ElementTree ; change namespace
Hello the list, I have question about ElementTree module, I didn't find a specific list so I post here. I hope I'm not wrong. I would like to know how to change the namespace URI of all the Element of my XML tree without changing anything else. I want that because I have to compare 2 XML trees, so I walk trought the first tree, and each time I found an element, I delete it (with the Element.remove() function) on the second tree. This way, I can see if there is remaining or lacking elements in my second tree. The problem is that my two trees may not have the same namespace, so the Element.remove() function doesn't work. That's why I want to change the namespace. Also, The Element.remove() documentation says it compares element with their identity ; what is exactly an element identity ? Thank you, Ben -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

This is a waste of time and a pain to maintain, and more over it doesn't make any sense since Python doesn't force you to put everything in classes. I know that packages doesn't exists in python, Did you actually read the doc ? While Python's packages are not the same thing as Java's, they do exist. http://docs.python.org/tut/node8.html#SECTION00840 they are modules instead. May I create specific module for each "group of class" ? The usual way to get cohesive modules is indeed to group closely related objects (classes, functions, etc) in a same module. My application follow the MVC paradigm, so basically, I've a package Model, a package View, and a package Controller. If your app is small, having _modules_ models, views and controllers should be enough. So, what are best practices for organizing files and folders in a small python project ? The best practice is to keep things simple, as usual. Thank you all for your good advices and links. I'm new to python and I have yet a lot of things to learn ! Now, I would like to take a look to a well coded wxPython application. Could anybody indicate a project that I could take as reference for standard python coding style ?

Oh... yes, that's it ; I have a file named re.py !
Ouch, sorry for this stupid question, and thank you for this evident
answer. I didn't knew that it was possible to import a module this way...
Thank you for the fast answer !

What's the hell ?? I'm just importing the re module. The code showed, is
a previous test code, that seems to be buffered and that make an error.
Each call to re module generate that error.
How can I workaround ? Is there is a way to flush or restart python
interpreter. Is it a bug in python ??
Thanks !

OK, so if I understand well what you said, using queue allow to be sure
that the data is passed in totality before coninuing with next
instruction. That make sense.
Using thread and queue seems to be very more slow than using files
redirection with bash. I'll see if it make a great load average and/or
I/O time.
Thanks again for your help Bryan.

Could you explain me why you use a queue instead of a simple array for
getting the piped var ?

You're right, I just made a test with a 10 MB input stream, and it hangs exactly like you said (on cat.stdin.write(myStdin))... I don't want to use disk files. In reality, this script was previously done in bash using disk files, but I had problems with that solution (the files wasn't always cleared, and sometimes, I've found a part of previous input at the end of the next input.) That's why I want to use python, just to not use disk files. Could you give me more information / examples about the two solutions you've proposed (thread or asynchronous I/O) ? Thank you !

Thank you Marko, it's exactly what I need.
And if somebody need it : to get the stdout in a var (myNewVar), not in
the shell :
cat = subprocess.Popen('cat', shell = True, stdin = subprocess.PIPE,
stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
cat.stdin.write(myVar)
cat.stdin.close()
cat.wait()
myNewVar = cat.stdout.read()
Is it correct ?

How to send a var to stdin of an external software
Hi the list,
I need to send a var to stdin of an external soft ("cat" command for
example).
How can I do this ? I would like a function like that :
theFunction ('cat -', stdin=myVar)
I don't need to get any return value.
Another related question : Is there's a limitation of var size ? I would
have var up to 10 MB.
Thanks !
