Basically, once I have made a connection to Oracle I can no
longer use getstatusoutput(). This is a real problem as
I need to get a list of things to work on from Oracle then
spawn commands to process them...
Thanks,
There is no mode parameter to connect. use try-catch around
db = connect(mode=SYSDBA) line to see what's going on.

I have a machine (PLC) that is dumping its test results into a fixed-
length text file.
While it has nothing to do with python, I found that creating a MySQL
table with the proper fixed length char() fields and using 'load data
infile' was the easiest way to deal with that sort of scenario. The
python script is the secondary part, that handles the normalization
and proper typing of the first table to the second, permanent storage
area. But in this case, the more advanced bits are the database and
SQL details, and python is just a very convenient way to build the SQL
statements and execute them.
I'm really not sure what the best way to deal with fixed length data
is in python. I might define a list with the field lengths and use a
string slicing to get the items.. as a first thought:
myfile = '/somewhere/somefile.txt'
sizes = [16,4,8,8,8]
fd = open(myfile,r)

RE: threading
1. check out the Caveats for thread module: http://docs.python.org/lib/module-thread.html Threads interact strangely with interrupts: the KeyboardInterrupt exception will be received by an arbitrary thread. (When the signal module is available, interrupts always go to the main thread.) i.e., all threads (including main) to catch interrupt exceptions, and propagate that information to other threads. 2. since there is no way to interrupt a sleep (not aware of any), sleep is not the choice. use something else like napping. I mean, take shorter intervals of sleep, check every thing is fine and go back to napping. if something is fishy - go catch it. hope that helps.

RE: SOAPpy and ArrayOfString
for someMethod(Field1 ArrayOf_xsd_string, other_parameters)
a call someMethod( ['str1', 'str2', 'str3'], other_parameters) *works for me*
with SOAPpy 0.12.0. yes sir it does.
in PERL, let alone array types, even for simple types it was hard for me with
all the '-', and '$' prefixing for objects and variables.
I use following snippet to check arguments, and return types from a wsdl for
each method. If any on them is not a simple type, check the wsdl manually for
details of the data type.
import os, sys, glob
from SOAPpy import WSDL
def checkwsdl(file):
if os.path.isfile(file):
print 'wsdl:%s' % file
server = WSDL.Proxy(file)
for ct, k in enumerate(server.methods.keys()):
args =[]
rets = []
callInfo = server.methods[k]
for ct2, name in enumerate(callInfo.inparams):
args.append('%s %s' % (name.name.encode(), name.type[1].encode()))
for ct2, name in enumerate(callInfo.outparams):
rets.append('%s %s' % (name.name.encode(), name.type[1].encode()))
print '%s. %s(%s)\n\treturns(%s)' % ( ct+1, k.encode(),
',\n\t\t'.join(args), ',\n\t\t'.join(rets))
print
if __name__ == '__main__' :
args = sys.argv[1:]
for arg in args:
for file in glob.glob(arg):
checkwsdl(file)
Even though a method may be asking for an array, server may be accepting only
up to a certain number of elements in the array.
And check the data type for elements in the array.
of course I had to tweak a couple of SOAPpy modules to accept long data type,
and work from behind a firewall.
hope that helps...

No special syntax for that, but you can combine the `sum()` function, a

In [40]: sum(int(a == b) for a, b in zip('painter', 'paintor'))

RE: regular expression extracting groups
if its *NOT* an exercise in re, and if input is a bunch of lines within '{'

simply parse keys and array of values into a dictionary, and process them from
the dictionary as below, and the key option correctly has 2 entries 'value' and
'7' in the right order. will work with any input...
# assuming variable s has the string..
s = {
option=value
foo=bar
another=42
option=7
}
for line in s.split():
.. ix = line.find('=')
.. if ix = 0:
.. key = line[:ix]
.. val = line[ix + 1: ]
.. try:
.. data[key].append(val)
.. except KeyError:
.. data.setdefault(key, [val])

for k, v in data.items():
.. print 'key=%s val=%s' % (k, v)
..
..
key=foo val=['bar']
key=option val=['value', '7']
key=another val=['42']
with another dictionary of keys to be processed with a function to process
values for that key, its a matter of iterating over keys..

Subject: regular expression extracting groups
Hi list,
I'm trying to use regular expressions to help me quickly extract the
contents of messages that my application will receive. I have worked
out most of the regex but the last section of the message has me
stumped. This is mostly because I want to pull the content out into
regex groups that I can easily access later. I have a regex to extract
the key/value pairs but it ends up with only the contents of the last
key/value pair encountered.
An example of the section of the message that is troubling me appears
like this:
{
option=value
foo=bar
another=42
option=7
}
So it's basically a bunch of lines. Every line is terminated with a
'\n' character. The number of key/value fields changes depending on
the particular message. Also notice that there are two 'option' keys.
This is allowable and I need to cater for it.
A couple of example messages are:
xpl-stat\n{\nhop=1\nsource=vendor-device.instance\ntarget=*\n}
\nhbeat.basic\n{\ninterval=10\n}\n
xpl-stat\n{\nhop=1\nsource=vendor-device.instance\ntarget=vendor-
device.instance\n}\nconfig.list\n{\nreconf=newconf\noption=interval
\noption=group[16]\noption=filter[16]\n}\n
As all messages follow the same pattern I'm hoping to develop a
generic regex, instead of one for each message kind - because there
are many, that can pull a message from a received packet.
The regex I came up with looks like this:
# This should match any xPL message
GROUP_MESSAGE_TYPE = 'message_type'
GROUP_HOP = 'hop'
GROUP_SOURCE = 'source'
GROUP_TARGET = 'target'
GROUP_SRC_VENDOR_ID = 'source_vendor_id'
GROUP_SRC_DEVICE_ID = 'source_device_id'
GROUP_SRC_INSTANCE_ID = 'source_instance_id'
GROUP_TGT_VENDOR_ID = 'target_vendor_id'
GROUP_TGT_DEVICE_ID = 'target_device_id'
GROUP_TGT_INSTANCE_ID = 'target_instance_id'
GROUP_IDENTIFIER_TYPE = 'identifier_type'
GROUP_SCHEMA = 'schema'
GROUP_SCHEMA_CLASS = 'schema_class'
GROUP_SCHEMA_TYPE = 'schema_type'
GROUP_OPTION_KEY = 'key'
GROUP_OPTION_VALUE = 'value'
XplMessageGroupsRe = r'''(?P%sxpl-(cmnd|stat|trig))
\n # message type
\
{\n
#
hop=(?P%s[1-9]{1})

target=(?P%s(\*|(?P%s[a-z0-9]{1,8})-(?P%s[a-z0-9]{1,8})\.(?P

XplMessageGroups = re.compile(XplMessageGroupsRe, re.VERBOSE |

If I pass the second example message through this regex the 'key'
group ends up containing 'option' and the 'value' group ends up
containing 'filter[16]' which are the last key/value pairs in that
message.
So the problem I have lies in the key/value regex extraction section.
It handles multiple occurrences of the pattern and writes the content
into the single key/value group hence I can't extract and access all
fields.
Is there some other way to do this which allows me to store all the
key/value pairs into the regex match object for later retrieval?
Perhaps using the
RE: Extract string from log file
from each line separate out url and request parts. split the request into
key-value pairs, use urllib to unquote key-value pairs..as show below...

I've never used xlrd, but based on other packages for accessing spread

Cells can have numeric values or string values. Your cell apparently
has a string, but you are asking for a numeric value, so you get a
zero. Should you be asking for a string value? (That's the way
OpenOffice/python works if I remember correctly.)
Or are you accessing a different cell because you've confused 0-based /
1-based indexing?
Or are you using old outdated versions of xlrd, Python or Excel?

Subject: Decimals not equalling themselves (e.g. 0.2 = 0.21)
I am very new to Python (I started learning it just yesterday), but I
have encountered a problem.
I want to make a simple script that calculates the n-th root of a given
number (e.g. 4th root of 625--obviously five, but it's just an example
:P), and because there is no nth-root function in Python I will do this
with something like x**(1/n).
However, with some, but not all, decimals, they do not seem to 'equal
themselves'. This is probably a bad way of expressing what I mean, so
I'll give an example:
0.5
0.5
0.25
0.25
0.125
0.125
0.2
0.20001
0.33
0.33002
As you can see, the last two decimals are very slightly inaccurate.
However, it appears that when n in 1/n is a power of two, the decimal
does not get 'thrown off'. How might I make Python recognise 0.2 as 0.2
and not 0.20001?
This discrepancy is very minor, but it makes the whole n-th root

RE: Continually check object status
updated creature running in its own thread will get you started. try it for
yourself, change sleep times per your need.
import os, sys, threading, time
class Creature:
def __init__(self, status):
self.status = status
self.state = 'run'
def start(self):
self.athread = threading.Thread(target=self.print_status)
self.athread.start()
def change_status(self, new_status):
self.status = new_status
def print_status(self):
while self.state == 'run':
print self.status
time.sleep(1)
def stop(self):
self.state = 'stop'
self.athread.join()
#main loop
c = Creature('happy')
c.start()
time.sleep(3) #wait some time
c.change_status('managing')
time.sleep(3) #wait some more time
c.change_status('bye')
time.sleep(1)
c.stop()
concept would be similar with GUI as well

Beginner, so please bare with me. I'm not sure what to call what it
is I'm looking for.
If I have an object class, let's call it Creature:
class Creature:
def __init__(self, status):
self.status = happy
def change_status(self, new_status):
self.status = new_status
def print_status(self):
print self.status
I would like to be able to print out the Creature's status every 20
seconds. Let's say I use a script like this:
import time
while True:
time.sleep(20)
Creature.print_status()
But, while cycling through printing the status, I would like to be
able to update Creature.status to something new.
I might be approaching this from the wrong direction entirely. Thanks
for your input.
The simple, yet possibly dangerous answer is: you need
multi-threading. Multi-threading is a technique that allows several
(quasi)-parallel paths of execution whilst sharing memory and objects
inside that memory. The module in python to achieve this is called
threading.
However, concurrent programming is a very advanced topic, ridded with
pitfalls for even experienced developers.
There are other ways to solve the problem, commonly known as event-loops
and timers. These are usually part of frameworks for e.g GUI-creation an
such, but you can also roll your own if you like.
So, the better answer might be a question: what do you ultimately want
to achieve? Given the name of your class, Creature, I assume you are
writing on some game or such. Depending on how you plan to do that, you
might have a framwork providing you with the needed tools/library calls
or whatever.

I was afraid that someone was going to mention threading. I have read
about it before but not been able to do much with it.
My ultimate goal is to create some sort of tamagotchi style virtual
pet to interact with. Over time it gets hungry or bored, but the
process can be fixed by a user feeding or playing with it. I
wanted to take this opportunity to teach myself some PyGTK coding as
well, but I thought that maybe I could build the creature object and
looping in such a way that it would be possible to add a GUI to it
later.

building python from source on HP
appreciate hints or pointers for building python on HP. running 'make test' fails with following cryptic message, after running configure, make. Attempting to build python from source on HP-UX host name B.11.11 U 9000/800 3314646674 unlimited-user license *** Error exit code 1 Stop. not sure if output from configure and make would make a difference. If so I can send them. thanks in advance Edwin The information contained in this message and any attachment may be proprietary, confidential, and privileged or subject to the work product doctrine and thus protected from disclosure.
