Printed docs legitimate?
by John Bokma June 23, 2010

June 23, 2010

Hi, I participate in a Usenet discussion (comp.lang.python) regarding if: http://www.amazon.com/Python-Reference-Manual-Documentation-Part/dp/1441412… is allowed? I think yes. On top of that, do you know if Python Software Foundation does receive 1USD donations per sold book per "For each copy sold $1 will be donated to the Python Software Foundation by the publisher." I have been considering to buy those manuals but if this is not in agreement with python.org / PSF, let me know. Thanks for your time, John

[issue8340] bytearray undocumented on trunk
by Antoine Pitrou June 21, 2010

June 21, 2010

Antoine Pitrou <pitrou(a)free.fr> added the comment: 'bytes' is an alias for 'str' in 2.x, so it shouldn't be "documented" separately. As for bytearray, yes, it should be added if not present. ---------- nosy: +pitrou _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8340> _______________________________________

[issue8340] bytearray undocumented on trunk
by Mark Dickinson June 21, 2010

June 21, 2010

Mark Dickinson <dickinsm(a)gmail.com> added the comment: Ideally, there should be documentation of 'bytes' and 'bytearray' in the 'Built-in Types' section of the library manual, too. (library/stdtypes.rst). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8340> _______________________________________

bug report: multiprocessing module
by Greenpickle June 20, 2010

June 20, 2010

In particular, the section on Windows (16.6.3.2, the version at http://docs.python.org/library/multiprocessing.html#windows, if there happen to be others). It mentions that the 'main module' must be able to be 'safely imported', but doesn't make it clear that it needs the .py extension, so that it can be imported at all. Just thought it might help others where I spent a few minutes trying to work out what was going wrong.

[issue8939] Use C type names (PyUnicode etc; ) in the C API docs
by STINNER Victor June 20, 2010

June 20, 2010

STINNER Victor <victor.stinner(a)haypocalc.com> added the comment: > Shouldn’t “inside a :ctype:`Py_BEGIN_ALLOW_THREADS` block” rather use “:cmacro:”? Same remark on IRC: "Taggnostr> haypo, in r82084: "Add :ctype: to Py_BEGIN_ALLOW_THREADS and int", maybe :cfunc: (or :cmacro:)?" I don't know :cmacro:. I will fix it in my next patch. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8939> _______________________________________

[issue5005] 3.0 sqlite doc: most examples refer to pysqlite2, use 2.x syntax.
by Terry J. Reedy June 19, 2010

June 19, 2010

Terry J. Reedy <tjreedy(a)udel.edu> added the comment: This issue is about the examples in 11.6.1. Module functions and constants. All 3 points are fixed. The indentation issue seems to have been fixed by making the blank line completely blank with no spaces. I would have removed it, but cut and paste now works. I have no idea what Google has to do with this, but thanks for pinging it. ---------- assignee: -> docs@python components: +Documentation nosy: +docs@python resolution: -> fixed status: open -> closed type: -> behavior versions: +Python 3.1 _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5005> _______________________________________
