Re: Python 2.5 nested auth functions in publisher.
Got access to Python 2.5 finally. My test script works on it so they have fixed the ordering issue. 2.5 (r25:51908, Oct 29 2006, 01:52:52) [GCC 3.3.3 20040412 (Red Hat Linux 3.3.3-7)] () ('req', '__auth__', '__access__', '__auth_realm__') 1 __auth__ (1, code object __auth__ at 0xb7dbdbf0, file hack.py, line 7) __access__ (1, code object __access__ at 0xb7dbd7b8, file hack.py, line 9) __auth_realm__ (1, 'REALM') Have thus committed some changes back into mod_python for it now, so should pass tests okay on Python 2.5.

The co_name check is making sure it is a code object as opposed to a dictionary or some other constant. See: http://www.modpython.org/live/current/doc-html/hand-pub-alg- auth.html for what __auth__ can be. Actually, I am partly wrong about that, when nesting these inside of a function they must be functions or a constant, they can't be a dictionary. The documentation even states this: Note that this technique will also work if __auth__ or __access__ is a constant, but will not work if they are a dictionary or a list. What I have found though is that even in Python 2.3.5, the names can be found in co_varnames. The problem is that in Python 2.3.5, where the names appear in co_varnames, they aren't in the same order as they appear in co_names or as required for indexing into co_consts which looks like a bug to me. The question now is whether in Python 2.5 the names appear in co_varnames in the correct order or not. If they aren't in the correct order and it is still broken, makes it impossible for it to work. Can you run the following test program and see if you get what would be expected. def handler(req): def __auth__(req, user, password): return 1 def __access__(req, user): return 1 __auth_realm__ = 'REALM' func_code = handler.func_code print func_code.co_names print func_code.co_varnames print func_code.co_argcount print def lookup(name): i = None if name in func_code.co_names: names = func_code.co_names i = list(names).index(name) elif func_code.co_argcount len(func_code.co_varnames): names = func_code.co_varnames[func_code.co_argcount:] if name in names: i = list(names).index(name) if i is not None: return (1, func_code.co_consts[i+1]) return (0, None) print '__auth__', lookup('__auth__') print '__access__', lookup('__access__') print '__auth_realm__', lookup('__auth_realm__') On Python 2.3.5 I get: ('__auth__', '__access__', '__auth_realm__') ('req', '__access__', '__auth_realm__', '__auth__') 1 __auth__ (1, code object __auth__ at 0x6a8a0, file hack.py, line 2) __access__ (1, code object __access__ at 0x70660, file hack.py, line 4) __auth_realm__ (1, 'REALM') Thanks.

Unless they have really screwed things around, co_varnames is specifically for function argument names and is unlikely to contained nested constant names. If it did, then I would expect a lot of the publisher code to break in other ways as it uses co_varnames for the very specific purpose of matching form parameters against function arguments. I guess time will tell. Anyway, time for me to sleep. :-) Graham
