 This usually happens if there was some connection error during the
 update. You can try other mirrors (see:
 http://pydev.blogspot.com/2009/07/pydev-147-released.html for the new
 added mirrors).

Excellent reply.  Thanks.

I added http://fabioz.com/pydev/updates to my site list and the update
completed immediately.

I'll bookmark the blog as well.

Thanks again.

Re: Python servlet for Java applet ?

 Well, for a start, in the Python world the word 'servlet' isn't used
 much. So I assume it comes from your Java legacy and you actually mean
 'any server-side python script' (in webware they use the term
 'servlet', however).

snip

I agree that servlet isn't a Python term.  I should have put it in
quotes. 

Your reply was very instructive.  Thanks for taking the time to post
it. 

I am probably going to build my servlet as a simple Python socket
service.

 Ok, let's make some basic questions:
 
 1) do you know how to program an applet in order to invoke an URL on a server?

I know how to invoke a URL with an application.  I assume its the same
doing it with an applet.

 2) do you know how to program a server in order to answer to HTTP requests?

I've got a good idea how to do that.

I thought that applets weren't allowed to access URLs directly.  If they
can, this problem becomes trivial. 

Thanks for the reply.

 Yes, you can use Corba, XMLRPC, SOAP, JSON-RPC. Corba probably will have
 to be tunnelled through port 80 (the others already do this by default
 because they are based on HTTP).
 
 L How does it work compared to a Java servlet with a Java applet ?
 
 With a Java applet communicating with a Java servlet you also have the
 option of using RMI. For the rest it is similar.

Why doesn't this work ? For loop variable scoping ?

2009-03-19 Thread Linuxguy123

Hi people. 

I've got a small piece of code that I don't understand.  Basically, a
variable inside an if statement inside a for loop doesn't seem to be
updating.  Is this a scope issue ?

Thanks

Code segment: 

snip

# run through the cycle and calculate the temperature and pressure at
each position, ie every 0.5 crankshaft degrees 
#global newCylinderPressure
#global newCylinderTemperature

for position in range(1,721):
newCylinderPressure = cylinderPressure[position -1] *
(cylinderVolume[position -1] / cylinderVolume[position])**1.4
newCylinderTemperature = (cylinderTemperature[position -1] + 459.67)
* (cylinderVolume[position -1] / cylinderVolume[position])**0.4 - 459.67

# add 1.0 BTUs of heat to the combustion chamber at TDC, which is
position # 360
if position == 360:
#calculate the new temperature
print newCylinderTemperature
deltaTemp = 1.0 / (airMass * Cv)
newCylinderTempertature = newCylinderTemperature + deltaTemp
print deltaTemp
print newCylinderTemperature



The output from this code is:

1357.65862978 -- newCylinderTemperature when we enter the if statement
2626.04165688 -- deltaTemp, as it should be
1357.65862978 -- newCylinderTemperature at the end of the if statement,
which HASN'T CHANGED.  It should be 1357 + 2626 = 3983.   Why doesn't it
change ?  Is there some sort of scope issue here ?

How do I declare global vars or class vars in Python ?

2009-02-17 Thread Linuxguy123
How do I do this in Python ?

#
declare A,B

function getA
return A

function getB
return B

function setA(value)
 A = value

function setB(value)
 B = value

main()
getA
getB
dosomething
setA(aValue)
setB(aValue)


The part I don't know to do is declare the variables, either as globals
or as vars in a class.  How is this done in Python without setting them
to a value ?

Thanks

Function name limit in Python ?

Excuse my ignorance, but is there a limit to the size of function names

I named a function getSynclientVersion() and I got an error when I
called it.  I renamed the same function to getSCVersion() and it called
fine.

Why ?

Why doesn't this work in Eclipse ? (Simple pexpect code that works in bash)

2009-01-30 Thread Linuxguy123
I'm trying to build a small Python app in Eclipse under Fedora 10.

I have the following code:

import os
import sys
import pexpect

child = pexpect.spawn('/bin/bash')
child.interact()

When I run it in Eclipse, I get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File /home/xxx/workspace/FixPermissions/src/default/main.py, line
56, in module
child.interact()
  File /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/pexpect.py, line 1489, in
interact
mode = tty.tcgetattr(self.STDIN_FILENO)
termios.error: (22, 'Invalid argument')


Yet if I run it in a bash shell, it works:

$ python
Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Sep 30 2008, 15:41:38)
[GCC 4.3.2 20080917 (Red Hat 4.3.2-4)] on linux2
Type help, copyright, credits or license for more information.
 import os
 import sys
 import pexpect
 child = pexpect.spawn('/bin/bash')
 child.interact()
[...@localhost ~]$ ls
outputs file list here...
[...@localhost ~]$ exit



Why doesn't it run under Eclipse and how do I fix it so it does ?

Thanks

How do I get my python program to get the root password ?

2009-01-23 Thread Linuxguy123
I want to make a python program that I can run as a normal user that
changes the permission on some device files.  It will need to ask me for
the root password and then run chown as root in order to do this. 

How do I accomplish this (easily) ?

I'm a python addict !

2009-01-23 Thread Linuxguy123
I just started using python last week and I'm addicted.

I hate Perl.  I never did learn to use it with any competence.  I has to
be the most obfuscated, cryptic language I've ever seen.  Making it
object oriented only makes it worse !

While I am at it, I dislike bash shell programming too. 

Man, I love Python !  Its so clean and easy to use.  Its so complete.
It links into everything one way or another... Java, C, C++, Qt, KDE,
SWT, Swing and probably more things that I don't know about.  Python
makes sense.  Python is readable. 

I will never write another Perl or Bash script again.  I will never use
another low level language to do simple things again. 

I love how Python has object member lists in PyDev in Eclipe.  It makes
it easy to use and explore the language and objects. 

I wrote a simple command line serial emulator in about 10 minutes using
the PySerial library.  Unbelievable.  

I see a lot of Python in my future.

PyQt4 on Windows ?

2009-01-19 Thread Linuxguy123
What does it take to get a PyQt4 application running on a Windows
machine ?

I'm sorry if this is a redundant question, but I've searched this and I
am not finding a comprehensive answer.

If anyone is running a PyQt4 application on a Windows (XP or Vista)
machine, I'd love to know how it works for you and how extensive the
application is and how much of the Qt library it uses.

Thanks
