[issue46164] New `both()` operator for matching multiple variables to one

2021-12-23 Thread Billy


New submission from Billy :

A new `both()` operator for matching multiple variables to one at the same time.

Currently,
```py
if a == 1 and b == 1:
...
```

With a `both()` operator, it can be done as follows (concept):
```py
if both(a, b) == 1:
...
```

Why? 
-> With the increasing number of variables, it may be hard to compare each of 
them at once, hence this operator can help a lot in such situations. 
Of course, using lists appropriately can solve this issue easily, but a 
general-direct method for achieving this would be a lot helpful. This also 
makes the code more simplistic and easily readable and understandable.



*Sorry for the bad formatting if markdown is not supported for this comment 
section, I couldn't find it mentioned anywhere in the python developer's guide. 
Hence I'm assuming it is supported since it's a common and highly needed 
feature nowadays.

[issue22107] tempfile module misinterprets access denied error on Windows

2019-04-23 Thread Billy McCulloch

Billy McCulloch  added the comment:

I stand by the patch file I previously submitted on 2016-05-04. A more detailed 
analysis / description of my reasoning follows.

Change 1 in _get_default_tempdir:
A PermissionError is thrown on Windows if you attempt to create a file whose 
filename matches an existing directory. As the code currently stands, the `if` 
statement checks whether the proposed file's *parent* directory is a directory 
(which it is, or a FileNotFoundError would have been thrown), instead of 
whether the proposed filename conflicts with an existing directory. The edited 
expression is really a typo that, in the context of the code block, always 
evaluates `True`.
Here’s what we’re now saying in the `if` block: when a PermissionError is 
raised, if we’re on Windows (the only currently supported platform to throw 
nonsense errors at us) AND the filename we chose simply conflicts with an 
existing directory AND we supposedly have write access to the parent directory, 
then we were just unlucky with the chosen name and should try again in the same 
parent directory. (I say supposedly because Windows seems to erroneously report 
True on this check, even when we don’t have write access. I wouldn’t be 
surprised if this last check does something useful in certain contexts, I just 
don’t know what they are.)

Change 2 in _mkstemp_inner:
Same as above for Change 1. While _get_default_tempdir uses this code block to 
make sure the system tempdir is really writable, and _mkstemp_inner does it so 
that a file descriptor can be returned, the result and arguments are the same.

Change 3 in mkdtemp:
For _get_default_tempdir and _mkstemp_inner, the blocks of code in question are 
creating temporary files. As such, they need to handle the oddball case for 
Windows where attempts to create a file with a filename which conflicts with an 
existing directory name result in a PermissionError. The same block of error 
handling code is copied in mkdtemp, even though this function never tries to 
create a file – it only tries to create a directory. As such, in the case that 
we try to create a directory with a name that already exists (whether as a file 
or a directory), we wouldn't be dealing with a PermissionError, we'd have a 
FileExistsError, which is already handled in mkdtemp by the preceding lines. 
The only way I’ve seen a PermissionError crop up for a call to mkdir on Windows 
is if the user doesn’t have permission to create filesystem objects in the 
parent directory. This is the intended usage of a PermissionError, so no 
special handling needed is required. Remember, a PermissionError shouldn’t 
happen if mkdtemp is called without a `dir` kwarg, because the _sanitize_params 
will invoke _get_default_tempdir, which will check to ensure that the parent 
directory is writable. As such, this block of code was superfluous, and the 
patch should not raise PermissionError in user code where it previously was 
caught.

[issue28274] asyncio does not call exception handler if task stored

2016-09-25 Thread Billy Foster

New submission from Billy Foster:

I found a very strange bug in asyncio where whether exception handlers are 
called depends on whether a task is stored.

To illustrate, the following code works as expected, printing out that it made 
it to the exception handler:

import asyncio
async def run():
raise RuntimeError
def exception_handler(loop, context):
print('Made it to exception handler.')
loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
loop.set_exception_handler(exception_handler)
loop.create_task(run())
loop.run_forever()

However, if you take that exact same code but store the task that is returned 
from create_task, the exception handler will NOT be called:

import asyncio
async def run():
raise RuntimeError
def exception_handler(loop, context):
print('Made it to exception handler.')
loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
loop.set_exception_handler(exception_handler)
task = loop.create_task(run())
loop.run_forever()

This is completely bizarre, and I have been unable to track down the reason.

[issue22107] tempfile module misinterprets access denied error on Windows

2016-05-03 Thread Billy McCulloch

Billy McCulloch added the comment:

I've also run into this bug on Windows. In my case, the tempdir path includes 
directories on a network share, which I lack write access permissions to. 
Python tries to generate a *lot* of files, and never figures out it should move 
on to another directory. The attached patch for tempdir.py resolves my issue.

In _get_default_tempdir() and _mkstemp_inner(), you want to know if the 
filename you tried to create already exists as a directory, not whether the 
parent directory is a directory – that's handled in _get_default_tempdir().

In mkdtemp(), attempting to create a directory with the same name as an 
existing directory does not throw a PermissionError, so the code is superfluous.

[issue12978] Figure out extended attributes on BSDs

2015-07-20 Thread Billy Foster

Billy Foster added the comment:

Is there any chance of getting this finalized?  I have been using William Orr's 
patch as a workaround for months now, but it would be nice to not have to 
manually apply it each version bump...

I added a patch for the resolution of the issue but it didn't work. You can see
