[issue25017] htmllib deprecated: Which library to use? Missing sane default in docs
by Thomas Guettler Nov. 14, 2015

Nov. 14, 2015

New submission from Thomas Guettler: At the top of the htmllib module: > Deprecated since version 2.6: The htmllib module has been removed in > Python 3. Source: https://docs.python.org/2/library/htmllib.html#module-htmllib Newcomers need more advice: Which library should be used? I know there are many html parsing libraries. But there should be a sane default for newcomers. Is there already an agreement of a sane default html parsing library? ---------- assignee: docs@python … [View More]

[issue25605] fcntl doc: document exceptions raised on error for ioctl() and flock()
by STINNER Victor Nov. 13, 2015

Nov. 13, 2015

New submission from STINNER Victor: Attached patch documents the exception raised when ioctl() or flock() functions fail. Note: flock() can also raises a ValueError if the second parameter (op) is unknown. If the patch is approved, I will write a similar patch for Python 3 (just replace IOError with OSError in Python 3 doc).

[issue25586] socket.sendall broken when a socket has a timeout
by Jakub Stasiak Nov. 13, 2015

Nov. 13, 2015

New submission from Jakub Stasiak: It is my understanding that socket.sendall effectively calls the underlying socket.send's implementation in a retry loop, possibly multiple times. It is also my understanding that each one of those low level send calls can timeout on its own if a socket timeout is set. Considering the above I believe it's undesired to ever call socket.sendall with a socket that has a timeout set because if: 1. At least one send call succeeds 2. A send call after that times … [View More]

Python 2 dis module docs
by Abraham, Hrvoje AVL/HR Nov. 13, 2015

Nov. 13, 2015

dis module https://docs.python.org/2/library/dis.html Documentation does not include BUILD_SET bytecode instruction, although it seems it is present in all Python 2 versions I experimented with. Maybe my reasoning is wrong (maybe BUILD_SET is not considered bytecode inst.), but also maybe there are some other instructions missing. It is present in Python 3 docs. minimal case: import dis def fun(): return {1,2,3,4,5} print dis.dis(fun) output: 49 0 LOAD_CONST 1 (… [View More]

Hello, Quick email to notice about a typo error on the following documentation page : https://docs.python.org/3.5/tutorial/classes.html#method-objects On the last line of the example, a dot is missing between x and f : 9.3.4.
