Category: IDLE Group: Python 2.5 >Status: Closed >Resolution: Fixed Priority: 7 Private: No Submitted By: Douglas W. Goodall (douglas_goodall) Assigned to: Kurt B. Kaiser (kbk) Summary: simple moves freeze IDLE Initial Comment: Using version 2.5 for Windows... import os then type "print os." and wait for the hint window. then scroll to the bottom (spawnv). That's it. At this point IDLE is frozen. I have done it a few times in a row. It seems very reproduceable to me. Be well.

Kaiser (kbk) Date: 2006-12-15 00:15 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=149084 Originator: NO Rev 53042 Also, it appears that os.__all__ is fixed. Thanks for the analysis! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Tal Einat (taleinat) Date: 2006-12-09 12:33 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1330769 Originator: NO This cause for this bug is an endless loop in AutoCompleteWindow.py, line 121: 114 selstart = self.completions[cursel] [snip...] 121 while cursel > 0 and selstart[:i] <= self.completions[cursel-1]: 122 i += 1 123 newstart = selstart[:i] The case where this loop becomes endless only arises when the same completion item appears twice in the completions list, thus self.completions[cursel-1] and self.completions[cursel] are identical. This happens with the os module because spawnv and spawnve appear twice in os.__all__. Solution: 1) Fix the potentially endless loop (add a bound for i) 2) Remove identical completion items from the completions list (its a bug anyways) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Ronald Oussoren (ronaldoussoren) Date: 2006-10-08 13:47 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=580910 As an additional data point: this seems to work just fine on Mac OS X. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Raymond Hettinger (rhettinger) Date: 2006-10-07 23:16 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=80475 I can reproduce this in Py2.5 final. This may be a TkInter bug and not unique to IDLE or to Windows. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Josiah Carlson (josiahcarlson) Date: 2006-10-07 12:58 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=341410 I can reproduce this on 2.5 beta 2, and it dies exactly when 'spawnv' is highlighted. I have no suggested fixes, only reproducing to verify that this is not user-specific bug. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1571112&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
