ANN: PyTables 1.4 (A Hierarchical Database) released!
=== Announcing PyTables 1.4 === PyTables is a library for managing hierarchical datasets and designed to efficiently cope with extremely large amounts of data with support for full 64-bit file addressing. It is based on the HDF5 library for doing the I/O and leverages the numarray/NumPy/Numeric packages so as to deliver the data to the end user in convenient in-memory containers. This is a new major release of PyTables, and probably the last major one of the 1.x series (i.e. with numarray at the core). On it, we have implemented better code to deal with table buffers, enhanced the capability for reading native HDF5 files, enhanced support for 64-bit platforms (but not with Python 2.5: see ``Special Warning`` section below), better support for AIX, optional automatic parent creation and the traditional amount of bug fixes. Go to the PyTables web site for downloading the beast: http://www.pytables.org/ or keep reading for more info about the new features and bugs fixed. Changes more in depth = Improvements: - Table buffers code refactored: now each Row read iterator has its own buffers, completely independent of their table (although write iterators still share a single buffer in the same table). This separation makes the logic of buffering much more clear and less prone to errors (in fact, some of them have been solved). Performance and memory consumption are more or less equal than before. - When flushing the complete file (i.e. when calling File.flush()), only the buffers of those nodes that are alive (i.e. referenced from user code) are actually flushed. This brings much better efficiency (and also stability) to situations where one has to flush (and hence, close) files with many nodes on it. - Better support for AIX by renaming the internal LONLONG_MAX C constant (it was used internally by the xlc compiler). Thanks to Brian Granger for the report. - Added optional automatic parent creation support during node creation, copying and moving operations. See the release notes for more information. - Improved support for Python2.4 and 64-bit platforms (but beware, there are still known issues when using Python2.5 in combination with 64-bit platforms). Thanks to Gerard Vermeulen for his patches for Win64 platforms. - Implemented a workaround for a leak present in numarray -- Numeric conversions when using the array protocol, as can be seen in: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.python.numeric.general/12563 The workaround can potentially be far slower than the array protocol (because a copy of the arrays is always made), but at least the new code doesn't leak anymore. Bug fixes: - Previously, when the size for memory compounds type was less than the size of the type on disk (for example, when one have padding or aligned fields), PyTables was unable to read info on them. This has been fixed. This allows reading general compound types in HDF5 files written with other tools than PyTables. - When many tables with indexed columns were created simultaneously, a bug make PyTables to crash. This has been fixed (for more info, see bug #26). - Fixed a typo in the code that prevented recognizing complex data in non-PyTables files. - Table.createIndex() now refuses to index complex columns. - Now, it is possible to index several nested columns that hangs from the same column parent. Fixes bug #24. - Fixed a typo in nctoh5 utility that prevented using filters properly. Thanks to Lou Wicker for reporting this. - When setting/appending an array in-memory to an Array (or descendant) object and they have mismatched byteorders, the array was set/appended without being byteswapped first. This has been fixed. Thanks to Elias Collas for the report. Deprecated features: - None Backward-incompatible changes: - Please, see ``RELEASE-NOTES.txt`` file. Special Warning for Python 2.5 and 64-bit platforms users = Unfortunately, and due to problems with the combination numarray 1.5.2, Python2.5 and 64-bit platforms, PyTables cannot be safely used yet in such scenario. This will be solved either when numarray can address this issue (hopefully with numarray 1.5.3), or when PyTables 2.x series (with NumPy at its core) will be out. Important note for Windows users If you are willing to use PyTables with Python 2.4 or 2.5 in Windows platforms, you will need to get the HDF5 library compiled for MSVC 7.1, aka .NET 2003. It can be found at: ftp://ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu/HDF/HDF5/current/bin/windows/5-165-win-net.ZIP Users of Python 2.3 on Windows will have to download the version of HDF5 compiled with MSVC 6.0 available in: ftp://ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu/HDF/HDF5/current/bin/windows/5-165-win.ZIP Platforms = This version has been extensively checked on quite a few platforms, like Linux on

Re: httplib and socket.getaddrinfo

I noticed the following lines from the connect() method of the
HTTPConnection class within httplib:
for res in socket.getaddrinfo(self.host, self.port, 0,

This led me to the docs that describe the socket.getaddrinfo() method:
http://www.python.org/doc/2.4.1/lib/module-socket.html
Which leads me to these questions:
1) Is it correct to infer from the Resolves the host/port argument,
into a sequence of 5-tuples that contain all the necessary argument for
the sockets manipulation description in the docs (in particular the
reference to 'sequence of 5-tuples') that a single host/port
combination may be associated with multiple sets of address
information?
Yes. By example, multiple addresses for the same service are used for
load balancing. Or an IPv4 address plus an IPv6 address.
2) In the very limited applications on which I've used
socket.getaddrinfo(), each a host/port combination that my application
passes to socket.getaddrinfo() has always returned a 1-entry list where
the list is a 5-tuple, in other words, each host/port combination has
always been associated with one set of address information. Can
someone point me to a host/port combination that, when passed to
socket.getaddrinfo() will result in socket.getaddrinfo() returning a
list of 1 entry, where each entry is a 5-tuple?
Try to relax your restrictions.

Multi-line docstrings
The Python docs recommend the use of triple-quoted string literals for docstrings, e.g. def Meet(Alice, Bob) : arranges a meeting between Alice and Bob. Returns a reference to the meeting booking object. ... #end Meet However, these tend to get messed up by indentation whitespace, which gets spuriously included as part of the string. Another possibility is to use implicit concatenation of string literals, e.g. def Meet(Alice, Bob) : arranges a meeting between Alice and Bob. \ Returns a reference to the meeting booking object. ... #end Meet This includes no spurious whitespace, or even any newlines; if you want these, you must put them explicitly in the string: def Meet(Alice, Bob) : arranges a meeting between Alice and Bob.\n \ Returns a reference to the meeting booking object. ... #end Meet -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Question on regex
Hello all -
I have a file which has IP address and subnet number and I use regex to extract
the IP separately from subnet.
pattern used for IP: \d{1,3}(\.\d{1,3}){3}
pattern used for subnet:((\d{1,3})|(\d{1,3}(\.\d{1,3}){1,3}))/(\d{1,2})
so I have list of ip/subnets strewn around like this
10.200.0.34
10.200.4.5
10.178.9.45
10.200/22
10.178/16
10.100.4.64/26,
10.150.100.0/28
10/8
with that above examples:
ip regex pattern works for all IP address
subnet regex pattern works for all subnets
problem now is ip pattern also matches the last 2 subnet numbers, because it
falls under ip regex.
to fix this problem, i used negative lookahead with ip pattern:
so the ip pattern now changes to:
\d{1,3}(\.\d{1,3}){3}(?!/\d+)
now the problem is 10.150.100.0 works fine, 10.100.4.64 subnet gets matched
with ip pattern with the following result:
10.100.4.6
Is there a workaround for this or what should change in ip regex pattern.
python script:
#!/usr/bin/env python
import re, sys
fh = 0
try:
fh = open(sys.argv[1], r)
except IOError, message:
print cannot open file: %s %message
else:
for lines in fh.readlines():
lines = lines.strip()
pattIp = re.compile((\d{1,3}(\.\d{1,3}){3})(?!/\d+))
pattNet = re.compile(((\d{1,3})|(\d{1,3}(\.\d{1,3}){1,3}))/(\d{1,2}))
match = pattIp.search(lines)
if match is not None:
print ipmatch: %s %match.groups()[0]
match = pattNet.search(lines)
if match is not None:
print subnet: %s %match.groups()[0]
fh.close()
output with that above ip/subnet in a file
ipmatch: 10.200.0.34
ipmatch: 10.200.4.5
ipmatch: 10.178.9.45
subnet: 10.200
subnet: 10.178
ipmatch: 10.100.4.6
subnet: 10.100.4.64
subnet: 10.150.100.0
subnet: 10

Re: Generating all permutations from a regexp
BJörn Lindqvist wrote:
With regexps you can search for strings matching it. For example,
given the regexp: foobar\d\d\d. foobar123 would match. I want to
do the reverse, from a regexp generate all strings that could match
it.
The regexp: [A-Z]{3}\d{3} should generate the strings AAA000,
AAA001, AAA002 ... AAB000, AAB001 ... ZZZ999.
Is this possible to do? Obviously, for some regexps the set of matches
is unbounded (a list of everything that matches * would be very
unpractical), but how would you do it for simple regexps like the one
above?
For a very small number of characters, it would be feasible. For any
finite number of characters, it would be possible (though it wouldn't
take much to take longer than the age of the universe). For reference,
in your simple example, you have 17,576,000 matching strings.
I'm curious as to why you would wish to do this. I certainly understand
considering hard problems for their own sake, but when I formulate
them, there's always some impetus that makes me say Huh. Now I
wonder...

I think what you want is that neither /d+ nor another digit nor a . follows:
\d{1,3}(\.\d{1,3}){3}(?!(/\d)|\d|\.)
This way 10.0.0.1234 won't be recognized as ip. Neither will 23.12.
which could be a problem if an ip is at the end of a sentence, so you
might want to omit that.

The asyncore docs seem to imply everything's fixed in stone once loop() is called, where they say, Once the initial channel(s) is(are) created, calling the loop() function activates channel service, which continues until the last channel (including any that have been added to the map during asynchronous service) is closed. After I call asyncore.loop(), I'd like to be able to add/remove clients (channels?) to/from execution by asyncore. Is this possible? the usual way to do that is to add new channels in callbacks, in response to other server activities. if you want to deal with this from the program calling asyncore.loop, use the count option to tell loop to return after N events. e.g: while 1: asyncore.loop(0.05, count=20) # wait for max 1 second add/remove channels here /F -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Essentially, they note that the NCD does not always bevave like a metric and one reason they put forward is that this may be due to the size of the header portion (they were using the command line gzip and bzip2 programs) compared to the strings being compressed (which are on average 48 bytes long).

Re: textwrap.dedent replaces tabs?
Frederic Rentsch wrote:
Following a call to dedent () it shouldn't be hard to translate leading
groups of so many spaces back to tabs.
Sure, but the point is more that I don't think it's valid to change to
tabs in the first place.
E.g.:
input = ' ' + '\t' + 'hello\n' +
'\t' + 'world'
output = textwrap.dedent(input)
will yield all of the leading whitespace stripped, which IMHO is a
violation of its stated function. In this case, nothing should be
stripped, because the leading whitespace in these two lines does not
/actually/ match. Sure, it visually matches, but that's not the point
(although I can understand that that's a point of contention in the
interpreter anyway, I would have no problem with it not accepting 1 tab
= 8 spaces for indentation... But that's another holy war.
If I understand your problem, you want to restore the dedented line to
its original composition if spaces and tabs are mixed and this doesn't
work because the information doesn't survive dedent ().
Sure, although would there be a case to be made to simply not strip the
tabs in the first place?
Like this, keeping current functionality and everything... (although I
would think if someone wanted tabs expanded, they'd call expandtabs on
the input before calling the function!):
def dedent(text, expand_tabs=True):
dedent(text : string, expand_tabs : bool) - string
Remove any whitespace than can be uniformly removed from the left
of every line in `text`, optionally expanding tabs before altering
the text.
This can be used e.g. to make triple-quoted strings line up with
the left edge of screen/whatever, while still presenting it in the
source code in indented form.
For example:
def test():
# end first line with \ to avoid the empty line!
s = '''\
hello
\t world
'''
print repr(s) # prints ' hello\n\t world\n'
print repr(dedent(s)) # prints ' hello\n\t world\n'

Hi.
Essence of problem in the following:

Is it possible to split them into the fragments that contain only latin
printable symbols (aplhabet + ?# etc)
Of course it is possible, but there probably isn't a built-in function to
do it. Write a program to do it.
and fragments with the hieroglyphs, so it could be like this
['BZ?', '\xe3\x83\x84\xe3\x83\xbc\xe3\x83\xaa', 'TV%',
'\xe3\x83\x84\xe3\x82\xad', 'DVD'] ?
def split_fragments(s):
Split a string s into Latin and non-Latin fragments.
# Warning -- untested.
fragments = [] # hold the string fragments
latin = [] # temporary accumulator for Latin fragment
nonlatin = [] # temporary accumulator for non-Latin fragment
for c in s:
if islatin(c):
if nonlatin:
fragments.append(''.join(nonlatin))
nonlatin = []
latin.append(c)
else:
if latin:
fragments.append(''.join(latin))
latin = []
nonlatin.append(c)
return fragments
I leave it to you to write the function islatin.
Hints:
There is a Perl module to guess the encoding:
http://search.cpan.org/~dankogai/Encode-2.18/lib/Encode/Guess.pm
You might like to read this too:
http://effbot.org/pyfaq/what-does-unicodeerror-ascii-decoding-encoding-error-ordinal-not-in-range-128-mean.htm
I also recommend you read this recipe:
http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Cookbook/Python/Recipe/251871
And look at the module unicodedata.
Then, after translate of hieroglyphs, necessary to join line, so it
could be like this
BZ? navigation TV% display DVD
def join_fragments(fragments)
accumulator = []
for fragment in fragments:
if islatin(fragment):
accumulator.append(fragment)
else:
accumulator.append(translate_hieroglyphics(fragment))
return ''.join(accumulator)
I leave it to you to write the function translate_hieroglyphics.

Yep. It's a well known fact that putting convoluted and metaclasses

someinstance.__class__.__name__ does the same thing.
No, not really::
class C(object):

... self.name = name
... @classmethod
... def from_class_block(cls, name, bases, blockdict):
... return cls(name)

...
foo.name
'foo'

class '__main__.C'
foo.__class__.__name__

Note that the ``class foo`` statement is not creating a class. It's
creating an instance of ``C``. So it really is doing something pretty
different.

Category: Python Library Group: Python 2.4 Status: Closed Resolution: Fixed Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Martin Blais (blais) Assigned to: Lars Gustäbel (gustaebel) Summary: tarfile local name is local, should be abspath Initial Comment: I ran into a bug using the tarfile module with compression from a directory that did not exist anymore, and this exhibits a bug in the tarfile module. I'm not completely sure how to fix it with certainty, so instead of filing a quick patch, I submit a bug so people familiar with the module can have a look first. The problem is that when you open a tarfile with gz or bz2 compression, the TarFile object is opened with a filename that is not absolute, just local (basename is called) but the actual file is using a file-like object. Now, when you add a new entry, there is a check in the TarFile.add method that checks if we're not adding the archive itself into the tarfile, and this method calls abspath. Calling abspath on the name that has been basename'd is incorrect and a bug. It happens not to fail nor cause any problems when called from an existing directory (the test returns false), but it does not do the job it is supposed to. When the CWD has been deleted, calling abspath fails with an OSError, which brings out the problem. Some code to reproduce the bug is provided in an attachment. -- Comment By: Lars Gustäbel (gustaebel) Date: 2006-12-23 19:17 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=642936 Originator: NO Fixed.

I think it promises more than it should. The current content tells the reader they can expect consistant results from a dictionary as far as order goes, and we know this to be simply untrue and even in the circumstances where its likely (but still not impossible), such as `zip(d.values(), d.keys())` there is not even any compelling reason to use such odd methods, making the very fact that the idea is documented suspect. I recommend the footnote be removed entirely, or replaced with Keys and values are listed in an arbitrary order which is non-random, varies across Python implementations, and depends on the dictionary's history of insertions and deletions. Do not expect anything of the order of the items(), keys(), values(), iteritems(), iterkeys(), and itervalues() methods' results.

The docs didn't originally say this, but people noted it was true in then-current CPython, and asked whether they could rely on it.
