[issue31672] string.Template should use re.ASCII flag

2018-01-04 Thread Serhiy Storchaka

Serhiy Storchaka  added the comment:

Results.

There are 4 cases:

1) default idpattern and flags
2) overridden only idpattern
3) overridden only flags
4) overridden both idpattern and flags

The case 1 was the one that was broken when this issue was opened. The initial 
Inada's version fixed the case 1, but broke the case 2. His final version 
(applied also to 3.6) fixed the case 1, but broke the case 3. This is a win, 
because cases 1 and 2 look much more common than the case 3. And finally PR 
5099 has fixed also the case 3. The case 4 obviously is not affected by any 
changes of default values.

Now all four cases are correct in 3.7 and the only broken case in 3.6 is the 
uncommon case 3.

Serhiy Storchaka  added the comment:

PR 5099 reverts in 3.7 a subtle behavior change made by the fix for this issue. 
Before merging the fix setting flags to 0 in a Template subclass made the 
default pattern matching only lower case letters. Currently setting flags to 0 
doesn't have any effect.

This looks pretty weird, setting the re.IGNORECASE flag and then unsetting it. 
But it works, and don't break the user code that changes idpattern without

Too bad, because I like that approach.  How hard would it be to add support for 
‘a’ as a local flag?  (I’m kind of surprised that it isn’t already supported - 
it seems like it would be useful.)

I would like this better than hacking Template.flags after the fact.  It seems 
like the right way to align the code with the documentation (i.e. fix a bug).

2017-10-03 Thread INADA Naoki

INADA Naoki  added the comment:

Current pull request override `Template.flags = re.I` after class creation for 
backward compatibility, without any API change.

But I'm not sure it's right approach.
How many people who subclass string.Template expect non-ASCII match?
If this change is bugfix for 99% of subclasses, why should we keep pitfall?

https://docs.python.org/3.6/library/re.html#regular-expression-syntax says
`(?imsx-imsx:...)`

Anyway, Template.idpattern is documented public API too.

This is not only optimization, but bugfix.

Document of string.Template says:

> By default, "identifier" is restricted to any case-insensitive ASCII  
> alphanumeric string (including underscores) that starts with an underscore or 
> ASCII letter.

So, missing re.ASCII flag is bug because non-ASCII alphabet can be matched.

I removed re.A flag after compilation.

[issue31672] string.Template should use re.ASCII flag

2017-10-03 Thread Barry A. Warsaw

Barry A. Warsaw  added the comment:

Technically it *is* an API change since `flags` is a part of the public API.  
The documentation says:

$identifier names a substitution placeholder matching a mapping key of 
"identifier". By default, "identifier" is restricted to any case-
insensitive ASCII alphanumeric string (including underscores) that starts 
with an underscore or ASCII letter. The first non-identifier character 
after the $ character terminates this placeholder specification.

This means if someone does subclass string.Template and changes the pattern to 
accept Unicode identifiers, then with this change they will also have to modify 
flags, whereas before they didn't.

It really wasn't ever the intention to allow non-ASCII identifiers, so this is 
probably safe in practice.  OTOH, making the change for performance reasons 
might be questionable, given that the regular expressions are compiled by the 
Template's metaclass, so unlikely to contribute significantly to overall 
performance wins.

[issue31672] string.Template should use re.ASCII flag

2017-10-03 Thread INADA Naoki

New submission from INADA Naoki :

Currently, strings.Template uses re.IGNORECASE without re.ASCII:

idpattern = r'[_a-z][_a-z0-9]*'
flags = _re.IGNORECASE

[a-z] matches against 'ı' (0x131, DOTLESS I) and 'ſ' (0x17f, LONG S).
It is not intentional, and it makes re.compile slower.
