zipfile module can't handle large files
by Kevin Ar18 Aug. 30, 2007

Aug. 30, 2007

Create a zip file with a file inside consisting of several GB (say 2 or 5 GB). The zipfile module will fail, when attempting to extract the large file. The issue is near line 490 in zifile.py. It appears that read (a file operation) is unable to read such large amounts of data. I tried editing zipfile.py so that read would read things piece by piece but just got a memory error. Does anyone know how to fix this limitation in the zipfile module? … [View More]

What's the client-side way to run this scan? Can I add it to the regression-test harness? Bill

apt-get install openssl will fix that on those systems. on windows you're unlikely to ever have an openssl binary present and available to execute.

PEP 238 - The // operator should truncate instead of floor
by dany Aug. 29, 2007

Aug. 29, 2007

Hi all First, some background. I've recently tried to port a certain library that manipulates dates from C. Some of the core functions contain heavy integer math (very long formulae), and after implementing them I tested them to see the give the desired results. I got very odd results, which surprised me since I copied the formula letter to letter. I decided to investigate further, and after trying to evaluate several expressions in the python console, I realized it was the integer … [View More]

Triage of old tracker bugs: Any use?
by Sean Reifschneider Aug. 29, 2007

Aug. 29, 2007

I've taken the week off and I'm trying to do something useful for Python in some of my time. I've basically been looking through the entries sorted by priority and least recent activity. Some items I've been able to do something with (like the "immediate" priority %formatting bug #1467929, and the "high" priority bz2 module bug #1597011). Others I've been just kind of prodding people to take some action on, just kind of getting them in front of people again. Keeping them "fresh" instead of … [View More]

Merging a branch, and new docs
by Facundo Batista Aug. 29, 2007

Aug. 29, 2007

Hello everybody. Mark Dickinson helped a lot (*a lot*) with the decimal branch, and we're near to pass the brand new test cases from Cowlishaw. My original idea is to update all the documentation before merging the branch into the trunk, but now that they changed so much, I don't know what to do: - Update all the Doc dir in the branch with the new Doc dir in the trunk, fix the docs, and make the merge. - Merge the branch, and fix the docs directly in the trunk (I promise to fix them months … [View More]
