Re: Python 2.5 nested auth functions in publisher.

2006-10-29 Thread Graham Dumpleton
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.

__auth__

function __auth__ at 0x01159830

I am curious as to the hasattr(__auth__, 'co_name') section. Is  
there

any case where this is not true? (and does it make sense to say
found_auth = 1 if it isn't?)


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

I guess time will tell.
