[issue23067] Export readline forced_update_display
Martin Panter added the comment: There are actually a few other patches open adding wrappers for rl_forced_update_display(): * Issue 1175004: From 2005, other APIs as well * Issue 24727: Includes documentation As well as the documentation, I think it would be good to add a test case for new functionality if possible. -- nosy: +vadmium stage: - needs patch versions: +Python 3.6 -Python 3.4 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue23067 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue23067] Export readline forced_update_display
Olivier Matz added the comment: By the way, I have my own implementation of the patch that did before checking the issue tracker. Instead of adding an argument to readline.redisplay(), it adds a new function readline.forced_update_display(). I attach the patch for reference, I don't know what is the preferred way to add this feature. -- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file38163/readline_add_forced_update_display.patch ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue23067 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue23067] Export readline forced_update_display
Olivier Matz added the comment: Hi, I'm also interrested in this feature. Indeed, exporting rl_forced_update_display() is the only way I've found to make readline.set_completion_display_matches_hook() working properly. Without forcing the redisplay, the prompt is not displayed. This seems to be the proper function to call, because that's the one called at the end of display_matches() in libreadline code, which is the default function for displaying matches. The attached file is a simple example code derived from http://pymotw.com/2/readline/ that shows that the patch is working. -- nosy: +zer0 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file38162/test-rdline.py ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue23067 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue23067] Export readline forced_update_display
New submission from Chris Hand: The current implementation of readline implements the redisplay function, but not the forced version. This patch maintains the current behavior as the default, but also allows a bool to be passed which, if True, calls rl_forced_update_display instead. -- components: Extension Modules files: readline_redisplay_force.patch keywords: patch messages: 232757 nosy: dexteradeus priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Export readline forced_update_display type: enhancement versions: Python 3.4 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file37473/readline_redisplay_force.patch ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue23067 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
