[issue4961] Inconsistent/wrong result of askyesno function in tkMessageBox

[Kirk Vander Meulen]

Kirk Vander Meulen  added the comment:

I've also confirmed this one (by chance).  I'm on ubuntu linux, and I am seeing 
the problem in both 2.6 and 3.1, both using Tk 8.5.  I don't see the problem on 
my windows install (Vista, python 2.5, not sure of the Tk version right now).  
But I did find a hack around this by explicitly creating and destroying a top 
level window following the askdirectory() dialog.  Try this snippet on 
linux/unix, the call to askyesno() returns False always.

import tkFileDialog,tkMessageBox,Tkinter
theDirectory=tkFileDialog.askdirectory()
addDirectory=tkMessageBox.askyesno('a dialog','Add a directory?')
print addDirectory


But the following works fine:

import tkFileDialog,tkMessageBox,Tkinter
toplevel=Tkinter.Tk()
theDirectory=tkFileDialog.askdirectory()
toplevel.destroy()
addDirectory=tkMessageBox.askyesno('a dialog','Add a directory?')
print addDirectory

[issue1459867] Message.as_string should use "mangle_from_=unixfrom"?

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray  added the comment:

If I understand correctly, this is related to issue 1440472.  There the 
complaint is made that what you get out is not what you put in, since unixfrom 
defaults to True.  But that's only true for __str__.  As kxroberto points out, 
in as_string it defaults to False.  Instead, he suggests, it could default to 
the value of unixfrom set on the Message object, which would make it at least a 
little bit more likely to preserve format of the message that was fed into it.

[issue7678] subprocess.Popen pipeline example code in the documentation is lacking

[Steven K. Wong]

New submission from Steven K. Wong :

The example code at 
http://www.python.org/doc/2.6.2/library/subprocess.html#replacing-shell-pipeline
 should be updated to add the close() call noted below:

output=`dmesg | grep hda`
==>
p1 = Popen(["dmesg"], stdout=PIPE)
p2 = Popen(["grep", "hda"], stdin=p1.stdout, stdout=PIPE)
p1.stdout.close()  # <- this line is not in the doc, but we should add it
output = p2.communicate()[0]

The parent process does not use p1.stdout after passing it to p2, so it should 
close p1.stdout after that. If it is not closed, there is a possibility for 
p1's process to never terminate if p2's process fails. The following code 
demonstrate this situation:

from subprocess import Popen, PIPE
import time
# p1 is a program that writes lots of data to the pipe
cmd = ['cat', 'a_large_file']
p1 = Popen(cmd, stdout=PIPE)
# p2 is a program that fails without reading much data from the pipe
cmd = ['python', '-c', 'import time; time.sleep(5); asdf']
p2 = Popen(cmd, stdin=p1.stdout, stdout=PIPE)
output = p2.communicate()[0]
while p1.poll() is None:  # it loops forever
print 'sleep a bit'
time.sleep(1)

[issue7672] _ssl module causes segfault

[Sean Soria]

Sean Soria  added the comment:

For an app that makes use of SSL itself it better set the callbacks before 
spawning threads or it's going to be in trouble anyway. For an app not making 
use of SSL my patch doesn't make the situation any worse. That sounds like an 
overall gain to me.

[Steven K. Wong]

Steven K. Wong  added the comment:

I think the hang is not a bug. Take a look at the Popen documentation on 
close_fds. If you specify close_fds=True when creating proc2, the hang will not 
happen when you remove the "proc2.stdin.close()" line.

The patch is not thread-safe. If two threads where to do the same thing 
simultaneously, they might (simultaneously) both determine that the lock is not

to the situation that the patch is meant to prevent.

[issue7672] _ssl module causes segfault

[Sean Soria]

Sean Soria  added the comment:

Okay, what if I attack this problem from a "it's not thread-safe" point of 
view? If the callbacks are already loaded, then who knows what state the locks 
are in. If you replace the locking_callback while a thread already has the 
lock, and another thread comes in and tries to lock, it will succeed 
immediately, and two threads will be in the critical section.

Attaching a patch for how I think this should work.

>From Bill via email:
Hmmm, well, is there a standard way to unload Python?  I could put a
__del__ method on the module which would remove the callbacks, I
suppose.  I just never heard of "unloading" a module before.

[Rene Dudfield]

New submission from Rene Dudfield :

hi,

When using setup.py upload --sign without --identity, gpg can give weird 
messages.

Rather than this error message:
"""running upload
gpg --detach-sign --local-user gn -a dist/pywebsite-0.1.18pre.tar.gz
gpg: skipped "gn": secret key not available
gpg: signing failed: secret key not available
error: command 'gpg' failed with exit status 2
make: *** [upload] Error 1"""

It might be nicer to also mention using --identity=, as well as a link to the 
documentation for --sign (url and also the help from "--help upload").

cheers,

[issue1023290] Conversion of longs to bytes and vice-versa.

[Mark Dickinson]

Mark Dickinson  added the comment:

I'd still like to see this backported to 2.7;  if no-one else is interested in 
doing the backport, I'll try to find time before the betas.
(Alexandre, if you want to do the backport, please do steal the issue from me.)

[issue2449] Improved serialization error logging in xmlrpclib

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray  added the comment:

I was curious, so I googled.  You may have already found this as well: it's a 
'fault code', and apparently there's no standard for such codes.  The choice of 
8002 may be modeled on what twisted.web does with exceptions.  Staying 
consistent with them is not a bad idea if you decide this is a similar enough 
fault case, but whatever is done it will need to be documented.

On the other hand, I also happened on this document, but I have no idea what 
its status is in the xmlrpc community:

[issue7676] IDLE shell shouldn't use TABs

[Cherniavsky Beni]

New submission from Cherniavsky Beni :

IDLE defaults to indenting with 4 spaces in editor windows, but hard TABs in 
the Python Shell window.  This is inconsistent with PEP 8; what's worse, it's 
makes copy-paste code between the shell and editor windows confusing and 
dangerous!

Recently I gave a 3-day Python course to 6 people.  I spent some time 
explaining the dangers of TABs with Python's indentation-sensitive syntax and 
telling them "just use 4 spaces and all will be OK".  A few hours later one of 
them asked me why IDLE is refusing to run his code.  Turns out he copy-pasted 
code he tried out in the shell, edited it and tried running it, which resulted 
in a mix of tabs and spaces (which triggered IDLE's tabnanny check) and a 
mixture of 4 and 8 indents (which is ugly).

I had to explain IDLE's confusing behavior, introduce them to Untabify, and 
apologize for the inconvenience.  All this TABs stuff (and Untabify) are things 
people should eventually learn - but they shouldn't bite them on their first 
day!  (This is what Ubuntu calls a "papercut".)

The rationale for the current behavior seems to be making indentation clear 
despite the prompt offsetting the first line by 4:

>>> for i in range(3):
print i

There are 3 alternative behaviors that would be better:

 (1) Use 8 spaces instead of a TAB.
 (2) Use 4 spaces.
 (3) Use 4 spaces, but add a GUI left margin of 4 to continuation lines.

(3) would be ideal, making copy-paste work cleanly while looking good.  I'm not 
sure if it can be implemented easily, but I'll look into it.

If it's hard, (2) would still be a big improvement IMHO.  I think correct 
behaviour is more important than looking good after ">>> " - but others may 
disagree on this.

If there is doubt, (1) is still strictly an improvement.  It can lead to mixed 
8/4 spaces - but at least there won't be invisible problems that the user 
doesn't understand.

[Configurability concerns: all I said above refers to the *default* behavior of 
IDLE, which should follow 4-spaces.  The user should be able to configure it to 
use another width, or TABs.  This option already exists - but it's ignored 
outright by the shell window.  Solutions (2) and (3) would make the shell 
window respect it.]

[issue7675] help() doesn't accept unicode literals in built in docstrings

[pablo stapff]

New submission from pablo stapff :

We use umlaut in our docstrings and when we use the help() function to extract 
the documentation, the function reports an error:

UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character

Our docstrings are specified as unicode literals and the source file contains 
the line:

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-


just import the module and make:

 help(tudelut.tudelut)

[issue2644] errors from msync ignored in mmap_object_dealloc

[Ralf Schmitt]

Ralf Schmitt  added the comment:

No, I don't know how to provoke such an error other than passing illegal 
parameters..(or munmap'ing the mmap'ed area).

/* We allocate one more byte to make sure the string is Ux terminated.
   The overallocation is also used by fastsearch, which assumes that it's
   safe to look at str[length] (without making any assumptions about what
   it contains). */
