[issue22304] Update multiprocessing examples to Py3 and test
by Terry J. Reedy Aug. 29, 2014

Aug. 29, 2014

New submission from Terry J. Reedy: https://docs.python.org/2/library/multiprocessing.html#examples contains several examples in Python2 code that need to be updated for Python 3. Richard, if you have them in .py files, perhaps you could run them through 2to3 and then test. # Example where a pool of http servers share a single listening socket from BaseHTTPServer import HTTPServer from SimpleHTTPServer import SimpleHTTPRequestHandler ... print 'Serving at http://%s:%d using %d worker processes' % \ (ADDRESS[0], ADDRESS[1], NUMBER_OF_PROCESSES) print 'To exit press Ctrl-' + ['C', 'Break'][sys.platform=='win32'] #update from http.server import HTTPServer, SimpleHTTPRequestHandler ... print('Serving at http://%s:%d using %d worker processes' % \ (ADDRESS[0], ADDRESS[1], NUMBER_OF_PROCESSES)) print('To exit press Ctrl-' + ['C', 'Break'][sys.platform=='win32']) This still does not run on Windows _pickle.PicklingError: Can't pickle <class '_thread.lock'>: attribute lookup lock on _thread failed but that was true in 2.7 also (#21204). ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 226103 nosy: docs@python, sbt, terry.reedy priority: normal severity: normal stage: needs patch status: open title: Update multiprocessing examples to Py3 and test type: behavior versions: Python 3.4, Python 3.5 _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue22304> _______________________________________

[issue22270] cache version selection for documentation
by Jonas Jelten Aug. 29, 2014

Aug. 29, 2014

New submission from Jonas Jelten: The Python version selection for the documentation should be cached. It's very annoying having to select the preferred version each time one follows a link, e.g. search result, irc post, etc. I'd like to see caching the preferred version in a cookie and automatically switching to this python version when opening doc pages. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 225847 nosy: docs@python, thejj priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: cache version selection for documentation type: enhancement versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.1, Python 3.2, Python 3.3, Python 3.4, Python 3.5 _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue22270> _______________________________________
