[issue13206] while loop vs for loop test

[R Blackmore]

New submission from R Blackmore :

Using Python 3.2.2 on Windows 7

See attached file
Was having problem with a program I was doing... couldn't get around issue 
unless I changed from "while" loop to "for" loop... WTF???
 
So restarted computer and then Python Shell and IDLE I wrote a very simple loop 
file... The 1st loop is a while loop that hangs and only prints divisor 1 and 
divisor 2 (Should also print divisor 5)

For loop works as expected printing
divisor 1
divisor 2
divisor 3

Unless I'm missing something both loops should return (i.e. print) same!

Cheers

[issue13185] Why does Python interpreter care about curvy quotes in comments?

Phillip M. Feldman  added the comment:

I'm beginning to understand the reasoning.  This is quite a bit more complex
than I initially thought, and I appreciate the explanations.

Objects/stringobject.c already does something similar:
else if (longlongflag)
sprintf(s, "%" PY_FORMAT_LONG_LONG "d",
va_arg(vargs, PY_LONG_LONG));
so it makes sense to do the same in Modules/_ctypes/callproc.c.

[issue12281] bytes.decode('mbcs', 'ignore') does replace undecodable bytes on Windows Vista or later

[STINNER Victor]

STINNER Victor  added the comment:

Version 7 of my patch. This patch is ready for a review: I implemented all TODO.

Summary of the patch (of this issue):

 - fix mbcs encoding to handle correctly ignore & replace error handlers on all 
Windows version
 - the mbcs encoding now supports any error handler (not only ignore and/or 
replace to encode/decode)
 - Add codecs.code_page_encode() and codecs.code_page_decode()

With the patch, Python 3.3 will give different results than Python 3.2 with 
replace and ignore error handlers (which was required to fix bugs). I consider 
that the new behaviour is more correct than the previous behaviour. It doesn't 
use Windows "replace" mode which is different than Python "replace" mode.

codecs.code_page_encode() and codecs.code_page_decode() are currently used for 
unit tests, but they can be used to implement the cp65001 encoding in Python 
(or any other Windows code page). This encoding is regulary asked for: see 
issues #6058, #7441 and #10920.

Changes between since the patch version 6:

 - handle multibyte encodings (cp932 and CP_UTF8)
 - the "replace" error handler doesn't use Windows replace and ignore modes. 
Use Windows strict mode and replace undecodable bytes by '?'. This change 
removes some differencies between Windows versions (in some corner cases).
 - add more checks for integer overflow
 - add more tests

I only tried my patch on Windows Seven.

--

The codec works byte per byte / character per character if the stringcannot be 
decoded/encoded in strict mode, so handling errors (with an error handler 
different than strict) can be slow. I didn't implement optimizations suggested 
by Martin. Since the patch has a long test suite, it may be possible to 
implement it later.

--

The patch doesn't expose custom options (MB_COMPOSITE, MB_PRECOMPOSED, 
MB_USEGLYPHCHARS, ...). I consider that Python builtin error handlers (strict, 
ignore, replace, backslashreplace, ...) are enough.

--

I deferred my idea of decoding bytes filenames from the ANSI code page in 
posixmodule.c (and patch Python os.fsencode/fsdecode functions). I should be 
discussed in another issue.

[issue13203] Doc: say id() is only useful for existing objects

[Raymond Hettinger]

Raymond Hettinger  added the comment:

I think this is over-explaining an implementation detail and it makes the docs 
for id() harder to understand.

Possibly there can be a FAQ entry about identity but the id() function itself 
is no place to go into the quirks of when new objects are created or destroyed.

Also, "getting confused" is often a step in the learning process -- it can't be 
taken out entirely.

[issue10197] subprocess.getoutput fails on win32

[bpoaugust]

bpoaugust  added the comment:

A better fix, which supports multiple windows commands:

if mswindows:
pipe = os.popen('( ' + cmd + ' ) 2>&1', 'r') # Windows uses () rather 
than { }
else:
pipe = os.popen('{ ' + cmd + '; } 2>&1', 'r')

This works with the command

subprocess.getoutput("echo before & python -V & echo after")

Note that python -V writes to stderr, so without the enclosing ( ) the version 
information is not captured.

[issue13204] sys.flags.__new__ crashes

[Andreas Stührk]

New submission from Andreas Stührk :

It's not possible (by intention) to instantiate a new instance of sys.flags. 
This is achieved by setting the "tp_new" slot to NULL (in `_PySys_Init()`), 
after `PyType_Ready()` is called, which means that a slot wrapper is added to 
the type dict for the "tp_new" slot (because the slot != NULL at that time). 
The problem is now that if one calls `sys.flags.__new__` directly, a null 
pointer dereference occurs in `tp_new_wrapper()`.

Attached is a patch that fixes the crash and adds a test.

[issue12619] Automatically regenerate platform-specific modules

[Ned Deily]

Ned Deily  added the comment:

What do you do for platforms like OS X where we support one set of binary files 
that contain multi-architecture C-files that can run as Intel-64, Intel-32 or 
PPC-32 on the same machine at user option at run time?  For example, the 
Apple-suppled system Python on OS X 10.6 has all three and you can use `arch` 
to specify which to run (PPC is emulated on the Intel machines supported by 
10.6):

$ file /usr/bin/python2.6
/usr/bin/python2.6: Mach-O universal binary with 3 architectures
/usr/bin/python2.6 (for architecture x86_64):   Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64
/usr/bin/python2.6 (for architecture i386): Mach-O executable i386
/usr/bin/python2.6 (for architecture ppc7400):  Mach-O executable ppc

The static IN.py currently shipped in plat-darwin is misleading at best. And 
you can't improve the situation by regenerating at installation time.

[issue12405] packaging does not record/remove directories it creates

[Carl Meyer]

Carl Meyer  added the comment:

> Carl: Can you tell us how pip removes directories?

In short - pip would _love_ to have directories recorded as well as files, 
exactly as Vinay has proposed. We don't have that info (even the distutils 
--record option currently doesn't record directories, thus installed-files.txt 
doesn't contain directories), so we are reduced to some nasty things like 
referring to top-level.txt in order to avoid lots of empty directories hanging 
about, which in itself was the subject of recent controversy re Twisted's 
custom namespace packages implementation.

Please, let's have directories recorded in RECORD, and yes, if a directory 
would have been created but already existed, it should also be recorded (so 
that shared directories are in the RECORD file for both/all of the sharing 
distributions).

[issue12997] sqlite3: PRAGMA foreign_keys = ON doesn't work

[Ned Deily]

Ned Deily  added the comment:

Mark, you don't say what version of OS X or which Python you are using but, if 
you are using an Apple-supplied Python on 10.6 or 10.7 or if you are using 
python.org 64-bit/32-bit installers for 2.7 or 3.2, the Python standard library 
sqlite3 modules dynamically links to the system-supplied 
/usr/lib/libsqlite3.dylib.  On 10.6.8 Snow Leopard that is 3.6.12.  On Lion 
(10.7.2) that has been updated by Apple to 3.7.5.  (BTW, the most recent 
32-bit-only python.org installers for 3.2.x and 2.7.x statically link a version 
of 3.7.4 sqlite3 in order to work on older versions of OS X which have much 
older or even no system versions of sqlite3.)

Can this issue be closed?

[issue13193] test_packaging and test_distutils failures under Windows

[Paul Moore]

Paul Moore  added the comment:

First one - the problem is in packaging.manifest._translate_pattern, which uses 
os.path.join on regex parts. That won't work on Windows where os.sep is a 
backslash, as the backslash is a RE metacharacter.

Actually, the file list seems to only use '/' as a path separator, so you can 
just use

pattern_re = "^" + prefix_re + '/' + ".*" + pattern_re

Whether this is right or not depends on whether the test is correctly supplying 
the expected file list as always /-separated. I don't know enough to be certain 
on that. An alternative would be to use '[/\\]' in the above, to catch both / 
and \ separators. Technically wrong, but robust enough to do for now if needed.

When you write text into a console on Linux (e.g. displayed by gnome-terminal

line. It would help to fix #2382.

Or do you think that wcswidth() gives the wrong result for this use case?

[issue13201] Implement comparison operators for range objects

[Mark Dickinson]

Mark Dickinson  added the comment:

The new patch looks fine;  I'd still like to have the more explicit reference 
counting in range_hash (see replies on Rietveld).

A few more things:

- The patch needs a Misc/NEWS entry before committing;  it probably deserves a 
line in Doc/whatsnew/3.3.rst, too.

- The doc update should have a ".. versionchanged:: 3.3" note.

- Maybe the range_compare function could be renamed to something that makes it 
clearer it's just doing an equality comparison rather than a generalized 
comparison.  'range_equality_check'?  Or just 'range_equal' or 'range_equality'?

[issue13203] Doc: say id() is only useful for existing objects

[Terry J. Reedy]

New submission from Terry J. Reedy :

Newbies too often do something like (3.2.2, )

>>> id(getattr(x, 'pop')) == id(x.pop)
True

and get confused by the (invalid) result, whereas

>>> a,b=getattr(x, 'pop'),x.pop
>>> id(a)==id(b)
False

works properly. I think we should add a sentence or two or three to the id() 
doc, such as

Since a newly created argument object is either destroyed or becomes 
inaccessible before the function returns, *id(obj)* is only useful and valid if 
*obj* exists prior to the call and therefore after its return.
The value of an expression such as *id(666)== id(667)* is arbitrary and 
meaningless. The id of the first int object might or might not be reused for 
the second one.

[issue6715] xz compressor support

[Nadeem Vawda]

Nadeem Vawda  added the comment:

After disabling a bunch of services and skipping the tests that are
failing on the Windows buildbots, it seems that the failures I was
getting last week have disappeared. It looks like they were due to the
Windows search indexer preventing temp directories from being deleted... >_>

> I have imported xz-5.0.3 into the externals repository now.

I tried to test this out, but it looks like liblzma.a is missing from the
SVN repo. There should be files with that name in the bin_i486 and
bin_x86-64 directories.

Apart from this, is there anything else that needs to be done before this
change can be committed to the main repo?

I'd be happy with a more explicit error. As you say, it's a broken
build so not worth worrying too much about, but it did take me quite a
while to work out what the problem was, including having to raise this
bug report. (The existing traceback doesn't even mention _msi).

So yes, a simple error would be ideal.

I think you mean "Only the paste/util directory is recorded."

Yes, it's a valid point. How about if you record all directories that you would 
create if they didn't exist, as well as those actually created? That way, you 
would record the paste directory under both distributions, but would only 
delete it when deleting the last distribution which uses it (paste/util in your 
example), because you're checking for emptiness (not including bytecode files 
and directories).

[issue12405] packaging does not record/remove directories it creates

[Éric Araujo]

Éric Araujo  added the comment:

Let me rephrase my example with real paths.

Python creates /usr/lib/python3.3/site-packages.  (I’ll call this $stdlib.)

pysetup3.3 install paste.script creates $stdlib/paste/script/ and files 
therein.  The paste and paste/script directories are recorded.

pysetup3.3 install PasteUtil creates $stdlib/paste/util/ and files therein.  
Only the paste/script directory is recorded.

pysetup3.3 remove PasteScript deletes the $stdlib/paste/script dir, but not its 
parent, as it’s not empty after removing all files and dirs in PasteScript’s 
RECORD.

pysetup3.3 remove PasteUtil deletes the $stdlib/paste/util dir.

The $stdlib/paste directory is created by either distribution when it is 
installed, but if it’s recorded only by one of the distributions, then it can’t 
be removed when the other distribution is removed last.  This is the problem 
I’m seeing.

Ah, I see that newline controls newline translation.  We use codecs.open in 
distutils2; I think it uses universal newlines mode.  We’ll figure it out, the 
important part is to have good tests.

To clarify: Python 2.5 and higher support the with statement syntax, but not 
all classes that could benefit from it have the __enter__ and __exit__ methods. 
 So you don’t get a SyntaxError in Python 2.7 when you write “with Popen(...)”, 
but you get an AttributeError because Popen in 2.7 does not do its part to 
support context management.  The built-in open function, on the contrary, 
supports with in 2.5 and higher.

[issue11445] python.exe on OS X shared-llbrary build erroneously linked to MacPorts python library

I can test with GCC on Debian (linux kernel); I don’t know if it would be easy 
to ask all buildbots to test your branch, if not you could call for volunteers 
on python-dev.

[issue11610] Improved support for abstract base classes with descriptors

[Éric Araujo]

Éric Araujo  added the comment:

I noticed this in an older message:

> test_abc.py prints deprecation warnings for abstractproperty. I'm not
> familiar with the protocol here, do we continue to include unit tests
> for deprecated features until they are removed?
We try to keep the test warning-free.  If your patch deprecates something, the 
tests should not use deprecated API, except in one method that tests the 
deprecation itself.  There are helpers in test.support and warnings to catch 
and inspect warnings.

3.3 is still months away; there’s time for your patch.  If nobody replies here, 
ping python-dev again.

[issue13202] subprocess __exit__ attribute missing

[David W. Lambert]

New submission from David W. Lambert :

There are a number of issues with subprocess and __exit__ , 12494 status fixed 
among them.

Program (which doesn't work as I had hoped, but that's not the issue):


'file p.py'

import subprocess as S

with 
S.Popen(('cat','-n',),shell=False,stdin=S.PIPE,stdout=S.PIPE,bufsize=1,universal_newlines=True)
 as p:
p.stdin.write('these\n')
print(p.stdout.readline())




Use:

$ python3 p.py

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "p.py", line 5, in 
print(p.stdout.readline())
KeyboardInterrupt
$
$ python p.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "p.py", line 3, in 
with 
S.Popen(('cat','-n',),shell=False,stdin=S.PIPE,stdout=S.PIPE,bufsize=1,universal_newlines=True)
 as p:
AttributeError: __exit__
$
$ python
Python 2.7.1+ (r271:86832, Apr 11 2011, 18:13:53)

[issue13201] Implement comparison operators for range objects

[Sven Marnach]

New submission from Sven Marnach :

It seems some sort of consensus on how to compare range objects has emerged 
from the python-ideas discussion on comparison of range objects [1].

The attached patch defines '==' and '!=' for range object equality based on the 
sequence of values they represent.  The other comparison operators are left 
NotImplemented.

[issue13180] pysetup silently ignores invalid entries in setup.cfg

[Éric Araujo]

Éric Araujo  added the comment:

Agreed.  Doc/packaging/setupcfg.rst defines that custom fields need to start 
with X-, so we can refuse everything that is not built-in and does not start 
with X-.  (I’m going toward error rather than warning.)

[issue12344] Add **kwargs to get_reinitialized_command

[Éric Araujo]

Éric Araujo  added the comment:

No, thank you for contributing :)  I don’t know all internals by heart either, 
I just needed to step back from the patch and look hard at the tests to make 
them look good.

I didn’t say that the patch was finished by the way, I haven’t covered all 
combinations (getting a command already initialized or getting a 
never-created-before command, giving kwargs or not, what we discussed on IRC).

[issue13200] Add start, stop and step attributes to range objects

[Sven Marnach]

New submission from Sven Marnach :

As discussed on python-ideas [1], range objects should expose their start, stop 
and step values as read-only data attributes.  I've attached a patch to this 
end.

I'll open a separate issue for range comparison.
