libdnet and python (scapy)

I am interested in using libdnet with Python, how can I go about installing it on windows? http://libdnet.sourceforge.net/ Ultimately, I would like to get Scapy (http://www.secdev.org/projects/scapy/) running on windows...currently it is a *nix app written in Python, so I think I should be able

Re: Read / Write image file

so something like, x = sock.recv(1024) while (len(x) 0): # do stuff x = sock.recv(1024) ?? So what if the client sends 4 bytes, and then sends 8000 bytes? WIll I get the first 4 bytes as a separate msg so to speak? Basically i want to catch each message from the client as a whole.

Read / Write image file

I have a image file on my pc, say a .jpg. Basically I want to setup a client/server socket, and I want the client to read in the jpg and send it to the server, where the server can write that data into a new file on the server. I tried just doing something like.. x = open(abc.jpg) y = x.read()

Re: Read / Write image file

thanks Phil, the problem was that I was not using rb and wb. thanks. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: Read / Write image file

By the way, what is 'rb' and 'wb' ? Also, when I create a client/server sockets I do something like... SERVER --- server.bind(('', 4321)) (sock, addr) = server.accept() x = server.recv(1024) CLIENT client.connect(('localhost', 4321)) x = open(abc.txt, rb) client.send(x)

so each character in the string is 1 byte? if so, can u point me to somewhere that states that perhaps? thanks -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

python classes/file structure

What is the best/common way to structure ur python code for an application? For example...if I create some custom GUI widgets I have this C:\stuff -- gui --: MyCustomWidget.py --: TestWidgets.py so MyCustomWidget.py has one class, class MyCustomWidget: ... so from

Regular Expressions - Python vs Perl

Hi, I am interested in regular expressions and how Perl and Python compare. Particulary, I am interested in performance (i.e. speed), memory usage, flexibility, completeness (i.e. supports simple and complex regex operations...basically is RegEx a strong module/library in Python?) Anyone

Re: Regular Expressions - Python vs Perl

Well so far from what I have found, Perl is faster than Python for RegEx, although perl is harder to read. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: Regular Expressions - Python vs Perl

I found some benchmarking (perhaps simple) but search for The Great Computer language shootout look at the original shootout and the win32 one. Thomas: I doubt the total execution time for all the RegEx queries you ever ran took as much time as you just wasted on your little experiment.

Re: python classes/file structure

Thanks, but I am not familiar with the __all__ variable, could u give me an example? Without using, __all__would i do this in my __init__.py? import MyCustomWidget1 import MyCustomWidget2 import MyCustomWidget3 etc? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: Regular Expressions - Python vs Perl

Thanks for the input. I was just looking for some feedback about which was better and faster, if an answer exists. However, I am not choosing Perl or Python b/c of it's RegEx engine as someone mentioned. The question was just because I was curious, sorry if I misled you to think I was choosing

Update Label when Scale value changes

Hi, I am using Tkinter and I have a Label and a Scale. I want to update my label everytime the Scale value changes. What is the best way of doing this? Do i have to bind for every event type? Or is there some better way? If I do have to bind each type of event to the scale, what types occur

Re: Update Label when Scale value changes

Yea that is what i needed. Can you recommend a good Tkinter site (or book, but preferably site) about learning Tkinter. I've tried: http://www.python.org/moin/TkInter http://www.pythonware.com/library/tkinter/introduction/ But I am looking for more about events, etc. Thanks --

Tkinter Tkconstants

Hi, I was reading through the Tkinter tutorial at http://www.pythonware.com/library/tkinter/introduction/index.htm ...and it mentions that by doing, from Tkinter import * you have access to the constants in Tkconstants, since Tkinter imports it automatically. However, in the shell if I do..
