(Parenthetical remark. In the binding between Python and my language Kogut I'm exposing various standard APIs between the two languages automatically. And __unicode__ happened to be the *only* method which I needed to treat specially by tp_getattro. It's the only method I've encountered so far which is called by Python on lots of "ordinary" objects, and which doesn't have a C slot (and the consequence is that my default wrapper shouldn't forward it to the __unicode__ attribute in the other language, but to the appropriate API of the other language which obtains a Unicode rendition). This was a different issue than the topic of this bug, was solvable, but it was another suggestion that the way of handling __unicode__ is inconsistent with other *similar* attributes, similar in the sense of the amount of "genericity" and "magicness", and should have a C slot. The present problem is somewhat dual: now it's me who calls __unicode__ (even if indirectly), and it's Python who provides __unicode__ implementation of its objects. End of parenthetical remark.) Anyway, I'm afraid the issue is a symptom of a deeper problem. I was some time ago wondering how does Python distinguish whether x.foo, when x happens to be a class object (or type object), is meant to be an unbound method to be called with instances of that class, or a bound method to operate on the class object itself. It seems that Python doesn't attempt to use the second interpretation at all. Despite this, various standard operations are dressed in magic methods with names surrounded by double underscores do work for class objects! And while str(x) is the same as x.__str__() for most objects, it's not true for class objects and type objects: str(x) goes through the C slot while x.__str__() doesn't work. The set of methods which have C slots would seem to be just a shortcut for performance, but actually it has a semantic significance. Namely class objects and type objects can have specialized implementations of those methods, but not of ordinary methods. Fortunately it doesn't matter much in practice because the set of methods supported by class objects is fixed, and it just happens to be the subset of the methods with C slots. Unless some other objects can play the role of classes, and then the problem might reappear; I'm completely ignorant about Python metaclasses. -- Comment By: Brett Cannon (bcannon) Date: 2006-09-05 11:22 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=357491 This is because exceptions now define a proper __unicode__() method in the PyMethodDef array. This is what gets called and it requires an exception instance. Before it just fell through to the tp_str slot and that didn't complain. Unless some knows a better way (short of defining a tp_unicode slot), the only way to make this work would be to rip out the __unicode__() method. This would then require the function in the tp_str slot to have to detect if its arguments need to be Unicode or not (and I don't know how to do that off the top of my head; is their a PyUnicode_Check()?). -- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1551432&group_id=5470 ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python

Now I installed 2.5c1. python works fine from a terminal. When I start idle, it loads, puts up its menu bar, opens a shell window, displays usual startup info, and gives me a prompt. But, I can't type or get a cursor. Whenever I move the mouse over the idle window or menu bar, I get a spinning color wheel and can't do anything. I deleted the whole /library/python tree, reinstalled 2.5c1, and exactly the same thing happened. Oh, and I rebooted :) Not sure what is happening, or how to diagnose. -- Comment By: diggableme (diggableme) Date: 2006-09-09 17:18 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1594326 I am a new user that is experiencing the same exact problem.

I have also tried uninstalling and re-installing from the beginning with the same result.

Too busy to delve into the python source code though... -- Comment By: Ronald Oussoren (ronaldoussoren) Date: 2006-08-28 15:22 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=580910 I can reproduce this on 10.3.9: IDLE starts and opens the interactive window, but then completely blocks (spinning cursor). If I start IDLE from the commandline (/Applications/MacPython\ 2.5/ IDLE.app/Contents/MacOS/IDLE) I get a message about 'console' not being a valid command name. That requires further looking into, but is a red herring for this particular problem, removing the Tk-console hiding code in macosxSupport.py results in the same behaviour, without any further output on the console as well. Upgrading aquatk to the latest version (8.4.10.0) on tcltkaqua.sf.net didn't help, IDLE still hangs (Duh, that's because there's a /System/Library/ Frameworks/Tk.framework, which means a user install won't be used for IDLE). The problem is also unrelated to my IDLE.app work, the same problem occurs when starting $prefix/lib/python2.5/idlelib/idle.py. According to gdb the IDLE process is handing in a semaphore call inside the Tcl mainloop. Time to get into serious debugging mode I guess :-( BTW. IDLE does work correctly on a 10.4.7 system. -- Comment By: Kurt B. Kaiser (kbk) Date: 2006-08-28 13:59 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=149084 Maybe priority should be higher?

You have to change the recursion limit; if you do, you risk a crash, as the documentation says: http://docs.python.org/lib/module-sys.html "This should be done with care, because a too-high limit can lead to a crash." With an unmodified recursionlimit in 2.4.3 on Windows, I get the expected RuntimeError. If it causes a crash on some system, it just means that the default recursion limit is too high for that platform (however, we don't seem to have a confirmation that the default recursion limit is too large for this application on any platform for Python 2.4 or 2.5). It is quite common that the system provides the main thread with a larger stack space than any additional thread, so it is not surprising that the stack overflow is detected on some system when the code is run in the main thread, yet crashes in an additional thread. The default recursion limit should be the conservative minimum of what the system minimally guarantees for any thread.

Category: Distutils Group: Feature Request Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: John Levon (movement) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: distutils needs vendor-packages support Initial Comment: Currently, distutils supports "site-packages". It should also provide an option for "vendor-packages". -- >Comment By: Martin v. Löwis (loewis) Date: 2006-09-10 02:09 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=21627 What is "vendor-packages"? It is not something that is part of Python, AFAICT, so I don't think Python should support it. -- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1545659&group_id=5470 ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[ python-Bugs-1545658 ] distutils home scheme lacks python versioning

Category: Distutils Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: John Levon (movement) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: distutils home scheme lacks python versioning Initial Comment: The "home scheme", as described here: http://docs.python.org/inst/alt-install-windows.html seems to be broken: no version suffix is appended, yet .pyc files are not guaranteed across Python revisions. Thus, breakage can occur. This is quite annoying, as an OS vendor often would like to install stuff into /usr/lib/python2.x/ (not using vendor-packages). -- >Comment By: Martin v. Löwis (loewis) Date: 2006-09-10 02:13 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=21627 I fail to see the problem. Can you please provide a scenario where breakage does occur (instead of merely suggesting that it "can occur")? What is the specific error message that you get? Also, what does that have to do with OS vendors? They shouldn't use the home scheme. -- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1545658&group_id=5470 ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
