[issue13074] Improve documentation of locale encoding functions
New submission from Geoffrey Bache gjb1...@users.sourceforge.net:
The locale module provides locale.getdefaultlocale and
locale.getpreferredencoding. The encodings returned by each are generally
subtly different ('ISO8859-1' vs 'ISO-8859-1'), but the difference between
these methods is not explained.
A comment by Martin von Löwis from 2003 in http://bugs.python.org/issue813449
indicates that getdefaultlocale should not be used in new code, if this is
really the case then this should be in the docs.
Anyone reading the docs from the top will currently encounter getdefaultlocale
first and believe that this is the way to get the encoding.

[issue12753] \N{...} neglects formal aliases and named sequences from Unicode charnames namespace
Ezio Melotti ezio.melo...@gmail.com added the comment:
The attached patch changes Tools/unicode/makeunicodedata.py to create a list of
names and codepoints taken from
http://www.unicode.org/Public/6.0.0/ucd/NameAliases.txt and adds it to
Modules/unicodename_db.h.
During the lookup the _getcode function at Modules/unicodedata.c:1055 loops
over the 11 aliases and checks if any of those match.
The patch also includes tests for both unicodedata.lookup and \N{}.
I'm not sure this is the best way to implement this, and someone will probably
want to review and tweak both the approach and the C code, but it works fine:
\N{LATIN CAPITAL LETTER GHA}
'Ƣ'
import unicodedata
unicodedata.lookup(LATIN CAPITAL LETTER GHA)
'Ƣ'
\N{LATIN CAPITAL LETTER OI}
'Ƣ'
unicodedata.lookup(LATIN CAPITAL LETTER OI)
'Ƣ'
The patch doesn't include changes for NamedSequences.txt.

[issue12753] \N{...} neglects formal aliases and named sequences from Unicode charnames namespace
Martin v. Löwis mar...@v.loewis.de added the comment:
I propose to use a better lookup algorithm using binary search, and then
integrate the NamedSequences into this as well. The search result could be a
record
struct {
char *name;
int len;
Py_UCS4 chars[3]; /* no sequence is more than 3 chars */
}
You would have two tables for these: one for the aliases, and one for the named
sequences.
_getcode would continue to return a single char only, and thus not support
named sequences. lookup could well return strings longer than 1, but only in
3.3.
I'm not sure that \N escapes should support named sequences: people rightfully
expect that each escaped element in a string literal constitutes exactly one
character.

Martin v. Löwis mar...@v.loewis.de added the comment: I agree that the codec shouldn't decode unicode strings. However, the operation performed is still meaningful: users may type ACE (ascii-compatibly-encoded) DNS names into a user interface, and the application may then represent this as a proper Unicode name. So I propose these changes: - remove support for bytes in codec, but only so for 3.3 (it's actually no change in behavior, since it will continue to raise TypeErrors) - add a function decode_idna to the module, for users that wish to un-IDNA string objects. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue3232 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Martin v. Löwis mar...@v.loewis.de added the comment: Martin, do you think that str.title() should follow the Unicode standard? I don't think that follow the Unicode standard has any meaning in this context: the Unicode standard doesn't specify (AFAIK) what a .title() method in a programming language should do. Should string methods work with all the normalizations or just with NFC? When we know what .title() should do, it should do so correctly for all strings. I try to propose a definition for .title() Split S into words. Change the first letter in a word to upper-case, and all subsequent letters to lower case. A word is a sequence that starts with a letter, followed by letter-related characters. Letters are all characters from the Alphabetic category, i.e. Lu+Ll+Lt+Lm+Lo+Nl + Other_Alphabetic. letter-related characters are letters + marks (Mn, Mc, Me). -- title: str.title() is overzealous by upcasing combining marks inappropriately - str.title() is overzealous by upcasing combining marks inappropriately ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue12737 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue12737] str.title() is overzealous by upcasing combining marks inappropriately
Tom Christiansen tchr...@perl.com added the comment:
Martin v. Löwis mar...@v.loewis.de added the comment:
Split S into words. Change the first letter in a word to upper-case,
Except that I think you actually mean that the first letter is
changed into titlecase not uppercase.
One might also say *try* to change for all these, in that not
all cased code points in Unicode have casemaps that are different
from themselves. For example, a superscript lowercase a or b has
no distinct uppercase mapping, the way the non-superscript versions do:
% (echo xyz; echo ab AB | unisupers) | uc
XYZ
ᵃᵇ ᴬᴮ
and all subsequent letters to lower case. A word is a sequence that
starts with a letter, followed by letter-related characters.
I don't like the way you have defined letters and letter-related
characters. The first already has a definition, which is not the
one you are using. Word characters also has a definition in Unicode,
and it is not the one you are using. I strongly advise against
redefining standard Unicode properties. Choose other, unused terms
if you must. It is very confusing otherwise.
Letters are all characters from the Alphabetic category, i.e.
Lu+Ll+Lt+Lm+Lo+Nl + Other_Alphabetic.
Except that is exactly the definition of the Unicode Alphabetic property,
not the Unicode Letter property. It is a mistake to equate
Letter=Alphabetic, and very confusing too.
I agree that this probably what you want, though. I just don't think you
should use letter-related characters when there is an existing formal
definition that works, or that you should redefine Letter.
letter-related characters are letters + marks (Mn, Mc, Me).
That isn't quite right.
* Letters are Lu+Ll+Lt+Lm+Lo.
* Alphabetic is Letters + Other_Alphabetic.
* Other_Alphabetic is certain marks (like the iota subscript) and the
letter numbers (Nl), as well as a few symbols.
* Word characters are Alphabetic + Mn+Mc+Me + Nd + Pc.
I think you are looking for here are Word characters without
Nd + Pc, so just Alphabetic + Mn+Mc+Me.
Is that right?

PS: You can do union/intersection stuff with properties to see what
the resulting sets look like using the unichars command-line tool.
This is everything that is both alphabetic and also a mark:

[issue13077] Unclear behavior of daemon threads on main thread exit
New submission from etuardu edo...@gmail.com: The definition of daemon thread in the current documentation reads: «A thread can be flagged as a daemon thread. The significance of this flag is that the entire Python program exits when only daemon threads are left. [...]» (http://docs.python.org/library/threading.html#thread-objects) I think it's not very clear from this that daemon threads themselves terminate when the program (main thread plus other non-daemon threads) terminates.

[issue13077] Unclear behavior of daemon threads on main thread exit
R. David Murray rdmur...@bitdance.com added the comment: It seems clear enough to me that when a process terminates (the entire Python program exits) then all of its threads must terminate. That's part of the definition of threads, to my understanding. I think the confusion arises from the use of the word deamon, which has been discussed as a bad thing elsewhere in this tracker. A unix user would expect a daemon to keep running in the background, whereas here it is exactly the opposite. See issue 5906 for example, where in the context of Multiprocessing it becomes even more confusing. Perhaps a similar note that 'daemon' does not mean what it does in unix would be a good idea. -- nosy: +r.david.murray stage: - patch review versions: -Python 2.6, Python 3.1, Python 3.4 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue13077 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Eli Collins e...@assurancetechnologies.com added the comment: Attached is a fifth revision (963a2cce068d.diff) of my patch. I was trying to avoid submitting any more revisions if possible, since this I think this patch is essentially feature-complete. However, this revision adds two things which I felt were needed: * This patch fixes a serious oversight where UnixCCompiler.get_compiler_version() wouldn't correctly handle compiler names which contains an absolute file path, or suffixes such as .exe (which could happen under mingw). This corrects for that, and adds tests for those cases. * After thinking about it, I realized the --get-compiler-info option I mentioned in my last post was in fact sorely needed... otherwise there is no easy way for users to determine what string specific_compile_args is using to match against its regexp patterns; such as in Roumen's question. (I hope I wasn't overstepping any bounds by going ahead and implementing this) The option can be run via pysetup3 -q run build_ext --get-compiler-info. Instead of compiling any extensions, it causes build_ext to print out two lines: the first containing the name of the active compiler class, and the second containing the exact string that will be matched by specific_compile_args. I've added references to this in the documentation, as well as unittests to make sure it behaves properly. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue12242 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue12880] ctypes: clearly document how structure bit fields are allocated
Vlad Riscutia riscutiav...@gmail.com added the comment: Attached doc update against tip (though I still hope my patch for configurable allocation strategies will make it in). This is my first doc patch so let me know if I missed something. I am basically explaining that bit field allocation is compiler-specific and no assumptions should be made of how a bitfield is allocated. I believe this is the better thing to do rather than detailing how GCC and MSVC allocated their bitfields because that would just encourage people to use this feature incorrectly. Most bugs opened on bit fields are because people are toying with the underlying buffer and get other results than what they expect. IMO, when using bitfields one should only access the structure members at a high level and not go read/write the raw memory underneath. -- keywords: +patch Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file23275/bitfield_doc.diff ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue12880 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue12753] \N{...} neglects formal aliases and named sequences from Unicode charnames namespace
Ezio Melotti ezio.melo...@gmail.com added the comment:
Leaving named sequences for unicodedata.lookup() only (and not for \N{}) makes
sense.
The list of aliases is so small (11 entries) that I'm not sure using a binary
search for it would bring any advantage. Having a single lookup algorithm that
looks in both tables doesn't work because the aliases lookup must be in
_getcode for \N{...} to work, whereas the lookup of named sequences will happen
in unicodedata_lookup (Modules/unicodedata.c:1187).
I think we can leave the for loop over aliases in _getcode and implement a
separate (and binary) search in unicodedata_lookup for the named sequences.
Does that sound fine?

[issue13070] segmentation fault in pure-python multi-threaded server
Charles-François Natali neolo...@free.fr added the comment:
Confirmed with default.
The problem is that the TextIOWrapper gets collected after the underlying
BufferedRWPair has been cleared (tp_clear) by the garbage collector: when
_PyIOBase_finalize() is called for the TextIOWrapper, it checks if the textio
is closed, which indirectly checks if the underlying rwpair is closed:
static PyObject *
bufferedrwpair_closed_get(rwpair *self, void *context)
{
return PyObject_GetAttr((PyObject *) self-writer, _PyIO_str_closed);
}
Since self-writer has already been set to NULL by bufferedrwpair_clear(),
PyObject_GetAttr() segfaults.
@Victor
Could you try the patch attached?

[issue12753] \N{...} neglects formal aliases and named sequences from Unicode charnames namespace
Tom Christiansen tchr...@perl.com added the comment:
Ezio Melotti ezio.melo...@gmail.com added the comment:
Leaving named sequences for unicodedata.lookup() only (and not for
\N{}) makes sense.
There are certainly advantages to that strategy: you don't have to
deal with [\N{sequence}] issues. If the argument to unicode.lookup()
and be any of name, alias, or sequence, that seems ok. \N{} should
still do aliases, though, since those don't have the complication that
sequences have.
You may wish unicode.name() to return the alias in preference, however.
That's what we do. And of course, there is no issue of sequences there.
The rest of this perhaps painfully long message is just elaboration
and icing on what I've said above.
--tom
The list of aliases is so small (11 entries) that I'm not sure using a
binary search for it would bring any advantage. Having a single
lookup algorithm that looks in both tables doesn't work because the
aliases lookup must be in _getcode for \N{...} to work, whereas the
lookup of named sequences will happen in unicodedata_lookup
(Modules/unicodedata.c:1187). I think we can leave the for loop over
aliases in _getcode and implement a separate (and binary) search in
unicodedata_lookup for the named sequences. Does that sound fine?
If you mean, is it ok to add just the aliases and not the named sequences to
\N{}, it is certainly better than not doing so at all. Plus that way you do
*not* have to figure out what in the world to to do with [^a-c\N{sequence}],
since that would have be something like (?!\N{sequence})[^a-c]), which is
hardly obvious, especially if \N{sequence} actually starts with [a-c].
However, because the one namespace comprises all three of names,
aliases, and named sequences, it might be best to have a functional
(meaning, non-regex) API that allows one to do a fetch on the whole
namespace, or on each individual component.
The ICU library supports this sort of thing. In ICU4J's Java bindings,
we find this:
static int getCharFromExtendedName(String name)
[icu] Find a Unicode character by either its name and return its code
point value.
static int getCharFromName(String name)
[icu] Finds a Unicode code point by its most current Unicode name and
return its code point value.
static int getCharFromName1_0(String name)
[icu] Find a Unicode character by its version 1.0 Unicode name and
return its code point value.
static int getCharFromNameAlias(String name)
[icu] Find a Unicode character by its corrected name alias and return
its code point value.
The first one obviously has a bug in its definition, as the English
doesn't scan. Looking at the full definition is even worse. Rather
than dig out the src jar, I looked at ICU4C, but its own bindings are
completely different. There you have only one function, with an enum to
say what namespace to access:
UChar32 u_charFromName ( UCharNameChoice nameChoice,
const char *name,
UErrorCode *pErrorCode
)
The UCharNameChoice enum tells what sort of thing you want:
U_UNICODE_CHAR_NAME,
U_UNICODE_10_CHAR_NAME,
U_EXTENDED_CHAR_NAME,
U_CHAR_NAME_ALIAS,
U_CHAR_NAME_CHOICE_COUNT
Looking at the src for the Java is no more immediately illuminating,
but I think that extended may refer to a union of the old 1.0 names
with the current names.
Now I'll tell you what Perl does. I do this not to say it is right,
but just to show you one possible strategy. I also am in the middle
of writing about this for the Camel, so it is in my head.
Perl does not provide the old 1.0 names at all. We don't have a Unicode
1.0 legacy to support, which makes this cleaner. However, we do provide
for the names of the C0 and C1 Control Codes, because apart from Unicode
1.0, they don't condescend to name the ASCII or Latin1 control codes.
We also provide for certain well known aliases from the Names file:
anything that says * commonly abbreviated as ..., so things like LRO
and ZWJ and such.
Perl makes no distinction between anything in the namespace when using
the \N{} form for string and regex escapes. That means when you use
\N{...} or /\N{...}/, you don't know which it is, nor can you.
(And yes, the bracketed character class issue is annoying and unsolved.)
However, the functional API does make a slight distinction.
-- charnames::vianame() takes a name or alias (as a string) and returns a
single
integer code point.
eg: This therefore converts LATIN SMALL LETTER A into 0x61.
It also converts both
BYZANTINE MUSICAL SYMBOL FHTORA SKLIRON CHROMA VASIS
and
BYZANTINE MUSICAL SYMBOL FTHORA SKLIRON CHROMA VASIS
into 0x1D0C5. See below.
-- charnames::string_vianame() takes a string name, alias, *or* sequence,
and gives back a string.

[issue13083] _sre: getstring() releases the buffer before using it
New submission from STINNER Victor victor.stin...@haypocalc.com:
getstring() of the _sre module contains the following code:
-
...
buffer = Py_TYPE(string)-tp_as_buffer;
if (!buffer || !buffer-bf_getbuffer ||
(*buffer-bf_getbuffer)(string, view, PyBUF_SIMPLE) 0) {
PyErr_SetString(PyExc_TypeError, expected string or buffer);

}
/* determine buffer size */
bytes = view.len;
ptr = view.buf;
/* Release the buffer immediately --- possibly dangerous
but doing something else would require some re-factoring
*/
PyBuffer_Release(view);
...
-
getstring() is used to initialize a state or a pattern. State and pattern have
destructors (pattern_dealloc() and state_fini()), so it should be possible to
keep the view active and call PyBuffer_Release() in the destructor.

Ezio Melotti ezio.melo...@gmail.com added the comment:
Attached a new patch that adds support for named sequences (still needs some
test and can probably be improved).
There are certainly advantages to that strategy: you don't have to
deal with [\N{sequence}] issues.
I assume with [] you mean a regex character class, right?
If the argument to unicode.lookup() and be any of name, alias, or
sequence, that seems ok.
With my latest patch, all 3 are supported.
\N{} should still do aliases, though, since those don't have the
complication that sequences have.
\N{} will only support names and aliases (maybe this can go in 2.7/3.2 too).
You may wish unicode.name() to return the alias in preference,
however. That's what we do. And of course, there is no issue of
sequences there.
This can be done for 3.3, but I wonder if it might create problems. People
might use unicodedata.name() to get a name and use it elsewhere, and the other
side might not be aware of aliases.
