argparse doc improvement
by Michael Cowperthwaite March 29, 2017

March 29, 2017

https://docs.python.org/2/library/argparse.html#invalid-arguments When it encounters such an error, it exits and prints the error along with > a usage message: "It" in the sentence refers to the parse_args() method. Saying that "it exits" makes it sound as if the method exits. Rather, an error in parsing causes sys.exit() to be called, exiting the entire script. Suggested rewrite: When it encounters such an error, parse_args() prints the error and a usage > message, then causes the script to exit immediately. No exception is raised. Whether it's worth noting that the exit is the result of sys.exit(), I can't say. I don't need that level of detail. -- *Michael Cowperthwaite* Sr. Software Engineer Accel Biotech LLC, a Ximedica company 103 Cooper Court, Los Gatos, CA 95032 408.354.1700 x <408.354.1700%20x%20307>559 www.accelbiotech.com Providence | Minneapolis | San Francisco | Los Gatos | Hong Kong Visit us at www.ximedica.com and read our blog, *Living Innovation. <http://www.ximedica.com/People/LivingInnovationBlog.aspx>* The information contained in this transmission may contain privileged and confidential information.

[issue23487] argparse: add_subparsers 'action' broken
by paul j3 March 28, 2017

March 28, 2017

paul j3 added the comment: I'm going to close this. At most it calls for a documentation change. But saying something like It must be compatible with argparse._SubParsersAction. will just confuse the average user. Any customization of this action class is an advanced topic, that requires familiarity with the code, not just the documentation. ---------- resolution: -> rejected stage: -> resolved status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue23487> _______________________________________

[issue10379] locale.format() input regression
by R. David Murray March 28, 2017

March 28, 2017

R. David Murray added the comment: Oops. I merged the patch without coming back here first :(. Still getting used to the new workflow. It turns out that format has a parameter, monetary, that isn't supported by format_string. So what we did was add that parameter to format_string and deprecate format. If there is objection to this solution I will revert the merge. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10379> _______________________________________
