python of having type checking on all __xx__ methods in the future. ) This inspection is what points me foremost to saying that very likely, I am going to want a bool or subtye of it (if possible) as a return type as self defense against future changes in Python -- although at present, I can still get away with returning other types if bool turns out to be impossible. I suspect the reason __len__ must return an int is largely historical. Back before __iter__ existed, the way Python did iteration was by calling __len__ and then calling __getitem__ for each index between 0 and the result. Obviously for this to work, the result had to be an int, and infinite iterators didn't exist in this era either. Nowadays, that sort of iteration is non-standard, but Python will still fall back on it if __iter__ isn't defined. So, your first alternative is the most at risk of future problems due to constraints likely to be placed on comparison return types ; and as I don't want to do much maintenance on my library in the future -- I don't think that is a very good choice for making my library with. Except that the risk you describe is fictitious. One example: It can also be a union. I don't understand what you think this means. I know what *I* think it means, but subclass = union doesn't make sense to me, so wonder what you think it means. It's a fringe use-case in Python that I don't think many people use/know about. I was just being thorough in listing it. I haven't seen it used in actual python code myself -- but I know from the literature I've read on Python that it is occasionally used in a manner analogous to that of C/C++. In C/C++ unions are a datatype that allow two (or more) different types of data to be defined as held by one object, but only one of them is allowed to be initialized at a time because their location in computer memory which overlaps. C places no restrictions on the compatibility of the datatypes -- which is different than Python, but Python has a similar ability. In Python, when multiple inheritance is invoked -- it does some kind of check on the base types for compatibility; but still appears to be able / or simply does overlap the allocated memory for the different base types; eg: according to several sources I have read (at least on C-python internals). So one can semantically instantiate a subclass of one subtype without semantically instantiating the other. ALl I know about it is what I have seen it in Python literature -- and I tested the examples I was shown to see if they still work, and they do -- and noted that at least at one time Guido apparently thought it was a good idea ; but I haven't pursued it beyond that. Do you have a link? I have no idea what you're referring to, and I suspect that you're confused. You can't do multiple inheritance from types that would internally have overlapping memory. For example: class Foo(list, dict): pass ... Traceback (most recent call last): File stdin, line 1, in module TypeError: multiple bases have instance lay-out conflict I'm getting the message that the reason Guido though this was important was because the historical meaning of bool is more important than the idea that metastability is an issue to be dealt with at the same time as the data value -- like electrical engineers do regularly. Maybe because Python wasn't written for electrical engineers. It's a general purpose boolean

You don't have to explain the benefits of subclassing here. I'm still trying to understand why you think you *need* to use a bool subclass. I can think of multiple alternatives: - don't use True and False at all, create your own multi-valued truth values ReallyTrue, MaybeTrue, SittingOnTheFence, ProbablyFalse, CertainlyFalse (or whatever names you choose to give them); - use delegation to proxy True and False; - write a class to handle the PossiblyTrue and PossiblyFalse cases, and use True and False for the True and False cases; There may be other alternatives, but what problem are you solving that you think class MyBool(bool): ... is the only solution? That's a unfair question that has multiple overlapping answers. Especially since I never said subclassing bool is the 'only' solution; I have indicated it's a far better solution than many. So -- I'll just walk you through my thought processes and you will see what I consider problems: Start with the concept that as an engineer, I have spent well over twenty years on and off dealing with boolean values that are very often mixed indistinguishably with 'don't care' or 'tri-state' or 'metastable states'. A metastable state *is* going to be True or False once the metastability resolves by some condition of measurement/timing/etc.; but that value can not be known in advance. eg: similar to the idea that there is early and late binding in programming Sometimes there is a very good reason to delay making a final decision until the last possible moment; and it is good to have a default value defined if no decision is made at all. So -- From my perspective, Guido making Python go from an open ended and permissive use of anything goes as a return value that can handle metastable states -- into to a historical version of 'logic' being having *only* two values in a very puritanical sense, is rather -- well -- disappointing. It makes me wonder -- what hit the fan?! Is it lemmings syndrome ? a fight ? no idea and is there any hope of recovery or a work around ? eg: To me -- (as an engineer) undefined *IS* equivalent in useage to an acutal logic value, just as infinity is a floating point value that is returned as a 'float'. You COULD/CAN separate the two values from each other -- but always with penalties. They generally share an OOP 'is' relationship with respect to how and when they are used. (inf) 'IS' a float value and -- uncertain -- 'IS' a logic value. That is why I automatically thought before I ever started writing on this list (and you are challenging me to change...) -- that 'uncertain' should share the same type (or at least subtype) as Bool. Mathematicians can argue all they want that 'infinity' is not a float value, and uncertain is not a True or False. And they are/will be technically right -- But as a practical matter -- I think programmers have demonstrated over the years that good code can handle 'infinity' most efficiently by considering it a value rather than an exception. And I think the same kind of considerations very very likely apply to Truth values returned from comparisons found in statistics, quantum mechanics, computer logic design, and several other fields that I am less familiar with. So -- let's look at the examples you gave: - don't use True and False at all, create your own multi-valued truth values ReallyTrue, MaybeTrue, SittingOnTheFence, ProbablyFalse, CertainlyFalse (or whatever names you choose to give them); OK. So -- what do I think about when I see your suggestion: First I need to note where my booleans come from -- although I've never called it multi-valued logic... so jargon drift is an issue... though you're not wrong, please note the idea of muti-value is mildly misleading. The return values I'm concerned about come from a decimal value after a comparison with another decimal value. eg: a = magicFloat( '2.15623423423(1)' ) b = magicFloat('3()') myTruthObject = ab Then I look at python development historically and look at the built in class's return values for compares; and I notice; they have over time become more and more tied to the 'type' bool. I expect sometime in the future that python may implement an actual type check on all comparison operators so they can not be used to return anything but a bool. (eg: I already noticed a type check on the return value of len() so that I can't return infinity, even when a method clearly is returning an infinitely long iterator -- such as a method

Steve, here is your example translated, about as simple as I can make it: from lambdak import * value = [ 1, hello, int, given_(lambda a, b = None: import_(math, lambda math: given_(lambda globs = globals(), spam = spam: assign_(spam, [a, b] * 3, globs, lambda: print_(get_(spam, globs), lambda: del_(spam, globs)) ] value[3](1) del value[3] The problem with globals is that a Python module can't easily manipulate the globals of its caller modules. Here you can see I had to work around the issue by just creating a few functions[1] which generically work with dicts and then explicitly passing in the globals dict on each call. I don't see any other reasonable way to do it. I would welcome being proven wrong here. To the responders in the 'beauty of the code' subthread: yes, I realise that lambdak is not Pythonic, and it will make angels cry, and all that. My view is you should actually be _happy_ that it looks like this. If anyone ever asks about multi-line lambdas again, you can point to lambdak and say, 'See!

[issue23246] distutils fails to locate vcvarsall with Visual C++ Compiler for Python
New submission from Gregory Szorc: distutils as of Python 2.7.9 is unable to locate vcvarsall.bat if Visual C++ Compiler for Python is the only Visual Studio distribution installed. STR: 1) Do a fresh install of Windows + all updates 2) Install Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler for Python from http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=44266 3) Enter a Visual C++ 2008 command prompt via start menu 4) Attempt to run any |python.exe setup.py| that contains C extensions 5) Unable to find vcvarsall.bat Examining the behavior of MSVC for Python's bat scripts and filesystem layout, it is different enough from full distributions that it confused distutils. First, MSVC for Python doesn't appear to set any meaningful registry entries. So, the registry checking in msvc9compiler fails to find anything. Second, the command environment for MSVC for Python doesn't export VS90COMNTOOLS, so msvc9compiler has no clue where to go looking for files. Third, even if VS90COMNTOOLS is set, msvc9compiler isn't able to find vcvarsall.bat because it is installed in %installdir%/vcvarsall.bat and not %installdir%/VC/vcvarsall.bat, unlike every other Visual Studio AFAICT. Another concern is that distutils.msvc9compiler.find_vcvarsall() first attempts to read from the registry, not the environment. If you are in a MSVC for Python command shell and you also have Visual Studio 2008 installed, distutils will use vcvarsall.bat from the full Visual Studio installation instead of the Python one. I think this is wrong. The MSVC for Python command prompt does have an environment variable that can be used: VCINSTALLDIR. It is set to %installdir%\VC\, which is equivalent to ~/AppData/Local/Programs/Common/Microsoft/Visual C++ for Python/9.0/VC/ if you launch the installer with default options. distutils could be patched to find vcvarsall.bat in %VCINSTALLDIR%\..\vcvarsall.bat Fortunately, a workaround is available: 1) Enter MSVC for Python command prompt 2) SET DISTUTILS_USE_SDK=1 3) SET MSSdk=1 4) python.exe setup.py ... -- components: Distutils messages: 234110 nosy: Gregory.Szorc, dstufft, eric.araujo priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: distutils fails to locate vcvarsall with Visual C++ Compiler for Python versions: Python 2.7 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue23246 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

MySQL connections
Development machine is windows7 64 bit machine, now working with either/both python 2.7 or 3.4 - test purposes, trying to figure out if this was something like a version incompatibility issue, and tried using both XAMPP and WAMP MySQL server version 5.0.11 instances thus far. Now, aside from all other issues relating to character encoding, etc., now down to, hopefully, final issue. Side note is under python 2.7, I use pyodbc to gather data from .mdb file am using to test, but under python 3.4, I use pypyodbc for same functionality. Now, current/actual issue is something can sort of duplicate using both MySQLdb version of mysqlclient, as well as pymysql using both python 2.7 and python 3.4, but, strange thing am trying to figure out is that even if just implement a connection object in interpreter of either version, retrieve an instance of a cursor object, and do various types of statement executions, no issues, and can then close connection, or cursor, or both, and all good/fine/well. However, if implement similar code - down to just trying to open a connection, wait a few seconds, and then close it again, inside a function called from a prior function, in the class am implementing in a file called/executed from command line, then, the moment I try to close the connection, whether or not have done anything with it, that's when I get that python.exe has stopped working/responding error message popping up, and python bombs out. Have no idea how to try track down actual source/cause of issue, since haven't found anything obvious in system event logs, nothing appearing in MySQL server logs that makes sense/appears relevant, and no matter if I try enclosing the connection open/close code inside try except code blocks, nothing happens there except that python just stops cooperating at all, and stops working. Now did try making sure data execution prevention was turned on/off, and that if set to second mode then told it to ignore specific applications - added both python.exe, and the compiled version of my code to it's exemption list, but, no changes there. This still operates fine on my other dev machine, but, would like to know why it's not operating on one specific machine. Otherwise, will just have to tell guys that, sorry, will only be able to generate SQL script text files, and they'll have to stick to the final step of then executing those via MySQL console interface, or something, but, would really prefer to at the very least, figure/find out what's causing this mis-behaviour. Thoughts/suggestions with regards to how to find out what is happening/what I'm doing/handling wrong/incorrectly? The two current versions of the code - which work fine under interpreter of both versions of python are basically the following: #pymysql version import pymysql cn = pymysql.connect(localhost, root, , import_test) time.sleep(5) cn.close() #MySQLdb version import MySQLdb cn = MySQLdb.connect(localhost, root, , import_test) time.sleep(5) cn.close() #end code Stay well (away from this machine ;) ) Jacob Kruger Blind Biker Skype: BlindZA Roger Wilco wants to welcome you...to the space janitor's closet... -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: Opening the file in writing mode
Hi, in 'w' mode, if file does not exist it will create new one (if You have permissions to write in specified location). If file exist, it will 'truncate' it or like it is specified in documentation *(an existing file with the same name will be erased)*. I'm not sure what You mean by existing mode? Maybe to open one file twice? If You open file for reading, then open it again for writing - yes it will be erased or as You said 'overwrite existing mode'. Is that what You think about?

Re: Comparisons and sorting of a numeric class....
On Wed, 14 Jan 2015 23:23:54 -0800, Andrew Robinson wrote: [...] A subclass is generally backward compatible in any event -- as it is built upon a class, so that one can almost always revert to the base class's meaning when desired -- but subclassing allows extended meanings to be carried. eg: A subclass of bool is a bool -- but it can be MORE than a bool in many ways. You don't have to explain the benefits of subclassing here. I'm still trying to understand why you think you *need* to use a bool subclass. I can think of multiple alternatives: - don't use True and False at all, create your own multi-valued truth values ReallyTrue, MaybeTrue, SittingOnTheFence, ProbablyFalse, CertainlyFalse (or whatever names you choose to give them); - use delegation to proxy True and False; - write a class to handle the PossiblyTrue and PossiblyFalse cases, and use True and False for the True and False cases; There may be other alternatives, but what problem are you solving that you think class MyBool(bool): ... is the only solution? One example: It can also be a union. I don't understand what you think this means. I know what *I* think it means, but subclass = union doesn't make sense to me, so wonder what you think it means. So when Guido chose to cut off subclassing -- his decision had a wider impact than just the one he mentioned; eg: extra *instances* of True and False as if he were trying to save memory or something. *shrug* well maybe he was. The reason Guido's action puzzles me is twofold -- first it has been standard industry practice to subclass singleton (or n-ton) objects to expand their meaning in new contexts, I dispute that. I *strongly* dispute that. Industry practice, in my experience, is that there is one and only one case where you can subclass singleton classes: when you have a factory which chooses at runtime which subclass to instantiate, after which you can no longer instantiate any of the other subclasses. E.g. given an *abstract* class Maze, and three *concrete* subclasses Labyrinth, OrdinaryMaze, and EnchantedMaze, you can have a factory function, or method on Maze: class Maze: _the_instance = None @classmethod def create(cls, variant='ordinary'): if cls._the_instance is None: # Create the Maze singleton if variant == 'ordinary': cls._the_instance = OrdinaryMaze() elif variant == 'labyrinth': cls._the_instance = Labyrinth() elif variant == 'enchanted': cls._the_instance = EnchantedMaze() return _the_instance (This is just a sketch of a solution, because the caller can bypass the factory and just call the subclasses directly. In Java it is possible to write this in such a way that the caller cannot easily do so.) Why are we limited to a single Maze? Making Maze a singleton in the first place was a bad idea. The singleton design pattern is *highly* over-used and abused. But that is another story. Let's just assume that the designer has good reason to insist that there be only one Maze, perhaps it uses some resource which truly is limited to there being one only. If that is the case, then allowing the caller to break that invariant by subclassing will just lead to horrible bugs. By using a factory and controlling access to the subclasses, Maze can keep the singleton invariant and allow subclasses. This is not relevant to bool, since True and False are already instantiated. [...] In general -- it's not the goal of subclassing to create more instances of the base types That might not be the goal, but it is the effect. When you instantiate the subclass, by definition the instances are also instances of the base classes. -- but rather to refine meaning in a way that can be automatically reverted to the base class value (when appropriate) and to signal to users that the type can be passed to functions that require a bool because of backward compatibility. And I am wondering what you think you can extend bools to perform that is completely backwards compatible to code that requires bools? I don't think you can. I think you are engaged on a fool's errand, trying to do something impossible *even if subclassing bool were allowed*. But I could be wrong. I just don't think you can possibly write code which is backwards-compatible with code that expects bools while still extending it. People are so prone to write: if flag is True: ... if flag is False: ... (which is naughty of them, but what are you going to do?) [...] Can you name any other language that *does* allow subclassing of booleans or creation of new boolean values? Yes. Several off the top of my head -- and I have mentioned these before. They generally come with the extra subclasses pre-created and the user doesn't get to create the classes, but only use them; none the less -- they have more than two values

Now, current/actual issue is something can sort of duplicate using both MySQLdb version of mysqlclient, as well as pymysql using both python 2.7 and python 3.4, but, strange thing am trying to figure out is that even if just implement a connection object in interpreter of either version, retrieve an instance of a cursor object, and do various types of statement executions, no issues, and can then close connection, or cursor, or both, and all good/fine/well. However, if implement similar code - down to just trying to open a connection, wait a few seconds, and then close it again, inside a function called from a prior function, in the class am implementing in a file called/executed from command line, then, the moment I try to close the connection, whether or not have done anything with it, that's when I get that python.exe has stopped working/responding error message popping up, and python bombs out.

Now did try making sure data execution prevention was turned on/off, and that if set to second mode then told it to ignore specific applications - added both python.exe, and the compiled version of my code to it's exemption list, but, no changes there.

Otherwise, will just have to tell guys that, sorry, will only be able to generate SQL script text files, and they'll have to stick to the final step of then executing those via MySQL console interface, or something, but, would really prefer to at the very least, figure/find out what's causing this mis-behaviour.
