[issue6830] Some uniformness in defaultdict
New submission from Toshihiro Kamiya t-kam...@aist.go.jp: I found the syntax of collections.defaultdict is confusing, at least to me. When I need a defaultdict of int, that is, a defaultdict which contains int objects, I can write simply: a = defaultdict(int) However, when I want a defaultdict of defaultdict of something, I can't write: d = defaultdict(defaultdict(int)) This raises TypeError. I understand the argument of defaultdict is not a type (or class), but a factory by definition. So I should to write: d = defaultdict(lambda: defaultdict(int)) But this syntax is somehow confusing to me. Am I missing some important feature of defaultdict? The workaround that I've found is: import collections class __Helper(object): def __getitem__(self, ctor): return lambda: collections.defaultdict(lambda: ctor()) genericdefaultdict = __Helper() This helper introduce some generics flavor in defaultdict. The above cases can be spelt out: a = genericdefaultdict[int]() d = genericdefaultdict[genericdefaultdict[int]]() -- components: Library (Lib) files: ddh.py messages: 92193 nosy: t-kamiya severity: normal status: open title: Some uniformness in defaultdict type: feature request versions: Python 2.6 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file14824/ddh.py ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue6830 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue1766304] improve xrange.__contains__
Mark Dickinson dicki...@gmail.com added the comment: The trunk patch is also unacceptable in its current form: 1. there are no docs or tests 2. keyval, start, step and end should have type long, not type int (as Antoine already mentioned) 3. the expression ((keyval - start) % step) can overflow, leading to undefined behaviour (e.g., wrong results, segfaults, strange effects from gcc optimizations that assume no overflow). For example, with the patch, on Linux/x86-64, I get: x = xrange(-20, 20, 5) 10 in x False This should be relatively easy to fix: e.g., if you already know that step 0 and start = keyval and keyval stop, then '(unsigned long)keyval - (unsigned long)start' is safe from overflow. 4. the containment check only works for ints: with the patch, I get: x = xrange(10) 4 in x True 4L in x False 4.0 in x False but without the patch applied, all these return True. It's possible that it's worth special-casing integer inputs for the sake of speed, but I don't think the behaviour should change like this for other types. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue1766304 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue6833] incorrect: failed local variable referenced before assignment
Mark Dickinson dicki...@gmail.com added the comment: This is not a bug. The behaviour you're seeing is described here: http://docs.python.org/reference/executionmodel.html#naming-and-binding If a name binding operation occurs anywhere within a code block, all uses of the name within the block are treated as references to the current block. This can lead to errors when a name is used within a block before it is bound. This rule is subtle. Python lacks declarations and allows name binding operations to occur anywhere within a code block. The local variables of a code block can be determined by scanning the entire text of the block for name binding operations. In the failing example, the registerdecorator function contains an assignment to in_std, so by the rules above in_std is local to the function. The 'if in_std' line therefore tries to lookup 'in_std' in the local namespace; it doesn't exist (yet), so an UnboundLocalError exception occurs. -- nosy: +marketdickinson resolution: - invalid status: open - closed ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue6833 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue6834] use different mechanism for pythonw on osx
New submission from Ronald Oussoren ronaldousso...@mac.com: Note: this is mostly a reminder for myself to clean up the pythonw stub executable The current implementation of pythonw on OSX uses exec to start an executable inside the framework, this is needed to be able to use GUI functionality from the command-line without resorting to undocumented and unsupported system APIs. To deal with selection between 32-bit and 64-bit the framework contains a number of python executables. Using posix_spawnattr_setbinpref_np, posix_spawnattr_setflags and posix_spawn it is possible to do away with the additional executables, leaving a simpler situation. Nice to have features: * python(1) on SnowLeopard has a system preference to select between 32- bit and 64-bit: $ defaults read com.apple.versioner.python { Prefer-32-Bit = 1; } (The versioner appears to be a private Apple library/tool, reimplementing the functionality would be fairly trivial) * It would be nice to have a command-line switch as well * It would be nice if the stub executable could be reused by tools like virtualenv without recompilation -- assignee: ronaldoussoren components: Macintosh keywords: easy messages: 92210 nosy: ronaldoussoren severity: normal stage: needs patch status: open title: use different mechanism for pythonw on osx type: feature request versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.2 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue6834 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue6835] doctest problem with decorated function when decorator is defined in separate file
New submission from Goetz Pfeiffer goet...@googlemail.com: As described in bug 1108, doctest skips tests on functions that have been decorated with a decorator that is defined in a separate file. As described in bug 1108, the problem lies in file doctest.py, there in class DocTestFinder, there in method _from_module There at about line 857 the following code makes problems: elif inspect.isfunction(object): return module.__dict__ is object.func_globals The func_globals property of the function is used to find out if the function was defined in the current module. This is not true for a decorated function where the decorator is defined in another module. Maybe _from_module() should use inspect.getmodulename() or the __module__ property of the function instead. __module__ is set correctly when the decorator uses functools.wraps(). The func_globals property is read-only, so there is no chance fix this at the decorator definition. -- components: Library (Lib) files: mytest.sh messages: 92212 nosy: goetzpf severity: normal status: open title: doctest problem with decorated function when decorator is defined in separate file type: behavior versions: Python 2.6 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file14826/mytest.sh ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue6835 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue6824] help for a module should list supported platforms
Ritesh Raj Sarraf r...@researchut.com added the comment: Take help os or help os.fork for example. WIth the help output that they provide, how am I supposed to know that os.fork is only supported on Unix. We can also go with the assumption that the modules shipped are cross-platform. But then, for those that aren't, I don't think we mention that in the help file documentation. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue6824 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
