pdb++ 0.6: a drop-in replacement for pdb
Hi, I finally released pdb++ (which got some attention due to a lightning talk at last europython). It starts from version 0.6, since it has been around for years now and it is stable enough to be used during normal devlopment. https://bitbucket.org/antocuni/pdb/src From the README: This module is an extension of the pdb module of the standard library. It is meant to be fully compatible with its predecessor, yet it introduces a number of new features to make your debugging experience as nice as possible. pdb++ features include: * colorful TAB completion of Python expressions (through fancycompleter) * optional syntax highlighting of code listings (through pygments) * sticky mode * several new commands to be used from the interactive (Pdb++) prompt * smart command parsing (hint: have you ever typed r or c at the prompt to print the value of some variable?) * additional convenience functions in the pdb module, to be used from your program pdb++ is meant to be a drop-in replacement for pdb. If you find some unexpected behavior, please report it as a bug. Enjoy, Antonio Cuni -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-announce-list Support the Python Software Foundation: http://www.python.org/psf/donations/

Re: Python critique
From: Steven D'Aprano steve+comp.lang.pyt...@pearwood.info
...
Can you please tell me how to write the following program in Python?
my $n = 1;
{
my $n = 2;
print $n\n;
}
print $n\n;
If this program if ran in Perl, it prints:
2
1
Lots of ways. Here's one:
n = 1
class Scope:
n = 2
print n
print n
Here's another:
n = 1
print (lambda n=2: n)()
print n
Here's a third:
n = 1
def scope():
n = 2
print n
scope()
print n
Here's a fourth:
import sys
n = 1
(sys.stdout.write(%d\n % n) for n in (2,)).next()
print n
In Python 3, this can be written more simply:
n = 1
[print(n) for n in (2,)]
print n
I have tried to write it, but I don't know how I can create that block
because it tells that there is an unexpected indent.
Functions, closures, classes and modules are scopes in Python. If you
want a new scope, create one of those.

Hi Steven,
Thank you for your message. It is very helpful for me.
I don't fully understand the syntax of all these variants yet, but I can see
that there are more scopes in Python than I thought, and this is very good.

Try renaming your .calc() method to .__call__(). That way the method

Re: Python distribution recommendation?
Ok, thank you all for your recommendations. I think I will install ActivePython because it seems that it offers more features for Windows programming than the other distro (by default, which is important for a beginner). I will use WxPython and not other GUIS like QT, Tk or GTK because they are not accessible for screen readers, so I will also need to install WxPython if ActiveState's Python doesn't include it.

Integrating doctest with unittest
I have a module with doctests, and a module that performs unit testing for it. The test module looks like this: import doctest import unittest import module_to_test # ... # many test suites # ... if __name__ == '__main__': doctest.testmod(module_to_test) unittest.main() but now I'd like to integrate the doctests with the unittests. I thought I could follow the instructions here: http://docs.python.org/py3k/library/doctest.html#unittest-api so I added a line: doc_test_suite = doctest.DocTestSuite(module=module_to_test) expecting that it would be found by unittest.main(), but it is not. I imagine this is because DocTestSuite returns a TestSuite instance, while the unittest test finder only looks for classes. I realise that I could manually run the doc_test_suite with this: unittest.TextTestRunner().run(doc_test_suite) but this leads to two test outputs: Ran 100 tests in 3.037s OK Ran 10 tests in 0.012s OK instead of combining them: Ran 110 tests in 3.049s OK Is there a way to have unittest.main() find and run doc_test_suite together with the other test suites? -- Steven -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
python-parser running Beautiful Soup needs to be reviewed
Hello commnity
i am new to Python and to Beatiful Soup also!
It is told to be a great tool to parse and extract content. So here i
am...:
I want to take the content of a td-tag of a table in a html
document. For example, i have this table
table class=bp_ergebnis_tab_info
tr
td
This is a sample text
/td
td
This is the second sample text
/td
/tr
/table
How can i use beautifulsoup to take the text This is a sample text?
Should i make use
soup.findAll('table' ,attrs={'class':'bp_ergebnis_tab_info'}) to get
the whole table.
See the target
http://www.schulministerium.nrw.de/BP/SchuleSuchen?action=799.601437941842SchulAdresseMapDO=142323
Well - what have we to do first:
The first thing is t o find the table:
i do this with Using find rather than findall returns the first item
in the list
(rather than returning a list of all finds - in which case we'd have
to add an extra [0]
to take the first element of the list):
table = soup.find('table' ,attrs={'class':'bp_ergebnis_tab_info'})
Then use find again to find the first td:
first_td = soup.find('td')
Then we have to use renderContents() to extract the textual contents:
text = first_td.renderContents()
... and the job is done (though we may also want to use strip() to
remove leading and trailing spaces:
trimmed_text = text.strip()
This should give us:
print trimmed_text
This is a sample text
as desired.
What do you think about the code? I love to hear from you!?

I could do: if os.access(file, os.F_OK): os.unlink(file) but that's annoying too.

I would find it extremely useful if there was information on the Unicode code points that map to each of the POSIX character classes. By definition, this is not possible. The POSIX character classes are locale-dependent, whereas the recommendation for Unicode regular expressions is that they are not (i.e. a Unicode regex character class should refer to the same characters independent from the locale). If you want to construct locale-dependent Unicode character classes, you should use this procedure: - iterate over all byte values (0..255) - perform the relevant locale-specific tests - decode each byte into Unicode, using the locale's encoding - construct a character class out of that Unfortunately, that will work only for single-byte encodings. I'm not aware of a procedure that does that for multi-byte strings. But perhaps you didn't mean POSIX character class in this literal way.

Re: ctypes question
It is not entirely clear what the functions and especially what their signatures are in that C library clibsmi. In general, for shared libraries, you need to define those first as prototype using ctypes.CFUNCTYPE() and then instantiate each prototype once supplying the necessary parameter flags using prototype(func_spec, tuple_of_param_flags). See sections 15.16.2.3 and 4 of the ctypes docs*. Take a look the Python bindings** for the VLC library, the file called vlc.py***. The function _Cfunction is used to create the Python callable for each C function in that VLC library. All the Python callables are in the second half of the vlc.py file, starting at line 2600.

You will have to ship different copies of the binding. Of course, you can ship them in a single distribution (zip file, or whatever your distribution format is).

I think you forgot to keep in mind the changes in bytes vs. unicode in
Python 3 when reading the docs.
Again, no problem on Python 2. I've googled for people
with similar problems, but got nothing. Does anyone have an idea what
could I be doing wrong?
Recall that string handling changed incompatibly between Python 2 and
Python 3. Your 'test' was a bytestring in Python 2 but is now a
*Unicode string* in Python 3.
The `array` module's handling of strings changed as well. Reading the
Python 3 docs @ http://docs.python.org/dev/library/array.html , we
find (all emphases added):
class array.array(typecode[, initializer])
[...]
If given a list or string, the initializer is passed to the new
array’s fromlist(), frombytes(), or **fromunicode()** method (see
below) to add initial items to the array. Otherwise, the iterable
initializer is passed to the extend() method.
[...]
array.fromunicode(s)
Extends this array with data from the given unicode string. The
array **must be a type 'u' array**; **otherwise a ValueError is
raised**. Use array.frombytes(unicodestring.encode(enc)) to append
Unicode data to an array of some other type.
Since your array's typecode is not 'u', you're getting a ValueError
just like the docs say.
Try using a bytestring instead:
array.array('B', btest) # Note the b prefix
Incidentally, if you ran 2to3 over your code and weren't warned about
this change in the array module, then that's probably a bug in 2to3
which ought to be reported: http://bugs.python.org

Chris

out that mktime_tz is totally ignoring TimeZone information from parsedate_tz.
VERSION: 2.6.5
CODE and RESULTS:
from time import mktime
from email.utils import parsedate,parsedate_tz,formatdate,mktime_tz
parsedate_tz('Sat, 10 Apr 2004 03:50:19 +400')
(2004, 4, 10, 3, 50, 19, 0, 1, -1, 14400)
mktime_tz(parsedate_tz('Sat, 10 Apr 2004 03:50:19 +400'))
1081554619.0
mktime(parsedate('Sat, 10 Apr 2004 03:50:19'))
1081545619.0
Same
formatdate(mktime_tz(parsedate_tz('Sat, 10 Apr 2004 03:50:19 +400')))
'Fri, 09 Apr 2004 23:50:19 -' # WRONG TOTALLY
Expected Result:
'Sat, 10 Apr 2004 03:50:19 +400'

[issue10515] csv sniffer does not recognize quotes at the end of line
Skip Montanaro s...@pobox.com added the comment:
From the comment in the test_csv.py:
+# XXX: I don't know what the correct behavior should be for these.
+# Currently the first one raises an error that the delimiter can't
+# be determined while the second one returns '\r'. The second
+# is obviously.
+('a,b,c,d\ne', ''),
+('a,b,c,d\r\ne', ''),
Obviously what? My guess would be wrong. In the absence of any other
information \r\n has to be treated as a line separator. It shouldn't be
considered as two separate characters, even in such a devoid-of-clues test
case.
Is the empty string a valid delimiter? I've never tried it and it's been a
long time since I looked at any of the code. I do use single-column CSV
files from time-to-time though. I don't think a ',' would be a completely
unreasonable fallback scenario either.

[issue10680] argparse: titles and add_mutually_exclusive_group don't mix (even with workaround)
New submission from Mads Michelsen madch...@gmail.com: This is a follow-up to Issue 58 from the Google Project Hosting bug tracker (http://code.google.com/p/argparse/issues/detail?id=58). I couldn't find any equivalent/re-posting of it here, so I took the liberty of creating a new one - despite the bug being marked 'WontFix' on Google. The reason for this is that I cannot make the suggested workaround... well, work. The root problem: the argparse parser add_mutually_exclusive_group method does not accept title or description arguments. The workaround: steven.bethard suggests on google to create a 'straight' dummy group (i.e. one made using the title-accepting add_argument_group method) and then attach the mutually exclusive group to the dummy group - which is attached to the parser itself. The problem: while the group does appear as a group with title on the help output, the group does not appear to actually _be_ mutually exclusive (I get no objections to running several arguments from the same group together) nor does it display as mutually exclsuive on the help output. Please see attached file for code + resulting output. (I hope I'm doing this right - this is my first bug report, so bear with and instruct me if I'm getting it wrong) -- components: Library (Lib) files: argsconfig.txt messages: 123797 nosy: Mads.Michelsen priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: argparse: titles and add_mutually_exclusive_group don't mix (even with workaround) type: behavior versions: Python 2.7 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file20014/argsconfig.txt ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue10680 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue10680] argparse: titles and add_mutually_exclusive_group don't mix (even with workaround)
Mads Michelsen madch...@gmail.com added the comment:
Okay, I'll try:
Save the following code as argparse_test.py:
[CODE]
#! /usr/bin/env python2
import argparse
def args_config(about):
parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(description=about)
dummy_group = parser.add_argument_group(title='mutually exclusive')
test_group = dummy_group.add_mutually_exclusive_group()
test_group.add_argument('-a', action='store_true', default=False, \
help='This is the r option')
test_group.add_argument('-b', action='store_true', default=False, \
help='This is the b option')
test_group.add_argument('-c', action='store_true', default=False, \
help='And this is the c option')
args_ns = parser.parse_args()
return args_ns
about = 'This is a test case'
args_ns = args_config(about)
print args_ns
[/CODE]
The use the -h argument to see help output:
[OUTPUT]
[~] python/argparse_test.py -h
usage: argparse_test.py [-h] [-a] [-b] [-c]
This is a test case
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
mutually exclusive:
-a This is the r option
-b This is the b option
-c And this is the c option
[/OUTPUT]
The run it with all the options together to test exclusivity:
[OUTPUT]
[~] python/argparse_test.py -abc
Namespace(a=True, b=True, c=True)
[/OUTPUT]
What happens: As you can see, there are no objections to using all three
options at the same time. Neither does the help output indicate that there
should be.
What should happen:
If I have understood the instructions in the Issue report on Google correctly,
the assumption is that this workaround (i.e. using a dummy group) should
produce the desired result (i.e. that running the command argparse_test.py
-abc should appear as and be prbohibited)

[issue10188] tempfile.TemporaryDirectory may throw errors at shutdown

For example try to create a TemporaryDirectory with prefix= on Windows. That should fail as folders there can not contain '' characters and later on in the program you should get an error message something like this one: Exception AttributeError: 'TemporaryDirectory' object has no attribute '_closed' in bound method TemporaryDirectory.cleanup of tempfile.TemporaryDirectory object at 0x00CE1E10 ignored Hope this helps. [Sorry, did not know whether to add this as a separate issue as it seemed kind of related to this one.] -- nosy: +Jurko.Gospodnetić ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue10188 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue10188] tempfile.TemporaryDirectory may throw errors at shutdown
Jurko Gospodnetić jurko.gospodne...@gmail.com added the comment: Clicked send too soon on the previous comment. :-( The simplest way I see you can fix the __del__ issue is to patch TemporaryDirectory.__init__() as follows: def __init__(self, suffix=, prefix=template, dir=None): self._closed = True self.name = mkdtemp(suffix, prefix, dir) self._closed = False This is based on the tempfile.py from the 3.2 beta 1 release on Windows. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue10188 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue10642] Improve the error message of addpackage() (site.py) for defective .pth file
R. David Murray rdmur...@bitdance.com added the comment: My guess is people don't read warnings when they are a common occurrence. A working Python should not emit any warnings, and a properly working Python program (post 2.6/3.1 (or whenever it was we decided to suppress deprecation warnings by default)) should not either. But certainly messages that don't cause program termination *can* be ignored, and thus are more often than program-terminating errors :) On the other hand, this *is* an error. If we agree that python startup and site.py should not fail in the face of misconfigured libraries (and we aren't necessarily agreed on that :) then another option would be to use the logging facility to generate an error that would, by default, be logged to stderr but still allow Python to start. That's not that much different from emitting a warning, functionally, but by having the message make it clear that it is an error it might make it more likely the user would take action. As for whether or not we should want Python to be able to start up in the face of 3rd party library misconfiguration, I think there are arguments on both sides. The most compelling argument I can think of for having errors in third partly libraries not cause startup failure is that a user borking their system python by installing a malfunctioning library would then cause all python-dependent system functions to fail to run until they'd fixed the install. With a system such as gentoo where the package manager that the user might want to use to do the uninstall uses Python, this could be a problem. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue10642 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
