As I wrote in my initial posting:
I already have the line number. I am looking for the source code line!
So far I use:

getting source code line of error?
I am trying to get the source code line of the last error.
I know traceback.format_exc() but this contains much more information, e.g.:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./error.py", line 18, in main
x=1/0
ZeroDivisionError: division by zero
I could extract the source code line with re.search(), but is there an
easier way?
I have:
exc_type,exc_str,exc_tb = sys.exc_info()
fname = exc_tb.tb_frame.f_code.co_filename
line = exc_tb.tb_lineno
print('%s in %s line %d' % (exc_str,fname,line))
But I also want to output the line itself, not only its number.

several issues with pyinstaller on Windows 10
On Windows 10 I have installed:
P:\W10>python --version
Python 3.10.0
P:\W10>pyinstaller --version
4.7
I can compile a VERY simple Python program:
P:\W10>type argv.pv
#!/usr/bin/python3
import sys
for a in sys.argv: print("["+a+"]")
P:\W10>pyinstaller.exe --onefile tcpbm.py
But I can run it only once:
P:\W10\dist>argv a b
[dist\argv]
[a]
[b]
P:\W10\dist>argv a b
The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.
P:\W10\dist>argv 1 2 zzz
The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.
Compiling a little more complex program (with net IO) fails:

Linux/Windows GUI programming: tk or wx?
I have to transfer a python 2.7 CLI programm into one with a (simple) GUI.

Reading https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/wiki/Supported-Packages supported GUI packages are PyGTK, PyQt4, PyQt5, wxPython I have tested tkinter by myself and it works, too.

I need the extended PATH only for cmd.exe: users shall run my program
(a compiled executable) without having to enter the full path.
At startup cmd.exe runs a script which is defined by the registry variable
AutoRun in "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Command Processor"
I set this variable with:
rc = "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Command Processor"
ar = "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\autorun.cmd"
system('reg add "%s" /v AutoRun /d "%s"' % (rc,ar))
and write into autorun.cmd:
set PATH=%PATH%;%USERPROFILE%\Desktop
This command extends PATH only for this cmd.exe instance.
This is all I need!

extending PATH on Windows?
I need to extend the PATH environment variable on Windows.
So far, I use:
system('setx PATH "%PATH%;'+bindir+'"')
The problem: In a new process (cmd.exe) PATH contains a lot of double
elements. As far as I have understood, Windows builds the PATH
environment variable from a system component and a user component. With
the setx command from above I have copied the system PATH into the user
PATH component.
Is there a better way to extend the PATH environment variable for the user?
It must be persistent, not only for the current process.

Yes. I have no own modules. Just one program file.

The reason: I have no ideas on classes :-}
Of course, I should have to learn about, but until now it was not necessary.
The other solutions in this thread are sufficent for me.
Meanwhile I have implemented the iterator function:
taro.extractall(members=itar(taro),path=edir)
def itar(tar):
for ti in tar:
# minimal protection against dangerous file names
# see http://bugs.python.org/issue21109#msg215656
ti.name = subst(r'^(?i)([a-z]:)?(\.\.)?[/\\]','',ti.name)
print('untar "%s"' % ti.name)
yield ti
Perfekt solution for me :-)
Thanks to all.

tarfile : secure extract?
In https://docs.python.org/2/library/tarfile.html there is a warning:
Never extract archives from untrusted sources without prior inspection.
It is possible that files are created outside of path, e.g. members that
have absolute filenames starting with "/" or filenames with two dots
"..".
My program has to extract tar archives from untrusted sources :-}
So far, I ignore files with dangerous pathnames:
for member in taro.getmembers():
file = member.name
if match(r'^(?i)([a-z]:)?(\.\.)?[/\\]',file):
print('ignoring "%s"' % file)
else:
print('extracting "%s"' % file)
taro.extract(member)
A better approach would be to rename such files while extracting.
Is this possible?

As a hack, I modified the standard library module tarfile.py:
root@diaspora:/usr/lib/python2.7# vv -d
--- ./.versions/tarfile.py~1~ 2015-06-22 21:59:27.0 +0200

directories.append(tarinfo)
tarinfo = copy.copy(tarinfo)
tarinfo.mode = 0700
+print('untar "%s"' % tarinfo.name)
self.extract(tarinfo, path)
# Reverse sort directories.
This gives me exact the output I want :-)
BUT I want to distribute my program and all others will not see the tar
extracting information.
Now my question:
How can I substitute the standard module function tarfile.extractall() with
my own function?

Of course, this is the writing client.
Now I have a small problem with the reading client.
This code works so far:
sfo = sock.makefile('r')
taro = tarfile.open(fileobj=sfo,mode='r|')
taro.extractall(path=edir)
But it does not writes anything to the terminal to inform the user.
When I use:
for member in taro.getmembers():
print('extracting "%s"' % member.name)
taro.extract(member)
I get the error:
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/tarfile.py", line 556, in seek
raise StreamError("seeking backwards is not allowed")
Of course, a stream is not seekable.
Any ideas?

Reading the doc helps :-)
https://docs.python.org/2/library/tarfile.html
For special purposes, there is a second format for mode:
'filemode|[compression]'. tarfile.open() will return a TarFile object
that processes its data as a stream of blocks.
With
taro = tarfile.open(fileobj=sock.makefile('w',kB64),mode='w|')
I get no more error.

I found a solution for Windows:
print("\nCopy&paste a filename or drag&drop a file into this window")
file = get_paste()
print('\n"%s"' % file)
def get_paste():
import msvcrt
c = msvcrt.getch()
if c == '\n' or c == '\r': return ''
paste = c
while msvcrt.kbhit():
c = msvcrt.getch()
if c == '\n' or c == '\r': break
paste += c
return paste

Therefore I have added it as another option to enter files: [f] select a file [d] select a directory [e] enter a file or directory (with drag&drop or copy&paste) With [f] starts askopenfilename and [d] starts askdirectory The problem with [e] is: my users do not press ENTER after pasting.

urllib2.urlopen() crashes on Windows 2008 Server
I have a Python2 program which runs fine on Windows 7, but
crashes on Windows 2008 Server R2 64 bit:

The curious thing is: the download was successful, the file 7za.exe is
there in the local directory!

Implementing a counter was only an example for a static variable, not the
primary goal.
With a class, I find it irritating the first function call have to be
different than the subsequent ones:
def main():
a=A(1)
a(1)
a(5)
a(0)
print(a.n)
class A(object):
def __init__ (self,*arg):
self.n = 0
def __call__(self,x):
self.n += 1
print('%d:' % self.n,x)
main()

Fine!
I have now:
def a(x=None):
if not hasattr(a,'x'): a.x = 0
a.x += 1
print('%d:' % a.x,x)
This simply counts the calls of a()
But, when I rename the function I have to rename the attribute also.
Is it possible to refer the attribute automatically to its function?
Something like:
def a(x=None):
if not hasattr(_function_,'x'): _function_.x = 0
_function_.x += 1
print('%d:' % _function_.x,x)

static variables
I try to to implement a "static variable" inside a function:
def main():
a(1)
a(2)
a()
print(a.x)
if 'a.x' in globals(): print('global variable')
if 'a.x' in locals(): print('local variable')
def a(x=None):
if not x is None: a.x = x
print(':',a.x)
main()
When I run this code, I get:
: 1
: 2
: 2
2
This is exactly what I expect.
But what is a.x?
It is neither a variable in globals() nor in locals()

I need an input function with GNU readline support. So far I have:

file = raw_input('File to send: ')
Cursor keys are working, but TAB-completion works only in the current
directory. Example:
File to send: [TAB][TAB]
argv.py error.py md5b64.pyx.py
Python_Cookbook.pdf bookmarksfexit.py murksigkeiten

File to send: /tmp/[TAB][TAB]
argv.py error.py md5b64.pyx.py

Is there a way to make TAB-completion work for other directories, too?

encode("hex") works only with binary strings?
How do I convert a UTF8 string to binary?

It does not encode exactly the same way I need it.
Besides this, I want to understand how Python handles strings and
character encoding.

No.
My test-program I tried to compile was:
#!/usr/bin/python
from tkinter import Tk,filedialog
askopenfilename = filedialog.askopenfilename
Tk().withdraw()
file = filedialog.askopenfilename()
print('File selected: "%s"\n' % file)
It runs directly, but I cannot compile it with pyinstaller.

handling of non-ASCII filenames?
I have written a program (Python 2.7) which reads a filename via
tkFileDialog.askopenfilename() (was a good hint here, other thread).
This filename may contain non-ASCII characters (German Umlauts).
In this case my program crashes with:
File "S:\python\fexit.py", line 1177, in url_encode
u += '%' + c.encode("hex").upper()
File "C:\Python27\lib\encodings\hex_codec.py", line 24, in hex_encode
output = binascii.b2a_hex(input)
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xf6' in position 0:
ordinal not in range(128)
This is my encoding function:
def url_encode(s):
u = ''
for c in list(s):
if match(r'[_=:,;<>()+.\w\-]',c):
u += c
else:
u += '%' + c.encode("hex").upper()
return u
As I am Python newbie I have not quite understood the Python character
encoding scheme :-}
Where can I find a good introduction of this topic?
I would also appreciate a concrete solution for my problem :-)

What are "astral chars"? But anyway, askopenfilename() is a dead end for me: one cannot select directories with it, just plain files.
