Multiprocessing module needs some patches to succesfully builing
and running on NetBSD. I made this patch and test on NetBSD 5rc2
(upcoming release).
1. we need working socket module (Modules/socketmodule.c)
2. mremap under NetBSD has different semantics:
(Modules/mmapmodule.c)
3. finally, we need settings for netbsd in setup.py:
(setup.py)
After patching and building:
netbsd5# ./python -bb -E Lib/test/regrtest.py test_multiprocessing
test_multiprocessing
1 test OK.

New submission from Armin Ronacher <armin.ronacher at active-4.com>:
Sorry for the harsh words, but when I found that code I nearly freaked
out. For all those years I was using "from mimetypes import guess_type"
until today I found out that this has horrendous performance problems
due to the fact that the mimetype database is re-parsed on each call.
The reason for this is that mimetypes.guess_type is implemented like this:
def guess_type(...):
global guess_type
init()
guess_type = new_guess_type
return guess_type(...)
Obviously if the function was imported from the module and not looked up
via standard attribute lookup before each call (by calling it like
mimetypes.guess_type(...)) init() would be called over and over again.
What's the performance impact? In a small WSGI middleware that serves
static files the *total* performance impact (including HTTP header
parsing, file serving etc.) was 1000%. Just for guess_type() versus
mimetypes.guess_type() which was called just once per request.
I attached a workaround for that problem that tries to avoid init()
calls after the thing was initialized.
If this is intended behaviour it should be documented but I doubt that
this is a good idea as people don't read documentation it stuff seems to
work.
And google tells me I'm not the first one who invoked guess_type that
way: http://google.com/codesearch?q="from+mimetypes+import+guess_type"

New submission from Jim Jewett <jimjjewett at users.sourceforge.net>:
Copy of issue 5397
In python 3, UserDict (and DictMixin) are gone; presumably they should
be replaced by either a dict subclass or the ABC MutableMapping.
Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a clean way to inherit from
both.
In python 2.x, you could write
class MyDict(DictMixin, dict): ...
but with
class MyDict(MutableMapping, dict): ...
MutableMapping explicitly overrides __getitem__, __setitem__, and
__delitem__ to raise a KeyError.
The OrderedDict implementation in issue 5397 puts the concrete class
first, and then handles composite methods manually, by either rewriting
them (repr, copy) or explicitly delegating past dict and straight to
MutableMapping (setdefault, update, etc.)
Both solutions seem fragile.
Unfortunately, the closest I come to a solution is to split the ABC
into a Mixin portion and an ABC enforcer.
# The concrete methods of the current ABC
class MapMixin:
# The abstract methods that get checked
class MutableMapping(MapMixin):
# Trust that dict will always implement
# all required concrete methods for us
class MyDict(MapMixin, dict):

Message-ID: <1235984629.04.0.168155698084.issue5404@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
New submission from Joshua Kinard <kumba at gentoo.org>:
I'm attempting to get Python to cross-compile, and I'm not sure if this
is an actual flaw in the build system or not, but thought I'd detail
what I can here and seek comment from those in the know.
What happens is under a cross-environment setup on a Gentoo installation
(using our sys-devel/crossdev and sys-devel/crossdev-wrappers package),
when cross-compiling from x86_64-pc-linux-gnu to
mipsel-unknown-linux-gnu, the Python build process fails to build
several modules/extensions.
I believe that part of the problem with building the extensions is on
our end, and is a separate item I'll track down myself. But there is
one module in particular that looks tied to Python's core that's getting
a cross-compile error: _socket.
What happens is, somehow, the configure script (or setup.py) is defining
HAVE_SYS_PARAM_H, which pulls in sys/param.h -- I think this is normal,
but for socketmodule.c, that particular call by the Makefile passes in
-I/usr/include along with the other -I calls defining the cross-include
directories. The mipsel cross-compiler then references x86_64-specific
assembler code within the sys/param.h copy in /usr/include, and fails.
Generally, our crossdev-wrappers package sets up the buil environment
and overrides a lot of the common variables to use the cross-toolchain.
So far, it looks like only socketmodule.c is affected with the rogue
-I/usr/include getting pulled in. I haven't had much luck trying to
track down just how Python's build system is tied into autotools to see
where it's picking up /usr/include from. Already tried patching
setup.py some, as well as passing --oldincludedir to configure, but
neither approach worked.
I'm hoping that this is either a minor bug in the build system, or we're
missing a specific variable to be passed to the make process so that
-I/usr/include doesn't get defined. Not sure which, so if there's any
other ideas to try, I'm all ears!

New submission from Paul Moore <p.f.moore at gmail.com>:
There is no way to determine the list of classes for which issubclass(C,
x) is true. The MRO of the class is fine for normal inheritance, but for
ABCs it is possible to register classes which don't inherit from the
ABC, so that you have a situation where issubclass (C, MyABC) can be
true without MyABC being in C.__mro__:
>>> import abc
>>> class MyABC(object):
... __metaclass__ = abc.ABCMeta
...
>>> class C(object):
... pass
...
>>> MyABC.register(C)
>>> issubclass(C, MyABC)
True
>>> C.__mro__
(<class '__main__.C'>, <type 'object'>)
>>>
This means that ABCs do not play well with the type of introspection
required to implement such features as generic functions - namely
enumeration of the (logical) superclasses of a class.

I came from issue5391. Here is quote of Victor's message.
>* msvcrt.putch(char), msvcrt.ungetch(char): msvcrt has also:

> - msvcrt.putwch(unicode string of 1 character)

And msvcrt.ungetwch() calls _ungetch not _ungetwch. Here is the patch
hopefully fixing these issue. (I cannot test wide version of functions
because VC6 don't have them)

This is a patch against the configparser in the cvs version of 3.1 to
support [] notation:
>>> import configparser_patched
>>> config = configparser_patched.SafeConfigParser()
>>> config.add_section("spam")
>>> config["spam", "eggs"] = "yummy"
>>> config["spam", "eggs"]
'yummy'
>>> del config["spam", "eggs"]
>>>
The functions are just syntactic sugar for the simple forms of "get",
"set", and "remove_option".

Note that binascii.a2b_uu("\0") returns

This appears to be the same as binascii.a2b_uu() which is most likely
not the intention.
Also, binascii.a2b_uu("\0\0") returns an exception, "Illegal char",
which makes sense.

New submission from Ren? Puls <rene.puls at repro-mayr.de>:
I am trying to recreate the sample output from appendix B of RFC 4122.
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4122.txt
In that document, a version 3 UUID is created using the DNS namespace
(6ba7b810-9dad-11d1-80b4-00c04fd430c8, same as uuid.NAMESPACE_DNS in
Python) and the name 'www.widgets.com'.
The result according to the RFC should be:
e902893a-9d22-3c7e-a7b8-d6e313b71d9f
Here is the output from the Python uuid module:
>>> import uuid
>>> uuid.NAMESPACE_DNS
UUID('6ba7b810-9dad-11d1-80b4-00c04fd430c8')
>>> uuid.uuid3(uuid.NAMESPACE_DNS, 'www.widgets.com')
UUID('3d813cbb-47fb-32ba-91df-831e1593ac29')
I couldn't find any test cases for the Python module. Did I use it
incorrectly, or is the calculation really off?

New submission from Mitchell Model <mlm at acm.org>:
There needs to be something somewhere in the documentation that makes
the simple point that data coming in from the web is bytes not strings,
which is a big change from Python 2, and that it needs to be manipulated
as such, including writing in binary mode.
I am not sure what documentation should be changed, but I do think
something is missing, because I just ran around in circles on this one
for quite some time. Perhaps the Unicode HOWTO needs more information;
possibly urllib.request does; maybe a combination of things have to be
added to several documentation files. Here's what happened:
I wanted to read from a web page, make some string replacements, and
save to a file, so I wrote code that boils down to something like:
with open('url.html', 'w') as fil:
fil.write(urllib.request.open(aURL).read()).replace(str1, str2)
The first thing that happened was an error telling me that I can't write
bytes to a text stream, so I realized that read() was returning a bytes
object, which makes sense.
So I converted it to a string, but that put a b' at the beginning of the
file and a ' at the end! Bad.
Instead of str(thebytes) I did the proper thing: thebytes.decode(), and
wrote that to the file.
But then I found that Non-ASCII characters created problems -- they were
saved in the file as \xNN\xNN or even three \x's, then displayed as
garbage when the page was opened in a browser.
So I tried decoding using different codecs but couldn't find one that
worked for the ? and the emdash that were in the response.
Finally I realized that the whole thing was a delusion: obviously
urlopen responses have to return bytes objects, and adding 'b' to the
'w' when opening the output file fixed everything. (I also had to change
my replacement strings to bytes.)
I went back to the relevant documentation multiple times, including
after I figured everything out, and I can't convince myself that it
makes the connection anywhere between bytes coming in, manipulating the
bytes as bytes, and writing out in binary. Yes, in retrospect this all
makes sense and perhaps even should have been obvious, but I am quite
sure I won't be the only experienced Python 2 programmer to trip over
this when making the transition to Python 3.
I apologize in advance if the requested documentation exists and I
didn't find it, in which case I would appreciate a pointer to where it
is lies.

Subject: [New-bugs-announce] [issue5421] Irritating error message by
socket's sendto method
In-Reply-To: <1236248103.61.0.911918415156.issue5421@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
Message-ID: <1236248103.61.0.911918415156.issue5421@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
New submission from Manuel Hermann <manuel-hermann at gmx.net>:
When sending unexpected data via a socket's sentdo method, a TypeError
is raised with the fallowing message: "sendto() takes exactly 3
arguments (2 given)". But two arguments are sufficient.
Examples for Python 2.x:
import socket
my_socket = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM)
# this will succeed
my_socket.sendto("Foobar", ("localhost", 514))
# these will fail with above error message
my_socket.sendto(u"Umlaut ?", ("localhost", 514))
my_socket.sendto(1, ("localhost", 514))
Examples for Python 3:
import socket
my_socket = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM)
# this will succeed
my_socket.sendto("No Umlaut".encode("ascii"), ("localhost", 514))
# these will fail with above error message
my_socket.sendto("No Umlaut", ("localhost", 514))
my_socket.sendto(1, ("localhost", 514))

New submission from Chris Withers <chris at simplistix.co.uk>:
Hi All,
I'm splitting this out from [Issue1823] as it's a separate issue.
Here's a minimal case to reproduce:
>>> from email.MIMEMultipart import MIMEMultipart
>>> from email.MIMEText import MIMEText
>>> msg = MIMEMultipart()
>>> msg.attach(MIMEText('foo','plain'))
>>> msg.set_charset('utf-8')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
File "C:\python24\lib\email\Message.py", line 260, in set_charset
self._payload = charset.body_encode(self._payload)
File "C:\python24\lib\email\Charset.py", line 366, in body_encode
return email.base64MIME.body_encode(s)
File "C:\python24\lib\email\base64MIME.py", line 136, in encode
enc = b2a_base64(s[i:i + max_unencoded])
TypeError: b2a_base64() argument 1 must be string or read-only buffer,
not list
NB: The exception raised can vary depending on the character set used:
>>> msg.set_charset('iso-8859-15')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
File "C:\python24\lib\email\Message.py", line 260, in set_charset

New submission from Philipp Hagemeister <phihag at phihag.de>:
Currently, the testStringToIPv6 and testIPv6ToStrings tests in
Lib/test/test_socket.py only check for variants 1 and 2 (but not 3) from
RFC 4291 2.2.
Furthermore, there are no assertions that check wrong inputs are
appropriately refused in any of the packed IP conversion tests.
The attached patch adds a number of assertions covering those.

New submission from Memeplex <carlosjosepita at gmail.com>:
For example, after that "normalization", quoted printable encoded
headers (as described at rfc 2047) longer than 76 characters are
splitted in two different ill-formed headers because the soft LF line
break becomes a "hard" CRLF one. This is clearly wrong.
rfc 2060 specifically allows CR and LF inside literals:
"""
A literal is a sequence of zero or more octets (including CR and LF),
prefix-quoted with an octet count in the form of an open brace ("{"),
the number of octets, close brace ("}"), and CRLF.
"""

C:\Users\Nigel\myPython\iajaar>C:\Users\Nigel\swigwin-1.3.38\swig -
c++ -python -py3 NigelzGLPK.swg
generated a C++ wrapper and a Python file. When I attempted to compile
the wrapper against Python 3.0.1 it failed see the output log at the
end of this message.
I decided to modify object.h from C:\Python30\include:
typedef PyObject *(*getattrofunc)(PyObject *, PyObject *);
typedef int (*setattrfunc)(PyObject *, char *, PyObject *);
typedef int (*setattrofunc)(PyObject *, PyObject *, PyObject *);
typedef PyObject *(*reprfunc)(PyObject *);
typedef PyObject *(*getattrofunc)(PyObject *, PyObject *);
typedef int (*setattrfunc)(PyObject *, char *, PyObject *);
typedef int (*cmpfunc)(PyObject *, PyObject *);
typedef int (*setattrofunc)(PyObject *, PyObject *, PyObject *);
typedef PyObject *(*reprfunc)(PyObject *);
adding the typedef for cmpfunc. It then compiles fine, AND appears to
work.

New submission from Jim Correia <jim.correia at pobox.com>:
The module doc string contains an example with hex escape sequences (see
below). They are converted to their literal values by pydoc, which
results in an unexpected encoding for the output of pydoc.
(raw string, or proper escaping solves the problem)
Relevant chunk of the file:
anotherString="<hello & hi there!>",
aUnicodeValue=u'M\xe4ssig, Ma\xdf',
aTrueValue=True,
aFalseValue=False,
),
someData = Data("<binary gunk>"),
someMoreData = Data("<lots of binary gunk>" * 10),
aDate =
datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp(time.mktime(time.gmtime())),
)
# unicode keys are possible, but a little awkward to use:
pl[u'\xc5benraa'] = "That was a unicode key."

This is with the io-c code:
>>> dec = io.IncrementalNewlineDecoder(None, translate=False)
>>> dec.newlines
>>> dec.decode("\u0A00")
'\u0a00'
>>> dec.newlines
'\n'
dec.newlines should have remained equal to None. It only affects the
computation of the newlines property and shouldn't produce incorrect
decoding results.

New submission from Jess Austin <jess.austin at gmail.com>:
datetime is a wonderful module. Perhaps the only inconvenient aspect of
using it is dealing with month calculations and comparisons. This patch
adds a simple class, monthdelta, which represents date offsets in terms
of months. It supports basic integer-like arithmetic, and also it may
be added to dates and datetimes. It deals sensibly with leap-year and
month-length issues. Also provided is a function, monthmod (named by
imperfect analogy to divmod), which allows round-tripping: that is,
taking 2 dates and returning a (monthdelta, timedelta) tuple that
represents the interim between the dates.
Note: I have named the class "monthdelta", but in light of recent
python-dev discussions I should probably rename this to "MonthDelta".

The PyExc_MemoryErrorInst object is persistent and its members never get
cleared. This means any local variable which gets caught in the
traceback isn't deallocated until the next MemoryError (!). Sample
script demonstrates this.
(this doesn't seem to affect 2.x because the traceback isn't attached to
the exception instance)

New submission from Nick Coghlan <ncoghlan at gmail.com>:
For quick and dirty benchmarking, timeit.main() is one of the handiest
tools out there, but calling it from Python code is a little tedious
since you need to construct a fake list of command line arguments in
order to call it.
What would be nice is a convenience function that accepted appropriate
arguments, with timeit.main being refactored to parse the command line
arguments and then call the new convenience function.
Possible API:
def measure(stmt="pass", setup="pass", timer=default_timer,
repeat=default_repeat, number=default_number,
verbosity=0, precision=3)
The new function would cover the latter section of the current main()
function, starting from the line "t = Timer(stmt, setup, timer)".

New submission from Daniel Lescohier <daniel.lescohier at cbs.com>:
This is the implementation of codecs.Streamwriter.writelines for all
Python versions that I've checked:
def writelines(self, list):
""" Writes the concatenated list of strings to the stream
using .write().
"""
self.write(''.join(list))
This may be a problem if the 'list' parameter is a generator. The
generator may be returning millions of values, which the join will
concatenate in memory. It can surprise the programmer with large
memory use. I think join should only be used when you know the size of
your input, and this method does not know this. I think the safe
implementation of this method would be:
def writelines(self, list):
""" Writes the concatenated list of strings to the stream
using .write().
"""
write = self.write
for value in list:
write(value)
If a caller knows that it's input list would use a reasonable amount
of memory, it can get the same functionality as before by doing
stream.write(''.join(list)).

Message-ID: <1236543825.99.0.833291294426.issue5448@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
New submission from Daniel Lescohier <daniel.lescohier at cbs.com>:
I would like to get the decimal precision of decimal.Decimal objects
(for my application, in order to validate whether a Decimal value will
fit in the defined decimal precision of a database field). The way I
found to get it was with:
precision = len(value._int)
where value is a decimal.Decimal object.
However, this uses a private API (_int). I would like to have a public
API to get the decimal precision of a Decimal. I propose we add the
following to the decimal.Decimal class:
@property
def precision(self):
"""The precision of this Decimal value."""
return len(self._int)
decimal.Context has a precision for calculations.
decimal.Decimal.precision is the minimum precision needed to represent
that value, not the precision that was used in calculating it. If one
wants to, one can actually use Decimal.precision to set your Context's
precision:
d1 = decimal.Decimal('999')
d2 = d1
context.prec = d1.precision + d2.precision
d3 = d1 * d2
Open for debate is whether to name it Decimal.prec to mirror
Context.prec. We'd have to choose one or the other or both:
@property
def precision(self):
"""The precision of this Decimal value."""
return len(self._int)
prec = precision

accepting arbitrary keyword arguments

Message-ID: <1236556380.35.0.110625961105.issue5449@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
New submission from Erick Tryzelaar <idadesub at users.sourceforge.net>:
I noticed that it was possible to specify arbitrary arguments to
io.BytesIO:
>>> io.BytesIO(b'foo', foo=1)
<_io.BytesIO object at 0x430150>
But io.StringIO doesn't:
>>> io.StringIO('foo', foo=1)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: 'foo' is an invalid keyword argument for this function
So, I've attached a little patch that uses the same technique 3.1a1 uses
to parse the arguments. One thing to be aware of is that I named the
kwarg "intial_bytes" just like http://docs.python.org/3.0/library/io.html#io.BytesIO instead of
"inital_value" like io.StringIO. I'm not sure if it'd be desirable to be
consistent between the two.

New submission from R. David Murray <rdmurray at bitdance.com>:
If the DISPLAY environment variable is set, the test_tcl test
'testLoadTk' gives a traceback. In the same circumstance, test_tk and
test_ttkguionly display the error and are skipped. Although this is a
nit rather than a problem, for consistencies sake I think the testLoadTk
test should also be skipped rather than show up as a failure. I've
attached a patch against the trunk that does this, with the caveat that
it is an individual testcase being skipped so it doesn't get recorded in
the 'skipped tests' summary. I don't think this is a problem since
test_tk will likely show up in the skipped tests if this one is skipped,
and also there are circumstances in which testLoadTkFailure is skipped
completely silently.
Perhaps the real problem is that the tk tests should be in test_tk
instead of test_tcl?

Message-ID: <1236557394.75.0.991537518962.issue5451@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
New submission from Erick Tryzelaar <idadesub at users.sourceforge.net>:
I noticed that io.StringIO is inconsistent with open on how newlines are
handled. The default approach open uses is universal newlines:
>>> with open('foo', 'w') as f:
... f.write('hello hi\r\nla la\r\n')
...
17
>>> open('foo').readlines()
['hello hi\n', 'la la\n']
io.StringIO, however, defaults to just treating \n as newlines:
>>> io.StringIO('hello hi\r\nla la \r\n').readlines()
['hello hi\r\n', 'la la \r\n']
The attached patch changes this so that if the newline keyword isn't
specified, then StringIO will act just like open with respect to
keywords. It will then produce this:
>>> io.StringIO('hello hi\r\nla la \r\n').readlines()
['hello hi\n', 'la la \n']

(this is redirecting from http://bugs.python.org/issue5451). The
documentation for io.StringIO is incorrect on the arguments. First off, it
doesn't actually accept the "encoding" and "errors" arguments. Second,
it's not stated that the default "newline" argument is "\n", as opposed to
it's parent class TextIOWrapper, which defaults to None.

patch)
In-Reply-To: <1236564146.1.0.579118375216.issue5453@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
Message-ID: <1236564146.1.0.579118375216.issue5453@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
New submission from dariusp <dariusp at internode.on.net>:
pydoc -k fails for both release30-maint and py3k.
In release30-maint the python io module (or more accurately the
underlying codecs module used by the io module) raises a
LookupError if the encoding is invalid. There is a test module
with a deliberate encoding misspelled as "uft-8". In py3k the C
io module doesn't raise this exception.
In addition both release30-maint and py3k raise a SyntaxError if
the BOM is invalid. Again there is a test module with an invalid
BOM.
The only difference between the patch for release30-maint and the
patch for py3k is that py3k doesn't catch LookupError since the C
io module doesn't raise it.
Apart from that, pkgutil.py handles SyntaxError the same as
ImportError and returns None. pydoc.py handles receiving the
None and also handles the LookupError the same as
UnicodeDecodeError.
A test was added to test_pydoc.py to ensure that a keyword search
sends text to stdout and nothing to stderr.

Subject: [New-bugs-announce] [issue5454] pydoc -k fails (py3k patch)
In-Reply-To: <1236564380.19.0.502429557812.issue5454@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
Message-ID: <1236564380.19.0.502429557812.issue5454@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
New submission from dariusp <dariusp at internode.on.net>:
Apologies for the duplicate issue, but I wanted to supply two
patches (one for release30-maint and one for py3k) and appears
that each issue can only have one file.
pydoc -k fails for both release30-maint and py3k.
In release30-maint the python io module (or more accurately the
underlying codecs module used by the io module) raises a
LookupError if the encoding is invalid. There is a test module
with a deliberate encoding misspelled as "uft-8". In py3k the C
io module doesn't raise this exception.
In addition both release30-maint and py3k raise a SyntaxError if
the BOM is invalid. Again there is a test module with an invalid
BOM.
The only difference between the patch for release30-maint and the
patch for py3k is that py3k doesn't catch LookupError since the C
io module doesn't raise it.
Apart from that, pkgutil.py handles SyntaxError the same as
ImportError and returns None. pydoc.py handles receiving the
None and also handles the LookupError the same as
UnicodeDecodeError.
A test was added to test_pydoc.py to ensure that a keyword search
sends text to stdout and nothing to stderr.

Subject: [New-bugs-announce] [issue5455] csv module no longer works as
expected when file opened in binary mode

New submission from Skip Montanaro <skip at pobox.com>:
I just discovered that the csv module's reader class in 3.x doesn't work
as expected when used as documented. The requirement has always been
that the CSV file is opened in binary mode so that embedded newlines in
fields are screwed up. Alas, in 3.x files opened in binary mode return
their contents as bytes, not unicode strings which are apparently not
allowed by the next() builtin:
% python3.1
Python 3.1a0 (py3k:70084M, Feb 28 2009, 20:46:48)
[GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5490)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import csv
>>> next(csv.reader(open("f.csv", "rb")))
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
_csv.Error: iterator should return strings, not bytes (did you open the
file in text mode?)
>>> next(csv.reader(open("f.csv", "r")))
['col1', 'col2', 'color']
At the very least the documentation for the csv.reader class is no
longer correct. However, I can't see how you can open a CSV file in
text mode and not screw up embedded newlines. I think binary mode
*has* to stay and some other way of dealing with bytes has to be found.

New submission from Erick Tryzelaar <idadesub at users.sourceforge.net>:
Python version 3.0.1's io.StringIO has a bug when trying to use
universal newlines on the mac. It's fixed in 3.1a1 though. Here's the
exception:
>>> io.StringIO('hello there\r\nlela\r\n', newline=None).readlines()
Traceback (most recent call last):

The broken code is this:
if self._readtranslate:
if crlf:
output = input.replace("\r\n", "\n")
if cr:
output = input.replace("\r", "\n")
else:
output = input
It appears to fix the problem if we do this:
output = input
if self._readtranslate:
if crlf:
output = output.replace("\r\n", "\n")
if cr:
output = output.replace("\r", "\n")

See the attached unit test. On seconds that are > 0 and < 60 the written
second is reduced by 1.
(The test doesn't explicitly prove that this happens during writing, but
we checked this manually. The read function is fine.)

Subject: [New-bugs-announce] [issue5460] Python 3.0 grammar is ambiguous
with the addition of star_expr
In-Reply-To: <1236625214.13.0.530481898617.issue5460@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
Message-ID: <1236625214.13.0.530481898617.issue5460@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
New submission from Fabio Zadrozny <fabioz at users.sourceforge.net>:
Note: A discussion related to this bug was raised on:
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2009-March/086939.html
The following constructs are ambiguous in the Python 3.0 grammar:
arglist: (argument ',')*
(argument [',']
|'*' test (',' argument)* [',' '**' test]
|'**' test
)
argument: test [comp_for]
test: or_test
or_test: and_test
and_test: not_test
not_test: 'not' not_test | comparison
comparison: star_expr
star_expr: ['*'] expr
So, with that construct, having call(arglist) in a format:
call(*test), the grammar would find it to be consumed in the argument
construction (because of the star_expr) and not in the arglist in the
'*' test.
Python seems to be lucky in this because it seems to be getting in the
correct choice, when that's not really possible from the grammar --
maybe it tries the 2nd construct before the 1st and succeeds because of
that? It seems to me that this could actually be a bug in the Python
grammar generator.
It doesn't seem possible to disambiguate that without semantic actions
later on, but the grammar could be changed to disambiguate that.
I've used the constructs below in a JavaCC grammar successfully (and I
think Python could use the same constructs):
expr_stmt: testlist_star_expr (augassign (yield_expr|testlist) |
('=' (yield_expr|testlist_star_expr))*)
testlist_star_expr: (test|star_expr) (',' test|star_expr)* [',']
star_expr: '*' expr

New submission from David Ripton <d+python at ripton.net>:
When Python 2.x is manually installed on Linux, a python2 symlink is
created, like this:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Jan 24 00:03 /usr/bin/python2 -> python2.6
("make install" updates the symlink; "make altinstall" does not).
When Python 3.x is installed, no python3 symlink is created.
For Python 2.x, one had a choice of #!/usr/bin/python,
#!/usr/bin/python2, or #!/usr/bin/python2.6 for shebang line.
For Python 3.x, the middle choice is lost. This seems like a small
regression.

New submission from Dan Mahn <dan.mahn at digidescorp.com>:
urllib.parse.urlencode() uses quote_plus() extensively to create a
complete query string, but doesn't effectively/properly take advantage
of the flexibility built into quote_plus(). Namely:
1) Instances of type "bytes" are not properly encoded, as str() is used
prior to passing to quote_plus(). This creates a nonsensical string
such as b'1234', while quote_plus() can handle these types properly if
passed intact. The ability to encode this type is particularly useful
for putting binary data into the query string, or for pre-encoded text
which you may want to encode in a non-standard character encoding.
2) Sometimes it would be desirable to encode query strings entirely in
"latin-1" or possibly "ascii" instead of "utf-8". Adding the extra
parameters now present on quote_plus() can easily give that extra
functionality.
I have attached a new version of urlencode() that provides both of the
above fixes/enhancements. Additionally, an unused codepath in the
existing function has been eliminated/cleaned up. Some doctests are
included as well.

Message-ID: <1236704390.32.0.698658997265.issue5469@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
New submission from Mitchell Model <mlm at acm.org>:
In the Python Language Reference, in the Naming and binding section of
Execution Model, there is a paragraph that states:
The following constructs bind names: formal parameters to functions,
import statements, class and function definitions (these bind the class
or function name in the defining block), and targets that are
identifiers if occurring in an assignment, for loop header, or in the
second position of an except clause header. The import statement of the
form ?from ...import *? binds all names defined in the imported module,
except those beginning with an underscore. This form may only be used at
the module level.
This misdescribes the except clause, which now uses "as", and omits the
"with ... as" construct which also binds names.

lib\distutils\tests\test_util.py, run as part of the full testsuite,

However, it fails to restore it correctly -- ie fails to delete the

as a part of regrtest, since they rely on os.uname raising an
AttributeError on, eg, Windows.

New submission from Christian Taylor <dingo at chello.at>:
round(x, n) may unexpectedly round floats upwards to odd multiples of
10**(-n) if n is negative, depending on the system Python 3 is running
on. I think this is distinct from issue 1869.
Example:
>>> round(25.0, -1)
30.0
I used the following function to check 1000 cases for a given exponent
and yield the values where rounding to odd occurs:
def check(exponent):
factor = 10**exponent
for x in range(5, 5+20000, 20):
if not round(float(x*factor), -1-exponent) < x*factor:
yield float(x*factor)

packages of prerelease python packages

New submission from Rudd-O <rudd-o at rudd-o.com>:
Description of problem:
Building pre-release python distutils packages with python setup.py
bdist_rpm
works, but the version number is "RPM-higher" than the official release
package
that is released later.
This constitutes a problem because many of the components in major
Python apps
like Zope -- distributed as cheese shop eggs and downloadable via pip or
buildout -- are pre-release packages which, when turned into RPMs, contain
RPM-invalid version numbers. The RPMs build, but the pre-release
packages are
considered "newer" by yum, so you can imagine the havoc that breaks.
How reproducible:
always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. python setup.py bdist_rpm
2. inspect version / release number of resulting RPMs, find out it's wrong
3. do not profit!
Actual results:
distutils package version: 1.4a
rpm package version: 1.4a
Expected results:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/NamingGuidelines#Non-Numeric_Version_in_Release
Additional info:
patch attached. works against python 2.4, may apply fine to python 2.5
or 2.6
too since distutils hasn't undergone that big of a rewrite.
Ojo: the patch has been tested with distutils AND setuptools.

New submission from Thomas Guest <tag at wordaligned.org>:
http://docs.python.org/3.0/library/itertools.html says:
> The tools also work well with the high-speed functions in the operator
module. For example, the plus-operator can be mapped across two vectors
to form an efficient dot-product: sum(map(operator.add, vector1, vector2)).
I think there are two problems here.
1. I think this should read: "the multiplication operator ...
sum(map(operator.mul, vector1, vector2))."
2. This example has nothing to do with itertools! (At 3.n, map is a
built in function)

Subject: [New-bugs-announce] [issue5480] ".egg-info" => ".pkg-info"
In-Reply-To: <1236871625.96.0.687827007763.issue5480@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
Message-ID: <1236871625.96.0.687827007763.issue5480@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
New submission from Zooko O'Whielacronx <zooko at zooko.com>:
The .egg-info files which are produced by distutils in Python >= 2.5 are
the only standard, cross-platform way for a Python package
("distribution") to declare its name and version number in a
machine-parseable way. Unfortunately, these files are named ".egg-info"
even when the Python package in question was produced by distutils
without setuptools, was never packaged as an egg, and is not installed
as an egg. It has nothing to do with "egg". The fact that the file has
"egg" in its name causes most people to think that it has something to
do with eggs, which leads to all sorts of problems including people
removing the file and thus deleting the machine-parseable metadata about
the Python package's name and version number.
This ticket is a request that distutils start calling this file
".pkg-info" instead. Obviously we can't just stop including them under
the name ".egg-info" since that would break existing usage, but we could
start producing files under the name ".pkg-info", and make ".egg-info"
be a symlink or a copy of ".pkg-info" for backwards compatibility. Also
of course we can update the documentation (if there is any) of what the
.pkg-info file is. Since the current problems are mostly problems of
communication and documentation, this simple change to the name of the
file might go a long way to improving things.

it builds pure python modules as single packages that works

New submission from Rudd-O <rudd-o at rudd-o.com>:
Hello, guys. I am looking for feedback on the topic which I am going to
lay out. First, sys.path:
-------------------
# python2.4
>>> import sys
>>> sys.path
['', '/home/rudd-o', '/usr/lib64/python24.zip', '/usr/lib64/python2.4',
'/usr/lib64/python2.4/plat-linux2', '/usr/lib64/python2.4/lib-tk',
'/usr/lib64/python2.4/lib-dynload',
'/usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages',
'/usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/Numeric',
'/usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/PIL',
'/usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/gtk-2.0',
'/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages', '/usr/lib64/site-python',
'/usr/lib/site-python']
------------------
Now: Currently, bdist_rpm target builds RPMs that install to
/usr/lib(64)/python2.X/site-packages/. This is wasteful and inefficient
in the case of pure python modules for the following reasons:
1. It necessitates a rebuild of the python modules for at least 2
architectures -- 64-bit and 32-bit, since they go to different
directories. Worst part is, the packages themselves are
indistinguishable by name (they are built as Noarch in all
architectures) so a package built in 64bit cannot function in 32bit BUT
it is *installable* by RPM.
2. It necessitates a rebuild for every python minor version out there,
2.4, 2.5, 2.6. This is also problematic because packages need to be
rebuilt for every distribution release out there, instead of being able
to build a single RPM that works across distro releases (or, the holy
grail, across distros altogether).
Now, I have familiarized myself with distutils enough that I can make a
quick patch that
- detects if the package is a pure python module
- ensures that the install-purelib directive in the [install] section of
setup.cfg is absent
and if both conditions are present, then the package is automatically
installed into /usr/lib/site-python.
The benefits are clear:
- only a single RPM needs to be built across distro versions and
architectures
- it enables cheese shop packages to be quickly built on a machine and
then installed in another
- it eliminates the need for the tedious process of writing custom spec
files
- packages built this way can be loaded and run by virtually all 2.x
python interpreters out there right now
- it would be possible to even build python RPMs that work across
distributions
This patch is no more than a two-liner, and I am looking for input, to
see if someone agrees, or not, to flesh out any pitfalls before going
in. So do your best and provide sensible reasons why I should not do
this, or else I will do it and submit a patch.
Clock's ticking.

New submission from Zhigang Wang <w1z2g3 at gmail.com>:
shelf without writeback=True is too slow, while shelves with
writeback=True takes too much time to close. And even worse, these codes
can not run:
$ cat test_shelve.py
#!/usr/bin/env python
import shelve
store = shelve.open("/tmp/shelve.db", writeback=True)
class Test(object):
pass
def main():
store["a"] = Test()
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
$ python test_shelve.py
Exception cPickle.PicklingError: "Can't pickle <class '__main__.Test'>:
it's not the same object as __main__.Test" in ignored
With this module, we can make it to run.
I think it's worth add this function to shelve. We can achieve great
improvement with some avoidable limitations.
The other approach to add this function is to add a extra option the
shelve.open(). We can discuss for which is better.

Lacking unit tests for this (documented) functionality makes it harder
for alternate Python runtimes to correctly provide it. Plus, if it's
not tested, it might not work.
I tried to write tests for the feature since I recently used it and
thought it would be pretty straightforward. However, I failed. expat
inscrutably refuses to call the external entity ref handler I provided
in my test. Attached is my attempted, in case anyone feels like helping
complete it.

New submission from Ezio Melotti <ezio.melotti at gmail.com>:
The doc [1] actually says:
object.__nonzero__(self)
Called to implement truth value testing, and the built-in operation
bool(); should return False or True, or their integer equivalents 0 or
1. When this method is not defined, __len__() is called, if it is
defined (see below). If a class defines neither __len__() nor
__nonzero__(), all its instances are considered true.
I suggest to:
1) drop the comma after 'testing';
2) clarify what happens when __nonzero__ is defined and where 'below'
actually is (and possibly add a link).

New submission from Ger Luijten <gcjm.luijten at gmail.com>:
Hello developers,
While running 'make test' for Python 3.1a1 there was an error reported,
obviously a permission problem, but when trying to run the reported
server.py script in verbose mode it turned up an error in the
regrtest.py script.
Manually running the server.py script seems to go fine.
See my installation notes below.
Commands were issued with and without sudo in a terminal under fully
updated Kubuntu 8.10 and with no installation problems for Python 3.1a1.
Also I noticed Issue 4951 failure in test_httpserver under Windows, but
with a different kind of error message.
Greetings, Ger
$ sudo make test
Errors: 1 error reported; no idea what the script server.py is trying to
access for which it says to have no rights.
This error was listed 3 times:
test_httpservers
Traceback (most recent call last):
File
"/home/ger/Systeembeheer/Python/Python_Packages/Python-3.1a1/Lib/http/server.py",
line 1031, in run_cgi
OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied
test test_httpservers failed -- errors occurred; run in verbose mode for
details
See the readme file for the Python installation on how to run the script
in verbose mode:
General: $ ./python Lib/test/regrtest.py -v test_whatever
So go to the folder Python-3.1a1/Lib/test/
Run testscript in verbose mode: $ sudo ./regrtest.py -v server.py
No idea if this regrtest.py script knows the path to server.py,
otherwise add the correct path later in testing.
This shows a programming error in the regrtest.py script, so a run of
server.py is not possible with this script:
File "./regrtest.py", line 185
print(msg, file=sys.stderr)
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
So let's run the server.py script directly to see if this script crashes
or not.
When directly running the server.py script with and without sudo it runs
with no errors, until broken off by Ctrl+C.
The script seems to run or simulate a small webserver for tests.

I hope attached patch will fix this. openssl's Configure seems to take

<empty/> tags?

Message-ID: <1237288775.97.0.464945533476.issue5498@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
New submission from once-off <once-off at mailinator.com>:
The attached script (sgml_error.py) was designed to output XML files
unchanged, other than expanding <empty/> tags into an opening and
closing tag, such as <empty></empty>.
It seems the SGMLParser class recognizes an empty tag, but does not emit
the closing tag until the NEXT forward slash it sees. So everything from
the forward slash in <empty/> (even the closing angle bracket) until the
next forward slash is considered to be textual data. See the following
line output.
Have I missed something here (like a conscious design limitation on the
class, an error on my part, etc), or is this really a bug with the class?

To avoid byte/character mixture, getarg('c') must only accept a byte
string of 1 byte and getarg('C') only an unicode string of 1
character.
Impacted methods:
- datetime.datetime.isoformat(sep), array.array(type, data): don't
accept byte anymore
- msvcrt.putch(char), msvcrt.ungetch(char), <mmap
object>.write_byte(char): don't accept unicode anymore
I tried runtests.sh: only the 3 bytes.{center,ljust,rjust} tests have
to be changed, all other tests are ok.

New submission from Elijah Merkin <elm at transas.com>:
Tested on Python 2.5.4.
1. Use tarfile.open("fname", "w|gz") to create an archive.
2. Add a file using TarFile.add(name, arcname=None, recursive=True,
exclude=None) by specifying 2 params: absolute path to a source file as
'name' and something containing one or more directories, e.g.
'test/myfile.txt' as 'arcname'.
3. Close the archive.
On Linux file is added as 'test/myfile.txt'. On Windows the full path
specified as 'name' is used (e.g. 'D:\\MyDir\\myfile.txt'). When I use
'w|bz2' everything works correctly.
Probably this bug is somewhat similar to a bug #4750, though it happens
under Windows and doesn't happen under Linux.

TextIOWrapper.readline() is much faster (eg. 72 ms vs 95 ms) than
BufferedReader.readline(). It's because BufferedReader always acquires
the file lock, whereas TextIOWrapper only acquires the file lock when
the buffer is empty.
I would like a BufferedReader.readline() as fast as
TextIOWrapper.readline(), or faster!
Why BufferedReader's attributes are protected by a lock whereas
TextIOWrapper's attributes are not?
Does it mean that TextIOWrapper may crash if two threads calls
readline() (or different methods) at the "same time"?
How does Python 2.x and 3.0 fix this issue?

New submission from Adam Goode <adam at spicenitz.org>:
On Fedora systems, it is invalid to mmap something with PROT_WRITE and
PROT_EXEC. libffi has been updated to support this, but ctypes has not
been updated to use this new functionality.
Attached is a patch which currently only works if system libffi is used.
Though the embedded version of libffi is new enough, it is missing the
allocation and free functions. I know how I would update the ctypes
libffi/ directory (add the alloc/free files), but not sure about the
other libffi directories (darwin, arm_wince, msvc, osx). I suppose those
would all need to be upgraded, or perhaps even made to use the standard
libffi instead of special forks of it.
Note that this also eliminates the malloc_closure code.

Platform: Windows Vista x64
Python version: 3.0.1 x64
When I use sys.stdin.readlines(), it correctly ends when I enter ^Z
(ctrl-Z) on the console (this is the EOF on the console). However when
I call sys.stdin.read(), it doesn't end when ^Z is entered. It ends
when I enter the second ^Z.
Repro steps:
1. Open python.
2. Type:
import sys
sys.stdin.read()
3. Type:
Hello
^Z
4. Note the above ^Z should be followed by a Return.
Result:
The function call doesn't end. If I enter another ^Z, it ends.
Expected result:
The function call ends.

New submission from ganges master <gangesmaster at users.sourceforge.net>:
this is similar to bug #5370, but this for is a different reason. also,
i have seen several sites on google that mention it, so it has happened
to quite a few people.
the bug is that when calling dir() on a object, it looks for __members__
and __methods__, which might not exist, thus invoking __getattr__ (if it
exists).
if __getattr__ fails, say, due to a never ending recusion, the exception
is silently swallowed. this was the behavior in py2.5. since 2.6, it
emits a warning (that looks like PyErr_WriteUnraisable) with the
strangest message:
Exception RuntimeError: 'maximum recursion depth exceeded in
__subclasscheck__' in <type 'exceptions.AttributeError'> ignored
this is very confusing. either dir() raises this exception, or silently
ignore it, but displaying this message is only confusing.
i haven't been able to detect why this happens:
* the source of this exception, merge_list_attr, calls PyErr_Clear
* nobody seems to call PyErr_WriteUnraisable
here's a snippet:
class Foo(object):
def __getattr__(self, name):

New submission from Ramsey Dow <yesmar at speakeasy.net>:
I couldn't install setuptools (required by gitosis) because Python 2.6.1
didn't install socket when I built it. A little digging and I
uncommented the "_socket socketmodule.c" line in Modules/Setup.
Unfortunately, the Bluetooth socket stuff in Modules/socketmodule.c was
broken under NetBSD. I made this patch and tested on NetBSD 4.0.1.
When researching this bug on bugs.python.org, I noticed issue5400 which,
in order to get Modules/socketmodule.c compiling, disabled Bluetooth
socket support entirely. That isn't necessary. I just had to ensure the
various structure references made use of the proper member names
(according to NetBSD's /usr/include/netbt/bluetooth.h header file). The
changes I made were similar, though not precisely the same, as those for
FreeBSD.
After patching and building:
ramsey at wizard /opt/build/runtime/Python-2.6.1$ ./python -bb -E
Lib/test/regrtest.py test_socket
test_socket
1 test OK.

New submission from Mark Dickinson <dickinsm at gmail.com>:
Here's a patch that streamlines the x_divrem function in
Objects/longobject.c. More benchmarks are needed, but the initial
results are promising: for py3k, on a 32-bit machine with 15-bit
digits, Victor's pidigits benchmark runs almost twice as fast with this
patch (numbers below).
Patch details
=============
- Normalize inputs by shifting instead of multiplying and dividing.
This halves the number of divisions used in the algorithm.
- Streamline innermost loop.
- Save an iteration of outer loop around half the time.
- Save an object allocation: only 3 allocations per x_divrem call
instead of 4.
- Remove special case where initial quotient estimate is >= PyLong_BASE.
There's no need for this, since the 'digit' type holds values up
to 2*PyLong_BASE - 1.
- Make q type digit instead of type twodigits: this halves the size
of the multiplication in the innermost loop.
Benchmark results
=================
Using the pidigits_bestof.py script that's posted in the issue 4258
discussion, on a non-debug build of py3k (r70465), on OS X 10.5.6/Core 2
Duo:

Macintosh-3:py3k dickinsm$ ./python.exe ../pidigits_bestof.py 2000

So the patch gives a speedup of around 90%. This particular benchmark
is heavy on the divisions though, so I'd expect lesser speedups for
other benchmarks.

Subject: [New-bugs-announce] [issue5513] "What's New" should say VERY
CLEARLY that the type file is gone
In-Reply-To: <1237415177.76.0.586178129986.issue5513@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
Message-ID: <1237415177.76.0.586178129986.issue5513@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
New submission from Mitchell Model <mlm at acm.org>:
MAIN POINT
The Python 3 "What's New" should SCREAM that the type file is gone, not
just that people should use the function open() to open files, since
that has been a recommendation for quite a while.
EXPLANATION
In multiple readings of the Python 3 "What's New" I blew right past the
"Removed file. Use open().", since I've been using open() instead of
file() for a long time. I didn't notice that unlike the preceding
several lines, there were no parentheses after "file" and that this line
was literally saying there was no longer a type called "file".
OBSERVATIONS
(1) If the line is meant to say that you can no longer call file() as a
function -- which would be strange if it were still a type -- then it is
missing its parentheses.
(2) If the line is meant to say that there is no longer a file type, as
it apparently means to say since in fact -- and to my great surprise --
there really IS no type called "file" in Python 3 (I discovered that
doing a dir(file) to check whether file provided method function I
thought it did instead of taking the time to look it up.) then there is
a grammatical problem with the line since a (n old) type shouldn't be
equated to a function call.
(3) I predict that anyone who has more than a passing acquaintance with
Python 2 will be similarly shocked when they find out that what they get
back from open() is a _io.TextIOWrapper (and, by the way, that they have
to import _io or at least _io.TextIOWrapper to be able to do a dir on
it). Likewise for help(file) and help(_io.TextIOWrapper). There should
be a very prominent statement that as part of the reimplementation of
the io system, the type file has been replaced by _io.TextIOWrapper.
RECOMMENDATION
The line
"Removed file. Use open()."
should be replaced with:
"The type file has been removed; use open() to open a file."
or possibly:
"The type file has been replaced by _ioTextIOWrapper; use open() to
open a file; open returns an instance of _ioTextIOWrapper."

handles leading zero padding poorly
In-Reply-To: <1237422838.11.0.502789865949.issue5515@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
Message-ID: <1237422838.11.0.502789865949.issue5515@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
New submission from Eric Smith <eric at trueblade.com>:
I think the way leading zero padding is handled for int and float by
format's 'n' code is a bug.
>>> import locale
>>> locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, 'en_US.UTF8')
'en_US.UTF8'
>>> format(12345, '010n')
'000012,345'
>>> format(12345, '09n')
'00012,345'
>>> format(12345, '08n')
'0012,345'
>>> format(12345, '07n')
'012,345'
>>> format(12345, '06n')
'12,345'
When 'n' support was added to Decimal, leading zeros had commas in them:
>>> from decimal import Decimal
>>> format(Decimal(12345), '010n')
'00,012,345'
>>> format(Decimal(12345), '09n')
'0,012,345'
>>> format(Decimal(12345), '08n')
'0,012,345'
>>> format(Decimal(12345), '07n')
'012,345'
>>> format(Decimal(12345), '06n')
'12,345'
Decimal also has the same support for PEP 378's ',' modifier:
>>> format(Decimal(12345), '010,')
'00,012,345'
>>> format(Decimal(12345), '09,')
'0,012,345'
>>> format(Decimal(12345), '08,')
'0,012,345'
>>> format(Decimal(12345), '07,')
'012,345'
>>> format(Decimal(12345), '06,')
'12,345'
>>>
As I'm implementing PEP 378 for int and float, I'm going to make it work
the same way that Decimal works. For consistency, and because I think
the current behavior is not useful, I'd like to change float and int
formatting with 'n' to match Decimal and PEP 378 for the ',' modifier.
Since I consider this a bug, I'd like to consider backporting it to 2.6
and 3.0, if the changes aren't too intrusive.

While the datetime.date and datetime.datetime classes consistently
handle mixed-type comparison, their subclasses do not:
>>> from datetime import date, datetime, time
>>> d = date.today()
>>> dt = datetime.combine(d, time())
>>> d == dt
False
>>> dt == d
False
>>> class D(date):
... pass
...
>>> class DT(datetime):
... pass
...
>>> d = D.today()

True

False
I think this is due to the premature "optimization" of using memcmp() in
date_richcompare().

The following example is valid in Python 2.6:
a = 'abc'
b = buffer(a)
print([repr(c) for c in b])
After 2to3 it, the 'buffer' isn't changed to memoryview, so then it is
not valid program in Python 3:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "bufferobj3.py", line 2, in <module>
b = buffer(a)
NameError: name 'buffer' is not defined
However even it changed to memoryview the program still not valid because:
>>> memoryview('a')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: cannot make memory view because object does not have the
buffer interface
I can reporduce this on both Python 3.0.1 and Python 3.1a1+ (py3k:70310).

The documentation states that the output of pickle and cPickle may be
different. However it is implied that the output of a particular module
will always be consistent within itself. This expectation fails for the
case below.
I am using the output of cPickle in order to generate a key to use for
external storage where the key is abstracted to a generic Python
(immutable) object. Without consistency this breaks for me; pickle is
too slow so I need to use cPickle.

Expected results: the output of the two dumps calls should be the same.

The second sentence of the re module documentation -- " The re module is

modules are not always available? Do other "always available" modules say
that they are always available?
Also, the reference to kodos should probably be removed. It hasn't been
updated since 2006, and it doesn't work with PyQT4.

I've broken out this refactoring from some of the other datetime stuff
I'm doing. The patch needn't be applied until the other issues that
depend on it are.

On the page lib/http-redirect-handler.html it says the signature of

It is actually:
redirect_request(req, fp, code, msg, hdrs, newurl)
Well, technically the signature is:
redirect_request(self, req, fp, code, msg, hdrs, newurl)
but it is called as the six-argument version.

New submission from STINNER Victor <victor.stinner at haypocalc.com>:
In "What?s New In Python 3.0" document, I can read "Removed
execfile(). Instead of execfile(fn) use exec(open(fn).read())". The
new syntax has two problems:
- if the file is not encoding in UTF-8, we get an unicode error. Eg.
see issue #4282
- exec() doesn't support newline different than \n, see issue #4628
We need a short function which opens the Python file with the right
encoding. Get Python file encoding and open it with the right encoding
is a command pattern.
Attached patch proposes a function open_script() to open a Python
script with the correct encoding. Using it, execfile() can be replaced
by exec(open_script(fn).read()) which doesn't have to two binary file
problems.

I'm running Python 2.5.2 under Ubuntu 8.10.
In the file email/generator.py from the core library at line 228 in the
function _handle_multipart()
# delimiter transport-padding CRLF
print >> self._fp, '\n--' + boundary
but if this function is run under Unix it print only the LF and not the
CRLF as by required by the standard.
My guess is that this error is also in other part of the library.
SMTP (as HTTP) requires CRLF as new line, by standard, while I see that
at the beginning of the generator.py
NL = '\n'
Am I missing something?

In python 3.0 and 3.1, attempting to access a local variable from within
a list comprehension in a string passed to eval() causes a NameError.
Doesn't seem to be a problem in python 2.6
I have attempted to run the attached test cases (test_eval_comp.py)
using the following builds of python:

All tests passed with Python 2.6.1. The following five tests failed
with Python 3.0.1 and 3.1a1

Hello,
The attached test case, which uses multiprocessing module to run Tkinter
GUI process, runs flawlessly under Solaris but hung under Linux (CentOS5).
The test case is a trimmed version of much larger program but it still
exhibits the same problem.
I got a suggestion to use a function rather than a method of a class.
But it didn't make any difference.
I may have overlooked something but as far as I review my code, I
couldn't find anything that explains why the test case won't work (In
fact, it works under Solaris).

I have recently installed python 2.6 and I have been successfully able

However, when I try to launch the IDLE, all I get is a window that

following command:

I get the following error:

One other note is that I do not have adminstrator priviledges on this

PEP 8 CapWords convention
In-Reply-To: <1237611761.05.0.556904304127.issue5530@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
Message-ID: <1237611761.05.0.556904304127.issue5530@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
New submission from Jess Austin <jess.austin at gmail.com>:
Class names that comply with the CapWords naming convention described in
PEP 8 (http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/) are preferred. See the
recent discussion that included the BDFL's recommendations at
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2009-March/086684.html.
Per those recommendations, the attached patch updates every class to
expose a CapWords name to python:
datetime.timedelta --> datetime.TimeDelta
datetime.date --> datetime.Date
datetime.tzinfo --> datetime.TZInfo
datetime.time --> datetime.Time
datetime.datetime --> datetime.DateTime
In addition, the old lowercase names are reproduced as derived classes,
the methods of which throw PendingDeprecationWarning, and the docstrings
of which advise using the new CapWords class names. The test_datetime.py
unit test is updated to check for proper functionality and for the
presence of the pending deprecation warnings. (This patch relies on the
previously-submitted refactoring patch attached to Issue 5520,
http://bugs.python.org/issue5520.) Various other tests and support files
are updated to use the new CapWords class names.
The current patch still fails one test in test_datetime.py, due to
previously-existing Issue 5516, http://bugs.python.org/issue5516.
This patch includes no documentation updates.

New submission from Tim Cuthbertson <tim3d.junk at gmail.com>:
This patch adds the behaviour that when a unittest.failureException is
thrown in a TestCase's tearDown method, the test case is added to the
failures list (instead of the errors list, and only when the test case
body has passed successfully).
In some circumstances, tests may want to assert that something happens
at some point during the body of a test, and the best time to make these
checks can be in the tearDown method.
This is a modification I've made during development of my mocktest
library (https://github.com/gfxmonk/mocktest/tree), and I believe it is
beneficial to have as the default unittest behaviour.

The recipe for "unique_justseen" listed on:

uses "imap", which is not available in Python 3.0.
I fixed it by changing "imap" to just "map", and I also changing
"itemgetter" to "operator.itemgetter" to make the namespace usage
clearer in the recipe:
Python 3.0.1 (r301:69561, Feb 13 2009, 20:04:18) [MSC v.1500 32 bit

Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from itertools import *
>>> import operator
>>> def unique_justseen(iterable, key=None):
... "List unique elements, preserving order. Remember only the
element just
seen."
... # unique_justseen('AAAABBBCCDAABBB') --> A B C D A B
... # unique_justseen('ABBCcAD', str.lower) --> A B C A D
... return map(next, map(operator.itemgetter(1), groupby(iterable,

New submission from Pierre Hanser <hanser at club-internet.fr>:
The json module provides an encoder python -> json.
The encoding may be specialized by the user, using
the cls parameter of the dumps function.
But all simple types are always handled by the library encoder,
the user encoder is only used as a last resort one, for unknown types.
This is not described nor intuitive, and it prevents specifying a custom
encoder for classes which inherit from simple type.
in the provided example (thanks Raymond) a user defined boolean
type, inheriting from int, is handled as int where you would prefer
it to be handled as a json boolean through a custom encoder.
problem seen on simplejson-2.0.9 or official python 2.6.1

Subject: [New-bugs-announce] [issue5536] urllib: urlretrieve() does not
close file objects on failure
In-Reply-To: <1237724935.59.0.818776278278.issue5536@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
Message-ID: <1237724935.59.0.818776278278.issue5536@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
New submission from Petr Dolezal <petr.dolezal at matfyz.cz>:
urllib.request.urlretrieve() does not close the file object created for
the retrieval when it fails during processing of the incoming data and
raises an exception (e.g. on HTTP 404 response). Therefore the file
remains opened until the process terminates and the OS itself closes the
orphaned file handle.
This behaviour may result in orphaned temporary/incomplete files. It is
also not just a resource leak, but it has another bad side effect on
Windows platform (at least): the file can't be deleted (due to the used
creation mode) before the handle is closed. But the entire file object,
including the handle, is lost due to the exception, thus nobody
(including the process itself) is able to delete the file until the
process terminates.
Consider this code snippet demonstrating the described behaviour:
import os
import urllib.request
FILENAME = 'nonexistent.html'
try:
# The host must be valid, else the address resolving fails
# before the target file is even created. But existing host
# and non-existent resource is exactly what's the problem.
NON_EXISTENT_URL = 'http://www.python.org/nonexistent.html'
urllib.request.urlretrieve(NON_EXISTENT_URL, FILENAME)
except Exception:
if os.path.exists(FILENAME):
print('File exists! Attempting to delete.')
os.unlink(FILENAME)
print('Succeeded.')
On Windows, following output appears:
File exists! Attempting to delete.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "test.py", line 6, in <module>
urllib.request.urlretrieve(NON_EXISTENT_URL, FILENAME)
File "C:\Program Files\Python\lib\urllib\request.py", line 134, in
urlretrieve
return _urlopener.retrieve(url, filename, reporthook, data)
File "C:\Program Files\Python\lib\urllib\request.py", line 1502, in
retrieve
block = fp.read(bs)
File "C:\Program Files\Python\lib\io.py", line 572, in read
self._checkClosed()
File "C:\Program Files\Python\lib\io.py", line 450, in _checkClosed
if msg is None else msg)
ValueError: I/O operation on closed file.
During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "test.py", line 10, in <module>
os.unlink(FILENAME)
WindowsError: [Error 32] The process cannot access the file because it
is being used by another process: 'nonexistent.html'
As a quick fix it is possible to ensure closing both source and target
file objects in finally blocks. I also assume the function should delete
the target file on an exception: the file is not only incomplete, but
its name is also unknown to the client code in the case of the temporary
file made by urlretrieve() itself. If the client code is interested in
partial downloads, I guess it should take another way to retrieve the
resource as urlretrieve() interface doesn't look like supporting
something like partial download.
Anyway, the proposed solution is still not the optimal one: ValueError
with message "I/O operation on closed handle" is really nothing I would
expect as a valid error when downloading a non-existent web page. I
guess a check on the source file object before reading begins would
discover the problem early and raise more appropriate IOError or
something like that.
Note:
This bug report probably applies to older versions of urllib, but I
can't verify it now. I know at least I spotted it in 2.6 just before I
upgraded to 3.0.1.

Message-ID: <1237744231.54.0.279066174651.issue5537@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
New submission from Chris Hollenbeck <chris.hollenbeck at gmail.com>:
The LWPCookieJar can be saved on 64-bit Ubuntu, but not on 32-bit Ubuntu
when the expiration year is greater than 2038. This has not been tested
on any other Intel-compatible Linux platform, though it appears related
to the Year 2038 bug. The MozillaCookieJar does not have a problem
saving on either architecture.
A sample crash is shown below:
File "/home/user/xblstatus/LiveConnect.py", line 189, in connect
self.cookiejar.save(self.cookieFile)
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/_LWPCookieJar.py", line 89, in save
f.write(self.as_lwp_str(ignore_discard, ignore_expires))
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/_LWPCookieJar.py", line 75, in as_lwp_str
r.append("Set-Cookie3: %s" % lwp_cookie_str(cookie))
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/_LWPCookieJar.py", line 35, in lwp_cookie_str
time2isoz(float(cookie.expires))))
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/cookielib.py", line 98, in time2isoz
year, mon, mday, hour, min, sec = time.gmtime(t)[:6]
ValueError: timestamp out of range for platform time_t
---
The cookie jar and urllib2 integration was done with:
self.cookiejar = cookielib.LWPCookieJar()
self.opener =
urllib2.build_opener(urllib2.HTTPCookieProcessor(self.cookiejar))
urllib2.install_opener(self.opener)
---
The code used to save the cookie after accessing the web page was:
self.cookiejar.save(self.cookieFile)
The cookieFile variable is simply the default location of the cookie
file for saving in the program.

New submission from Garrett Cooper <yanegomi at gmail.com>:
While trying to deal with some annoying issues with setting up and
tearing down consoles via pexpect, I noticed that the teardown functions
/ methods weren't being executed via nose.
After applying this change to 2.4.5 and 2.6.1, things work as expected
(note: this patch only applies cleanly with 2.4.5 AFAICT -- it didn't
work with 2.6.1).
My expectations are:
========
I'd expect that the best fix would be for tearDown to be unconditionally
called if setUp is called, s.t. testers can ensure that the operating
state of the UUT and testbed are at a predefined state.
So in my testcase provided, I would expect the following flow:
1. Keeping assert False in setup_module...
`Calling setup_module'
<assert fails>
`Calling teardown_module'
2. Removing assert False from setup_module...
`Calling setup_module'
- `Calling function_setup'
<assert fails>
- `Calling function_teardown'
- `Calling TestClass:setUp'
<assert fails>
- `Calling TestClass:tearDown'
`Calling teardown_module'
If this isn't done, it makes some operations, like tearing down consoles
with pexpect _extremely_ painful to perform...
========

How do you know? AFAIK, the return value of open() is completely
undocumented:
http://docs.python.org/3.0/library/functions.html#open
And if you open the file in text mode, the return value isn't a
BufferedIOBase.

The return value of open() is a "stream", according to

New submission from Lukas Lueg <knabberknusperhaus at yahoo.de>:
The file pointer's behaviour after opening a file in 'a+b' mode is not
consistent among platforms: The pointer is set to the beginning of the
file on Linux and to the end of the file on MacOS. You have to call
.seek(0) before calling .read() to get consistent behaviour on all
platforms.
While this is not a serious problem, it somewhat violates the rule of
least surprise. Also we are not bound to this behaviour and can make
sure that all file objects have their respective positions well-defined
after object-creation.
Thoughts?

New submission from Jason Davies <jason at jasondavies.com>:
I came across this bug when trying to use CouchDB-Python to PUT an
attachment using HTTP authentication (using the httplib2 library).
Essentially what httplib2 does is this:
1. Attempt PUT with no auth credentials
2. If a 401 response is received, try again with credentials
However, CouchDB sends a 401 response as soon as it has consumed the
request headers, and before the request body has been fully sent by the
client.
This triggers a bug in both httplib and httplib2, whereby they raise
exceptions due to a broken pipe being encountered when trying to finish
sending the request body.
It seems that Python's httplib checks for broken pipe errors and closes
the connection entirely when they occur when making a request. This is
unhelpful if a legitimate response was sent and the socket was closed
early by the server.
The offending try/except handler is in httplib.HttpConnection.send and
has a comment saying:
# send the data to the server. if we get a broken pipe, then close
# the socket. we want to reconnect when somebody tries to send again.
This is wrong, as someone might want to read the response before closing
the socket.
For reference, the CouchDB-Python issue is:
http://code.google.com/p/couchdb-python/issues/detail?id=68
This bug may also be related to: http://bugs.python.org/issue3566

New submission from cocobear <cocobear.cn at gmail.com>:
take a look at following code:
<code>
import urllib2
headers = [("Content-Type","application/oct-stream"),]
opener = urllib2.build_opener()
opener.addheaders = headers
urllib2.install_opener(opener)
print "after install_opener"
ret = opener.open('http://www.google.com',data="word=ss")
print ret.read()
</code>
I got real send data by wireshark?
POST / HTTP/1.1
Accept-Encoding: identity
Content-Length: 7
Host: www.dict.cn
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Connection: close
word=ss
I had already set HTTP header of Content-Type, but actally urllib2
change this header.
I got this piece of code from urllib2.py:
if request.has_data(): # POST
data = request.get_data()
if not request.has_header('Content-type'):
request.add_unredirected_header(
'Content-type',
'application/x-www-form-urlencoded')
if not request.has_header('Content-length'):
request.add_unredirected_header(
'Content-length', '%d' % len(data))
scheme, sel = splittype(request.get_selector())
sel_host, sel_path = splithost(sel)
if not request.has_header('Host'):
request.add_unredirected_header('Host', sel_host or host)
for name, value in self.parent.addheaders:
name = name.capitalize()
if not request.has_header(name):
request.add_unredirected_header(name, value)
first,urllib2 will add Content-Type if it's POST method, then it try to
add headers which holded by opener, but there's already 'Content-Type',
so the attribute->addheaders of opener will not append.
I can use Request to add 'Content-Type' header?
request = urllib2.Request(url,headers=headers,data=body)
The example code that I wrote doesn't correct? or it's a problem of urllib2?

New submission from Daniel Stutzbach <daniel at stutzbachenterprises.com>:
Below is the relevant snippet from pyport.h. There are two reasons that
Py_LOCAL_INLINE doesn't actually emit the "inline" keyword (unless
compiling with MSC).
First, "configure" does not have code to test the compiler and define
USE_INLINE if appropriate.
Second, the code undefines USE_INLINE even if defined! (oops? ;) )
The snippet is replicated with slightly different names near the top of
_sre.c.
#undef USE_INLINE /* XXX - set via configure? */
#if defined(_MSC_VER)
#if defined(PY_LOCAL_AGGRESSIVE)
/* enable more aggressive optimization for visual studio */
#pragma optimize("agtw", on)
#endif
/* ignore warnings if the compiler decides not to inline a function */
#pragma warning(disable: 4710)
/* fastest possible local call under MSVC */
#define Py_LOCAL(type) static type __fastcall
#define Py_LOCAL_INLINE(type) static __inline type __fastcall
#elif defined(USE_INLINE)
#define Py_LOCAL(type) static type
#define Py_LOCAL_INLINE(type) static inline type
#else
#define Py_LOCAL(type) static type

Message-ID: <1237917675.54.0.817122476849.issue5555@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
New submission from Aaron Sherman <ajs at ajs.com>:
First off, I want to be clear that this isn't a request for changes to
functionality, nor for debate over decisions which have already been
made. This is purely a request for correction to mis-statements about
the nature and origins of optparse's handling in its documentation.
This is an edited-down excerpt form the optparse documentation from:
http://docs.python.org/library/optparse.html
"... the traditional Unix syntax is a hyphen (?-?) followed by a single
letter [...] Some other option syntaxes that the world has seen include:
* a hyphen followed by a few letters, e.g. "-pf" [...]
[...] These option syntaxes are not supported by optparse, and they
never will be. This is deliberate: the first three are non-standard on
any environment[...]"
While, obviously, optparse is free to choose whatever model of option
parsing the developers like, the above text should be removed or
corrected. Traditional Unix command-line usage is detailed in the POSIX
specification's definition of various utilities and the optparse C
function as documented here:
http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/getopt.html
which lays out this example:
"This code accepts any of the following as equivalent:
cmd -ao arg path path
cmd -a -o arg path path"
Note that the concatenation of single-character arguments is, in fact,
in conformance to the POSIX standard, GNU coding conventions, and Unix
best-practices since at least the mid-1980s. This clearly contradicts
the statement from Python's documentation. For further reference, see:
any Unix or Unix-like system's "man 3 getopt"
http://www.faqs.org/docs/artu/ch10s05.html
http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/standards.html#Command_002dLine-Interfaces
(which refers back to the "POSIX guidelines for the command-line options
of a program")
any Unix or Unix-like system's man pages for a plethora of core
utilities such as rm(1), ls(1), sh(1), cp(1), etc.
A more accurate statement would be:
"optparse has chosen to implement a subset of the GNU coding standard's
command line interface guidelines, allowing for both long and short
options, but not the POSIX-style concatenation of short options."
A rationale for that decision may or may not be included, but I won't
presume to write it since I'm not actually privy to that decision-making
process.

A few hours ago I sent a comment to the issue #4626. I didn't notice the
issue was closed. So I repeat it here. I'm interested in comments
because I have the feeling it is still a pending annoying isssue.
---
I'm glad to have discovered this topic. I bumped into something similar
when I toyed with an interactive interpreter.
from code import InteractiveInterpreter
ii = InteractiveInterpreter()
source = ...
ii.runsource(source)
What should be the encoding and/or the type (str, bytes) of the "source"
string? Taking into account the encoding of the script which contains
this code, I have the feeling there is always something going wrong,
this can be a "non ascii" char in the source (encoded in utf-8!) or the
interactive interpreter does not accept very well a byte string
representing a utf-8 encoded string.
IDLE is not suffering from this. Its interactive interpreter is somehow
receiving "ucs-2 ready string" from tkinter.
I'm a little bit confused here (win2k, winXP sp2, Python 3.0.1).

Message-ID: <1237924124.82.0.478709056921.issue5557@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
New submission from Tom Goddard <goddard at cgl.ucsf.edu>:
Bytecode compiling large Python files uses an unexpectedly large amount
of memory. For example, compiling a file containing a list of 5 million
integers uses about 2 Gbytes of memory while the Python file size is
about 40 Mbytes. The memory used is 50 times the file size. The
resulting list in Python consumes about 400 Mbytes of memory, so
compiling the byte codes uses about 5 times the memory of the list
object. Can the byte-code compilation can be made more memory efficient?
The application that creates simlilarly large Python files is a
molecular graphics program called UCSF Chimera that my lab develops. It
writes session files which are Python code. Sessions of reasonable size
for Chimera for a given amount of physical memory cannot be
byte-compiled without thrashing, crippling the interactivity of all
software running on the machine.
Here is Python code to produce the test file test.py containing a list
of 5 million integers:
print >>open('test.py','w'), 'x = ', repr(range(5000000))
I tried importing the test.py file with Python 2.5, 2.6.1 and 3.0.1 on
Mac OS 10.5.6. In each case when the test.pyc file is not present the
python process as monitored by the unix "top" command took about 1.7 Gb
RSS and 2.2 Gb VSZ on a MacBook Pro which has 2 Gb of memory.

New submission from xdcdx <agentriot at gmail.com>:
The Python 3.0.1 Mac OS X installer image doesn't generate correct links
for Python3.0 binary interpreter on /usr/local/bin (as the ReadMe says
it will do). I'm using Mac Os X 10.5.6 (Darwin Kernel Version 9.6.0: Mon
Nov 24 17:37:00 PST 2008; root:xnu-1228.9.59~1/RELEASE_I386 i386).
Otherwise, Python 3.0 framework files seem to be correctly installed in
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.0/, and running the
interpreter from there works fine.
Additionally, Python 2.5 and 2.3 are installed on
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions, and linked from
/usr/bin/python. I'm not sure where did these come from, but I suspect
they were installed with Xcode 3.1.2.
Find the Python 3.0.1 install log attached (I tried to install it twice,
disregard the second time).
If you need more info, just ask.

New submission from Larry Hastings <larry at hastings.org>:
The documentation for platform.python_version_tuple() says:
"Returns the Python version as tuple (major, minor, patchlevel) of strings."
In 2.4 and 2.5 it correctly returned a tuple of strings. In 2.6 it
returns a tuple of ints.
In 2.4 and 2.5 the implementation was this:
return string.split(_sys_version()[0], '.')
In 2.6 it changed to this:
if hasattr(sys, 'version_info'):
return sys.version_info[:3]
return tuple(string.split(_sys_version()[1], '.'))
The fields used from sys.version_info are ints, and always have been. I
am mystified as to why the "if hasattr" lines were added; they broke it,
and it's not like that's superior information somehow.
I suggest modernizing it slightly when you fix the bug; use the .split()
method on strings. Like so:
return tuple(_sys_version()[1].split('.'))

New submission from Antoine Pitrou <pitrou at free.fr>:
Locale-based date formatting in py3k (using strftime) crashes when asked
to format a month name (or day, I assume) containing non-ASCII characters:
>>> import time
>>> import locale
>>> time.strftime("%B", (2009,2,1,0,0,0,0,0,0))
'February'
>>> locale.setlocale(locale.LC_TIME, "fr_FR")
'fr_FR'
>>> time.strftime("%B", (2009,2,1,0,0,0,0,0,0))
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode bytes in position 1-3:
invalid data
It works if I specify the encoding explicitly in the locale name so as
to coincide with the encoding specified in the error message above (but
that's assuming the given encoding-specific locale *is* installed):
>>> locale.setlocale(locale.LC_TIME, "fr_FR.UTF-8")
'fr_FR.UTF-8'
>>> time.strftime("%B", (2009,2,1,0,0,0,0,0,0))
'f?vrier'

The 2.6.1 documentation consists of a *single* line:
"distutils.command.bdist_msi ? Build a Microsoft Installer binary
package". The docs should explain briefly what an msi file is, and why a
packager might want to use it instead of wininst.

"destination" is ambiguous. It means opposite things, depending on if
it's the symlink creation operation or if it's the symlink itself.
In contrast, "old" is clearly what existed before the operation, and
"new" is what the operation creates. This terminology is already in use
by os.rename.

New submission from Philipp T?lke <toelke+pb at model.in.tum.de>:
While researching some strange logs from out firewall and narrowing it
down to a biff-like imap-client written in python we found the following:
To reproduce:
Start a network-sniffer like wireshark on the loopback-interface
In one shell start some network-listener:
$ nc -l -p 12345
In python, connect to it and send some data:
>>> s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
>>> s.connect(("127.0.0.1", 12345))
>>> s.send("Hallo\n");
6
The other shell now looks like:
$ nc -l -p 12345
Hallo
Type in anything and press <Enter> to send. Then quit the nc with C-c.
Then:
>>> s.close()
What I see here is the following:
The two messages are exchanged and nc sends his FIN-Package when
quitting. Python ACKnowledges this package (though intrestingly enough,
with a ack-number one to far (8 instead of 7 in my example)). At the
Moment of the s.close(), it sends another package, containing the same
ACK-Number, the same SEQ-Number(!) and this time the RST-Flag as well.
If I understand correctly, it sends RST, because not everything from the
connection was read by python. Why does it resend the ACK? Why is the
ACK-Number one to high? Why does it reuse the SEQ-Number?
And now to imaplib.IMAP4_SSL. The behavior here seems to me even more
strange:
If I invoke .logout(), the server sends his "BYE" message and after that
a FIN, which python ACKnowledges. At the moment, that the
IMAP4_SSL-object gets out of scope, a RST/ACK-Package is send, that
again re-ACKs the FIN and has the same sequence-number, that the ACK
package had!
Why does .logout() not send a FIN? Why does it not read the complete
Buffer, so that the Socket could close with FIN? And, why does it wait
until getting out of scope with sending this RST? (I assume, that is
when the Object is garbage-collected)
Thank you!

In 2.6 and 2.7 development document, PyLong_AsSsize_t is said "New in

there's only _PyLong_AsSsize_t(). You can check it here:

In 3.0 and 3.1 development document, PyLong_AsSsize_t is appeared twice,
there must be one duplicated. Check it here:

Message-ID: <1238082498.01.0.463671336038.issue5567@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
New submission from Marek Kubica <marek at xivilization.net>:
When calling operators from the ``operator``-module, they refuse to
accept keyword arguments:
operator.add(a=1, b=2)
TypeError: add() takes no keyword arguments
Operators with keyword arguments are important when one wants to create
partial functions with non-positional arguments.
Take for example ``operator.mod`` where the order of the arguments matters:
This works:
map(lambda x: x % 2, range(5))
This does not work, since ``operator.mod`` does not support keyword
arguments:
map(functools.partial(operator.mod, b=2), range(5))
So there are two solutions: define one's own add(), mod(), contains()
etc. but then the ``operator`` module is rather useless or make them
accept keyword arguments. With ``partial`` in the Stdlib this solution
would be a whole lot nicer.

New submission from Glyph Lefkowitz <glyph at divmod.com>:
c.f. this Twisted ticket: http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/3703
Twisted's test tool has an extended TestCase which uses the 'skip'
attribute, on both tests and methods, to determine whether to skip them.
You can see the implementation here:
http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/browser/trunk/twisted/trial/unittest.py?rev=26043#L655
The addition of the new 'skip' method in unittest.py therefore causes
trial, twisted's test tool, to unconditionally skip all tests.
I've set the priority to release blocker because I'd like it to be
determined whether this is really python's fault, or twisted's fault for
subclassing TestCase.
If the new 'skip' method of TestCase is renamed to something else, say
skipTest, this won't be a problem.
While I understand that this is technically a compatible change (the
addition of an attribute) I'd appreciate it if this changed on Python's
side of things, because leaving it up to Twisted means we need to go
through a deprecation cycle on a long-standing, stable public interface
that a lot of test code is using.

We have to use both poll() and recv() to determine whether or not the
connection was actually closed.
Better behavior might be returning True on poll() only if the next
recv() on that end of the pipe will work without an error. There may not
be a way to guarantee this, but it would be useful if the documentation
was clarified either way.

This patch adds SSL_ROOT, SQLITE_INC and SQLITE_LIB environment

Subject: [New-bugs-announce] [issue5576] Don't use PyLong_SHIFT with
_PyLong_AsScaledDouble()
In-Reply-To: <1238113402.96.0.541162373186.issue5576@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
Message-ID: <1238113402.96.0.541162373186.issue5576@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
New submission from STINNER Victor <victor.stinner at haypocalc.com>:
_PyLong_AsScaledDouble() writes the exponent in a int which have to be
multiplied by PyLong_SHIFT to give the power of 2. I proposed to
multiply the exponent by PyLong_SHIFT in _PyLong_AsScaledDouble() to
directly get the power of 2. It avoids complex code to test integer
overflow in code using _PyLong_AsScaledDouble() (the test is only done
once, in _PyLong_AsScaledDouble).
I also propose to change exponent type from "int*" to "unsigned int*".
Previous maximum exponent was INT_MAX//PyLong_SHIFT (eg. 143165576 for
PyLong using base 2^15). The new maximum is now
UINT_MAX//PyLong_SHIFT, the double ;-)
And since issue #4258 is commited (Use 30-bit digits instead of 15-bit
digits for Python integers), PyLong_SHIFT value may be different
depending on the compiler option. Using my patch, the long implement
will be a little bit more hidden.
The function _PyLong_AsScaledDouble() should be private because the
name starts with "_". But I see it in Include/longobject.h. In Python,
it's used in longobject.c and mathmodule.c.

Message-ID: <1238165659.22.0.188261777341.issue5579@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
New submission from Todd Weiler <tweiler at raggedcreek.com>:
Now that python has an ordered dictionary it would be great to have a
display sytax for creating them.
To create a dict I just use the dict display syntax:
newdict = {'fred':'flintstone', 'barney':'rubble', 'dino':'thedinosaur'}
I'd like to be able to create an OrderedDict in the same way - I realize
that a list of tuples would do the trick, but I find the dict display
more convenient and readable. Back in the archives there is probably a
whole discussion of why dict displays are useful. My reason for liking
displays is that I like to put dictionaries inside dictionaries - the
display format spread out over several lines makes this easy to read.
Possible solutions:
1. maybe use ^{ for OrderedDicts
newdict = ^{'fred':'flintstone', 'barney':'rubble', 'dino':'thedinosaur'}
2. have OrdredDict accept a dictionary display string
newodict = OrderedDict("{'fred':'flintstone', 'barney':'rubble',
'dino':'thedinosaur'}"}

New submission from Andrii V. Mishkovskyi <mishok13 at gmail.com>:
I think the following message is a little bit confusing:
Python 2.7a0 (trunk, Mar 17 2009, 12:06:19)
[GCC 4.3.2] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> open('abc\x00')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: file() argument 1 must be (encoded string without NULL
bytes), not str
This message could be much more better if unneeded parentheses were
removed. :)
The message on line 861 in Python/getargs.c reads much better:
"string without null bytes"
Would it be appropriate to change the message in topic to something like
this?

New submission from Devin Jeanpierre <jeanpierreda at gmail.com>:
The documentation uses the function signature
`abc.abstractproperty(fget[, fset[, fdel[, doc]]])`, implying that
fget is mandatory, and all other arguments are optional. The correct
version would be `abc.abstractproperty([fget[, fset[, fdel[,
doc]]]])`, or else to change abc.abstractproperty() to require fget (I
have not compiled 2.7+ to test if this is the case, I only know that
the docs in trunk continue to use this signature).
I initially suspected that I misunderstood the signature syntax, but
other functions use it as I would assume-- for instance, the Built-In
Functions documentation lists `property([fget[, fset[, fdel[,
doc]]]])`.

In-Reply-To: <1238196218.64.0.426344630758.issue5582@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
Message-ID: <1238196218.64.0.426344630758.issue5582@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
New submission from acummings <acummings at aperiogroup.com>:
On Windows, the calculation of when DST starts is incorrect. Windows OS
seems to be fully patched, and correctly changed to DST on 3-8-2009.
However, datetime.now() is 1 hour less then Windows displayed time.
I even tried setting the TZ environment variable to
PST8PDT,M3.2.0,M11.1.0 to fully specify the date change.
Below you can see that today (3-27-08) is marked as standard time, while
July 1st is DST and Jan 1st is Standard, if I understand the meaning of
the 9th element of the timetuple:
ON WINDOWS, with windows reporting the time as 3:59pm:
>>> july1 = datetime(2009, 7, 1)
>>> jan1 = datetime(2009, 1, 1)
>>> time.localtime(time.mktime(july1.timetuple()))
(2009, 7, 1, 0, 0, 0, 2, 182, 1)
>>> time.localtime(time.mktime(jan1.timetuple()))
(2009, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 3, 1, 0)
>>> time.localtime(time.mktime(datetime.now().timetuple()))
(2009, 3, 27, 14, 59, 46, 4, 86, 0)
It worked correctly on Linux, though:
>>> july1 = datetime(2009,7,1)
>>> jan1 = datetime(2009,1,1)
>>> time.localtime(time.mktime(july1.timetuple()))
(2009, 7, 1, 0, 0, 0, 2, 182, 1)
>>> time.localtime(time.mktime(jan1.timetuple()))
(2009, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 3, 1, 0)
>>> time.localtime(time.mktime(datetime.now().timetuple()))
(2009, 3, 27, 15, 57, 2, 4, 86, 1)

New submission from Mark Summerfield <mark at qtrac.eu>:
My suggestion is to add somewhere in the configuration dialog when users
can enter a block of Python code to be executed at startup and whenever
Restart Shell is executed.
Use case: for people who use IDLE for calculations/experiments they
might like to always have certain module imported. For me personally, it
would be:
import os
import re
import sys
from math import *
but of course the whole point is that people can write any code they
like. (Some people might want to do various from __future__ imports in
Python 2.6 to get various Python 3 features for example.)
I know that you can use the -c option, but that only works at startup,
not every time you Restart Shell.

New submission from Petr Dolezal <petr.dolezal at matfyz.cz>:
inspect.formatargspec is not able to handle functions with keyword only
arguments without the default values (probably rare, but still allowed).
This has also impact on help command which is then unable to show proper
help page for such functions.
Offending function examples:
def fun1(arg, defarg=None, *args, kwonly):
"""Some documentation."""
return arg, defarg, args, kwonly
def fun2(arg, defarg=None, *, kwonly):
"""Some documentation."""
return arg, defarg, kwonly
The fix is easy:
897c897
< if kwonlyarg in kwonlydefaults:
---
> if kwonlydefaults and kwonlyarg in kwonlydefaults:
For the test following code snippet taken from help module (or help) can
be used:
import inspect
def trybug(fun):
args, varargs, varkw, defaults, kwonlyargs, kwdefaults, ann = \
inspect.getfullargspec(fun)
argspec = inspect.formatargspec(
args, varargs, varkw, defaults, kwonlyargs, kwdefaults, ann,

This is DocFileSuite function source code

::
def DocFileSuite(*paths, **kw):
"""A unittest suite for one or more doctest files.
The path to each doctest file is given as a string; the
interpretation of that string depends on the keyword argument
"module_relative".
A number of options may be provided as keyword arguments:
This is DocFileSuite documentation
(http://svn.python.org/view/python/trunk/Doc/library/doctest.rst) :
::
.. function:: DocFileSuite([module_relative][, package][, setUp][,
tearDown][, globs][, optionflags][, parser][, encoding])
Convert doctest tests from one or more text files to a
:class:`unittest.TestSuite`.
The returned :class:`unittest.TestSuite` is to be run by the
unittest framework
and runs the interactive examples in each file. If an example in
any file
fails, then the synthesized unit test fails, and a
:exc:`failureException`
exception is raised showing the name of the file containing the
test and a
(sometimes approximate) line number.
Pass one or more paths (as strings) to text files to be examined.
I think "paths" argument missing in this documentation.

Message-ID: <1238384777.3.0.774822780209.issue5601@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
New submission from Mitchell Model <mlm at acm.org>:
There is a problem with the documentation of the webbrowser module:
opening a URL doesn't necessarily open it in a browser. The
documentation of the open function and method should say that the URL is
opened in whatever application the system chooses based on
considerations such as the type of URL, an application assigned to the
file, and the application assigned to the file's type (extension).
Here's why:
The documentation of module webbrowser, as well as the name of the
module itself, only mentions browsers as what opens the given URL.
However, on some platforms (Mac OS X, e.g.) if things are configured so
there is a default application associated with a particular file
extension, the webbrowser functions will open a path to a file in the
application associated with it's file type rather than a browser. This
is true whether or not "file://" precedes the file path in the "URL".
For example, if .py files are set to open in IDLE,
webbrowser.open('/fullpath/to/file.py') will open /fullpath/to/file.py
in IDLE. It's even possible to assign one browser to open .htm files and
another to open .html files.
It is also possible on some platforms (Mac, again) to assign a default
application to files of a particular extension but assign a different
application to specific files with that extension.
Applications can also be assigned to URL types. For instance, you could
have an application that isn't really a browser open ftp:// URLs. (This
also can happen when you download a file from a browser and the task is
turned over to a download application such as Speed Download or
Interarchy on a Mac.)
The real problem here is that some platforms have extended the idea of
opening a URL (including a bare file path interpreted as a file:// URL)
beyond browsers per se. In a sense the entire terminology of this module
is suspect, despite its obvious intent. Although not a serious
suggestion, it would more accurately be termed the urlopen module.

Perhaps the easiest way to say what is intended is "urllib.request.urlopen
replaces the function urllib.urlopen from versions of Python before 3.0".

New submission from Guido van Rossum <guido at python.org>:
There's a path in imp.find_module that mixes encodings. The module name
is encoded to char* using UTF-8 by the 's' format passed to
PyArg_ParseTuple(). But the path name is converted (in the loop over
the path in find_module()) to char* using the filesystem encoding. On
Windows this ends up constructing a char* that mixes MBCS and UTF8 in
one string.
(We discovered this when researching bug 4352, but this is not the cause
of the problem reported there -- the module name in that bug is ASCII.)
Andrew Svetlov is looking into producing a patch.

test_get_platform bogus for OSX

Message-ID: <1238431154.34.0.307596210829.issue5607@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
New submission from Ronald Oussoren <ronaldoussoren at mac.com>:
the testcase test_get_platform is not entirely correct for the OSX case.
Background: OSX supports fat binary builds (Apple calls those Universal
Binaries). The testitem for OSX gives a false negative when you run the
test with a Universal Binary build of Python on OSX.
To get correct test results on OSX you'll have to patch a number of other
variables as well, such as CFLAGS, because get_platform uses those to
detect if you're running on a universal build.

New submission from Thomas Willis <tom.willis at gmail.com>:
All the vast amounts of documentation out there on how to do neat things
with python seem to assume that python is already in the system path.
It would be nice if the installer went ahead and set this up for the
user. In my experience there are windows users that don't know how to do
that themselves. As a result, when opening a console(something else
becoming more and more foreign to windows users....) and typing "python"
they get an error and possibly give up, and go back to VB.net or Excel.
This seems like it would be a relatively easy thing to setup for them
and likely increase world domination.

vs \Z

Message-ID: <1238435977.23.0.604038870745.issue5610@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
New submission from Tony Nelson <tony_nelson at users.sourceforge.net>:
feedparser.py does not pares mixed newlines properly. NLCRE_eol, which
is used to search for the various newlines at End Of Line, uses $ to
match the end of string, but $ also matches \n$, due to a wise long-ago
patch by the Effbot. This causes feedparser to match '\r\n\n' at
'\r\n', and then to remove the last two characters, leaving '\r', thus
eating up a line. Such mixed line endings can occur if a message with
CRLF line endings is parsed, written out, and then parsed again.
When explicitly searching for various newlines, the \Z end-of-string
marker should be used instead. There are two improper uses of $ in
feedparser.py. I don't see any others in the email package.
NLCRE_eol = re.compile('(\r\n|\r|\n)$')
should be:
NLCRE_eol = re.compile('(\r\n|\r|\n)\Z')
and boundary_re also needs the fix.
I can write a test. Where exactly should it be put?

Message-ID: <1238436646.8.0.898787236764.issue5611@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
New submission from Kirk McDonald <kirklin.mcdonald at gmail.com>:
According to PEP 7, older C source files are indented with tabs, and
newer ones are indented with spaces. The vimrc file in the repository
assumes that existing C source files should be indented with tabs, and it
should indent with spaces when you create a new C source file. This has
an obvious drawback: It will configure vim to use tabs when you edit a
file that in fact uses spaces.
The attached patch will search for the regex '^\t'; if it is found, vim
will be configured to use tabs and an 8-column shiftwidth; and if it is
not found, it will be configured to use spaces and a 4-column shiftwidth.

>>> m['Subject'] = 'AA '*40
>>> str(m)

Note that all the AA's are single spaced, even though they were supposed
to be double spaced.
It should be noted that the fix for [issue1974] actually relies on this
bug for the fix to work properly ;-) More work will be required to fix
that bug when this bug is fixed :-(

The run_2to3 method, and therefore also the Mixin2to3 class doesn't take

have to do a lot of code duplication if you want to write distutil

The fix is simple, just add the parameter to the relevant methods.

It is difficult to display the frame you're in while debugging a core
dump in python 3.0 (when in a core dump, you can't run functions, and
thus cannot use many of the normal methods of displaying unicode).
Martin van Loewis discovered this gdb function (linked), "pu", which
prints out unicode strings. The way it does so is a bit kludgy, but I
think it is at least the start of a solution. Perhaps it can be
included in .gdbinit?

New submission from Martin v. L?wis <martin at v.loewis.de>:
To avoid bringing up CRT assert message dialogs, the CRT debug flags
need to be passed into subprocesses for multiprocessing.
CRT doesn't have getters. Instead, you have to set to 0, get the current
value, then restore it. This can be done with
modes = []
for m in [msvcrt.CRT_WARN, msvcrt.CRT_ERROR, msvcrt.CRT_ASSERT]:
oldmode = msvcrt.CrtSetReportMode(m, 0)
msvcrt.CrtSetReportMode(m, oldmode)
modes.append((m, oldmode))
The same probably needs to be done for CrtSetReportFile, except
that msvcrt.CrtSetReportFile currently doesn't return the previous
value. (Also, it returns a HFILE - hopefully, the file handle value
will still be valid in the subprocess)

The subsection "Augmented assignment statements" includes a note on this

But the parent section "Assignment statements" does not include such a
note, even though it's essentially the same situation. I suggest
replacing the bulleted paragraph that begins "If the target is an
attribute reference" with the following:
---------
* If the target is an attribute reference: The primary expression in
the reference is evaluated. It should yield an object with
assignable attributes; if this is not the case, TypeError is raised.
That object is then asked to assign the assigned object to the given
attribute; if it cannot perform the assignment, it raises an
exception (usually but not necessarily AttributeError).
If the object is a class instance and the attribute
reference occurs on both sides of the assignment operator; for example::
a.x = a.x + 1
... in the RHS expression, ``a.x`` is evaluated with
``getattr()``, which can access either an instance attribute or (if
no instance attribute exists) a class attribute. The LHS target
``a.x`` is assigned with ``setattr()``, which *always* accesses
an instance attribute, creating it if necessary. Thus, the two
occurrences of ``a.x`` do not necessarily refer to the same
variable. If the RHS expression refers to a class attribute, the LHS
creates a new instance attribute as the target of the assignment.
(This description does not necessarily
apply to attributes defined with ``property()``, which are accessed
with user-defined functions instead of ``getattr()`` and ``setattr()``).
See section "Augmented assignment statements" for a similar note on
attribute references.

New submission from Amaury Forgeot d'Arc <amauryfa at gmail.com>:
Python trunk, compiled with VS2005 SP1, release build on Windows 2000:
>>> import os
>>> fd = os.open("t", 0)
>>> os.close(fd)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
OSError: [Errno 9] Bad file descriptor
The _PyVerify_fd() returned False for the given fd!
Needless to say that there are many other similar failures. For example,
subprocess does not work.
Digging inside assembly code, I noticed that the __pioinfo structure
compiled inside msvcr80.dll has a sizeof==64 (asssembly code multiplies
by 64 when doing pointer arithmetic); in Debug mode, sizeof==56.
in posixmodule.c, _PyVerify_fd() uses a sizeof of 56...
It appears that Windows 2000 picks the first msvcr80.dll it finds on the
PATH. So I played with copying various versions of it in the target
directory. Here are the results, as reported by Visual Studio in the
"Modules" pane.
fails: C:\WINNT\system32\msvcr80.dll 8.00.50727.1433
fails: C:\python\trunk\PC\VS8.0\msvcr80.dll 8.00.50727.1433

works: C:\WINNT\system32\msvcr80d.dll 8.00.50727.762
DLL hell...
The manifest embedded inside python27.dll contains
version="8.0.50727.762", which is the only working version.
So the problem will likely not happen on Windows XP, which enforces
manifests.
Is there a way to enforce the manifest information on Windows 2000 as well?
If not, there may be several solutions:
- disable the _PyVerify_fd() stuff on Windows 2000.
- write clever code to detect the real sizeof(ioinfo) (for example:
_get_osfhandle(1) returns __pioinfo[0][1]->osfhnd, which is a file
opened for writing)

file not on local host

Message-ID: <1238514488.84.0.993697323023.issue5625@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
New submission from Ned Deily <nad at acm.org>:
[NOTE: applies to 2.x urllib2 and similar code in merged 3.x urllib]
test_urllib2 can fail because urllib2.FileHandler assumes incorrectly
that the local host has only a single IP address. It is not uncommon
to have host IP configurations where a host has more than one network
interface and the same IP host name is associated with each address.
Both the urllib module and test_urllib2 use
socket.gethostbyname(socket.gethostname())
to find "the" host IP address. But, as can be seen here,
consecutive calls may produce different addresses depending on the
network configuration and underlying os implementation:
Python 2.6.1 (r261:67515, Dec 17 2008, 23:27:50)
[GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5490)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import socket
>>> socket.gethostbyname(socket.gethostname())
'10.52.12.105'
>>> socket.gethostbyname(socket.gethostname())
'10.52.12.105'
>>> socket.gethostbyname(socket.gethostname())
'10.52.12.205'
>>>
This leads to predictable test failures when the calls in test_urllib2
and urllib2.FileHandler return different addresses:
test_urllib2
test test_urllib2 failed -- Traceback (most recent call last):
File
"/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/test/te
st_urllib2.py", line 621, in test_file
r = h.file_open(Request(url))
File
"/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/urllib2
.py", line 1229, in file_open
return self.open_local_file(req)
File
"/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/urllib2
.py", line 1266, in open_local_file
raise URLError('file not on local host')
URLError: <urlopen error file not on local host>
The simplest way to avoid the test failure is to modify
urllib2.FileHandler to use socket.gethostbyname_ex which returns all
of the IPv4 addresses associated with a hostname:
>>> socket.gethostbyname_ex(socket.gethostname())
('myhost.net', [], ['10.52.12.205', '10.52.12.105'])
Attached patches for 2.x urllib2 and 3.x urllib do that. Note that
there remain other issues in this area:
- when urllib2 is enhanced to support IPv6, code is needed to return
all of the host's IPv6 addresses as well (-> adding a note to open
Issue1675455)
- the merged 3.0 urlib has two nearly identical functions named
open_local_file, one each from 2.x urllib.URLopener and
urllib2.FileHandler, and both use similarly flawed
socket.gethostbyname(socket.gethostname()) tests but the tests for
local vs remote file URLs is somewhat different in each.
(The patches here do not attempt to address this other than to add
a comment.)

New submission from Ned Deily <nad at acm.org>:
The documentation for socket.gethostname() contains the following
comment:
"If you want to know the current machine?s IP address, you may want to
use gethostbyname(gethostname()). This operation assumes that there is a
valid address-to-host mapping for the host, and the assumption does not
always hold."
This comment leads to the mistaken assumption that a machine has only
one IP address, an assumption which results in bugs such as in
Issue5625. The comment also does not deal with other address families,
i.e. IPv6 addresses. Either the paragraph should be expanded to cover
multiple addresses and families, requiring the use of other socket
functions, or the paragraph should simply be removed.

New submission from Euler Taveira de Oliveira <euler at timbira.com>:
PyDict_SetItemString() fails when the second argument (key) is null
pointer. It occurs because PyString_FromString(key) call doesn't check
for null pointer and if we're in a disabled assert environment the
assert() is not caught and strlen() fails.
I don't know what is the best fix but we have two possibilities:
(i) check the second argument in PyDict_SetItemString() before calling
PyString_FromString() and returns null if that argument is null;
(ii) replace the assert() in PyString_FromString() to 'if (str == NULL)
return NULL;'.
This bug was reported as a PostgreSQL bug at [1].

Subject: [New-bugs-announce] [issue5630] Update CObject API so it is safe
and regular
In-Reply-To: <1238526469.89.0.691687509266.issue5630@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
Message-ID: <1238526469.89.0.691687509266.issue5630@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
New submission from Larry Hastings <larry at hastings.org>:
The CObject API has two flaws.
First, there is no usable type safety mechanism. You can store a void
*object, and a void *description. There is no established schema for
the description; it could be an integer cast to a pointer, or it could
point to memory of any configuration, or it could be NULL. Thus users
of the CObject API generally ignore it--thus working without any type
safety whatsoever. A programmer could crash the interpreter from pure
Python by mixing and matching CObjects from different modules (e.g. give
"curses" a CObject from "_ctypes").
Second, the destructor callback is defined as taking *either* one *or*
two parameters, depending on whether the "descr" pointer is non-NULL.
One can debate the finer points of what is and isn't defined behavior in
C, but at its heart this is a sloppy API.
MvL and I discussed this last night and decided to float a revision of
the API. I wrote the patch, though, so don't blame Martin if you don't
like my specific approach.
The color of this particular bike shed is:
* The PyCObject is now a private data structure; you must use accessors.
I added accessors for all the members.
* The constructors and the main accessor (PyCObject_AsVoidPtr) now all
*require* a "const char *type" parameter, which must be a non-NULL C
string of non-zero length. If you call that accessor and the "type" is
invalid *or doesn't match,* it fails.
* The destructor now takes the PyObject *, not the PyCObject *. You
must use accessors to get your hands on the data inside to free it.
Yes, you can easily skip around the "matching type" restriction by
calling PyCObject_AsVoidPtr(cobj, PyCObject_GetType(cobj)). The point
of my API changes is to *encourage* correct use.
The attached patch was written py3k/trunk r70718. It compiles with no
new warnings/errors and doesn't seem to cause any new failures in the
regression test.
Note: this patch is not complete; I fixed all the .c and .h files, but I
have yet to update the documentation. I figure I don't want to put the
effort in until the dust settles.

New submission from vadim suvorov <zzPythonTracker at stelary.com>:
In case of heavily recursive data structure cPickle produces
intermittent random exceptions (AttributeError, etc.). The expected is
RuntimeError: ('maximum recursion depth exceeded in ...'). In addition,
the behavior differs for classic/new classes.
The reason: the cPickle needs several optional methods (__getstate__,
__getinitargs__) for each object. In their absence an AttributeError is
generated. It is normally suppressed, but suppression itself causes
recursion. The error in exception processing leads to fancy errors.
The proposed solution: temporary (for call of PyErr_ExceptionMatches())
increase recursion limit.
