[issue16244] TimedRotatingFileHandler forces write mode, should use append
New submission from Richard Jones: The RotatingFileHandler classes force the open() mode of the new log file to be w even though it is initially defaulted to a in doRollover() methods: self.mode = 'w' self.stream = self._open() This can cause problems in systems that have multiple programs writing to the log file; they can both end up opening the new file in w mode and then there's loss of data. I cannot think of a reason why w should be forced in this manner. The fix is to remove the self.mode = 'w' line from the two doRollover() methods. -- components: Library (Lib) messages: 173016 nosy: richard priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: TimedRotatingFileHandler forces write mode, should use append type: behavior ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue16244 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

ANN: Roundup Issue Tracker 1.4.16 released
I'm proud to release version 1.4.16 of Roundup which introduces some minor features and, as usual, fixes some bugs: Features: - allow trackers to override the classes used to render properties in templating per issue2550659 (thanks Ezio Melotti) - new mailgw configuration item subject_updates_title: If set to no a changed subject in a reply to an issue will not update the issue title with the changed subject. Thanks to Arkadiusz Kita and Peter Funk for requesting the feature and discussing the implementation. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.bug-tracking.roundup.user/10169 - new rdbms config item sqlite_timeout makes the previously hard-coded timeout of 30 seconds configurable. This is the time a client waits for the locked database to become free before giving up. Used only for SQLite backend. - new mailgw config item unpack_rfc822 that unpacks message attachments of type message/rfc822 and attaches the individual parts instead of attaching the whole message/rfc822 attachment to the roundup issue. Fixed: - fixed reporting of source missing warnings - relevant tests made locale independent, issue2550660 (thanks Benni Bärmann for reporting). - fix for incorrect except: syntax, issue2550661 (thanks Jakub Wilk) - No longer use the root logger, use a logger with prefix roundup, see http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.bug-tracking.roundup.devel/5356 - improve handling of 'gt;' when URLs are converted to links, issue2550664 (thanks Ezio Melotti) - fixed registration, issue2550665 (thanks Timo Paulssen) - make sorting of multilinks in the web interface more robust, issue2550663 - Fix charset of first text-part of outgoing multipart messages, thanks Dirk Geschke for reporting, see http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.bug-tracking.roundup.user/10223 - Fix handling of incoming message/rfc822 attachments. These resulted in a weird mail usage error because the email module threw a TypeError which roundup interprets as a Reject exception. Fixes issue2550667. Added regression tests for message/rfc822 attachments with and without configured unpacking (mailgw unpack_rfc822, see Features above) Thanks to Benni Bärmann for reporting. - Allow search_popup macro to work with all db classes, issue2550567 (thanks John Kristensen) - lower memory footprint for (journal-) import If you're upgrading from an older version of Roundup you *must* follow the Software Upgrade guidelines given in the maintenance documentation. Roundup requires python 2.3 or later (but not 3+) for correct operation.

[issue4184] Remove use of private attributes in smtpd
Richard Jones richardjo...@optushome.com.au added the comment: After discussing with core devs at the EuroPython sprint I will implement a different approach: new attributes with the old, private attributes implemented as properties over the new attributes. The properties responsible for this will raise PendingDeprecationWarnings. I'll also be improving (well, *implementing*) test coverage for the module while I'm at it. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue4184 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue4184] Remove use of private attributes in smtpd
Richard Jones richardjo...@optushome.com.au added the comment: Giampaolo, I think I can see where you're coming from: assuming that someone else must have also had to resort to the name-mangling hack to extend the class? In that case yes, my patch would break their code. I'll look at re-working it to use properties while retaining the underlying attributes. Would that be acceptable? What additional tests would you deem necessary? -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue4184 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
Roundup Issue Tracker 1.4.14 released
I'm proud to release version 1.4.14 of Roundup which includes a security fix and some other fixes: Features: - Preparations for getting 2to3 work, not completed yet. (Richard Jones) Fixed: - User input not escaped when a bad template name is supplied (thanks Benjamin Pollack) - The email for the first message on an issue was having its In-Reply-To set to itself (thanks Eric Kow) - Handle multiple @action values from broken trackers. - Accept single-character subject lines - xmlrpc handling of unicode characters and binary values, see http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.bug-tracking.roundup.user/10040 thanks to Hauke Duden for reporting these. - frontends/roundup.cgi got out of sync with the roundup.cgi.Client API - Default to text/plain if no Content-Type header is present in email (thanks Hauke Duden) - Small documentation update regarding debugging aids (Bernhard Reiter) - Indexer Xapian, made Xapian 1.2 compatible. Needs at least Xapian 1.0.0 now. (Bernhard Reiter; Thanks to Olly Betts for providing the patch Issue2550647.) If you're upgrading from an older version of Roundup you *must* follow the Software Upgrade guidelines given in the maintenance documentation. Roundup requires python 2.3 or later (but not 3+) for correct operation. To give Roundup a try, just download (see below), unpack and run:: roundup-demo Release info and download page: http://cheeseshop.python.org/pypi/roundup Source and documentation is available at the website: http://roundup.sourceforge.net/ Mailing lists - the place to ask questions: http://sourceforge.net/mail/?group_id=31577 About Roundup = Roundup is a simple-to-use and -install issue-tracking system with command-line, web and e-mail interfaces. It is based on the winning design from Ka-Ping Yee in the Software Carpentry Track design competition. Note: Ping is not responsible for this project. The contact for this project is rich...@users.sourceforge.net. Roundup manages a number of issues (with flexible properties such as description, priority, and so on) and provides the ability to: (a) submit new issues, (b) find and edit existing issues, and (c) discuss issues with other participants. The system will facilitate communication among the participants by managing discussions and notifying interested parties when issues are edited. One of the major design goals for Roundup that it be simple to get going. Roundup is therefore usable out of the box with any python 2.3+ (but not 3+) installation. It doesn't even need to be installed to be operational, though an install script is provided. It comes with two issue tracker templates (a classic bug/feature tracker and a minimal skeleton) and four database back-ends (anydbm, sqlite, mysql and postgresql). -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-announce-list Support the Python Software Foundation: http://www.python.org/psf/donations/

Roundup Issue Tracker release 1.4.8
I'm proud to release version 1.4.8 of Roundup. This release fixes some regressions: - bug introduced into hyperdb filter (issue 2550505) - bug introduced into CVS export and view (issue 2550529) - bugs introduced in the migration to the email package (issue 2550531) And adds a couple of other fixes: - handle bogus pagination values (issue 2550530) - fix TLS handling with some SMTP servers (issues 2484879 and 1912923) Though some new features made it in also: - Provide a no selection option in web interface selection widgets - Debug logging now uses the logging module rather than print - Allow CGI frontend to serve XMLRPC requests. - Added XMLRPC actions, as well as bridging CGI actions to XMLRPC actions. - Optimized large file serving via mod_python / sendfile(). - Support resuming downloads for (large) files. If you're upgrading from an older version of Roundup you *must* follow the Software Upgrade guidelines given in the maintenance documentation. Roundup requires python 2.3 or later for correct operation.

[issue4184] Remove use of private attributes in smtpd
New submission from Richard Jones [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Executive summary of the patch: The attached patch removes the use of __private attributes in the smtpd module allowing it to be extensible without needing to use the _classname__attributename hack. Summary of the patch's changes: 1. removes the unused __conn and __addr attributes 2. renames __server to smtp_server 3. renames __lines to received_lines 4. renames __state to smtp_state 5. renames __greeting to seen_greeting, and alters the default to empty string to match the anticipated data 6. renames __mailfrom to mailfrom 7. renames __date to received_data 8. renames __fqdn to fqdn 9. removes __peer and uses base class' addr attribute The existing unit tests contained within test_smtplib pass. Additional tests could be written if it's deemed necessary. There is a chance this patch will break backward compatibility with programs that use the private-variable-access hack. A more complex patch could be written providing greater compatibility if it's deemed necessary. -- components: Library (Lib) files: smtpd.py-patch messages: 75132 nosy: richard severity: normal status: open title: Remove use of private attributes in smtpd versions: Python 2.6 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file11867/smtpd.py-patch ___ Python tracker [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://bugs.python.org/issue4184 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Roundup Issue Tracker release 1.4.0
I'm proud to release version 1.4.0 of Roundup. The metakit backend has been removed due to lack of maintenance and presence of good alternatives (in particular sqlite built into Python 2.5) New Features in 1.4.0: - Roundup has a new xmlrpc frontend that gives access to a tracker using XMLRPC. - Dates can now be in the year-range 1- - Add simple anti-spam recipe to docs - Allow customisation of regular expressions used in email parsing, thanks Bruno Damour - Italian translation by Marco Ghidinelli - Multilinks take any iterable - config option: specify port and local hostname for SMTP connections - Tracker index templating (i.e. when roundup_server is serving multiple trackers) (sf bug 1058020) - config option: Limit nosy attachments based on size (Philipp Gortan) - roundup_server supports SSL via pyopenssl - templatable 404 not found messages (sf bug 1403287) - Unauthorized email includes a link to the registration page for the tracker - config options: control whether author info/email is included in email sent by roundup - support for receiving OpenPGP MIME messages (signed or encrypted) There's also a ton of bugfixes. If you're upgrading from an older version of Roundup you *must* follow the Software Upgrade guidelines given in the maintenance documentation.

Re: New UI Toolkit
Gerdus van Zyl wrote: I am halfway to a first release of a new GUI library for python. It will be cross platform and follows the Swing philosophy of user experience and interface fidelity above but it doesn't look like windows! (aside: neither does office 2007 or windowsmediaplayer). The library is built on top of CairoGraphics (cairographics.org) and currently has a rather stable backend for Win32 and experimental backends for GTK,Pyglet,pygame. I am also developing a gui toolkit (for somewhat similar reasons to you, though unrelated to Swing) but it's for pyglet only. If you're interested, you can find it in the pyglet SVN under contrib/wydget. It's under heavy development and is fairly advanced (in terms of widgets, layouts, dialogs etc implemented) already.

Re: using Mac OS X CoreGraphics via ctypes
Daniel wrote: Thanks Diez. I'll try that if I decide to keep going with ctypes. I got a bit further but had some problems with memory management (i.e. retaining and releasing object references). It seemed like Python/ ctypes was accessing referenced objects after I had released them, which caused segfaults. I would be unlikely that this is the case. Much more likely is that you've got some memory allocated by Python which is being passed on to a C library and is subsequently freed by Python before the C library is finished with it. Happens all the time. Just make sure you keep a reference in Python land to any objects you've handed over to C for the lifetime that the C library is likely to use it. Having said that, it doesn't look like that's what's happening with your CGPDFDocumentRelease call, though perhaps you needed to clean up the page or rect that you obtained in the loop? k constants defined as strings are 32-bit numbers derived from 4 character strings. You'll need to convert those strings to the correct number. Once you've done that I believe your CGColorSpaceCreateWithName call will work.
