Unusual problem.
by Maciek Fijalkowski June 2, 2007

I want to wrap termios lib, also for RPython. everything works quite smooth except error reporting. termios.tcgetattr (and others as well) use termios.error for error reporting, which is exception which cannot be used in a translated version. Hence my ll_termios_tcgetattr raises OSError instead (it's not mentioned anywhere in documentation of termios library, nor present in any CPython tests, but well...) So than arises a problem - ll version rises OSError, while default one raises … [View More]

I would like to organize mini sprint (2-3 days) in Wroclaw. It would be hold on Wroclaw University of Technology. There are possible two alternative dates: 2-3th June 16(15)-17th June It depends how fast we can organize ourselves. Is there anybody, who would like to participate? Cheers, Jakub Gutsak p.s. I have a feeling, that I spend too much time doing that kind of stuff instead of coding my project.

Using pypy for real world applications part pi/2
by Maciek Fijalkowski June 2, 2007

I've found an unusual problem regarding rctypes - in implementation of fcntl.ioctl, ioctl can return a string containing 0 bytes, because the length is somehow defined. Our rctypes (or implementation itself, I failed to find by now) assume that string is null terminated. The unusual thing about this is that on top of ctypes it works perfectly well. Any ideas how to fix it? I think I'll go to bed now and wait for someone else to take a look... Cheers, fijal

June 1, 2007

Hi all, we yesterday successfully passed the EU review of our 28 month PyPy EU project period! We gave almost 6 hours worth of talks and got a lot of good questions and remarks ... all of our results met appreciation! I am relieved - and my thanks to everybody involved and to everyone who helped! cheers & best, holger P.S.: As i've heard the thought from some people that the EU might "prolong funding" if PyPy is successful: this is not how it works. We had a … [View More]
