[issue21694] IDLE - Test ParenMatch
Terry J. Reedy added the comment: Attached is the 3.4 file I am ready to commit. Comments on Rietveld. I believe the 3 missed line could be hit by adding a delay to a test, but this seems pretty useless. The test file explicitly tests only two of the methods. Tests of other methods could be written, but since they would mostly be white-box tests that code does exactly what it says it does, this does not seem useful. What *would* be useful is a patch to ParenMatch.set_timeout_last to keep the highlight on for as long as ^0 is held down, if longer that .5 sec. Right now, it flickers on and off. The range bug, if such it is, is in HyperParser(self.editwin, insert).get_surrounding_brackets(). I might take a look. -- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file35609/test-parenmatch-21694-34.diff ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue21694 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue21748] glob.glob does not sort its results
New submission from David Jones:
```
for f in glob.glob('input/*/*.dat'): print f
```
outputs:
```
input/ghcnm.v3.2.2.20140611/ghcnm.tavg.v3.2.2.20140611.qca.dat
input/ghcnm.v3.2.2.20140506/ghcnm.tavg.v3.2.2.20140506.qca.dat
```
Note that these are not in the right order. Compare with shell which always
sorts its globs:
```
drj$ printf '%s\n' input/*/*.dat
input/ghcnm.v3.2.2.20140506/ghcnm.tavg.v3.2.2.20140506.qca.dat
input/ghcnm.v3.2.2.20140611/ghcnm.tavg.v3.2.2.20140611.qca.dat
```
I think the shell behaviour is better and we should be allowed to rely on
glob.glob sorting its result.
Note from the documentation: The glob module finds all the pathnames matching
a specified pattern according to the rules used by the Unix shell. The Unix
shell has always sorted its globs.

[issue21749] pkgutil ImpLoader does not support frozen modules
New submission from Marc-Andre Lemburg: This leads to problems when using runpy, since it relies on pkgutil to find importers. In Python 2, ImpLoader is used by ImpImporter which is used as fallback importer by get_importer(). get_importer() is used by runpy to implement e.g. the -m option. As a result, -m doesn't work with frozen modules. In Python 3, ImpLoader still exists, but is deprecated. get_importer() also no longer falls back to the ImpImporter as default, so the situation is less bothersome. Here's a patch for Python 3.4.1 which shows how to add support for frozen modules. The same patch also works in Python 2.6 and 2.7. -- components: Distutils, Library (Lib) files: pkgutil-frozen-modules-support.patch keywords: patch messages: 220442 nosy: dstufft, eric.araujo, lemburg priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: pkgutil ImpLoader does not support frozen modules versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.4, Python 3.5 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file35617/pkgutil-frozen-modules-support.patch ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue21749 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Windows Installer is responsible for the missing entries, and AFAIK the only way it will fail to create them is if our MSI includes invalid data (I'd expect this to show up in the verbose logs).

[issue19351] python msi installers - silent mode
Steve Dower added the comment: This may actually be a Windows issue... the keys for uninstall are being written to the Wow6432Node of the registry (on a 64-bit machine), and apparently the Programs and Features panel does not read them from there. The 64-bit installers should be fine (testing one now) since they probably don't redirect the registry writes. I actually have more than twice as many entries under here than in the main view - mostly Visual Studio components - and none of them appear in the panel. I'll try and ping some people here and find out how to fix it. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue19351 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue21750] mock_open data is visible only once for the life of the class
New submission from Paul Koning: The read_data iterator that supplies bits of read data when asked from unittest.mock.mock_open is a class attribute. The result is that, if you instantiate the class multiple times, that iterator is shared. This isn't documented and it seems counterintuitive. The purpose of mock_open is to act like a file, and read_data is that file's data. A file contains the same data each time you read it. So it would seem better for the data iterator to be an instance attribute, initialized from the mock_open read_data value each time mock_open is called to create a new file instance. -- components: Library (Lib) messages: 220474 nosy: pkoning priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: mock_open data is visible only once for the life of the class type: behavior versions: Python 3.4 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue21750 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue10740] sqlite3 module breaks transactions and potentially corrupts data
Jim Jewett added the comment: (1) The patch is just to docs, not code, so I'm not entirely sure that I understood it properly. (2) The new semantics are a huge mess to explain. This might be because the old semantics were bad, but the result is the same. I think it would be better to create a different API object. (If I read correctly, you would leave function connect unchanged but also def dbapi_connect.) Then keep this new one as simple as it should be -- which will probably mean leaving out some of the parameters that you deprecate. (3) The existing module documentation does claim to be DB-API 2.0 compliant; you should be explicit in the documentation (including docstring) about which behavior differences affect each of (database correctness/API standards conformance/ease of use). -- nosy: +Jim.Jewett ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue10740 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue21753] subprocess shell=True on Windows character escaping
New submission from Jim Jewett: Inspired by https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2014-June/135029.html and the following thread. Normal Windows behavior: hg status --rev .^1 M mercurial\commands.py ? pysptest.py hg status --rev .^1 abort: unknown revision '.1'! So, ^ is an escape character. See http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/35565-45-when-special-command-line It probably isn't possible to pre-escape commands for every possible command interpreter, but it makes sense to get the standard shells right. In fact, global function list2cmdline already exists (and is apparently specific to the Microsoft compiler), but ... its rules are not the same as those of the default windows shell. (Per the tomshardware link, those rules (for windows) did change a while back.) I propose a similar list2shellcmd function. Based on my own very incomplete information, it would currently look like: def list2shellcmd(seq): Turn the sequence of arguments into a single command line, with escaped characters. if mswindows: line=list2cmdline(seq).replace(^, ^^) else: line= .join(seq) return line but there may well be escapes (such as \) that are appropriate even for posix. Note that related issue http://bugs.python.org/issue7839 proposes a larger cleanup, such as forbidding the problematic functionality entirely. -- components: Library (Lib) messages: 220483 nosy: Jim.Jewett priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: subprocess shell=True on Windows character escaping type: enhancement versions: Python 3.5 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue21753 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue10740] sqlite3 module breaks transactions and potentially corrupts data
Aymeric Augustin added the comment: Thanks for your feedback! Indeed this is a documentation patch describing what I could implement if a core dev gave the slightest hint that it stands a small chance of getting included. There's no point in writing code that Python core doesn't want. I designed this API to maximize the chances it would be accepted, based on what I know of Python's development. That's probably why it was merely ignored rather than rejected ;-) More seriously, since I'm interested in improving what the stdlib ships, I have to take backwards compatibility into account. If I just wanted to implement a different API, I'd do it outside of CPython. Yes, I could add PEP 249 compliance considerations to the docs. I'll do it if my general approach is accepted. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue10740 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue21741] Convert most of the test suite to using unittest.main()
Terry J. Reedy added the comment: You might add a brief description of why this is good idea, or link to such a discussion. I am +1 on the idea, but a pydev discussion might be needed. How did you test the patch? I don't think that passing the same tests in non-verbose mode is good enough, as an empty test is a pass. What would be convincing is an automated comparison of verbose output before and after that showed that everything run before is run after. There might be more after if something was omitted from a run_unittest call. That past actuality and current possibility is part of the reason for the change. Timing: I think applying this too close to a release might be a bad idea. I am thinking more of human mental adjustments (and the need to refresh some patches) rather than likely technical issues. If this were approved when 3.4.2 were expected within a month, say, I would wait until it were released. -- nosy: +terry.reedy ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue21741 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

David Murray added the comment: This appears to be me to be obsolete, given that long messages are now the default, and the message argument enhances the long message rather than replacing it. -- nosy: +r.david.murray resolution: - out of date stage: - resolved status: open - closed ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue6966 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue19351] python msi installers - silent mode
Steve Dower added the comment: Okay, now it looks to me like the install that 'works' ran under the SYSTEM account while the one that didn't work ran under my (admin) user account. This may be caused by running the installer from an elevated command prompt. If it detects that it needs to elevate, then it changes to SYSTEM, but if it detects that it doesn't, it will use the current account. If you can run your install scripts as SYSTEM then I suspect it will work. I'm not yet clear on why it sometimes installs through the one account instead of the other. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue19351 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue21652] Python 2.7.7 regression in mimetypes module on Windows
Martin v. Löwis added the comment: I can reproduce the issue with the attached script. The problem is not that EnumKey returns a Unicode string (which it never does), but that QueryValueEx returns a Unicode string. See http://hg.python.org/cpython/rev/18cfc2a42772 for the actual change in question. -- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file35620/finduni.py ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue21652 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue21719] Returning Windows file attribute information via os.stat()
Ben Hoyt added the comment: Updated patch attached based on code reviews. I'm replying to the code review here as when I tried to reply on bugs.python.org/review I got a Python exception, AttributeError: NoneType has no attribute something or other. FYI, it seems Django is set up in debug mode, because it was the full colourful traceback with local vars etc. I didn't save this file, sorry! Zach Ware = Either way, these should probably be defined in stat.py as well (sorry; I should have said 'as well as' instead of 'instead of' when I mentioned _stat.c in the email thread). I don't think so -- I thought the purpose of moving them to _stat.c was so you could use the windows.h constants rather than hard-coded integers? But if they're in stat.py, why do they need to be in _stat.c as well? http://bugs.python.org/review/21719/diff/12149/Modules/_stat.c#newcode563 Modules/_stat.c:563: // For some reason FILE_ATTRIBUTE_INTEGRITY_STREAM and PEP 7 bans C++ style comments. Good point. stoneleaf = 'covert' should be 'convert' - can you fix this as part of your patch? ;) Fixed in latest patch. Instead of spelling out FILE_ATTRIBUTE_ each time, can we abbreviate that part to FA_ ? I disagree. I realize FILE_ATTRIBUTE_* is longish, but it's what it's called in the Windows API, so will make these constants much more findable and obvious to Windows programmers (consistent with the Win32 documentation). On non-Windows machines 'st_file_attributes' will be 0? No, it won't be present at all (like the other non-cross-platform attributes). There's no attribute for the value 8? Correct -- see the Win32 API documentation and loewis's comment. haypo = It would be nice to document these options here :) I don't think we should duplicate the Win32 documentation. Ours will just be less thorough and potentially get out of date. I agree we should add a link to the Win32 docs though. Instead of == 0, you can use assertFalse. Could, but I don't like this when I'm doing bit/integer comparisons. Explicit is better. The purpose of the _stat module is to only provide data from the OS, to not hardcode constants. So -1 to provide these constants on all platforms. Agreed. See above. If the constant is only available on new Visual Studio version, we may hardcode the constant to avoid the dependency on a specific Visual Studio version. For example, in unicodeobject.c I used: #ifndef WC_ERR_INVALID_CHARS # define WC_ERR_INVALID_CHARS 0x0080 #endif That's a good way of doing it. I'll use this approach. Modules/posixmodule.c:1437: unsigned long st_file_attributes; Should we use a DWORD here? I don't think so. None of the other values in win32_stat (e.g., st_dev) are defined using DWORD or Win32-style types. See also loewis's comment. loewis == We shouldn't replicate Microsoft's documentation (if for no other reason than copyright). Instead, linking to http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/gg258117.aspx might be helpful (as long as Microsoft preserves this URL). Agreed. I'll make this change. -- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file35621/issue21719-2.patch ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue21719 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Zachary Ware added the comment: Ben Hoyt wrote: I'm replying to the code review here as when I tried to reply on bugs.python.org/review I got a Python exception, AttributeError: NoneType has no attribute something or other. Generally when you get that you can just hit back and try again, it will work by the 4th try ;) I don't think so -- I thought the purpose of moving them to _stat.c was so you could use the windows.h constants rather than hard-coded integers? But if they're in stat.py, why do they need to be in _stat.c as well? The idea is that _stat.c will use system-provided values wherever possible, but stat.py should be as accurate as we can make it to provide a backup for when _stat isn't around (either when it's just not built, which isn't an issue on Windows, or in another Python implementation). -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue21719 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue10740] sqlite3 module breaks transactions and potentially corrupts data
Jim Jewett added the comment: Removing the existing behavior will almost certainly not be accepted, because of backwards compatibility. Adding new functionality is generally acceptable. Doing that through a new keyword that defaults to the old behavior is fairly common, and generally better than an apparently redundant function. But in this particular case, that makes the new signature and documentation such a mess that I believe a separate function would be the lesser of evils. (And that only if it is clear what the problems with the current situation are. e.g., do the problems only trigger when using the database from too many threads, or is a random network delay enough to trigger problems?) -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue10740 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
