[issue13466] new timezones
Marc-Andre Lemburg m...@egenix.com added the comment: Amaury Forgeot d'Arc wrote: Amaury Forgeot d'Arc amaur...@gmail.com added the comment: A fairly correct way is to query the time zone database at time module import time by using the DST and GMT offset of that time. But that does not give the *other* timezone :-( Which other timezone ? You set time.timezone to the GMT offset of the import time and then subtract another 3600 seconds in case tm_isdst is set. IMO time.timezone and time.daylight should be deprecated since they will give wrong results around DST changes (both switch times and legal changes such as the described one) in long running processes such as daemons. time.timezone is the non-DST timezone: this value does not change around the DST change date. No, but time.daylight changes and time.timezone can change in situations like these where a region decides to change the way DST is dealt with, e.g. switches to the DST timezone or moves the switchover date. Since both values are tied to a specific time I don't think it's a good idea to have them as module globals. That's why the current implementation uses absolute dates like the of January: DST changes are often in March and October. Such an algorithm can be used as fallback solution in case tm_isdst is -1 (unknown), but not in case the DST information is available. What about this algorithm: - pick the first of January and the first of July surrounding the current date - if both have tm_idst==0, the region has no DST. Use the current GMT offset for both timezone and altzone; daylight=0 Those two steps are not necessary. If tm_isdst == 0, you already know that the current time zone is not DST. - otherwise, use the *current* time and get its DST and GMT offset. This is enough to compute both timezone and altzone (with the relation altzone=timezone-3600) That's what I suggested above. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue13466 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue12776] argparse: type conversion function should be called only once
flying sheep flying-sh...@web.de added the comment: this is annoying: i’m creating a reindentation script that reindents any valid python script. the user can specify if, and how many spaces he/she wants to use per indentation level. `0` or leaving the option out means “one tab per level”. if the argument is given, appended code works as intended. but in the default case, the code fails for any of the two default values i tried. i would expect that one of the default values works: either `0`, if the default value *is* converted via the `type` function, or `\t` if the default value bypasses it. it seems that argparse applies the `type` function to the default instantly, and then to the argument (be it the already-converted default or a passed option). this breaks `type` functions which aren’t reflexive for values from their result set, i.e.: `t(x) = y = t(y) = y` must be true for all `x` that the function can handle -- nosy: +flying sheep Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file23767/argparse_test.py ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue12776 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue13465] A Jython section in the dev guide would be great
Antoine Pitrou pit...@free.fr added the comment: Hosting docs.python.org/devguide/jython doesn't seem like an unreasonable idea at all to me, and what's the benefit to CPython in making the Jython team go to the effort of building out independent deployment and source control infrastructure for their own devguide? We can *host* (in the Web hosting sense) the jython devguide. That certainly doesn't mean it belongs in the same piece of documentation. Our devguide was created to explain how to contribute to the CPython project. Creating a Jython section only makes things messier than they are, and it certainly doesn't help our users. Really, I'm sure setting up a crontab and creating an hg repo is easy enough for the Jython people (or whoever wants to help them in that matter). wiki.python.org is already shared between the two projects, and pydotorg hosts the Jython source control infrastructure in addition to CPython's. Providing infrastructure is not the same as sharing the development resources themselves. We don't share the (CPython) hg repo, and we don't share the (CPython) bug tracker. There's no reason to share the (CPython) devguide, not until the two projects merge together. (as for the wiki... well, suffice to say that it's a terrible mess and I hope it's not an example for the devguide. If the wiki was actually useful and practical we wouldn't have made the devguide a separate site, I guess) More generally, given that we now provide cross-links to PyPy, Jython and IronPython from the download pages, it also seems reasonable to provide pointers to their own get involved resources from the CPython devguide. We already provide pointers from the devguide: http://docs.python.org/devguide/#other-interpreter-implementations It's only a matter of changing the URLs if these projects ask us to. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue13465 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Right, but they should only depend on the data in the timezone database at the time of import of the module and not determine the values by looking at specific dates in the past. The only problem is finding out whether the locale uses DST in case the current import time points to a non-DST time. This can be checked by looking at Jan 1st and June 1st after the current import time (ie. in the future) and then testing tm_isdst. If there is a DST change, then you set time.altzone = time.timezone - 3600. Otherwise, you set time.altzone = time.timezone. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue13466 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue13471] setting access time beyond Jan. 2038 on remote share failes on Win7 x64
New submission from Thorsten Simons t...@snomis.de:
Using Python '3.2.2 (default, Sep 4 2011, 09:07:29) [MSC v.1500 64 bit
(AMD64)]' on Windows 7 Professional SP1:
If you set an access time for a file beyond Jan. 2038 on a file stored in a
local NTFS filesystem, all's well:
os.utime('c:\\temp_target\\ulp', (3433232323, 3433232323))
os.stat('c:\\temp_target\\ulp')
nt.stat_result(st_mode=33206, st_ino=2251799813820060, st_dev=0, st_nlink=1,
st_uid=0, st_gid=0, st_size=0, st_atime=3433232323, st_mtime=3433232323,
st_ctime=1322133855)
time.ctime(3433232323)
'Mon Oct 17 13:38:43 2078'
If you try to do this on a remote share (mounted as y:), provided by a Linux
x64 box running Samba x64, things are different:
os.utime('y:\\temp_target2\\ulp', (3433232323, 3433232323))
os.stat('y:\\temp_target2\\ulp')
nt.stat_result(st_mode=33206, st_ino=67150103, st_dev=0, st_nlink=1, st_uid=0,
st_gid=0, st_size=0, st_atime=910692730085, st_mtime=910692730085,
st_ctime=1322133629)
time.ctime(910692730085)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File pyshell#22, line 1, in module
time.ctime(910692730085)
ValueError: unconvertible time
So, setting of access/modification time does not work - assumeably, we run into
a 32-bit boundary somewhere...
Interestingly, if you set the respective access time from a Linux x64 box, you
can see the right access time within Windows 7 via Explorer/Properties...

[issue13473] Add tests for files byte-compiled by distutils[2]
New submission from Éric Araujo mer...@netwok.org: I recently changed packaging.util.byte_compile, the function used by the build_py and install_lib commands, so that it can create .pyc and/or .pyo files independently of the calling’s Python -O or -B flags (dad02a080bbc), but I think I introduced a bug. To check that bug and fully test byte_compile before I further simplify the function and backport the whole fix to distutils, I wanted to add tests that load a .pyc or .pyo file and make sure that the right optimization level is used (nothing for --compile, level one for --optimize=1, level 2 for --optimize=2). In the attached patch, I run a Python with -O, -OO or no flag in a subprocess to import a module that prints different things depending on the optimization level. The .pyc or .pyo file is already created by packaging, but I have no check that makes sure that they are not recreated (which I don’t want) and I don’t know if the optimizations in compile.c are applied during byte-compilation or after import (which would make my tests not exercise what I want). (I tried to use imp.load_module at first but it’s not very friendly. Other ideas that I had after the patch was done: Use subprocess + imp so that I can import pyc or pyo as I wish; use open + dis module.) So, could you import experts review the functions added in packaging.tests.support and tell me if they exercise what I want? -- assignee: eric.araujo components: Distutils, Distutils2 files: p7g-tests-bytecompiled-files.diff keywords: patch messages: 148258 nosy: alexis, brett.cannon, eric.araujo, ncoghlan, tarek priority: normal severity: normal stage: commit review status: open title: Add tests for files byte-compiled by distutils[2] versions: 3rd party, Python 2.7, Python 3.2, Python 3.3 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file23768/p7g-tests-bytecompiled-files.diff ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue13473 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue13473] Add tests for files byte-compiled by distutils[2]
Éric Araujo mer...@netwok.org added the comment: (For the reference, the bug I added is this: http://hg.python.org/cpython/rev/c10946a17420#l6.45 p7g.util.byte_compile calls py_compile.compile with a filename ending in .pyc or .pyo as appropriate, but the optimization level in the py_compile.compile function depends on the calling Python’s -O option. When byte_compile wants to create a .pyo file but is run under a python without -O, it spawns a subprocess with the -O option. The fix I did made sure that the filename used (pyc or pyo) did not depend on the calling Python’s -O, *but* it should not have removed the setting of -O/-OO in the subprocess, as it’s the only way to control the optimization level in py_compile.compile before 3.2. I think I will use a py_compile or compileall function so that I can have control over the optimization level from Python, which will let me remove the inelegant spawning in byte_compile, and I will backport that function for distutils2. If this makes no sense, please ignore.

[issue13224] Change str(x) to return only __qualname__ for some types
Éric Araujo mer...@netwok.org added the comment: You are right, I misinterpreted “use”. I cloned the the PEP 3155 repo and ran my test script (I’ll attach it for reference) and reprs/strs are indeed class '__main__.A.B' and function makestrip.locals.strip at ..., so this request is not obsoleted. I’ve updated my patch to use qualnames for str(cls) and str(func). As I reported before, if I want str(sys.exc_info) to be 'exc_info', then Python unbound methods (i.e. functions) are affected: method 'update' of 'dict' objects built-in method update of dict object at ... method 'tolist' of 'array.array' objects built-in method tolist of array.array object at ... → Counter.update bound method Counter.update of Counter() → Top.Nested.method # this checks qualnames are used bound method Nested.method of __main__.Top.Nested object at ... It seems to me that this is not a problem: Python 3 unbound methods *are* functions. If you decide that having str(method) unchanged for all kinds of methods is more important than giving all kinds of functions a short str, I can do it. -- dependencies: +PEP 3155 implementation Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file23771/change-some-str.diff ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue13224 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Éric Araujo mer...@netwok.org added the comment: Thanks for the fixed links amk. I think they can be fixed in the repo right now. [Eli] I still think it's a bigger problem that the page discusses a module which is not available on Python 3.x - this means that a user following the page can't just type in the code and make it run. It’s only one section that’s affected, so +1 to replacing its contents with just a link and short description (“the functional module does X and Y for Python 2”). Before doing that, would you have the time to contact its author and inquire about porting plans?

[issue1521950] shlex.split() does not tokenize like the shell
Éric Araujo mer...@netwok.org added the comment: Thanks for the comments. There are really two cases in one bug. The first part is that the shell will split tokens at characters that shlex doesn't. The handling of , |, ;, , and could be done by adjusting the definition of shlex.wordchars. The shell may also understands things like: , ||, |, and . The exact definition of these depends on the shell, so maybe it's best to just split them out as separate tokens and let the user figure out the compound meanings. Yes. I think that the main use of shlex is really to parse a line into chunks with a way to embed spaces; it’s intended to parse a program command line (“prog --blah value stillthesamevalue arg samearg”), but not necessarily a full shell line (with and | and whatnot). When people have a line containing and |, then they need a shell to execute it, so they would not call shlex.split but just pass the full line to os.system or subprocess.Popen. Do you remember what use cases you had when you opened this report? The proper handling of quotes/escapes requires some kind of new interface. You need to distinguish between tokens that were modified by the quote/escape rules and those that were not. I don’t see why I would care about quotes in the result of shlex.split.

[issue13422] Subprocess: children hang due to open pipes
Charles-François Natali neolo...@free.fr added the comment: The problem I have with the solution that is currently implemented is that subprocess is waiting for the spawned child although the child is not running anymore. In my case this issue occured when invoking samba or the small sample daemon (see attached file above). For example, invoking the daemon from a bash, the daemon program exits immediately and its spawned child is running in the background. The point is that the bash is accessible right after starting the daemon. It is not waiting for the daemon process in the background to close the open pipe. What do you think of using a waitpid for this scenario? subprocess.Popen could wait for the pid of the daemon starter and gets back control once the pid of the daemon starter is gone. This way, subprocess.Popen does not need to wait for EOF on left-open pipes. That would defeat the semantics of communicate(): it is supposed to wait until EOF. If this doesn't work for your use case, simply don't use communicate(), or close stdout and stderr in your child process. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue13422 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Éric Araujo mer...@netwok.org added the comment: Reading PEP 0249 I can see Gerhard is correct, this patch would violate the PEP. Me too. I think that the PEP is slightly flawed in that users are encouraged to raise exceptions called Warning. IMHO a Warning is never an exceptional condition and should be notified by the warnings framework. That’s probably a bad word choice in the PEP. This obviously confused the authors of MySQLdb, who do indeed warn() their Warning classes rather than raise() them, and it is very useful to be able to filter them. To obey the letter of the PEP the authors of the MySQLdb interface multiply inherit their Warning class from exceptions.StandardError and exceptions.Warning.

While '-t' is not available for the main interpreter executable (and nor is '-d' for directory), '-p' for path0 is a possibility.

[issue1521950] shlex.split() does not tokenize like the shell
Dan Christian robo...@users.sourceforge.net added the comment: Of course, that's how it's used. That's all it can do right now. I was was splitting and combining commands (using ;, , and ||) and then running the resulting (mega) one liners over ssh. It still gets run by a shell, but I was specifying the control flow. 0 It's kind of like a makefile command block. You want to be able to specify if a failure aborts the sequence, or is ignored ( vs ;). Sometimes there are fallback commands (via ||). Of course, you can also group using (). Once things are split properly, then understanding the shell control characters is straight forward. I my mind, shlex.split() should either be as close to shell syntax as possible, or have a clear explanation of what is different (and why). I ended up doing my own parsing. I'm not actually at that company anymore, so I can't pull up the code. I'll see if I can come up with a reference case and maybe a unittest this weekend (that's really the only time I'll have to dig into it). -Dan On Thu, Nov 24, 2011 at 9:20 AM, Éric Araujo rep...@bugs.python.org wrote: Éric Araujo mer...@netwok.org added the comment: Thanks for the comments. There are really two cases in one bug. The first part is that the shell will split tokens at characters that shlex doesn't. The handling of , |, ;, , and could be done by adjusting the definition of shlex.wordchars. The shell may also understands things like: , ||, |, and . The exact definition of these depends on the shell, so maybe it's best to just split them out as separate tokens and let the user figure out the compound meanings. Yes. I think that the main use of shlex is really to parse a line into chunks with a way to embed spaces; it’s intended to parse a program command line (“prog --blah value stillthesamevalue arg samearg”), but not necessarily a full shell line (with and | and whatnot). When people have a line containing and |, then they need a shell to execute it, so they would not call shlex.split but just pass the full line to os.system or subprocess.Popen. Do you remember what use cases you had when you opened this report? The proper handling of quotes/escapes requires some kind of new interface. You need to distinguish between tokens that were modified by the quote/escape rules and those that were not. I don’t see why I would care about quotes in the result of shlex.split.

[issue12776] argparse: type conversion function should be called only once
Arnaud Fontaine ar...@debian.org added the comment: I have had a look at the issue more closely and my initial patch was not completely right as it didn't work properly with argparse_test.py despite all tests passing. Therefore, I have amended my patch to not check whether action.default was a basestring which didn't make sense at all, but check instead if action.default is None (action.default default value is None if not given to add_argument as far as I understand). I also added a test for the issue reported above as it was missing and ran patchcheck to make sure everything was fine. All the tests (include argparse_test.py) passes without problem. Could you please apply them?

[issue1459867] Message.as_string should use mangle_from_=unixfrom?
kxroberto kxrobe...@users.sourceforge.net added the comment: I'd still say this is a plain bug, which simply should be fixed. People who have working code must have already a smart work around: either - or! : By doing the 5 low level code lines of .as_string() on their own. (there is no other way to produce clearly either a unixfrom=True or unixfrom=False Message). As of now this is simply neither nor. People are just quiet (I wonder), because the bug effect is rare. If somebody really wants to produce a unix mbox format for antiquated purposes, he would use unixfrom=True, when calling this function. (because otherwise its not complete unixfrom). And then the patched version is ok as well. But when you call with unixfrom=False (default), a partially unixfrom=True mangled MIME body comes out. This is just buggy ... Most striking is, that all lines in the message body (which the mail recipient reads), which start with the word From, are converted to From. This is not acceptable. a little bit more likely to preserve format of the message that was fed into it : Certainly mail message bodies must not be altered in a funny way when mangling is not ordered. I cannot imagine that sb can consciously or unconsciously rely on the bug. But in 99% of cases the patch would just fix peoples buggy programs. If this really cannot be fixed, then at least a extra function next to as_string should be added (e.g. as_unmangled_string()), which allows creation of legal unmangled message. The current function can so far only produce a managled message, but consistently only then if in addition it is called explicitely with unixfrom=True ;-) -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue1459867 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
