[issue9639] urllib2's AbstractBasicAuthHandler is limited to 6 requests

[Marcus Huewe]

New submission from Marcus Huewe :

It seems that commit r81636 broke urllib2's AbstractBasicAuthHandler because 
the "retried" attribute isn't reset on success. Therefore it's limited to 6 
requests. The attached patch should fix this problem.

[issue9636] {'key': 'value'}[b'key'] raises a BytesWarning

[STINNER Victor]

STINNER Victor  added the comment:

Oh. flox told me that there are other cases raising BytesWarning:

'abc' in {b'abc'}
'abc' in (b'xxx',)
'abc' in [b'xxx']

I suppose that the behaviour is different (only fail with same value / fail 
with different values) because set does first compare the hash (as dict), 
whereas tuple and list use a classic comparaison.

[issue9640] Improved doctest REPORT_*DIFFs with ELLIPSIS and/or NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE

[W. Trevor King]

New submission from W. Trevor King :

I had been struggling to find the failure-causing mismatch in a doctest with 
lots of output.  REPORT_UDIFF gave lots of false mismatches because I was also 
using NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE.  Looking through the doctest.py source, I saw a 
comment suggesting a nicer diff in the similar REPORT_*DIFF and ELLIPSIS 
situation.  So I went ahead and implemented one.  I'm not super happy with the 
cleanliness of the implementation, but it ended up being a bit trickier than 
I'd initially expected.

[issue9641] httplib/ftplib: timeout parameter not applied correctly

[Anders Sandvig]

New submission from Anders Sandvig :

>From :

Consider the following code for retreieving a web page using httplib:

   def get_url(hostname, port, url, timeout=5):
   con = httplib.HTTPConnection(hostname, port, timeout)
   con.request("GET", url)
   res = con.getresponse()
   data = res.read()
   return res, data

As expected, this will raise a socket.error if the client is unable to
connect before the timeout has expired. However, once the connection
has been made, the timeout parameter no longer has any effect and
con.getresponse() will block forever if the server does not send any
data.

I think the reason for this is that the socket object created in
HTTPConnection.connect() has a default timeout of 0 (i.e. it is never
set explicitly):

   def connect(self):
   """Connect to the host and port specified in __init__."""
   self.sock = socket.create_connection((self.host,self.port),
self.timeout)


For now I have been able to work around this by manually setting the
timeout of the (private) socket object after calling con.request(),
like this:

   ...
   con.request("GET", url)
   con.sock.settimeout(timeout)
   res = con.getresponse()
   ...

However, I don't think this is a very good solution as it relies on
knowledge about the inner workings of httplib (and I had to read the
library source code to come up with it).

>From the top of my head, I can come up with three (four) ways of
properly solving the issue:

1) Documenting the timeout behavior and describing the above hack in
the httplib documentation.

2) Modify HTTPConnection.connect() to set the timeout on the socket
object after it has been  created (using the same timeout as given on
the HTTPConnection constructor).

3) Adding (optional) timeout parameters to
HTTPConnection.getresponse() and HTTPResponse.read() (and possibly
other functions with the same problem).

4) A combination of 2) and 3).

[issue8622] Add PYTHONFSENCODING environment variable

[STINNER Victor]

STINNER Victor  added the comment:

Oh, I realized that PYTHONFSENCODING is ignored on Windows and Mac OS X. r84201 
and r84202 fix test_sys, and r84203 fixes the documentation and Python usage 
(hide PYTHONFSENCODING variable in Python help on Windows and Mac OS X).

We might allow to override the filesystem encoding on Windows, but I don't 
think that it is a good idea because third party libraries will use anyway the 
mbcs encoding.

[issue901727] extra_path kwarg to setup() undocumented

[Éric Araujo]

Éric Araujo  added the comment:

The patch has some words missing (“to put between”), but I can add them. I’m 
also going to include the example that was in Bob’s message, since the bit of 
doc in the table alone is not enough to understand clearly what this does IMO.

I’m reassigning this to distutils2. distutils only gets bug fixes, and its doc 
is changed only when it says something that doesn’t work. This lets us put 
energy on distutils2.

I’ll get to it this week-end or later.

[issue6822] Error calling .storlines from ftplib

[Antoine Pitrou]

Antoine Pitrou  added the comment:

Well if it's really "ASCII" mode, it should refuse any character > 127,
in which case I would agree to hardcode ascii as an encoding.

But, in any case, storing "lines" has a meaning in binary mode, as
witnessed by the fact that binary files in Python 3 have a readline()
method. This means storlines should still succeed for binary input, even
if it is made compatible with text input.

I would personally argue that the text transfer mode in FTP is an
ill-conceived feature from the start and ftplib should do whatever is
reasonable nowadays, rather than what looked reasonable 30 years ago.

[issue9641] httplib/ftplib: timeout parameter not applied correctly

[Anders Sandvig]

Anders Sandvig  added the comment:

The best (and simplest) solution seems to be option 2).

Affected methods are found to be HTTPConnection.connect() and
HTTPSConnection.connect() in Lib/httplib.py (Lib/http/client.py for 3.x) and
FTP.connect() and FTP.ntransfercmd() in Lib/ftplib.py.

It appears the issue can be fixed by simply adding a call to settimeout() on
socket objects returned by socket.create_connection(), but this should of course
be verified by appropriate tests.

[issue9642] #ifdef and mbcs: don't check for defined(HAVE_USABLE_WCHAR_T)

[STINNER Victor]

New submission from STINNER Victor :

mbcs codec functions are surrounded by:

#if defined(MS_WINDOWS) && defined(HAVE_USABLE_WCHAR_T)
(especially in unicodeobject.c and _codecsmodule.c)

or

#ifdef MS_WIN32
(in unicodeobject.h)

or

#if defined(MS_WINDOWS) && !defined(__BORLANDC__)
(in timemodule.c)

I think that all of these tests are wrong. We should just check that we are 
compiling under Windows: mbcs functions don't use the wchar_t type. And it's 
better to use the same test in all tests (MS_WIN32 vs MS_WINDOWS).

Attached patch replaces all #ifdef (except the one in timemodule.c because I 
don't know what to do with the BORLAND check, does anyone use this compiler?).

I suppose that my patch doesn't change anything in pratice because mbcs is used 
in many places and noboby complained that mbcs encoding was missing on Windows.

Bob's report is about undocumented functionality that is used in real life and 
was the best way to install python distributions in a self-contained way before 
setuptools was invented.

AFAIK The "options" argument to setup is also not documented an that one is 
also used (both py2exe and py2app mention this feature in their documentation).

[issue9630] Reencode filenames when setting the filesystem encoding

[STINNER Victor]

STINNER Victor  added the comment:

> since the modules were successfully imported, surely it means that
> their filenames where correctly computed and encoded? So why is the
> __filename__ attribute wrong?

Python starts with 'utf-8' encoding. If the new encoding is "smaller" (unable 
to encode as much characters as utf-8), PyUnicode_EncodeFS() and os.fsencode() 
will raise UnicodeEncodeError.

Eg. your Python setup is installed in a directory called b'py3k\xc3\xa9' and 
your locale is C (ascii encoding). At startup, the directory name is decoded to 
'py3ké' (using the defautlt encoding, utf-8). initfsencoding() sets the 
encoding to ascii: 'py3ké' cannot be encoded to the filesystem encoding (ascii) 
anymore.

--

If we set the default filesystem encoding to ascii (#8725), it will work but 
the filenames will be full of surrogates characters. Eg. you Python setup is 
installed in b'py3k\xc3\xa9' and your locale encoding is utf-8: b'py3k\xc3\xa9' 
will be decoded to 'py3k\udcc3\udca9' and leaved unchanged by initfsencoding(). 
Surrogates characters are not pratical: you have to escape them to display 
them. Print a filename with surrogates in a terminal raise a UnicodeEncodeError 
(even with utf-8 encoding).

[Antoine Pitrou]

Antoine Pitrou  added the comment:

Well, that's what BytesWarning is for. I agree it is annoying in normal use, 
but it is meant to ease porting of 2.x code. That's why it is only enabled when 
you use the corresponding command-line switch.

The warning in the dict case is especially important: otherwise it is easy to 
get a dict with duplicate bytes and unicode keys (say b"xxx" and "xxx"), and 
potentially different values.

I don't think so.

On Mac OS X, you cannot create a file with an invalid utf-8 name. The VFS uses 
utf-8:
http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/qa/qa2001/qa1173.html

Use a different encoding will raise error for the first non-ascii filename.

--

About Windows, Python3 uses the wide character API of Windows, except in some 
functions using third party libraries only providing a bytes API (eg. 
openssl). filenames are stored as unicode, even on removable media like CD-Rom 
or USB keys. I don't get the usecase here. Why would you like to change the 
filesystem encoding on Windows?

Yes, I'm assuming that's how _HTTP_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT would be set and queried.

[issue9641] httplib/ftplib: timeout parameter not applied correctly

[Anders Sandvig]

Anders Sandvig  added the comment:

socket.create_connection() does in fact set the timeout of the resulting socket 
object, so the issue is not an issue after all.

The problems I experienced was a result of sending the timeout as the third 
parameter to the HTTPConnection() constructor instead of a named parameter, 
i.e.:

  con = httplib.HTTPConnection(hostname, port, timeout)

should have been:

  con = httplib.HTTPConnection(hostname, port, timeout=timeout)

[issue9636] {'key': 'value'}[b'key'] raises a BytesWarning

[Mark Dickinson]

Mark Dickinson  added the comment:

> The warning in the dict case is especially important

It's worth noting that this warning is dependent on hash() producing the same 
values for 'equivalent' bytes and str instances.  This seems a bit fragile, and 
is something that could potentially change in the future---with bytes and str 
comparing unequal, there's no reason for the hashes to correspond.

(It might even make sense to deliberately change the hash for either  bytes or 
str so that it doesn't match the other, just to expose any bugs that rely on 
the hashes being identical.)

[issue9576] logging.addLevelName in file-based configurations

[Vinay Sajip]

Vinay Sajip  added the comment:

While custom levels are supported for the rare cases where they're needed, 
they're not really encouraged. For example, if third-party libraries each set 
their own custom logging levels, it would be a headache to integrate them into 
an application's overall logging scheme.

So I'm not in favour of making it easier to define custom levels via 
configuration - it's not (meant to be) a common use case.

One thing I can say is that this patch would have to be converted to be

Actually, no, the "consistency" of hashes is necessary for the
BytesWarning to be useful with dicts. Because the situations it is meant
to uncover are those where e.g. you have "A" as a key and you are
looking up b"A".

(you don't really care, on the other hand, if you are looking up b"A" in
a dict which has only "B"; and, yes, I know there will still be false
positives :-))

Yes.  That's precisely the point I was trying to make.  (Probably badly.)

[issue9643] urllib2 - Basic, Digest Auth Handlers Retry will give 401 code instead of 407

[Senthil Kumaran]

New submission from Senthil Kumaran :

The retry logic and code used by ProxyBasicAuthHandler and 
ProxyDigestAuthHandler are same as normal authentication handlers. While this 
reuse is good, there is a problem that, on authentication failure, the 
HTTPError code is hardcoded to 401, whereas for Proxy cases it should have been 
407.

The problematic line is this:


def http_error_auth_reqed(self, auth_header, host, req, headers):
...
raise HTTPError(req.full_url, 401, "digest auth failed",
headers, None)

can be changed by:
- Passing the errcode as arg.
- Or getting it from headers.

[issue9644] PEP 383: os.statvfs() does not accept surrogateescape arguments

[David Watson]

New submission from David Watson :

The statvfs() function still converts its argument with the "s"
format; the attached patch (for 3.2) fixes it to use
PyUnicode_FSConverter().

[issue9645] PEP 383: os.pathconf() does not accept surrogateescape arguments

[David Watson]

New submission from David Watson :

The pathconf() function still converts its argument with the "s"
format; the attached pathconf-pep383-3.2.diff fixes it to use
PyUnicode_FSConverter() (in 3.2).  Also attaching
pathconf-cleanup.diff to clean up the indentation, which
otherwise makes the code rather confusing to look at.

[issue9646] Mutable default function parameter warning

[Sérgio Surkamp]

New submission from Sérgio Surkamp :

The documentation states that the default value of function parameter, if 
mutable, can change it's default value at runtime due to be evaluated only once 
on function object creation.

I would like to suggest the inclusion of an default language warning when this 
kind of construction is used, as it's Python specific behavior and can lead to 
"strange behavior" or misuse by programmers that are migrating from other 
languages to Python.

Documentation reference:
http://docs.python.org/reference/compound_stmts.html#function

[issue9647] os.confstr() does not handle value changing length between calls

[David Watson]

New submission from David Watson :

This came up in relation to issue #9579; there is some discussion
of it there.  Basically, if os.confstr() has to call confstr()
twice because the buffer wasn't big enough the first time, the
existing code assumes the string is the same length that the OS
reported in the first call instead of using the length from the
second call and resizing the buffer if necessary.  This means the
returned value will be truncated or contain trailing garbage if
the string changed its length betweeen calls.

I don't know of an actual environment where configuration strings
can change at runtime, but it's not forbidden by POSIX as far as
I can see (the strings are described as "variables", after all,
and sysconf() values such as CHILD_MAX can change at runtime).
Implementations can also provide additional confstr() variables
not specified by POSIX.

The patch confstr-long-result.diff at issue #9579 would fix this
(for 3.x), but Victor Stinner has expressed concern that a buggy
confstr() could create a near-infinite loop with that patch
applied.
