[issue14515] tempfile.TemporaryDirectory documented as returning object but returns name
by R. David Murray Feb. 5, 2014

Feb. 5, 2014

New submission from R. David Murray <rdmurray(a)bitdance.com>: The title pretty much says it all. I believe the behavior is correct (more useful than returning an object that is only useful for obtaining the name) even though it is unusual for context managers. In any case there is plenty of code using the existing behavior, so I think this is a doc bug. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 157635 nosy: docs@python, r.david.murray priority: normal … [View More]

[issue20501] fileinput module will read whole file into memory when using fileinput.hook_encoded
by Serhiy Storchaka Feb. 5, 2014

Feb. 5, 2014

Serhiy Storchaka added the comment: As far as the issue is in the codecs module, this is 2.7 only issue, because codecs.open is used only in 2.7. And I suppose that replacing codecs.open by io.open should fix this issue. ---------- keywords: +patch nosy: +benjamin.peterson, hynek, pitrou, serhiy.storchaka, stutzbach stage: -> patch review versions: -Python 3.3, Python 3.4 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file33934/fileinput_hook_encoded.patch _______________________________________ … [View More]

[issue20501] fileinput module will read whole file into memory when using fileinput.hook_encoded
by R. David Murray Feb. 5, 2014

Feb. 5, 2014

R. David Murray added the comment: Yes, please make another issue for the enhancement request. That issue can start out agnostic as to whether it is codecs or fileinput that could use improvement, if you prefer. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue20501> _______________________________________

[issue20501] fileinput module will read whole file into memory when using fileinput.hook_encoded
by Gunnar Aastrand Grimnes Feb. 5, 2014

Feb. 5, 2014

Gunnar Aastrand Grimnes added the comment: Agreed that a doc-fix is the first step. Shall I make another issue for the fix in fileinput? I also wonder if the comment in codecs is not too negative - it is not easy to get it 100% right, but the method just above readlines is readline, which does somehow manage to read a single line. To me it seems like it would be better to makes readlines repeatedly call readline. It would also be inefficient, but still better than reading the whole (… [View More]

[issue20509] logging.config.fileConfig() docs could link to the config file format
by Marius Gedminas Feb. 4, 2014

Feb. 4, 2014

New submission from Marius Gedminas: When one is reading the description of logging.config.fileConfig() at http://docs.python.org/3.3/library/logging.config.html#logging.config.fileC… not immediately apparent what the "configparser-format file" should contain (i.e. the naming convention for sections, and what keys mean what.) This is all nicely described at http://docs.python.org/3.3/library/logging.config.html#configuration-file-f… but personal experience shows that users like me hit Page … [View More]
