[issue4714] print opcode stats at the end of pybench runs

 This patch prints opcode statistics at the end of a pybench run if

 Is it ok? Is it better to add it to the Benchmark class?

I don't think it's worth doing this for low-level and highly
artificial benchmarks like the ones run by pybench.

Opcode statistics are much better taken in real life applications,
e.g. let Django, Zope, etc. run for a day or two and then look
at the opcode statistics.

If at all, then opcode statistics should be an optional feature
enabled by a command line switch. I'd then create new methods
bench.start_opcode_stats(), bench.stop_opcode_stats() and
bench.get_opcode_stats().

Also note that this line will result in wrong results:

+if opstats:
+opstats = [new - old
+for new, old in zip(sys.getdxp(), opstats)]

It should be:

start_opstats = sys.getdxp()
...
stop_opstats = sys.getdxp()
opstats = [new_value - old_value
   for new_value, old_value in zip(stop_opstats, start_opstats]

Well, it can help to know which opcodes are executed when running a
particular bunch of sub-tests :)

 enabled by a command line switch. I'd then create new methods
 bench.start_opcode_stats(), bench.stop_opcode_stats() and

 Also note that this line will result in wrong results:

You are right, my assumption was simply that the error would be in the
noise.

[issue4716] Python 3.0 halts on shutdown when settrace is set

2008-12-22 Thread Fabio Zadrozny

New submission from Fabio Zadrozny fab...@users.sourceforge.net:

In Python 3.0, the interpreter will not shutdown properly after setting
a tracing function and something goes into stdout.

The code attached shows the problem in action: just execute it and
notice how the interpreter will be kept running after the code has been
executed.

There are some more things that need to be considered:
- If the print('here') is not called, it will shutdown
- If BOTH the print('here') and the sys.settrace(None) is not called, it
will NOT shutdown

Note: I've marked the bug as crash because it's halting, but maybe there
could be a better alternative for it...

[issue4717] execfile conversion is not correct

2008-12-22 Thread Fabio Zadrozny

New submission from Fabio Zadrozny fab...@users.sourceforge.net:

In 2to3, execfile(file, globals, locals) is translated to 

exec(open(file).read(), globals, locals)

But that's not correct, as the actual file from the executed code gets
wrong with that.

The correct thing would be:

exec(compile(open(file).read(), file, 'exec'), globals, locals)

So that the name of the file remains correct in the module that's being run.

[issue4718] wsgiref package totally broken

2008-12-22 Thread Dmitry Vasiliev

New submission from Dmitry Vasiliev d...@hlabs.spb.ru:

It seems the wsgiref package was copied from Python 2.* without any
modifications. There are already 3 issues about that but they only
describe a part of the problem so I decided to start a new one. The
issues was:

http://bugs.python.org/issue3348
http://bugs.python.org/issue3795
http://bugs.python.org/issue4522

The attached patch fix the problem with the following changes:

- Fixed headers handling in wsgiref/simple_server.py;

- Fixed encoding problems. Now WSGI applications must return iterable
with bytes but start_response() allow status and headers as bytes and as
strings. wsgi.input file-like now use BytesIO instead of StringIO;

- Fixed tests;

- Updated documentation examples;

I haven't investigated, but in py3k print() has currently bits written

[issue4719] sys.exc_clear() not flagged in any way

2008-12-22 Thread Fabio Zadrozny

Fabio Zadrozny fab...@users.sourceforge.net added the comment:

When created it was already marked as a 2to3 issue (in the components),
so, for clarity, yes: it's a 2to3 issue (what should the user do with
that when porting... I think that the 2to3 should do something regarding
that... maybe just changing it for a 'pass'?).

Also, the docs say it was removed, but they don't leave clear that it's
not needed because no info is stored anymore (because that was needed
just to clear the frame that was kept alive when an exception was raised
-- so, note that I'm assuming that issue was fixed and it's not needed
anymore, but the docs don't make that clear)

Fabio Zadrozny fab...@users.sourceforge.net added the comment:

 2to3 doesn't deal with anything else that has been removed.

That seems a bit odd for me... isn't it the perfect place for that? (it
doesn't even need to change the code for a pass, but it could give the
user some warning about it at that specific line -- maybe with a pointer
to a place explaining why it was removed).

I think that if 2to3 flags it, it can make the porting cycle faster than
having to run the code (and expecting a huge code-coverage) to get those
-- especially as sys.exc_clear is mostly used in cases where you are
expecting some exception... and I believe not everyone gives as much
emphasis for exception cases as they'd for the cases in the 'regular flow'

[issue4704] Update pybench for python 3.0

2008-12-22 Thread Mark Dickinson

Mark Dickinson dicki...@gmail.com added the comment:

Thanks for the responses!

 I don't think should go into 3.0.1 - they are a new feature
 and not a bug fix.

But if these changes don't go into 3.0.1, and the removal of cmp does, 
that means that pybench won't run on 3.0.1.  It seems to me that we could 
make a strong case for this being a bugfix...

... or a good case for not removing cmp() from 3.0.1 :-)

I have a feeling that people are mixing up the reasons for removal
of the __cmp__ slot and the utility of the cmp() builtin. Those
two should be treated as separate issues, IMHO.

Anyway, like I said: the release manager should decide.

[issue4721] pythonw.exe crash in GU application(PythonWX)

2008-12-22 Thread George

New submission from George g...@mail.gr:

I have Python 2.6.1 in Windows Vista. It happened in Python 2.6 and I 
hoped it would be fixed. I don't know what happenes in other versions. 
When I open a file containing a python program(.py/.pyw and even 
one compiled with py2exe) made by using the PythonWX GUI programming 
libraries it crashes immediately after the mouse hovers over the window 
created by the program(spesifically in the area inside it). It happenes 
both when the program is a .py file and a .pyw file or one compiled 
with py2exe. I get a message that the program stopped working. 
Shouldn'nt I get a message about wrong code? It doesn't crash in the 
Python Shell, but it has happened ,too, a few times.

Do I do something wrong?
Is there something I should know?

The programs I use are not made by me(I can't yet make mine), but they 
are examples downloaded or copy-pasted. Here is one:

import wx
app = wx.PySimpleApp()
frame = wx.Frame(None,-1,Hello World)
frame.Show(True)
app.MainLoop()

Please tell me what is wrong or what I should do.

2. Walk to it in regedit;
3. Right-click on (Default) and select Modify binary data;
4. Leave everything blank and press OK;
5. Go to Python and execute this:
 import _winreg
 _winreg.QueryValue(_winreg.HKEY_CURRENT_USER, 'TestKey')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File stdin, line 1, in module
SystemError: ..\Objects\stringobject.c:4271: bad argument to internal
function

== What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect either returning '' or some ValueError indicating that source
string is malformed.

== What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1. Windows XP Professional SP2 English;
2. Tested on Python 2.5.2;
3. Tested on Python 2.6.1;
4. Tested on Stackless Python 2.5.2.

== Please provide any additional information below.
And yes, I know that this function is lame and everybody using it also
is lame, but it's not really a reason to include buggy functions, right?

[issue4718] wsgiref package totally broken

2008-12-22 Thread Phillip J. Eby

Phillip J. Eby p...@telecommunity.com added the comment:

If you want to change to using bytes, you're going to have to take it to
the Web-SIG and hash out a revision to PEP 333, which at the moment
requires the use of strings, period.

This has nothing to do with the desirability of bytes vs. strings; I am
sure that if Python had bytes from day 1, bytes would've been the way to
go with it.  But simply changing the reference library is not the way to
change the spec.

In the meantime, as far as I'm aware, there are two other patches
pending to address these issues, but I'm not in a position to assess
their readiness/correctness since I have yet to even download Py3K.  In
principle, I approve their approaches, so if someone else can handle the
code review, those fixes could in principle be put in without changing
the PEP.  But to put *this* patch in, the PEP would have to be changed.

What was called str in 2.x has become the bytes object in py3k.
What was called unicode in 2.x has become str in py3k.
(roughly)

Given the meaning of the term string and its possible acceptions have
dramatically changed between 2.x and py3k, how does this patch violate
the PEP more than any other?

Actually, the PEP says:

HTTP does not directly support Unicode, and neither does this
interface. All encoding/decoding must be handled by the
application; all strings passed to or from the server must be
standard Python *byte strings*, not Unicode objects.
[emphasis mine]

So, not accepting bytes in py3k is clearly a violation of the PEP!

 If you want to change to using bytes, you're going to have to take it

 What was called str in 2.x has become the bytes object in py3k.
 What was called unicode in 2.x has become str in py3k.
 (roughly)

Agreed, moreover it's time for Python 3.0.1 and we need to decide -
apply a patch or just remove wsgiref completely for now. Keep wsgiref
just as nonworking piece of code is the worse solution which can made
questionable all WSGI effort.

Given that old str has been replaced by bytes in Python 3 I think the
patch is a correct implementation of the PEP from the Python 3's point
of view. To avoid confusion note about the meaning of the term *string*
can be added to the PEP later.

[issue4723] os.path.basename error on directory names with numbers

2008-12-22 Thread Klemens Häckel

New submission from Klemens Häckel clic...@linuxmail.org:

I am using python for some backup tasks, and recently i found a problem
whe i have certain directory names.
Probably the problem is only in windows, however i would like You to know.
I verified the same behaviour in (WindowsXP, spanish, SP3) using Python
2.5.2 and also in 2.6.1 (installers from Python.org).

In my case i have directory names, beginning with year/month numbers.
Aparrently python is confusing something, so os.path.basename is not
working:

dd = 'C:\downloads\hacking\0812logcompress'
 os.path.basename(dd)
'hacking\x00812logcompress'
 dd = 'C:\downloads\hacking\logcompress'
 os.path.basename(dd)
'logcompress'

[issue4723] os.path.basename error on directory names with numbers

2008-12-22 Thread Tim Golden

Tim Golden m...@timgolden.me.uk added the comment:

You need to use raw strings or to use forward-slashes in your pathnames:

rc:\downloads\hacking\0812logcompress

or

c:/downloads/hacking/0812logcompress

The sequence \0 has a special meaning in strings, introducing an octal
escape, I think.

[issue4725] reporting file locations in egg (and other package) files

2008-12-22 Thread rocky bernstein

New submission from rocky bernstein ro...@gnu.org:

When listing a traceback or showing stack frames or implementing a
debugger (or a tool which wants to track the exact location of the
source code), how is one supposed to detect a file located inside an egg
or some other archive mechanism? 

There are a number of issues, I think. First, I think some sort of
consistent naming convention would be helpful. 

Here's an example of the current situation. I have a file called
tracer.py inside egg
/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/tracer-0.1.0-py2.5.egg/tracer.py
and I get an exception inside of that. The traceback shows this:

   File build/bdist.linux-i686/egg/tracer.py, line 216, in size

The file information comes from frame.f_code.co_filename and its
relation to a file is a bit nebulous since there is no file either in
the filesystem with that path suffix nor a file in an with that name.
(It's possible there was a file with that suffix at one time during the
build of the egg.)

So possibly this is a bug.

Via the __loader__ key in the tracer module's __dict__ hash (a 
zipimporter object) there is a _files hash which has a key tracer.py
with value
/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/tracer-0.1.0-py2.5.egg/tracer.py.
This seems to correspond to a file tracer.py in zip file:
/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/tracer-0.1.0-py2.5.egg 

Glomming the two parts together as one entity or one name is a bit weird
and means that things that work on files will have do some parsing to
figure out that this there is a member inside an archive (and egg here). 

PEP 302 has lots of interesting things in it such as a way to get the
file source text, but it doesn't specify uniform file *names* of either
the surrounding package/archive or the member inside that.

So possibly this is an omission or something that should be added.

Finally looking at linecache.py, the function update_cache() has a
routine to do some sort of filename resolution consulting loaders using
the API of PEP 302. Possibly the name resolution part (without reading
file data) might be made callable by itself so that it returns a
package/archive name and a package/archive member name.

[issue1524639] Fix Tkinter Tcl-commands memory-leaks

2008-12-22 Thread Guilherme Polo

Guilherme Polo ggp...@gmail.com added the comment:

I hope you are not too bored for me commenting on this again.

So, I have re-though about this issue today and decided to solve it
differently (and will include a patch here this time, don't worry about
mentions to external repo this time).
To solve the problem I replaced the tk.call method in the Tk so it can
remove registered commands in the call in case it fails. 

The other problems reported in this issue are also solved by it, and
others that weren't reported are too: Misc.selection_handle (just to
name one, but there are others) could leave a undesired item in
_tclCommands too.

Another advantage of this solution is that extensions benefit from it,
and they do not need to change their code (except if they are using a
collection of internal functions, which they shouldn't, affected by this
patch).

[issue4726] doctest gets line numbers wrong due to quotes in comments

2008-12-22 Thread guyer

New submission from guyer gu...@nist.gov:

My text editor places a comment block at the top of each source file with 
a block of information about the author, the project, license, etc. One 
(rather pointless) line of this block looks like

 # FILE: somefile.py

The re in `_find_lineno()` misinterprets this line as the beginning of the 
docstring. I believe the attached patch maintains the spirit of the re, 
while avoiding this false positive.

Phillip J. Eby p...@telecommunity.com added the comment:

To be quite clear: this change requires discussion on the Web-SIG and an
appropriate revision of the PEP.  Ideally, the patch should include the
necessary PEP revision.

The Web-SIG discussion regarding a switch to bytes should also take into
consideration the effects of running 2to3 on existing WSGI applications
and/or servers.  Will their code be converted to use bytes, or Unicode?

The previous choice to use Unicode was based on source compatibility
across Python implementations, so this shouldn't be thrown out on the
basis of simple expediency.

[issue3959] Add Google's ipaddr.py to the stdlib

2008-12-22 Thread Martin v. Löwis

Martin v. Löwis mar...@v.loewis.de added the comment:

 Now that 2.6 and 3.0 are out of the way, how should we move forward?

I think some committer needs to take charge and work with the authors
on merging the code. If pmoody wants commit access, that should be set
up, and he should add it himself in a commit-after-review manner (with
an actual patch, including documentation and tests).

If he doesn't want to do the integration, some committer needs to
volunteer - I personally won't (lack of time).

In any case, we would need a copyright form signed, unless Guido can
confirm that the code is covered by some agreement between Google and
the PSF.

 Will a PEP be required?

I doubt that; a quick announcement to python-dev might be sufficient
(in general, a PEP should only be done if dissent is likely). It
seems that Victor didn't actually disagree to integrating this
package; we should somehow encourage IPy users to review the code
and comment on the (possibly lack of) functionality.

Not necessarily. Windows supports forward slashes as path separators
just as well.

 to process as raw string.

You can consider avoiding the path separator by using os.path.join all
the time. There might still be places where you need to provide absolute
file names as literals in your source code, but those should be few.

 as well. 

Fair enough. So let's start with I guess the most important thing. 

PEP 302 describes an importer protocol. Given that, I don't understand
how I can reliably get full (package) information about where the
source code resides from a stack frame or code object. For code that
comes from packages like eggs (but not necessarily restricted to eggs
as there may be other packaging mechanisms), the information would
contain the package file
(e.g. /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/tracer-0.1.0-py2.5.egg), a
member inside that (e.g. tracer.py), and possibly loader/packaging
information (e.g. zipimporter).

For a specific mechanism like zipimporter, no doubt one can hack
something based on how the package mechanism is currently
implemented. But given there is an API for import hooks that package
mechanisms currently adhere to, shouldn't there also be some sort of API
for untangling what has gone on? 

A use case here is in a stack trace or a debugger where an error
occured. For example does this come from an egg? And if so, which one? 

Perhaps I have missed something in PEP 302, or perhaps this is defined
elsewhere. Please elucidate.


 When you split it up, please consider whether the things are
 bugs or wishes, and whether they apply to Python proper, or some other
 library (e.g. setuptools - eggs are not part of Python).

Ok. I'll probably add one more bug report for now see where things
go. Based on the outcome of these queries, I'll possibly add more. The
problem I have with splitting things up too soon is that I'm not sure
where the problem lies.

As stated above, I think the crux is that given that there are now
package mechanisms that bundle source code into a file, the notion of
a file location should be adjusted to include the package and/or
importer. If it turns out that there already is this notion, then it
could be that certain implementations aren't aware of it and/or don't
adhere to it.

[issue4727] pickle/copyreg doesn't support keyword only arguments in __new__

2008-12-22 Thread Erick Tryzelaar

New submission from Erick Tryzelaar idade...@users.sourceforge.net:

According to both of these bugs:

http://bugs.python.org/issue1398
http://bugs.python.org/issue4331

pickle can't pickle functools.partial objects. It looks the underlying 
reason is that objects that pickle can't handle objects with __new__ and 
keyword only arguments. To support this, would this require a new pickle 
protocol and a __getnewfullargs__ that returns a tuple and dict?

[issue1025540] urllib2 http auth

2008-12-22 Thread Senthil

Senthil orsent...@gmail.com added the comment:

This issue makes a request to implement, plain-text inurl password
authentication like https://user:passw...@host:port/ for HTTP Basic
Authentication.  for urllib2.

As per rfc3986, this is strongly discouraged and is deprecated.

See the section: 3.2.1.  User Information


Use of the format user:password in the userinfo field is
   deprecated.  Applications should not render as clear text any data
   after the first colon (:) character found within a userinfo
   subcomponent unless the data after the colon is the empty string
   (indicating no password).  Applications may choose to ignore or
   reject such data when it is received as part of a reference and
   should reject the storage of such data in unencrypted form.  The
   passing of authentication information in clear text has proven to be
   a security risk in almost every case where it has been used.


Also, this was reported on 2004-09-10! We do not have any other similar
requests inline.  AFAIK, current urllib2 will authenticate and fetch the
documents with HTTP Basic authentication when password is passed along
in the url like the case specifies. I do not what was the case in 2004.

My conclusion for this request is to Close it as either Invalid or
Wont Fix.

[issue4728] Endianness and universal builds problems

2008-12-22 Thread Cournapeau David

New submission from Cournapeau David da...@ar.media.kyoto-u.ac.jp:

I had some problems with python and universal builds related to the
WORDS_BIGENDIAN macro. Because universal builds are built in one pass
(one configure), the AC_C_ENDIAN cannot be used reliably. Example:

int main()
{
#ifdef WORDS_BIGENDIAN
printf(Big endian macro defined\n);
#else
printf(No big endian macro defined\n);
#endif

return 0;
}

If I build this against python 2.5, it prints no big endian macro (I
have an intel CPU), as expected. But with python 2.6.0 (official binary
from python.org), I get Big endian macro defined.

[issue4729] Documentation under 'pass' statement talks about exception very early.

2008-12-22 Thread Senthil

New submission from Senthil orsent...@gmail.com:

This is a new change in the documentation.

Tutorial - More Control Flow Tools - pass Statements

There is a new section which says:

However, as pass is silently ignored, a better choice may be to raise a
NotImplementedError exception:

While what the section says is correct, but its placement in the
documentation is inappropriate. The tutorial has not yet introduced the
reader to function and Exceptions, and this portion has squeezed its way
in between.

I feel, this needs to be rearranged. Georg, what is your thought?

[issue4660] multiprocessing.JoinableQueue task_done() issue

2008-12-22 Thread Brian

Brian br...@merrells.org added the comment:

Here are a few stabs at how this might be addressed.

1)  As originally suggested.  Allow task_done() to block waiting to 
acquire _unfinished_tasks.  This will allow the put() process to resume, 
release() _unfinished_tasks at which point task_done() will unblock.  No 
harm, no foul but you do lose some error checking (and maybe some 
performance?)

2)  One can't protect JoinableQueue.put() by simply acquiring _cond 
before calling Queue.put().  Fixed size queues will block if the queue 
is full, causing deadlock when task_done() can't acquire _cond.  The 
most obvious solution would seem to be reimplementing 
JoinableQueue.put() (not simply calling Queue.put()) and then inserting  
self._unfinished_tasks.release() into a protected portion.  Perhaps:

def put(self, obj, block=True, timeout=None):
assert not self._closed
if not self._sem.acquire(block, timeout):
raise Full

self._notempty.acquire()
self._cond.acquire()
try:
if self._thread is None:
self._start_thread()
self._buffer.append(obj)
self._unfinished_tasks.release()
self._notempty.notify()
finally:
self._cond.release()
self._notempty.release()

We may be able to get away with not acquiring _cond as _notempty would 
provide some protection.   However its relationship to get() isn't 
entirely clear to me so I am not sure if this would be sufficient.
