The answer to that is unfortunately slightly complicated, because Windows has no such thing as a user's home directory or, if you prefer, it has several such things. If you want, you can let Python make the decision, by calling os.path.expanduser on ~ which, in my case, correctly gives h:\ which is my domain home directory. Obviously this is not necessarily the same as my Documents and Settings directory, which can also be considered a home directory. That you can get by querying the shell: code from win32com.shell import shell, shellcon idlist = shell.SHGetSpecialFolderLocation (0, shellcon.CSIDL_PERSONAL) documents_and_settings = shell.SHGetPathFromIDList (idlist) print documents_and_settings /code In my case they are the same but that will depend on your setup. I know in the past at least one of these has defaulted to c:\ Alternatives (which in my case amount to the same thing) include using the HOMEDRIVE / HOMEPATH / HOMESHARE environment vars: code import os drive = os.environ.get (HOMEDRIVE, ) path = os.environ.get (HOMEPATH, ) share = os.environ.get (HOMESHARE, ) print drive+path print share /code I haven't bothered to look, but I think this latter is how the expanduser function works things out.

Maybe I should have written it in quotes factor of 10 ;-) But here are a few points - in Delphi the GUI design itself is done in a graphical environment, Ever heard of Glade, wxGlade, QTDesigner etc ? Please stop confusing language, GUI Toolkit, and GUI Designer... making it much easier and faster making it much easier to get a quick prototype. Then, hacking the source may become *much* more easy and faster... (my experience with other windows clickodromes). - auto-scaling of components on a form is very easy (so if the user changes form size ..) And ? - even making everything on a form movable by the end-user is just 1 mouse-click I wouldn't like to make everything movable by the end-user... - using the designers style, or the user style is just 1 click - very good feedback, so creating interactive graphs is very easy, cross-hair, slopes, region of interest etc. - a very huge collection of controls is standard available - print / clipboard / export to almost any graphical file format, just 1 line of code but to be honest ... ... I never even tried to write a GUI in Python, ... Seems quite obvious. ... just looked at others examples, ... and still not seen what I can perform in Delphi ;-) IOW, you assert things just based on your experience with Delphi and your lack of experience with any of the major GUI toolkits availables from Python. To be true, I don't know if any of these toolkits (GTK, wxWindows, QT) and their GUIDesigners have the features you like in Delphi. What I know is that: 1/ these three toolkits have everything *needed* to write serious GUI apps 2/ they are all (more or less) portable 3/ the first two are free software 4/ they are all (more or less) language-independant So talking about GUIs, I think we're really far from a factor of 10.

Got some exams coming up this week, but I'll do some testing in the weekend. I'd like to suggest one thing though. When evaluating conditional statements, it would be very useful to see what else meant in terms of the statement itself, for example: if foo == 1: # Instead of showing true this would show foo == 1 elif foo == 2: # This would show foo == 2 else: # Instead of showing false. Here comes the tricky part. This should show the opposite of foo == 1, as well as the following elif statements. So in this case, the tab could show not (foo == 1) | (foo == 2). The reason for why showing the negated else in the header (looking for a better word, this refers to the header shown when you click something) would be helpful is because it helps keep track of what statements are being evaluated, since False gives no information on what statment is being tested and if the code is long, you have to scroll way up to take a look at the if statement, so it will help a lot with complex code. While this is not hard to implement (unless I'm missing something), the implementation has some problems, because conditional statements can become very long, the else statement's tab could show an exceptionally long statement whereas showing just False keeps it at a fair length. I might be missing something in this suggestion though - if so, please set me straight. At any rate, I think you've done a great job on this. When I get around to testing it this weekend I'll post the results on the project's SourceForge forums. Regards, Friðrik Már -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Avoid inheritance would be almost as justified :-)
Why?
Well, what problems ocurring with
class A: pass
class B: pass
class C(A, B): pass
could be avoided by writing
class A: pass
class B(A): pass
class C(B): pass
instead? Classes have to be designed for subclassing, so essentially you get
two interfaces, one for subclasses and one for client code instead of just
the latter. A more relevant mantra governing inheritance is Flat is better
than nested.
Problems that may arise with this case of multiple inheritance:
- If you need initializers, ensure that they are all invoked
Yes, I figured it out. This should be easy in this case.
- What would you do about name clashes? To avoid them your plugins need
to know about each other.
Yes, I know, but I can't see any simple solution to this (if you can,

PluginNameCommand, however, this wouldn't break the thing (I'm still

If you use attributes starting with two underscores inside a method, Python
transparently prepends them with the class name. This allows to you to use
the same variable name in two base classes and reduces coupling:
class A:
... def set_a(self, v): self.__value = v
...
class B:
... def set_b(self, v): self.__value = v
...
class C(A, B): pass
...
c = C()
c.set_a(alpha); c.set_b(beta)
vars(c)
{'_A__value': 'alpha', '_B__value': 'beta'}
But if two classes with the same name use the private variable, the
mechanism fails:
OldA = A
class A:
... def set_b(self, v): self.__value = v
...
class C(A, OldA): pass
...

Lazy container
Hi everyone,
I'm trying to write a Container which should mimic a list. Basically,
the container pulls items on the fly from an unspecified source through
a function and returns an instance of a given class over the pulled item.
That is:
class lazy(object):
def __getitem__(self,index):
return Foo(f(index))
lc = lazy()
Here I see a problem: two consecutive accesses to lc for the same index
would retrieve two different instances of Foo.
In some scenarios this is not desirable since one wants to have all the
accessors to share the same instance for the same index so as to reduce
memory consumption.
So, I thought to use an internal dictionary of all the Foo instances
given away so far. Something like:
class lazy(object):
def __init__(self):
self.cache = {}
def __getitem__(self,index):
if not self.cache.has_key(index):
value = Foo(f(index)) # MISS
self.cache[index] = value
else: # HIT
value = self.cache[index]
return value
This is acceptable as it reduces the number of instances living in the
system at any given time.
The problem with this implementation is that the cache never decreases
in length as Foo instances are no longer referenced by the lc accessor
since they're all referenced by the internal cache.
There are scenarios in which f() retrieves items from a very huge source
(i.e. a database) and threads sharing the lazing container and consuming
Foo instances to use them for a very short time and then discardi them:
after a while you'll eventually end up having a whole copy of the source
in memory, which is unacceptable.
One solution may be to use gc.get_referrers() to search the cache for
unused instances every time we have a cache miss so as to see if we
could discard some instance before inserting the new one in the cache.
But this comes at a cost.
May be someone has faced this problem before and came up with some
obscure language feature to solve this elegantly :D
Thanks for your replies.

Maybe someone could try this out on Linux.

Thanks for getting involved. And kind remarks. The labeling of 'false' and 'true' is just for shortness sake. The condition itself could be quite a mess and span several lines. You mentioned that. The only reason I like to display it, is to show whether a block of coding, the colored bit, is performed or not. Without that you would find out anyway; nothing becomes underlined when you move your mouse in that area: Nothing in that area is interactive. Because nothing happened there. Even when the condition itself shows on the tab, not just the outcome, the user would still need to scroll up to that tab if it was not visible. The user interface is in HTML, maybe a tooltip when one moves the cursor over a colored condition block could show up that shows the condition and its value. I hate them tooltips though.

thread.start_new_thread(processor.Process,())

logger.info(Staring as application. Please press CTRL+C to stop service.)
while 1:
try:
time.sleep(1)
except:
break
logger.info(Stopping application + SERVICE_NAME)
stopped.set()
while not processor.stopped.isSet():
logger.debug(Waiting for the processor to finish...)

I see some problems. You don't use time sleep in services. You wait for a
stop signal and if you don't get it by the time you reach your timeout,
you loop. I'm not sure what you are trying to accomplish with the threading
module, but you should start with a simple service first. I don't think you
will need the threading at all. Here is a skeleton that might help:
class Service(win32serviceutil.ServiceFramework):
def __init__(self, args):
win32serviceutil.ServiceFramework.__init__(self, args)
self.timeout=5000 # 5000 milliseconds or 5 seconds
#-
# Create an event which we will use to wait on.
# The service stop request will set this event.
#-
self.hWaitStop=win32event.CreateEvent(None, 0, 0, None)
return

Tkinter: how; newbie
can someone explain me this code? from Tkinter import * root = Tk() def callback(event): print clicked at, event.x, event.y frame = Frame(root, width=100, height=100) frame.bind(Button-1, callback) frame.pack() root.mainloop() well, my problem is at frame.bind(,Button-1, callback) callback function prints event.x and event.y. How the callback function get this two number when it has only one argument (event) Why its not: def callback(x, y): print x, y Im new to gui programming Sorry for bad eng!

Re: Testers please
Thanks Stef! I looked at that area of storing large structures. That would seriously make the whole thing much more complicated. Say you have object 'foo' and it has lots of attributes. If you're only accessing foo.length in the statement 'if foo.length 12:' why should I store everything about foo? Its 'length' is the only attribute accessed, therefore I only store its 'length'. And therefore you can not click on 'foo', only on 'length'. No video shows such an example though. On the other hand if you had the statement 'if foo:' then 'foo' would be able to be clicked, and it would say '__main__.Foo instance ... etc. The usual. No attributes though. The interface is web based; I was going to make it as universal as possible. The web server is required to do the Ajax thing and display pages. Makes it harder to install too, unfortunately. The size of the 'recording' is a major drawback, it was clearly not meant to record the processing of millions of records. I need to find a way to specify the area in the code that needs recording. Thanks for the suggestions. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: What does del actually do?
John Nagle a écrit : The Python reference manual says, for del, Rather that spelling it out in full details, here are some hints. That's not too helpful. In particular, when del is applied to a class object, what happens? Are all the instance attributes deleted from the object? It would have been simpler to just test: class Ghost(object): ... def __init__(self, name): ... self.name = name ... say = whoo ... def greetings(self): ... print %s from %s %s \ ... %(self.say, self.__class__.__name__, self.name) ... g1 = Ghost(Albert) g2 = Ghost(Ivan) g1.greetings() whoo from Ghost Albert del Ghost g1.greetings() whoo from Ghost Albert g1.__class__ class '__main__.Ghost' the del statement remove a name from the current namespace. period. It's also used for removing keys from dicts. Is behavior the same for both old and new classes? Should it be different ? I'm trying to break cycles to fix some memory usage problems. GC and/or Weakrefs should do. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Another reason some people choose C++ over Python for some tasks is that they feel that larger programs benefit from strong, static type checking. I like both ways, but depending on the task, one or the other is better. C++ is -not- strongly typed. You can cast anything to void *, and manipulate it in ways unimaginable. Plus there's the whole mess that is pointer arithmetic and a weak typesystem... Disclaimer: I am unashamedly in the C++ Is Evil camp, and wholly believe that if you want proper strong, static type checking, use Haskell, or if you want proper, complete object-orientation (C++'s primitive types compromise its object system's integrity, and I believe I've already discussed casting and pointers), use Python, and if you want under-the-hood pointer-fu, use C. --Sam -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: Tkinter: how; newbie
How the callback function get this two number when it has only one argument (event)? It has one argument, event, which is an instance of a class that has both x and y attributes. print clicked at, event.x, event.y It doesn't accept the coordinates as separate parameters because every event binding uses that same signature, even ones for which coordinates might not make any sense.

Comparing lists ...
I would like to know if it is possible, and how to do this with Python: I want to design a function to compare lists and return True only if both lists are equal considering memory location of the list. I suppose it would be the equivalent of comparing 2 pointers in c++ lets call this function check(a, b) and define a few lists: l0 = [1, 2, 3, 4] l1 = [1, 2, 3, 4] l2 = l0 I want it to have the following behaviour: check(l1, l0) False check(l2, l0) True check(l1, l2) False Any idea how to do this with Python? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: _ssl.pyd is buggy?
Something I always found useful is to use the win32traceutil to set up the trace debugging tool. You can then see the output in the pythonwin trace collector tool. This is very useful for Python services and COM servers. Best of luck, Giles -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
