[ANN] Release 0.65.3 of Task Coach
Hi, I'm happy to announce release 0.65.3 of Task Coach. This bugfix release fixes one critical bug that affects users on the Windows platform and several minor bugs that affect users on all platforms. Bugs fixed: * Don't leak GDI objects on Windows. * Don't notify of new version when the user has just installed that version. * Mail disappears from Outlook when dropped in TaskCoach. Try to use Outlook to open mail attachment when it's the default mailer. * Mail task doesn't work. * Categories not sorted correctly. What is Task Coach? Task Coach is a simple task manager that allows for hierarchical tasks, i.e. tasks in tasks. Task Coach is open source (GPL) and is developed using Python and wxPython. You can download Task Coach from: http://www.taskcoach.org In addition to the source distribution, packaged distributions are available for Windows XP/Vista, Mac OSX, and Linux (Debian and RPM format). Note that Task Coach is alpha software, meaning that it is wise to back up your task file regularly, and especially when upgrading to a new release.

ANN: cssutils 0.9.4a1
what is it -- A Python package to parse and build CSS Cascading Style Sheets. main changes since 0.9.3 - for full details see the relevant README file http://cssutils.googlecode.com/svn/tags/TAG_0.9.4a1/README.txt main changes - **FEATURE**: Added a new module ``cssutils.codec`` that registers a codec that can be used for encoding and decoding CSS. (http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/WD-CSS21-20060411/syndata.html#q23) - **FEATURE**: Added implementation of ``stylesheets.MediaQuery`` which are part of stylesheets.MediaList. See the complete spec at http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-mediaqueries/ for details. + **API CHANGE**: ``CSSNamespacerule.uri`` is renamed to ``CSSNamespaceRule.namespaceURI`` which is defined is CSSOM. ``uri`` is deprecated and still available but the constructor parameter is named ``namespaceURI`` in any case now. + **API CHANGE**: As ``stylesheets.MediaQuery`` is implemented now all classes using an instance of ``stylesheets.MediaList`` are presented slightly different. Until now a simple list of string was given, now the list contains MediaQuery objects. + **API CHANGE**: ``_Property`` has been renamed to ``css.Property`` and is used in context of ``CSSStyleDeclaration`` and ``MediaQuery``. Attribute ``Property.value`` has been *de-deprecated* and may be used normally now (again). The Property constructor has only optional parameters now. + **API CHANGE**: Removed experimental class ``SameNamePropertyList`` which was used in ``CSSStyleDeclaration`` and also method ``CSSStyleDeclaration.getSameNamePropertyList``. A new method ``CSSStyleDeclaration.getProperties()`` has been added which is simpler and more useful + **API CHANGE**: renamed attribute ``namespaces`` of CSSStyleSheet and Selector to ``prefixes`` as they really are the prefixes of declared namespaces + BUGFIX: Tantek hack (using ``voice-family``) should work now as SameNamePropertyList is removed and properties are kept in order - **CHANGE**: A completely new tokenizer and mostly also the parser have been reimplemented in this release. Generally it should be much more robust and more compliant now. It will have new errors and also some slight details in parsing are changed. + **Documentation**: Added some docs in reStructuredText format including a basic server to view it as HTML. The HTML may be published as well. license --- cssutils is published under the LGPL. download for download options for cssutils 0.9.4a1 - 071020 see http://cthedot.de/cssutils/ cssutils needs * Python 2.4 or higher (tested with Python 2.5 on Vista only) bug reports, comments, etc are very much appreciated! thanks Christof -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-announce-list Support the Python Software Foundation: http://www.python.org/psf/donations.html

In this case, why do we continue to use the word class to generate a type? [snip] Doesn't Python 3 provide an opportunity to move away from discussions about new_style vs old-style? This an opportunity to treat old-style as a historical artefact, not requiring current explanation. So, do we have to decide between 'instance' and 'object' as well? Old-style classes *are* deprecated in favor of new-style classes (whoops!) but the term 'class' is still valid (IMO). It's a common phrase in the OO-world and removing it from a Python programmer's vocabulary (what essentially wouldn't work so well, I suspect) won't help. If you're speaking about just the syntax, well okay, this could be sensible in some unification-focussed vocabulary-minimalistic manner. But combining the class _statement_ and the type _expression_ would essentially change class definitions into expressions. Cheers, Stargaming -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

SWIG-PYTHON - Problem in header file inclusion
Hi
I am facing a problem while including a C header file in the SWIG
interface file. However the problem does not occur when i directly
copy the contents of header file in the same place.
My interface file read as follows.
/* interface file dep.i */
%module dep
%{
#include dep.h
%}
%inline %{
extern int ReadDep (char* fname, DONfic* don, int nb2, int nb4);
%}
And my header file consists of the structure DONfic as shown below.
/* Header file dep.h */
typedef struct _DONfic {
intnb_dep, nb_inc_dep, ncasec_dep;
intmax_dep;
} DONfic;
From python i tried to access the C structure as a python class as
shown below.
/* File pydep.py*/
import dep
...
d = dep.DONfic()
Gives the following error message
Traceback (most recent call last):
File pydep.py, line 5, in ?
d = dep.DONfic()
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'DONfic'
The problem is that i cannot get access to the structure if i directly
include the file dep.h. On the other hand if i copy the contents of
the header file and paste it directly in to the header section of the
SWIG interface file it works.
It works for the following interface file .
%module dep
%{
typedef struct _DONfic {
intnb_dep, nb_inc_dep, ncasec_dep;
intmax_dep;
} DONfic;
%}
%inline %{
extern int ReadDep (char* fname, DONfic* don, int nb2, int nb4);
%}
I tried out lot of options and does n't seems to work. Any suggestions
or ideas are most welcome.

IOW, you can take a textual program, compile it to a code object, play with the AST, add debug hooks, etc... Perhaps you should spend a little more time studying the modules index ? thanks Bruno, but you're talking about terminology I don't know: compilation / AST / IOW / module index ??? But to be honest it's not my main goal. My goal is to write a functional simulator. You can compare it with a little travelling, I want to go from A to B. Normally I'ld travel by bus or train, but in this case there isn't going a bus to B. So in this case I take a car, ask someone how to start it, and drive to B.

The quick answer is that tuples can be indexes into directories while
lists cannot. This doesn't seem like that big of a deal until you realize it
allows you to group related but distict bits of data together to form an index
while retaining their individual identity. A simplistic example would be if
you had a map with x,y coordinates and you wanted to place items on that map
at their location.

It seems you'll have to use Unicode in your program rather than 'plain'

Before storing an unicode textstring in a database or a file, you must
encode it using an appropriate encoding/codepage, for example:
outputstring = unicodeobject.encode('utf-8')
This is not an easy subject. But it isn't very hard either. Please

It seems you'll have to use Unicode in your program rather than 'plain'

Before storing an unicode textstring in a database or a file, you must

outputstring = unicodeobject.encode('utf-8')
No, no, that's wrong. MySQL and the Python interface to it understand
Unicode. You don't want to convert data to UTF-8 before putting it in a
database; the database indexing won't work.
Here's how to do it right.
First, tell MySQL, before you create your MySQL tables, that the tables are
to be stored in Unicode:
ALTER database yourdatabasename DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8;
You can also do this on a table by table basis, or even for single fields,
but you'll probably get confused if you do.
Then, when you connect to the database in Python, use something like this:
db = MySQLdb.connect(host=localhost,
use_unicode = True, charset = utf8,
user=username, passwd=password, db=database)
That tells MySQLdb to talk to the database in Unicode, and it tells the database
(via charset) that you're talking Unicode.
Within Python, you can use Unicode as well. If you have a Unicode text
editor, you can create Python source files in Unicode and have Unicode text
constants in quotes. If you do this, you should put
# -*- coding: UTF-8 -*-
as the first line of Python files. Quoted constants should be written
as
s = u'Test'
rather than
s = 'Test'
Instead of str(), use unicode().
Once everything is set up like this, you can pass Unicode in and out of MySQL
databases freely, and all the SQL commands will work properly on Unicode data.

Re: Dealing with funny characters
No, no, that's wrong. MySQL and the Python interface to it understand Unicode. You don't want to convert data to UTF-8 before putting it in a database; the database indexing won't work. I doubt that indexing has anything to do with it whatsoever. Here's how to do it right. First, tell MySQL, before you create your MySQL tables, that the tables are to be stored in Unicode: ALTER database yourdatabasename DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8; You can also do this on a table by table basis, or even for single fields, but you'll probably get confused if you do. Then, when you connect to the database in Python, use something like this: db = MySQLdb.connect(host=localhost, use_unicode = True, charset = utf8, user=username, passwd=password, db=database) That tells MySQLdb to talk to the database in Unicode, and it tells the database (via charset) that you're talking Unicode. You confuse unicode with utf-8 here. And while this appears to be nitpicking, it is important to write this small program and meditate the better part of an hour in front of it running: while True: print utf-8 is not unicode You continue to make that error below, so I snip that. The important part is this: unicode is a standard that aims to provide a codepoint for each and every character that humankind has invented. And python unicode objects can also represent all characters one can imagine. However, unicode as such is an abstraction. Harddisks, network sockets, databases and the like don't deal with abstractions though - the eat bytes. Which makes it necessary to encode unicode objects to byte-strings when serializing them. Thus there are the thingies called encodings: latin1 for most characters used in westen europe for example. But it is limited to 256 characters (actually, even less), chinese or russian customers won't get too happy with them. So some encodings are defined that are capable of encoding _ALL_ unicode codepoints. Either by being larger than one byte for each character. Or by providing escape-mechanisms. The former are e.g. UCS4 (4 bytes per character), the most important member of the latter is utf-8. Which uses ascii + escapes to encode all codepoints. Now what does that mean in python? First of all, the coding:-declaration: it tells python which encoding to use when dealing with unicode-literals, which are the usomething thingies. If you use a coding of latin1, that means that the text uö is expected to be one byte long, with the proper value that depicts the german umlaut o in latin1. Which is 0xf6. If coding: is set to utf-8, the same string has to consist not of one, but of two bytes: 0xc3 0xb6. So, when editing files that are supposed to contain funny characters, you have to - set your editor to save the file in an appropriate encoding - specify the same encoding in the coding:-declaration Regarding databases: they store bytes. Mostly. Some allow to store unicode by means of one of the fixed-size-encodings, but you pay a storage-size penalty for that. So - you we're right when you said that one can change the encoding a db uses, on several levels even. But that's not all that is to it. Another thing is the encoding the CONNECTION expects byte-strings to be passed, and will use to render returned strings in. The conversion from and to the used storage encoding is done automagically. It is for example perfectly legal (and unfortunately happens involuntarily) to have a database that internally uses utf-8 as storage, potentially being able to store all possible codepoints. But due to e.g. environmental settings, opened connections will deliver the contents in e.g. latin1. Which of course will lead to problems if you try to return data from the table with the topmost chines first names. So you can alter the encoding the connection delivers and expects byte-strings in. In mysql, this can be done explcit using cursor.execute(set names encoding) Or - as you said - as part of a connection-string. db = MySQLdb.connect(host=localhost, use_unicode = True, charset = utf8, user=username, passwd=password, db=database) But there is more to it. If the DB-API supports it, then the API itself will decode the returned strings, using the specified encoding, so that the user will only deal with real unicode-objects, greatly reducing the risk of mixing byte-strings with unicode-objects. That's what the use_unicod-parameter is for: it makes the API accept and deliver unicod-objects. But it would do so even if the charset-parameter was latin1. Which makes me repeat the lesson from the beginning: while True: print utf-8 is not unicode Diez -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Perhaps my opinion is coloured by using other languages where the distinction between list and tuple is stronger, but when I don't need my data to be immutable or mutable, I use something like these rules of thumb: If each index has a particular meaning (for example (x, y) for describing 2d coordinates), use tuples. If the data is uniform (ie each element of the list/tuple has the same meaning - for example, all the filenames in a directory), use lists. If the data has a fixed length, use tuples.

cgi scripts in Mac OS X
I'm trying to get cgi scripts to work. I can link to the python script, but instead of running and producing an output, it prints the script on the page.

Re: cgi scripts in Mac OS X
Your web server needs to be told to execute Python scripts. You can handle it a few different ways, depending on your environment. 1. Place your .py script inside of a ScriptAlias'd /cgi-bin/ directory which will force it to be executed. 2. Rename your .py script to .cgi and add an 'AddHandler cgi-script .cgi' to your Apache configuration 3. Add an AddHandler cgi-script .py to your Apache configuration. This of course assumes that Apache is configured in a way that would allow execution and whatnot. Do yourself a favor and give 'http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/howto/cgi.html' a read over as it's going to cover a lot more than I just did.

traceback over C API - still not working...
This is becoming utterly painful process I found out that the return
value from format_exception function is NOT a list, i.e. PyList_Check()
fails. PySequence_Check() succeeds but then PySequence_List() gives me
back -1. So wtf?
I must say the API is crap on this part. Im trying to get error
information regarding previous error and if all i get back is another
error indicator, then what am I supposed to do? Recursive error handling?
Sounds like da bomb!
The API should have two levels of error handling. First level should
expose a conventional error code mechanism for checking for bad params
etc. Only if the error code says that there was a python error during
evaluation/compilation should one need to use this mechanism.
Just my two cents.
Thanks for help.

Hello group,
I'm trying to get the Python exception information (message and
traceback)
stored into a string in my C++ code. However all i get back is the string
None.
This is what you get (actually None\n) when there is no error set.
All the checks pass and all pointers get a value from the python
API calls. I've also tried with a different function such as
PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs but the result is the same.
Since you already know the three components (type, value, trace), I'd use
traceback.format_exception instead (and remove the PyErr_Restore call -
I'm unsure if it works the way you expect it).
In this case you have to pass three arguments, so yes, use
PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs (remember the final NULL). Beware:
format_exception returns a formatted list, not a string. You have to
concatenate all the elements (either using ''.join or repeteadly calling
PyString_Concat)

Most people advocate particular frameworks instead of WSGI, and as you've noticed people do seem to like Django quite a lot. The problem with this state of affairs is that you need to make up front choices when testing out frameworks, and after the legwork of setting stuff up, if you don't like what you've seen you've got to back out and do similar (but different) stuff for your next choice of framework. However, it shouldn't be too bad to set Django up, really, especially if people have taken some time to explain something very close to what you want to do using Django. Moreover, there's a Google group (django- users) where you could ask general questions, and I imagine that people will be quite happy to help you out. But I can totally understand that creating databases and installing various packages seems somewhat peripheral to a task which could arguably be done using a CGI script (as far as I can see). Paul P.S. I'm not too impressed by the lack of a common high-level Web API for Python, either.

[issue1306] Embedded python reinitialization
New submission from Karemir:
Hi,
I'm embedding stackless python in a c++ application under linux. When I
try to Finalize and Initialize again, I'm getting errors. this is a
sample code that doesn't work:
int main() {
Py_Initialize();
Py_Finalize();
Py_Initialize();
Py_Finalize();
}
Second call to Init throws out a nice Segmentation Fault. Here's a
stack trace:
PyDict_SetItem (op=0x0, key=0x2ab1a4c8, value=0x6bab20) at

[issue1267] Py3K cannot run as ``python -S``
Guido van Rossum added the comment: Thanks for persevering!!! The dangers of switching between fileno(fp) and fp are actually well documented in the C and/or POSIX standards. The problem is caused in PyFile_FromFileEx() -- it creates a Python file object from the file descriptor. The fix actually only works because we're not using the FILE struct once PyTokenizer_FindEncoding() is called. I think it would be better to move the lseek() into call_find_module() so the FILE abstraction is not broken by PyTokenizer_FindEncoding(). I think there's still a bug or two lurking in this area: first, each time you call imp.find_module() you leak a FILE object; second, the encoding allocated in PyTokenizer_FindEncoding() is leaked. You're right that a lot of this could be avoided if we used file descriptors consistently. It seems find_module() itself doesn't read the file; it just needs to know that it's possible to open the file. Rewriting everywhere that uses PyFile_FromFile[Ex] to use file descriptors doesn't seem too hard; there are only a few places. __ Tracker [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://bugs.python.org/issue1267 __ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

K, I understand.

Is PyFile_FromFd and PyFile_FromFdEx fine with you or do you prefer a
different name like PyFile_FromFD and PyFile_FromFDEx or
PyFile_FromFileDescriptor?
I've another question. The os.tmpfile method is using tmpfile() which
returns a file pointer. Do I have to dup its file number and explictely
close the file pointer as shown below or is a simple fileno() enough? I
haven't found sample code how to use a file descriptor after the file
pointer is closed.
static PyObject *
posix_tmpfile(PyObject *self, PyObject *noargs)
{
FILE *fp;
int fd;
fp = tmpfile();
if (fp == NULL)
return posix_error();
fd = dup(fileno(fp));
if (fd == -1)
return posix_error();
fclose(fp);
return PyFile_FromFD(fd, tmpfile, w+b);
}

[issue1263] PEP 3137 patch - str8/str comparison should return false
Brett Cannon added the comment: Attached is a fix for modulefinder. It is an ugly hack as modulefinder took the numeric opcode numbers from dis and passed them to chr(). But that doesn't work since that returns Unicode. So I took those single characters and passed them to str8(). Once str8() has its constructor match bytes() then the chr() call can be ditched and the dis values can be tossed into a single-item list.

[issue1263] PEP 3137 patch - str8/str comparison should return false
Brett Cannon added the comment: Attached is a fix for sqlite3. First issue was that the dictionary that was being used to store converters was having keys in Python code as Unicode but being compared against str8 in C. The second issue was that when an object was serialized using __conform__ and a Unicode object was returned, it was being unserialized as a str8 no matter what type of argument was returned. That makes the most sense if only a single type is going to be returned, so I left it as such and fixed the test to decode str8 to UTF-8 if passed to __init__.

[issue1307] smtpd.SMTPServer throws exception on MAIL command with no arg
New submission from Derek Shockey: smtpd.SMTPChannel contains a bug such that when connected to an SMTPServer (or any subclass thereof), issuing a MAIL command with no argument closes the socket and gives this error on the server: (type 'exceptions.TypeError':'NoneType' object is unsubscriptable ... smtpd.py|__getaddr|212]) The desired result is of course is to respond with a 501 Syntax error. The problem arises because the arg parameter passed to each smtp_* command handler function is None when there is no argument. arg is passed on to __getaddr which attempts a slice on the None object. A check for None in __getaddr that returns will allow the existing code to issue the appropriate 501 Syntax error. -- components: Library (Lib) messages: 56616 nosy: dshockey severity: normal status: open title: smtpd.SMTPServer throws exception on MAIL command with no arg versions: Python 2.5 __ Tracker [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://bugs.python.org/issue1307 __ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Christian Heimes added the comment: The new patch does a far more better job. I had the idea after a discussion with Alexandre on #python and a small debugging session. The tests for profile, cProfile and doctest are failing on my Linux box because Py_FileSystemDefaultEncoding is UTF-8 but PyUnicode_Decode() has a shortcut for utf-8 only. I've added a tolower loop and shortcuts for UTF-16 and UTF-32 to PyUnicode_Decode().

I'd have to touch most functions in import.c and related files to change
find_module() to use a file descriptor. It's a PITA and I don't think
it's worse the effort for now.
The new patch adds PyFile_FromFd and removes the other PyFile_FromFile*
functions. It also changes some methods to use a file descriptor and
some documentation. Two minor changes aren't related to the bug but they
nagged me.
