So it looks like both list and tuple are about within 5% of using co_extra directly. Using a tuple instead of a list is about a wash except for make_v2 where list is 1.4x slower for some reason (which I didn't dig into). I would say that using a tuple and copying the tuple on updates makes sens

def a(): x = 4 y = 2 def b(): print y, locals() print locals() b() a() in CPython prints: {'y': 2, 'x': 4, 'b': } 2 {'y': 2} I'm wondering if it's intentional that these don't print d

We've noticed a strange occurance on Python 2.4.3 w/ the floating point value 1.79769313486232e+308 and how it interacts w/ a .pyc. Given x.py: def foo(): print str(1.79769313486232e+308) print str(1.79769313486232e+308) == "1.#INF" The 1st time you run this you get the correct

Yeah, continue inside the finally block is illegal. If you don't have the extra try/except nesting then continue is detected as a syntax error. -Original Message- From: Dennis Allison [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, August 16, 2006 10:22 AM To: Josiah Carlson Cc:

[Python-Dev] 2.4 & 2.5 beta 3 crash

2006-08-16 Thread Dino Viehland
We've been working on fixing some exception handling bugs in IronPython where we differ from CPython. Along the way we ran into this issue which causes CPython to crash when the code below is run. It crashes on both 2.4 and 2.5 beta 3. The code's technically illegal, but it probably shouldn't

I've also opened a bug for supporting __getslice__ in IronPython. Do you want to help develop Dynamic languages on CLR? (http://members.microsoft.com/careers/search/details.aspx?JobID=6D4754DE-11F0-45DF-8B78-DC1B43134038) -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTE

On the recursion limits: Until beta 6 IronPython didn't have proper support for limiting recursion depth. There was some minor support there, but it wasn't right. In beta 6 we have full support for limiting recursion depth, but by default we allow infinite recursion. If the user explicitly s

2006-04-06 Thread Dino Viehland
Well, CPython at least still enforces the padding, even if it's ignoring the invalid characters. Here's Seo's repro 'simplified' to go straight to binascii (just to get to the root API): >>> import binascii >>> binascii.a2b_base64('%') '' And then sending a valid character, invalid padding: >
