Hi, I have been following the pypy-dev mailing list for some time, as well as maintaining a anon svn checkout of the pypy source and am really excited by this project (in fact it has inspired me to write my own experimental language in python along similar lines!). I was just wondering whether the project is considered stable enough to accept patches and/or bug reports from people who are not directly developers (i.e me!). I have been playing with getting pypy to run some of my own python programs, and although it seems to get pretty close there are a couple of issues. The first is in appspace/operator.py where if you import this in the trivial object space then is gives errors about modifying a dictionary while iterating over it. This can be fixed by the following patch Index: appspace/operator.py =================================================================== --- appspace/operator.py (revision 5402) +++ appspace/operator.py (working copy) @@ -164,7 +164,7 @@ # ugh: import types as _types -for n in globals(): +for n in list(globals()): v = globals()[n] if isinstance(v, _types.FunctionType): globals()[n] = staticmethod(v) The second is in pprint. If you do
import pprint pprint.pprint([])
you get a massive traceback which I haven't yet quite worked out a fix for. Thanks for your help! Ben Young
