April 3, 2008

For your information: I won't have time to do another svn merge before the next alphas of 2.6 and 3.0 are to be released. Somebody else has to do the merge. Christian

Hi, I have an application that used python on linux. I want to port it to run on ThreadX. Can you tell me if this can be possible. If yes, how can I get started. Thanks.

Tracing at a more granular level (branch coverage)
by m h April 2, 2008

April 2, 2008

Howdy Folks- I hope this is not too off topic. Sadly the current sys.settrace only allows tracing at the line level. This isn't sufficient to do branch and path coverage. The main problem is that many boolean operations can appear on a single line, and so you can't be sure which conditional branch was taken using the current tracing method. After speaking about code complexity/testing at Pycon [0], with a few people there, and seeing a few people have made some strides or shown interested … [View More]

refleaks on trunk
by Neal Norwitz April 1, 2008

April 1, 2008
