[issue8040] It would be nice if documentation pages linked to other versions of the same document

[Ezio Melotti]

Ezio Melotti  added the comment:

I think I've already discussed this with Georg a while ago and we ended up 
adding the links on the left sidebar in http://docs.python.org/.
IIRC there's no easy way to find the same document in another version of the 
doc, not even now with Sphinx.
I think this can be closed, unless Georg disagrees.

[issue9110] contextlib.ContextDecorator

[Raymond Hettinger]

Raymond Hettinger  added the comment:

Jack, thanks for the explanation.  Glad it seems sensible to more than just one 
person.  To my eyes, it looks like a little too much magic and I would be more 
comfortable if this idea and its variants had been explored more thoroughly by 
the community before it got injected into the standard library.

Ah yes, so it is.  Thank you.  I thought I remembered seeing it
somewhere in the buildbot output in the past;  I obviously didn't look
hard enough.

[issue1720250] PyGILState_Ensure does not acquires GIL

[Amaury Forgeot d'Arc]

Amaury Forgeot d'Arc  added the comment:

This is still the case: the documentation should mention that 
PyEval_ReleaseLock() is not the correct function to release "the GIL", both the 
interpreter lock *and* the current thread state have to be released.

[issue9110] contextlib.ContextDecorator

[Nick Coghlan]

Nick Coghlan  added the comment:

The idea of building this into contextlib actually came out on off-list 
discussion between Michael and I. To quote the original suggestion he sent to 
me:

"""What do you think about adding ContextDecorator to contextlib for Python 3.2?

http://pypi.python.org/pypi/contextdecorator

It's a simple recipe but useful nonetheless (and Barry Warsaw at least is very 
enthusiastic about it ;-).

ContextDecorator allows you to create APIs that behave as both context managers 
and as decorators. It also provides the optional exception handling capability 
of __exit__ for decorators. This isn't an uncommon pattern, used in libraries 
like mock, py.test and django, and it is at least slightly fiddly to get 
right."""

I agree it is good to have that additional motivation (and the reference to 
previous work) here in the tracker issue rather than squirreled away in a 
couple of private email archives.

[issue9110] contextlib.ContextDecorator

[Nick Coghlan]

Nick Coghlan  added the comment:

One thing that Jack's confusion above does suggest to me is that we should 
mention in the *ContextDecorator* documentation that it is automatically 
applied to the context managers created when you use @contextmanager. A lot of 
people familiar with contextmanager are just going to read the docs for the new 
toy, so may miss the fact that we have added __call__ support to 
GeneratorContextManager.

As far as use cases go, this change is just syntactic sugar for any construct 
of the following form:

  def f():
with cm():
  # Do stuff

ContextDecorator lets you instead write:

  @cm
  def f():
# Do stuff

It makes it clear that the CM applies to the whole function, rather than just a 
piece of it (and saving an indentation level is nice, too).

[issue876421] logging handlers raise exception on level

[Vinay Sajip]

Vinay Sajip  added the comment:

If I did this for some but not handler classes, then people would probably log 
issues saying e.g. "Why doesn't NTEventLogHandler" support a level argument? 
Other handlers do." etc.

What's the big problem with using setLevel() to set the level? If you're after 
convenience, you could use the dictionary configuration API which allows you to 
set the levels declaratively.

[issue1685962] socket.getaddrinfo() should take an address tuple.

[Giampaolo Rodola']

Giampaolo Rodola'  added the comment:

I think the original reason why getaddrinfo() has been designed to accept 
separate host and port args instead of a tuple is because the original C call 
does the same:
http://www2.research.att.com/~gsf/man/man3/getaddrinfo.html

Despite this apparently looks somewhat inconsistent with other calls like 
bind(), connect() and connect_ex() which take an address tuple, they reflect 
the original C behavior in the same manner, also because they're fundamentally 
different than getaddrinfo(), so I see no valid reason to change this situation.

We don't need to match numbers, we just need to match links, which in 99% of
all cases follow a regular pattern:

For example:

http://docs.python.org/py3k/library/fractions.html
http://docs.python.org/library/fractions.html
http://docs.python.org/release/2.6.5/library/fractions.html

It's pretty easy to generate the links to the corresponding pages.  The
trickier part is testing that the link is valid when building the pages.

In an ideal universe, there would be a way to manually specify when a page
has been renamed (e.g., _winreg -> winreg), but even if those links were
missing it would still be quite useful (IMO, of course).

How many other versions would you link to? Multiple links could get a bit

The same number as currently listed in the sidebar on the index page.

When I opened this issue originally, I hadn't learned Sphinx yet and
couldn't propose a solution.  Since then I've started using Sphinx and have
a much better idea of what it can and cannot do.

It would require a new Sphinx extension, but it need not be a complex one.

Inside sidebartoc:

Docs for other versions

(call extension module)


The extension module would use a global directory (outside of a particular
version's Sphinx build) to keep track of which versions had generated the
same page.  The builds would have to be run twice, once to produce all of
the information and once to include it.  Alternately, they could be run once
if it's acceptable to use Apache Server-Side-Includes (SSI).

If you want to assign the issue to me and leave it open, that would be fine
with me.  I can't promise to get to it soon, but I'm willing to work on it
eventually.

[issue9207] multiprocessing occasionally spits out exception during shutdown (_handle_workers)

[Jesse Noller]

Jesse Noller  added the comment:

Talking with Brett; the fix should be as simple as keeping a reference to the 
debug function which we have in the imports. During interpreter shutdown, the 
sys.modules is iterated and each module replaced with None. Since the 
_handle_workers thread persists slightly past the point of the parent (and can, 
it's a daemon thread) debug is vanishing on us.

We can go with switching this to a classmethod, and keeping a reference on the 
class, passing debug directly into the _handle_workers thread (testing this 
last night fixed it 100% of the time)

[issue1522400] irda socket support

[Antoine Pitrou]

Antoine Pitrou  added the comment:

A new patch should be generated against 3.2 (the current one doesn't apply 
cleanly).

Also, checking for linux/irda.h requires that sys/socket.h is included, hence 
needing the following snippet in configure.in:

# On Linux, irda.h requires sys/socket.h  
AC_CHECK_HEADERS(linux/irda.h,,,[   
#ifdef HAVE_SYS_SOCKET_H
#include

[issue2053] IDLE - standardize dialogs

[Tal Einat]

Tal Einat  added the comment:

Because of the method of implementation, a dialog can be created without 
specifying a parent. There was at least one instance of this in IDLE before my 
patch. This is a bug, since the behavior of the dialog in this instance is 
obviously incorrect (the user can switch focus back to the parent while the 
dialog is still open).

I found that making the EditorWindow the default parent was the best way to 
both fix the bug, make the code more readable, and avoid replicating this bug 
in the future. Feel free to write up a different patch or change mine if you 
feel so strongly about the default parent.

The process of discussing this patch has taken far, far too long. I can't stand 
such discussions spanning months (and years!). Please just accept this patch or 
close it. I'm fed up with this.

[issue1522400] irda socket support

[Antoine Pitrou]

Antoine Pitrou  added the comment:

Here is a straight port of the patch to py3k, compiling under Linux and 
Windows. Several problems though:

1. the patch seems incomplete, in that manual decoding of return values is 
necessary (see posted example obex_test.py)

2. there seems to be no way to test it if you don't have an IRDA device (I 
don't have any)

3. the patch itself seems fragile: for example, it won't always put a 
terminating '\0' in sir_name; also, straight memcpy() of an int into a char[] 
buffer is wrong (endianness issues)

[issue8844] Condition.wait() doesn't raise KeyboardInterrupt

[Reid Kleckner]

Reid Kleckner  added the comment:

Here's a patch that makes Python-level lock acquisitions interruptible for 
py3k.  There are many users of the C-level lock API, most of whom are not set 
up to deal with lock acquisition failure.  I decided to make a new API function 
and leave the others alone.

If possible, I think this should go out with 3.2.

In that case, I was wondering if I should merge PyThread_acquire_lock_timed 
with my new PyThread_acquire_lock_timed_intr, since PyThread_acquire_lock_timed 
wasn't available in 3.1.  Although it did go out in 2.7, we don't promise C API 
compatibility with the 2.x series, so I don't think it matters.

I've tested this patch on Mac OS X and Linux.  The whole test suite passes on 
both, along with the test that I added to test_threadsignals.py.

I added a noop compatibility wrapper to thread_nt.h, but I haven't tested it or 
built it.  When I get around to testing/fixing the subprocess patch on Windows, 
I'll make sure this works and the test is skipped.

Yes, I think you should.

I haven't tried the patch, but it seems you got the logic right. There's a 
problem sometimes that you're using 2 spaces for indent rather than 4. Also, 
you forgot to update the RLock implementation in _threadmodule.c (and perhaps 
add another test for it).

(there are other modules which use the PyThread_acquire_lock API, but most of 
the time the locks are held for a short time (and shouldn't deadlock), which 
makes converting them less of a priority)

This is line 148 in the unpatched source, namely the 
'reversed(range(len(self._pool)))' line of _join_exited_workers.  Looks like 
the same issue, where instead reversed/range/len have been set to None.

So I think by changing how much time the worker_handler spends in various 
functions, I've made it possible (or just more likely?) that if we lose the 
race with interpreter shutdown the worker_handler will be in the middle of 
_join_exited_workers.  This may mean that someone should keep around a local 
reference to reversed/range/len... not sure if there's a better solution.

[issue5286] urrlib2 digest authentication problems

[Mark Lawrence]

Mark Lawrence  added the comment:

To quote msg82284. "The fix in the patch is crude, but it should work better 
than now."  Would this be acceptable?
