[issue6528] builtins colored as keyword at beginning of line

[Terry J. Reedy]

Terry J. Reedy  added the comment:

I just realized that there is 'another' reason not to reuse builtin names 
(other than those usually given): they will be colorized as builtins even if 
they have no relation to the builtin. Make_pat uses the function any() defined 
just above (before the builtin, I am sure), so 'any' is colored as if it were 
the builtin. Within ColorDelegator.py, it is only used within make_pat, so I 
considered renaming it to anyp or any_pat, but it might be used by some other 
module that imports ColorDelegator. Another issue.

"name not in keyword.kwlist" could be "name not in {None, True, False}", but 
those happen to be the first three items in the kwlist, so the time difference 
would be nil.

Looks good. Tested on 3.2.2 Win7. Applied.

[issue13695] "type specific" to "type-specific"

Boštjan Mejak  added the comment:

Found one little bug again in 
http://docs.python.org/library/stdtypes.html#sequence-types-str-unicode-list-tuple-bytearray-buffer-xrange

Look at the table with the fields Operation, Result, Notes, and fix the fifth 
record of the Result field from "i'th item of s, origin 0" to "i-th item of s, 
origin 0".

So change only that apostrophe into a hyphen, so "i'th" to "i-th".

[issue13797] Add a __buffer__ special method to retrieve a PEP 3118 object

[Nick Coghlan]

New submission from Nick Coghlan :

Currently, there's no straightforward way to create new classes in Python that 
delegate the PEP 3118 buffer APIs to another object that supports them (e.g. 
bytes, bytearray, memoryview, array.array, a NumPy array).

I see a few possible ways to go about this:

1. Add a single new special method, __buffer__. This creates an entry in the 
underlying getbuffer slot, but leaves releasebuffer empty.

The getbuffer wrapper then calls __buffer__ and delegates the getbuffer call to 
the returned object.

Any created Py_buffer instances refer directly to the underlying PEP 3118 
supporting object, not the original object that defines __buffer__

The downside of this approach is that you can't implement a completely new PEP 
3118 supporting object in pure Python (since you don't get access to the flags)

2. As above, but any Py_buffer structs returned are updated to refer to the 
original object, not the underlying one. A releasebuffer wrapper is also 
created, that calls back into __buffer__ to retrieve the object again. This 
approach has problems if __buffer__ can change to refer to different objects 
over time.

3. Define separate __getbuffer__ and __releasebuffer__ special methods. All C 
types implementing the PEP 3118 slots get these special methods automatically 
(as with any other slot). The flag variables are passed into __getbuffer__, and 
it is expected to return a memoryview object defining the view. The underlying 
getbuffer slot wrapper stores the current object in the Py_buffer "obj" slot, 
and the returned memoryview in "internal". The rest of the Py_buffer fields are 
populated based on the memoryview contents.

The releasebuffer wrapper then reverses this process, by passing the memoryview 
instance from the internal slot into the __releasebuffer__ call.

[issue12600] Support parameterized TestCases in unittest

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray  added the comment:

Meaning you want to run the same test suite with a variety of different DB 
connections?  That seems like a reasonable use case.

Personally I find that while I sometimes create subclasses to adjust certain 
class parameters (thus creating a parameterized test case), more often I also 
have test support methods that are different between the subclasses, which 
would be more clumsy to do via non-subclass parameterization.

Also, I do have to admit that for the case of just adjusting class constants, 
it would probably be a fair bit more readable to use a class parameterization 
scheme to express the testing variations, if only because it would pull the 
variations into a single cohesive block of code.

So I guess I'm a +0 on this given a concrete use case.

[issue10181] Problems with Py_buffer management in memoryobject.c (and elsewhere?)

[Nick Coghlan]

Nick Coghlan  added the comment:

Finally reviewed Stefan's latest patch. It mostly looks great to me. Aside from 
a few minor cosmetic quibbles, the only substantive change I would like is to 
expose the Py_buffer len field as "memoryview.size" instead of "memoryview.len" 
(to reduce confusion with "len(memoryview)" and to encourage a conceptual link 
with sys.getsizeof()).

As noted in the review, I also think fixing #12384 should be fairly 
straightforward and it would be nice to have that working when the change is 
applied.

(Kristjan: I added you to the nosy list, since you commented on another issue 
that you had been poking around in the memoryview internals and noticed a few 
dodgy things. Stefan's work on this issue is aimed at comprehensively 
addressing those problems).

[issue13779] os.walk: bottom-up

[Zbyszek Szmek]

Zbyszek Szmek  added the comment:

Hi,
I think that the documentation is pretty clear ("[if topdown=False] ...  the 
directories in dirnames have already been generated by the time dirnames itself 
is generated"). And such behaviour is what one would expect, since it is the 
result of the simplest implementation (listdir(), yield , yield 
, yeild , yeild ).

I don't think that the implementation will be changed, since it is pretty to do 
listdir() yourself if needed, and it would make the function slower for the 
common use case.

Improving the documentation is always possible, what sentence would you see 
added (what would make the behaviour clearer to you?) ?

What do you mean exactly? Another process has re-created "b" in parallel?
This race condition is pretty impossible to solve in the general case (unless 
the filesystem is transactional): even if you call os.listdir() again, a new 
file or dir could appear just before the following call to os.rmdir().

(just for the record, shutil.rmtree already allows you to delete a filesystem 
tree)

[issue13779] os.walk: bottom-up

[patrick vrijlandt]

patrick vrijlandt  added the comment:

The documentation of this function is generally ambiguous, because os.walk is a 
generator. Thus "generate" means (1) yielded from a generator and (2) prepared 
for later use within the generator. To avoid the ambiguity, "generate" should 
be avoided if possible. (1) might be replaced by "return" and (2) by "prepare".

@zbysz
The paragraph you cite is about "Modifying dirnames ". If you are not 
"Modifying dirnames" (like me) this section easily skips your attention.

My problem was, of course, that I had myself changed the directory structure - 
It's not a race condition with another process but an effect  of the loop 
os.walk was managing.

@pitrou
shutil.rmtree cannot help me, because I'm only deleting empty dirs.

Proposal (very verbose I'm afraid):
If you change the directory structure below dirpath while topdown=True, you can 
modify dirnames in-place so that walk will visit the right directories. If you 
change the directory structure below dirpath while topdown=False (maybe while 
you where there), dirnames and filenames can still reflect the old situation 
and it might be necessary to call os.listdir again.

[issue11805] package_data only allows one glob per-package

[Éric Araujo]

Éric Araujo  added the comment:

Copied from #13712:

[I]
Problem is that the setup.cfg syntax does not define how to give more than one 
value.  If it’s judged acceptable to disallow paths with embedded spaces, we 
could do something like this:

[files]
package_data =
spam = first second third

Otherwise we’d need to use multiple lines (requested in #5302) [actually no, it 
was this bug #11805]

[files]
package_data =
spam = first
spam = second
spam = third

We probably don’t want that.  An intermediate idea:

[files]
package_data =
spam = first
   second
   third

Not sure this would be the nicest thing for people to write, and for us (me) to 
extend the setup.cfg parser for.


[Erik Bray]
FWIW, I'm for the first option for specifying package_data:

[files]
package_data =
spam = first second third

I'm pretty sure this is how I ended up implementing it in d2to1, since I needed 
this functionality.

Theoretically spaces could be supported with an escape sequence, but I don't 
think that's worth complicating things for if package_data is deprecated 
anyways.  I'm all for making it difficult for anyone trying to include 
filenames with spaces in their source code.


So, I think allowing spaces and newlines to separate multiple values will be 
the nicest (spaces only would require users to cram all there file specs on one 
line).

[issue13412] Symbolic links omitted by os.listdir on some systems

[Jason R. Coombs]

Jason R. Coombs  added the comment:

While this may in fact be related to #6727, I don't believe it's a proper 
duplicate. I believe there's a more fundamental issue that's causing both #6727 
and #13412, and that's that stat/wstat is broken on Windows due to a regression 
in the MS C runtime: 
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vcgeneral/thread/93ebb061-d952-4650-b15c-30548a6649a8/

I mention that here because a fix for #6727 if localized to import.c may not 
address this issue.

It think that you are wrong here: generate is consistently used in
meaning (1) in the docstring. Also "return" means something completely 
different. "generate" is better than "prepare", because it is more specific,
especially from the POV of the user of the function, who only cares about
when something is yielded, not when it is prepared.

Hm, I think that the difference in behaviour between topdown=False and 
topdown=True is smaller then this proposal implies.
When topdown=True, the list is not updated after changes on disk. So both 
removing and adding directories does _not_ cause them to added or removed from 
the list of subdirectories to visit. Nevertheless, the default behaviour on
error is to do nothing, so it _looks_ like they were skipped.

So I think that the documentation could only clarify that the list of 
subdirectories is queried first, before the dir or the subdirectories are 
"generated".

IMO, now that two official releases of Python 3 have shipped with this behavior

[issue6531] atexit_callfuncs() crashing within Py_Finalize() when using multiple interpreters.

[Antoine Pitrou]

Antoine Pitrou  added the comment:

There seem to be two issues at play here:

- the atexit module (and its companion helper _Py_PyAtExit()) doesn't know 
about sub-interpreters.

- PyState_FindModule() doesn't know about sub-interpreters either, because the 
m_index field (which records the module's index in an interpreter's module list 
(PyInterpreterState.modules_by_index)) is recorded in the PyModuleDef structure 
rather than the module instance: it is therefore global to all interpreters

Having atexit work properly with sub-interpreters would require fixing these 
two issues AFAICT.

But yes, if anything else is done a concrete API proposal is the first

[issue6727] ImportError when package is symlinked on Windows

[Jason R. Coombs]

Jason R. Coombs  added the comment:

I ported the patch to the 3.2 branch. This port required more extensive 
adjustments. In particular, the NullImporter no longer used (char *) for 
directory detection, but instead used platform-specific PyObjects.

Therefore, the 3.2 diff creates a new function, Py_PathIsDir, which takes a 
PyUnicode on Windows and PyBytes on other platforms and calculates the 
directory state of the parameter.

I'm fairly unhappy with the way the patch for 2.7 and 3.1 translated to 3.2.

So, I'm seeking review and approval of the 2.7 and 3.1 patches, and comments on 
the 3.2 patch.

Why is normalization in getattr unacceptable?  I won't pretend to *like* it,

Would it be OK to normalize in object's own implementation, so that custom

[issue13793] hasattr, delattr, getattr fail with unnormalized names

[Benjamin Peterson]

Benjamin Peterson  added the comment:

Because it's (very) expensive and the method you propose would fail in the case 
that someone had put the normalized and unnormalized string in the object's 
__dict__.

[issue13052] IDLE: replace ending with '\' causes crash

[Terry J. Reedy]

Terry J. Reedy  added the comment:

The library manual has chapters for

unittest: the generic testing framework (package) that any app can use

test: a package with the Python test suite; test_x tests module x
  It has other modules and subpackages, probably not all documented.
  The test modules use unittest, doctest, and other code.

test.support: some of the other code

AS it says in the test chapter, the test suite imports each test_x and runs its 
test_main function. The tkinter package includes a test subpackage. test_tk 
checks that _tkinter and tk are available and if so, runs the tests in 
tkinter.test. (But I am not sure it really does what it should ;-).

My thought is that we might want to do something similar with idle. However, 
there needs to be a test_idle module in any case, so we can start with a few 
tests there and migrate them to a separate idlelib.test subpackage later if we 
want.

[issue12600] Support parameterized TestCases in unittest

[Mark Diekhans]

Mark Diekhans  added the comment:

This is for external parameterization of a test to run in a
different environment.  Internal reuse of test code is usually
better done inside of the code using standard OOP approaches.

The different in database connections is due to wanting to run
the tests on different systems with different database users,
passwords and database names.  Normally we have an object that
reads this information from file specified on the command line,
the object is passed to code that creates the connections.

A similar problem exists when tests must be run against a server
and require a host name.  External parameterization to specify
the host name is required.

While it's certainly possible to come up with says to pass this
setting things in globals (including environment variable), this
does lead to confusing code.

The macros should be named PyDelta_XXX, as PyDelta_Check and friend.

[issue8285] IDLE not smart indenting correctly in nested statements

[Terry J. Reedy]

The current indentation is a consequent of using tabs for indents.
Changing that is the subject of #7676.
#1196946 is a similar issue.

[issue13781] gzip module does the wrong thing with an os.fdopen()'ed fileobj

[Nadeem Vawda]

Nadeem Vawda  added the comment:

For 3.x, I think that ignoring non-string names is a reasonable fix. The docs
for io.FileIO specify that its name attribute can be either a path or an integer
file descriptor, and changing this doesn't seem to serve any purpose.

As for the case of 2.7's bogus "" name attribute, I'm not sure what the
best course of action is. I agree that ideally we would want to get rid of the
attribute altogether (for objects returned by fdopen), or change the semantics
to those used by FileIO in 3.x, but making that sort of change in a bugfix
release seems unwise.

One alternative would be for GzipFile to specifically check whether a file
object was returned by fdopen(), and if so ignore the fake name. I'm not sure
how this could be accomplished, though - just checking for name == "" is
too fragile for my liking, and I can't see any other obvious way of
distinguishing objects created by fdopen() from those created by open().

> (another quick test shows that gzip in python 3.x can't output to a BytesIO
> fileobj at all, it thinks it is readonly)

Are you sure about this? I can't reproduce the problem. Running this script:

import gzip, io

b = io.BytesIO()
with gzip.GzipFile(fileobj=b, mode="w") as g:
g.write(b"asdf ghjk")
print(b.getvalue())
b.seek(0)
with gzip.GzipFile(fileobj=b, mode="r") as g:
print(g.read())

I get the following output:


b'\x1f\x8b\x08\x00\xe1\xa4\x14O\x02\xffK,NISH\xcf\xc8\xca\x06\x00P\xd2\x1cJ\t\x00\x00\x00'
b'asdf ghjk'

[issue13802] IDLE Prefernces/Fonts: use multiple alphabets in examples

[Terry J. Reedy]

New submission from Terry J. Reedy :

In the Fonts/Tabs tab of the IDLE Preference dialog, the large box for examples 
of the font selected shows a small square of ascii chars. I think the box 
should also show 1 char for each of several alphabets so the consequence of 
choosing various fonts will be more evident. I am thinking of adding several 
line with the format

[issue12600] Support parameterized TestCases in unittest

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray  added the comment:

That's not the kind of parameterization this ticket is about, though.  You are 
talking about passing data in to a test run from the command line (or other 
source), which is a different issue (though the implementations might share 
some common infrastructure).
