indirect assignment question
Hi,
I have some lines of code which currently look like this:
self.window = self.wTree.get_widget("mainWindow")
self.outputToggleMenu = self.wTree.get_widget("menuitem_output_on")
self.outputToggleButton =
self.wTree.get_widget("button_toggle_output")
self.logView = self.wTree.get_widget("textview_log")
self.logScrollWindow = self.wTree.get_widget("scrolledwindow_log")
and I would like (for tidiness / compactness's sake) to replace them
with something like this:
widgetDic = {
"mainWindow": self.window,
"menuitem_output_on": self.outputToggleMenu,
"button_toggle_output": self.outputToggleButton,
"textview_log": self.logView,
"scrolledwindow_log": self.logScrollWindow
}
for key in widgetDic:
... set the variable in dic[key] to point to
self.wTree.get_widget(key) somehow
what I need is some kind of indirect assignment where I can assign to a
variable whose name is referenced in a dictionary value.
Is there a way of doing this in python?
thanks,
andy baxter

pls help me fixing this:
import re

re_s = re.compile(r'(link|l)a' , re.IGNORECASE)
print re_s.findall(s)
output:
['link', 'l']
why?
i want my re_s to find linka and la, he just find link and l and forget
about the ending a.
The round brackets define a 'capturing group'. I.e. when you do findall
it returns those elements in the string that match what's inside the
brackets. If you want to get linka and la, you need something like this:
>>> re_s = re.compile(r'((link|l)a)' , re.IGNORECASE)
>>> print re_s.findall(s)
[('linka', 'link'), ('la', 'l')]
Then just look at the first element in each of the tuples in the array
(which matches the outside set of brackets).

Re: threads with gtk gui problem
On 14/05/11 14:12, Andy Baxter wrote:
Hi,
I'm working on adding a Gtk GUI to a python program. Its main function
is to read raw data from an arduino board over USB, and convert it to
MIDI note/controller events to be sent to another program. I've had it
working fine with just a command line interface, but when I replaced
the command line with a Gtk interface, I started having problems
getting the thread that reads the USB port to run.
I'm not sure what the custom is on this list for pasting code - It's a
long program so I don't want to paste the whole thing.
The sequence of events I've coded is:
- the program starts.
- the port reader thread (which is a threading.Thread subclass) is
initialised.
- the object which controls the interface is initialised (i.e. the
glade file is loaded.)
- the port reader is started (i.e. the 'start' method is called, which
calls the 'run' method in a thread).
- then the gtk main loop is run.
The behaviour I'm getting is that the port reader either fails to
start, or stops running at the point where it tries to initialise the
serial port. It then does nothing until I close the main window, at
which point it starts running again.
The port reader's run method begins like this:
# the method called by the thread superclass to run the main loop
of the thread.
def run(self):
# main loop of thread.
print "Starting port reader."
fhan=serial.Serial(port=keeper.config['usbPort'],
baudrate=keeper.config['usbBaud'], timeout=0.1)
print "1"
fhan.open()
print "2"
seq=PySeq() # the sequencer library object
port=seq.createOutPort(keeper.config['midiPortName']) # make a
midi out port.
midich=keeper.config['midich']
print "3"
while True:
inbuf=[]
print ".",
char=fhan.read(1)
if self.quit:
fhan.close()
return
if len(char)==0: continue
... (code to process the character read in)
('keeper' is a global object which stores the config data and
references to a few key objects).
When you start the program, the thread stops either before the first
print statement, or on the line which initialises the serial port (
fhan=serial.Serial(...) ). '1', '2', and '3' only get printed /after/
you close the gtk main window.
I've verified that the problem is due to the gtk main loop interfering
with the thread I've started. If I use this code:
if __name__ == "__main__":
print "Starting mapper"
keeper=Keeper() # initialise the keeper. (A global object which
holds references to key objects)
keeper.start() # tell the keeper to start the port reader.
for n in xrange(10): # wait for 10 seconds.
time.sleep(1)
print "x"
#gtk.main() # start the gtk main loop.
keeper.stop() # tell the keeper to shut things down.
the program runs correctly. I.e. values are read from the usb port when
they come in.
if I use this code:
if __name__ == "__main__":
print "Starting mapper"
keeper=Keeper() # initialise the keeper. (A global object which
holds references to key objects)
keeper.start() # tell the keeper to start the port reader.
#for n in xrange(10):
# time.sleep(1)
# print "x"
gtk.main() # start the gtk main loop.
keeper.stop() # tell the keeper to shut things down.
The port reader thread blocks at the point it tries to open the serial
port. I.e. 'Starting port reader' is printed straight away, but '1',
'2', and '3' are only printed after you close the gtk main window.
