[issue14899] Naming conventions and guidelines for packages and namespace packages

2012-05-25 Thread Benoît Bryon

Benoît Bryon ben...@marmelune.net added the comment:

I didn't provided the patch because the work is still at early stage. I planned 
to provide a patch when the development branch is quite mature.
I created the issue early so that other people can contribute.

But I maybe I'd better read PEP 1 again... because it looks like a PEP (which 
may lead back to this ticket when it's time for implementation).

I'm to post a proposal to python-list or python-ideas mailing lists.

Hynek Schlawack h...@ox.cx added the comment:

Seems to work fine in Python 3.2+.

Two possibilities:

 1. document ca_certs is str only
 2. encode with sys.getfilesystemencoding() if unicode

Would have to be fixed in ssl.get_server_certificate too and maybe even more, I 
did just a quick glance.

I'm -1 w.r.t. applying this to 3.2 or 2.7, it is a functional change that isn't

[issue14910] argparse disable abbreviation

2012-05-25 Thread Jens Jährig

New submission from Jens Jährig jaehrig.j...@googlemail.com:

argparse uses per default abbreviation in unambiguous cases.

I don't want abbreviation and i'd like to disable it.
But theres no option to do this.
http://docs.python.org/library/argparse.html#argument-abbreviations
Only to override the Handler like suggested here: 
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10750802/python-argparse-disable-abbreviation/10751356#10751356


# Example  #


import argparse
parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
parser.add_argument('--send', action='store_true')
parser.parse_args(['--se']) # returns Namespace(send=True)

But i want it only to be true when the full parameter is supplied. To prevent 
user errors.

[issue3177] Add shutil.open

2012-05-25 Thread Larry Hastings

Larry Hastings la...@hastings.org added the comment:

 As an example, ``os.startfile(a.py)`` will usually run `a.py`
 in the Python interpreter, while ``xdg-open a.py`` it will
 usually open the source code in an editor on Linux.

Well, so how about on UNIX shutil.launch (or whatever it's called) first checks 
to see if we're referring to a file.  If we are, check to see if it's marked 
executable.  If it is, execute it under a shell.  Failing *that* we could run 
xdg-open where available.

[issue14913] tokenize the source to manage Pdb breakpoints

2012-05-25 Thread Xavier de Gaye

New submission from Xavier de Gaye xdeg...@gmail.com:

Pdb behavior is not consistent with GNU gdb behavior when setting a
breakpoint on an empty line, a comment or a multi-line statement (the
breakpoint is ignored by pdb on a non-first line of a multi-line
statement and rejected on empty lines or comment lines).  It is also
confusing that, when a breakpoint is set on a function definition, pdb
also stops at the function definition execution when the module is
being loaded.

Pdb performance:

When a breakpoint is set in a module, pdb sets the trace function on
all the frames whose function is defined in this module (and the trace
function is run for each line in the function), regardless of the fact
that the function may not have any breakpoint.

Pdb breakpoint management problems:
---
See issue 14789, issue 14792, issue 14795, issue 14808 and issue 14912.

Pdb rejects setting a breakpoint in a function or method defined in a
non imported submodule of a package, but accepts to set it when the
non imported module is not in a package.  For example with
'asyncore.close_all' and 'logging.info':

$ python
Python 3.2.2 (default, Dec 27 2011, 17:35:55) 
[GCC 4.3.2] on linux2
Type help, copyright, credits or license for more
information.
 import pdb; pdb.run('def foo(): pass')
 string(1)module()
(Pdb) break asyncore.close_all
Breakpoint 1 at /usr/local/lib/python3.2/asyncore.py:580
(Pdb) break logging.info
*** The specified object 'logging.info' is not a function or was
not found along sys.path.

When a breakpoint is set at the line number of a function definition,
the algorithm used to find the first statement of the function (the
actual breakpoint) is not robust, so that when another breakpoint is
also set at this fuction using the function name instead of the line
number, then this last breakpoint hides the first one.


Use tokenize:
-
One solution is to parse the module source to build a description of
each function and method defined in the source:
The description is the set of line_set of a function.  A line_set
is either the line(s) of a function definition statement, or a
group of consecutive statement lines, or a group of the physical
lines of a logical line.

The attached patch implements this solution with std lib tokenize:

When a breakpoint is set at an empty line or a comment in a
function, pdb stops at the next statement. When a breakpoint is
set at a multi-line statement (but not a function definition
statement), pdb stops at the first line of the multi-line
statement.  When a breakpoint is set at a line in a function
definition or at a function name, pdb stops at the first statement
in this function.  Attempting to set a breakpoint on a line
outside a function definition is rejected with an error message.
Pdb does not stop anymore at the function definition execution
when the module is loaded.

The trace function is only set on frames whose function has one
breakpoint or more.

The patch fixes issue 14789, issue 14792, issue 14795, issue 14808
and issue 14912.  The patch fixes the problem of setting a
breakpoint in a function or method defined in package submodule
when the submodule is not imported.  The patch fixes the problem
described above of having a breakpoint set by function name hide a
breakpoint set by line number.  The patch includes test cases for
all those issues.

Parser performance: a file is only parsed when a breakpoint is set
in this file (and parsed only once of course).  Some performance
results of the parser on a laptop:

* rpdb2.py from the rpdb2 project: 14500 lines parsed in 2.0
  seconds
* a more reasonable (but still large) file size with
  turtle.py from the std library: 4100 lines parsed in 0.6
  second

[issue3561] Windows installer should add Python and Scripts directories to the PATH environment variable

2012-05-25 Thread Jim Jewett

Jim Jewett jimjjew...@gmail.com added the comment:

Chris Lambacher

On Wed, Apr 25, 2012 at 10:50 AM, Martin v. Löwis  added the comment:

 lambacck: I'm -1, but I'm willing to yield ...
 regular users won't have to deal with negative
 consequences that enabling this by default may have.

 I'm quite opposed to your proposed conditional approach;
 I think this will be highly confusing to users.

Could you clarify what you think will be confusing?  I see (a slight
variant of) Chris Lambacher's conditional approach as the obvious best
choice, if it is feasible.

(1)  The default is What you are already doing.
(2)  If this is your only install, then assume you do want it on the
path, as many newbies would.

The only tweak is that if there is already a path to an
*older-but-compatible* version, then its path entry should be replaced
(not added to).

Or are you concerned that there may be differences of opinion on
whether or not 3.4 is sufficiently compatible with 3.3, and that
making the default context-sensitive will cause this to be Python's
problem, rather than the application's?

[issue14914] pysetup installed distribute despite dry run option being specified

2012-05-25 Thread Nick Coghlan

New submission from Nick Coghlan ncogh...@gmail.com:

After approving the pyvenv PEP, I decided to play around with the other big 
packaging enhancement in 3.3: pysetup.

The following command installed distribute:

pysetup3.3 -n install distribute

The -n *should* have caused that to be a dry run, but it actually installed 
the module.

[issue14915] pysetup may leave a package in a half-installed state

2012-05-25 Thread Nick Coghlan

New submission from Nick Coghlan ncogh...@gmail.com:

Do make altinstall from trunk.

Try running pysetup3.3 install distutils2

This won't work properly, because distutils2 uses Python 2 syntax.

However, after running that command:

pysetup3.3 remove distutils2 complains that distutils2 is not installed, but 
import distutils2 works at the 3.3. command prompt

 does anyone think something like this dialog http://i.imgur.com/18zPD.png be 
 helpful?

yes.

 After choosing the directory to install to and before choosing
 the features, it's a simple dialog explaining that the Path
 feature is available and what it does.

But it might make sense to put that on the same screen where you
choose whether or not to check the box, even if that box (ands it
checkedness state) also gets carried over to a choose-all-options
screen.

[issue14916] PyRun_InteractiveLoop fails to run interactively when using a Linux pty that's not tied to stdin/stdout

2012-05-25 Thread Kevin Barry

New submission from Kevin Barry ta0k...@gmail.com:

I have been trying to get PyRun_InteractiveLoop to run on a pty (Linux) without 
replacing stdin and stdout with that pty; however, it seems like Python (2.6.6) 
is hard-coded to only run interactively on stdin and stdout.


Compile the attached program with:

 gcc `python-config --cflags` working.c -o working `python-config --ldflags`

and run it with:

 ./working xterm -S/0

and you should see that there is no interactivity in the xterm that's opened.


Compile the attached file with:

 gcc -DREADLINE_HACK `python-config --cflags` working.c -o working 
 `python-config --ldflags` -lreadline -lcurses

and run it with:

 ./working xterm -S/0

to see how it runs with my best attempt to get it to function properly with a 
readline hack. Additionally, try running:

 ./working xterm -S/0  /dev/null
 ./working xterm -S/0  /dev/null

both of which should cause interactivity in the xterm to fail, indicating that 
Python is checking stdin/stdout for tty status when determining if it should 
run interactively (i.e. it's not checking the tty status of the file passed to 
PyRun_InteractiveLoop.)


Am I somehow using this function wrong? I've been trying to work around this 
problem for a while, and I don't think I should be using readline hacks 
(especially since they don't port to other OSes with ptys, e.g. OS X.) I even 
tried to patch the call to PyOS_Readline in tok_nextc (Parser/tokenizer.c) to 
use tok-fp instead of stdin/stdout, which caused I/O to use the pty but it 
still failed to make interactivity work.


Thanks!

Kevin Barry

[issue14917] Make os.symlink on Win32 detect if target is directory

2012-05-25 Thread Larry Hastings

New submission from Larry Hastings la...@hastings.org:

The prototype for os.symlink on Windows adds a target_is_directory flag, 
which indicates whether or not the destination is a directory.

Surely we could detect that and pass in the correct value ourselves?  A quick 
GetFileAttributes() call would do.  I doubt this would make the function much 
slower, as it's about to write to that area of the disk anyway.  And if 
os.symlink is a performance-critical function on Windows I'll eat my hat.

Since os.symlink support for Windows shipped in 3.2, we can't get rid of the 
argument at the same time.  But we could just ignore it, and since it's marked 
as optional people could start removing it, and maybe we could deprecate it.

[issue14901] Python Windows FAQ is Very Outdated

2012-05-25 Thread Michael Driscoll

Michael Driscoll m...@pythonlibrary.org added the comment:

Here are a few proposals that spring to mind:

1a) Update all Windows references to Windows 7 or Vista/7. We can include XP, 
but I think Microsoft is dropping support next year.

1b) Update all Python references to the current version instead of 2.2 and 2.3. 
I don't know why there's a mix of two different versions in the document anyway.

2) Drop the question How do I make Python scripts executable? Python files 
have been working on Windows for me since 2.5 just by double-clicking them. I 
don't see any reason to mention the command-file hack.

3) Drop the question Why does Python sometimes take so long to start? I 
personally haven't seen this happen except with some scripts that actually have 
a lot of stuff to load, like certain wxPython stuff I've written.

4) Change the question Where is Freeze for Windows? to the question How do I 
make Python scripts into an executable? and then drop all mention of ye olde 
Freeze and put some information in there pointing to PyInstaller, py2exe 
(last updated 2008, so maybe not?), cx_freeze, bb_freeze or whatever. 

5) I don't see any mention of PyWin32 or comtypes in the FAQ. While ctypes has 
a brief mention in the os.kill() section, it's not really explained. We might 
want to mention those.

6) We might want to drop the os.popen() stuff since that was deprecated / 
removed in favor of subprocess, right?

7) Drop the questions about Windows 95/98 issues

8) I don't think the question How do I extract the downloaded documentation on 
Windows? is even applicable any more

9) Is the question Missing cw3215mt.dll (or missing cw3215.dll) still 
relevant? I've never experienced that on any machine.

[issue14852] json and ElementTree parsers misbehave on streams containing more than a single object

2012-05-25 Thread Éric Araujo

Éric Araujo mer...@netwok.org added the comment:

I am not sure the parsers should be lenient.  One could argue that it’s the 
stream that is broken if it contains non-compliant XML or JSON.  Can you tell 
more about the use case?

[issue14901] Python Windows FAQ is Very Outdated

I know Python 3.x still runs on XP too, but should we continue to mention it in

see if people had any well thought out arguments one way or the other on these

As for this freeze module, I can't find it even in Python 2.4's Tools folder or

[issue14852] json and ElementTree parsers misbehave on streams containing more than a single object

2012-05-25 Thread Frederick Ross

Frederick Ross madhad...@gmail.com added the comment:

Antoine, It's not iterative parsing, it's a sequence of XML docs or json 
objects.

Eric, the server I'm retrieving from, for real time searches, steadily produces 
a stream of (each properly formed) XML or json documents containing new search 
results. However, at the moment I have to edit the stream on the fly to wrap an 
outer tag around it and remove any DTD in inner elements, or I can't use the 
XML parser. Such a workaround isn't possible with the json parser, since it has 
no iterative parsing mode.

 in our documentation? I don't know. Part
 of the reason I wrote up all that was to see if people had any well thought 
 out arguments one way or the other on these things.

In my opinion it is simple.  PEP 11 defines when platforms are abandoned.  If a 
stable version like 3.2 supports XP, then its doc should say so.

 Should the patch for 1b replace Python 2.2 with Python 2.7/3.2 or just Python 
 3.2?

One patch for 2.7 can modernize the code, but as Brian said there is no reason 
to use 2.7-only idioms; just remove the really old or inelegant things.  (I 
haven’t looked at the FAQ to see what exactly is outdated.)

The patch for 3.2 will have to use 3.x syntax.  Note that you can make one of 
the two patches and let the committer port.

[issue14852] json and ElementTree parsers misbehave on streams containing more than a single object

2012-05-25 Thread R. David Murray

R. David Murray rdmur...@bitdance.com added the comment:

I think it is perfectly reasonable for a parser to leave the file pointer in 
some undefined further location into the file when it detects extra stuff and 
produces an error message.  One can certainly argue that producing that error 
message is a feature (detect badly formed documents).  

I also think that your use case is a perfectly reasonable one, but I think a 
mode that supports your use case would be an enhancement.

[issue3177] Add shutil.open

2012-05-25 Thread Hobs

Hobs hobsonl...@gmail.com added the comment:

Could even add an `operation` parameter to let the caller select actions,
including 'auto'  implemented as Larry suggests. Sometimes you feel like
trusting the user's xdg-open preferences/settings. Sometimes you don't.
Easy enough to let the caller choose, rather than the OS.

operation in ['auto', 'run', 'edit', 'display', 'browse', 'explore',
'share', 'send', 'like', 'email', 'open', 'xdg-open', ...] # can
be incrementally added/implemented

Each op requires 1 conditional and gives a lot more utility without
requiring much more launch/action code that hasn't already been
tested/debugged on all relevant platforms. And the `operation` parameter is
a semi-standard used by MS, easing the transition for Win-devs migrating
gui code to python and linux (or cross-platform implementations).

On Fri, May 25, 2012 at 4:40 AM, Larry Hastings rep...@bugs.python.orgwrote:


 Larry Hastings la...@hastings.org added the comment:

  As an example, ``os.startfile(a.py)`` will usually run `a.py`
  in the Python interpreter, while ``xdg-open a.py`` it will
  usually open the source code in an editor on Linux.

 Well, so how about on UNIX shutil.launch (or whatever it's called) first
 checks to see if we're referring to a file.  If we are, check to see if
 it's marked executable.  If it is, execute it under a shell.  Failing
 *that* we could run xdg-open where available.

[issue14852] json and ElementTree parsers misbehave on streams containing more than a single object

2012-05-25 Thread Frederick Ross

Frederick Ross madhad...@gmail.com added the comment:

In the case of files, sure, it's fine. The error gives me the offset, and I can 
go pull it out and buffer it, and it's fine. Plus XML is strict about having 
only one document per file.

For streams, none of this is applicable. I can't seek in a streaming network 
connection. If the parser leaves it in an unusable state, then I lose 
everything that may follow. It makes Python unusable in certain, not very rare, 
cases of network programming.

I'll just add that Haskell's Parsec does this right, and should be used as an 
example.

R. David Murray rdmur...@bitdance.com added the comment:

Well, if the stream isn't seekable then I don't see how it can be left in any 
state other than the same one it leaves a file (read ahead as much as it read 
to generate the error).  So unfortunately by our backward compatibility rules I 
still think this will be a new feature.

[issue14901] Python Windows FAQ is Very Outdated

2012-05-25 Thread Michael Driscoll

Michael Driscoll m...@pythonlibrary.org added the comment:

Okay. Here are a couple from 
http://docs.python.org/faq/windows.html#how-do-i-run-a-python-program-under-windows:

You may also find that you have a Start-menu entry such as Start ‣ Programs ‣ 
Python 2.2 ‣ Python (command line)

Then just a little farther down are several example paths with 
c:\Python23\python


Then in 
http://docs.python.org/faq/windows.html#how-can-i-embed-python-into-a-windows-application
 there's the following line:

Do _not_ build Python into your .exe file directly. On Windows, Python must be 
a DLL to handle importing modules that are themselves DLL’s. (This is the first 
key undocumented fact.) Instead, link to pythonNN.dll; it is typically 
installed in C:\Windows\System. NN is the Python version, a number such as “23” 
for Python 2.3.


In 
http://docs.python.org/faq/windows.html#pyrun-simplefile-crashes-on-windows-but-not-on-unix-why
 there's this line:

The Python 1.5.* DLLs (python15.dll) are all compiled with MS VC++ 5.0 and 
with multithreading-DLL options (/MD).


I see fixed 
http://docs.python.org/faq/windows.html#how-do-i-emulate-os-kill-in-windows as 
it mentions BOTH Python 2.7 and 3.2
