[issue10560] Fixes for Windows sources
New submission from Carlo Bramini carlo.bra...@libero.it: Hello, I was able to compile latest python sources with MSVC5, by importing and fixing a bit the project workspaces of MSVC6. During this action I received some messages, so I gave a look to the sources and I would like to suggest the following fixes: 1) in posixmodule.c, I had a warning of constant out of range for secs_between_epochs. The problem has been solved by applying i64 suffix as suggested in MSDN for doing correct declaration of 64 bits constants. While doing this fix, I took this chance for adding support for all currently supported platforms: MSVC, GCC and Watcom. 2) in posixmodule.c, I fixed a bit check_gfax() function: - Function declaration has been fixed with 'void' in its parameter section (fixes a warning). - I removed the variable 'checked' and I placed instead the handle to kernel32 module. - I removed the L-value assignment: all other source codes in Python are already corrected in that manner, this is the last one that needs to be fixed. 3) in posixmodule.c, there is a bug in function Py_GetFileAttributesExW(): it tests for 'gfaxa' but later it uses 'gfaxw'. 4) in dl_nt.c, I fixed function prototypes with void (solves a warning). 5) in dl_nt.c, in function _LoadActCtxPointers(), I do not see a good reason for using widechar version of GetModuleHandle, since it just need to retrieve the instance of kernel32. 6) in dynload_win.c, I fixed _Py_ActivateActCtx prototype declaration (solves a warning). 7) in dynload_win.c, I suggest to rename local strcasecmp() to something less dangerous to prototype conflicts. 8) in dynload_win.c, in function _PyImport_GetDynLoadFunc() the first 'cookie' variable is not used, so its declaration has been removed. I hope you will find this useful. Sincerely, Carlo Bramini. -- components: Windows files: python.txt messages: 122651 nosy: Carlo_Bramini priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Fixes for Windows sources Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file19853/python.txt ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue10560 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue10561] The pdb command 'clear bpnumber' may delete more than one breakpoint

2. The pdb 'clear' command documentation does not mention that all the
breakpoints on a line can be deleted with the command:
clear filename:lineno
See the proposed bdb patch and documentation patch below.

[issue9709] test_distutils warning: initfunc exported twice on Windows
Stefan Krah stefan-use...@bytereef.org added the comment: Thinking about it, declaring PyMODINIT_FUNC as void would be a huge step backwards. Using PyMODINIT_FUNC is the correct way of doing things. The current situation punishes developers who actually read the docs. If a C module stops working because of the change, _all_ the maintainer has to do is change a single line in the sources. PyMODINIT_FUNC is nearly 10 years old, so I think this is not too much to ask. May I suggest deprecating get_export_symbols() for these reasons: 1) The docstring is incorrect: The function does not 'either use export_symbols or PyInit_ + module_name'. It forcibly adds PyInit_ + module_name', if it isn't already present in export_symbols. 2) PyMODINIT_FUNC - which is nearly 10 years old - has obsoleted this function. 3) Developers who do the right thing are punished, since they have to investigate the warning. It is also possible to leave the function (see initfunc2.patch). Then again, on its own get_export_symbols() is practically useless. -- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file19854/initfunc2.patch ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue9709 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue5211] Fix complex type to avoid coercion in 2.7.
Mark Dickinson dicki...@gmail.com added the comment: In my opinion, 2.6.6 was faulty in the float + xint case, for the same reasons as above, and 2.7 is faulty in both float + xint and complex + xint. Well, I disagree: Python is behaving as designed and documented in these cases. If you want to argue that the *design* decisions are the wrong ones, then I'd suggest opening a discussion on the python-ideas mailing list, where more people are likely to get involved---this tracker isn't really the right place for that sort of discussion. Leaving complex out of the mix for the moment, it sounds to me as though you'd like, e.g., float + subclass of int to call the int subclass's __radd__ method (if it exists) before calling the float's __add__ method. Is that correct? Or are you suggesting that float's __add__ method shouldn't accept instances of subclasses of int at all? (i.e., that float.__add__ should return NotImplemented when given an instance of xint). In the first case, you need to come up with general semantics that would give you the behaviour you want for float and xint---e.g., when given numeric objects x and y, what general rule should Python apply to decide whether to call x.__add__ or y.__radd__ first? In the second case, I'd argue that you're going against the whole idea of object-oriented programming; by making xint a subclass of int, you're declaring that its instances *are* 'ints' in a very real sense, so it's entirely reasonable for float's __add__ method to accept them. In either case, note that Python 2.x is not open for behaviour changes, only for bugfixes. Since this isn't a bug (IMO), such changes could only happen in 3.x. Please take further discussion to the python-ideas mailing list. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue5211 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Mark Dickinson dicki...@gmail.com added the comment: I get 114.9. How many '9's are there on what you're getting? If you really get '114.9' then something surprising is happening. If, on the other hand, you get '114.99', then it's all as expected. :-) The issue is one that affects the vast majority of popular programming languages, namely that numbers are stored internally in binary, so a number like 1.15 isn't exactly representable---you end up storing a (very good) approximation to 1.15 instead. And then when you multiply by 100, you end up with a (very good) approximation to 115.0.

[issue10566] gdb debugging support additions (Tools/gdb/libpython.py)
New submission from Mark Florisson markflorisso...@gmail.com: Attached is a patch that adds a few features to the Python debugging support for gdb: - listing of globals - python breakpoints - python stepping/stepping over/finishing of frames/running/continuing - python code execution in the most recent Python frame (relative to the selected frame) Unit tests are included in Lib/test/test_gdb.py. It should be compatible with both python 3 and python 2 (this is important because libpython.py is also part of the Cython debugger branch, see https://github.com/markflorisson88/cython/blob/master/Cython/Debugger/libpython.py ). Python 2 tests are in that Cython branch. It would be great if libpython.py could be installed as an actual Python module instead of a tool, where 'python-gdb.py' would be the actual tool that imports libpython.py. This may remove the need in the future to duplicate files in the Python source distribution and in future versions of Cython. Another good thing about that is that if users don't have python-gdb.py installed properly, or would like to use functionality without having loaded the interpreter in gdb (i.e. 'file python'), they can just do 'python import libpython' in gdb to load the Python support. I can't assign this issue, but Dave Malcolm (dmalcolm) asked me to assign the issue to him, so I kindly request someone with these capabilities to assign this issue accordingly. -- components: Demos and Tools files: libpython_patch.diff keywords: patch messages: 122681 nosy: eggy priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: gdb debugging support additions (Tools/gdb/libpython.py) type: feature request versions: Python 3.2 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file19857/libpython_patch.diff ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue10566 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

I think there is a proposal (if not already in Unicode 6.0) to add
hexadecimal value property to UCD, but I don't think it is right for
int() and float() to depend on UCD in the first place. If people need
to process exotic decimals, we can expose 'decimal' encoding, however,
translating from code-point to decimal value is trivial - just
subtract the code-point value for zero.
(Anyone knows whether Arabic numbers are written right to left
or left to right? What is the proper decimal point character?)
Well, judging by the chocolate packaging I saw recently, they're written left
to right
(so presumably if you're reading right-to-left, you see the units first, then
the tens, etc.,
which always struck me as the 'right' way to write things in the first place
:-).
Did your chocolate packaging use European digits or Arabic-Indic ones?
Note that they have different bidi properties:
'EN'
unicodedata.bidirectional('\N{ARABIC-INDIC DIGIT ONE}')
'AN'
(I am not sure what 'AN' (Arabic Numeral?) bidi property actually mean.)

No, I think PyOS_string_to_double() can generate better error messages than PyUnicode_EncodeDecimal. It is important to pass losslessly encoded string to PyOS_string_to_double() for proper error reporting. Otherwise, we will have to catch the error in PyFloat_FromString() just to add the string value to the message and may loose other information such as the precise location of the offending character. (AFAICT, we don't make use of it now, but this would be a meaningful improvement.) I see it as PyUnicode_EncodeDecimal's job to turn the unicode input into usable ASCII (or raise an exception); it looks like that's not happening here. UTF-8 is quite usable by PyOS_string_to_double() . UTF-8 encoder is extremely fast and will only get faster over time.

The purpose of the PyUnicode_EncodeDecimal() API is to convert Unicode decimal digits to ASCII digits for interpretation by the other usual functions to convert the ASCII representation to numbers. The proposed patch will not work, since it removes the support for non-ASCII number code points, e.g. Asian number code points.

[issue10544] yield expression inside generator expression does nothing
Raymond Hettinger rhettin...@users.sourceforge.net added the comment: This discussion should probably be moved to python-dev. With tools like Twisted's inlineDefer or the Monocle package, there is a growing need to be able to use yield in complex expressions. Yet, that goes against the trend toward making lists comps more like genexps and less like sugar for a simple for-loop accumulator. Guido, do you have any thoughts on the subject? Mark it a documentation issue or try out Benjamin's fix? -- assignee: - gvanrossum nosy: +gvanrossum versions: +Python 3.2 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue10544 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

In 2.5 and 2.6, there was no table lookup anymore, but a switch statement. Not sure how you arrived at the code; the commit message doesn't say (but the wording suggests it was manually computed).

[issue10568] Python and the Unicode Character Database
New submission from Alexander Belopolsky alexander.belopol...@gmail.com: Two recently reported issues brought into light the fact that Python language definition is closely tied to character properties maintained by the Unicode Consortium. [1,2] For example, when Python switches to Unicode 6.0.0 (planned for the upcoming 3.2 release), we will gain two additional characters that Python can use in identifiers. [3] With Python 3.1: Traceback (most recent call last): File stdin, line 1, in module File string, line 1 ೱ = 1 ^ SyntaxError: invalid character in identifier but with Python 3.2a4: 1 Of course, the likelihood is low that this change will affect any user, but the change in str.isspace() reported in [1] is likely to cause some trouble: [u'A', u'B'] [u'A\u200bB'] While we have little choice but to follow UCD in defining str.isidentifier(), I think Python can promise users more stability in what it treats as space or as a digit in its builtins. For example, I don't think that supporting 1234.56 is more important than to assure users that once their program accepted some text as a number, they can assume that the text is ASCII.
