Re: ctype C library call always returns 0 with Python3

Even the example in the standard library fails:
import ctypes
libc = ctypes.cdll.LoadLibrary("/lib64/libc-2.14.1.so")
print(libc.strchr("abcdef", ord("d")))
Always returns "0".
I think there may be two problems with this code:
(1) You are using a 64-bit system but, in the absence of a function
prototype for strchr, ctypes will be passing and returning 32-bit types.
To add prototype information put something like:
libc.strchr.restype = ctypes.c_char_p
libc.strchr.argtypes = [ctypes.c_char_p, c_int]
before the call of strchr().
(2) In Python3 strings are not plain sequences of bytes by default. In
your example try passing b"abcdef" instead of "abcdef".

Did the instructions for running this Flask example mention anything about not
using the standard HTTP port number (80)? I don’t know much about Flask but I
expect it runs an HTTP server in order to serve your HTML content to clients.
If it tries to use the standard port then it will likely find it is already in
use or that you do not have permission to use it.

Functions as Enum member values
Hi,
According to the enum module's documentation an Enum-based enumeration's
members can have values of any type:
"Member values can be anything: int, str, etc.."
I defined one with functions as member values. This seemed to work as long as
the functions were defined ahead of the enumeration's definition. However I
then noticed that my enumeration class was a bit weird: even although I could
reference the enumeration's members individually by name I couldn't iterate
through the members in the normal fashion - it seemed to have no members. Also,
calling type() on a member gave the result instead of the
expected .
I am using Python 3.9.5 from python.org on macOS 11.4. Below is a small test
script and its output. Are my expectations wrong or is there a problem with
Enum?
Regards,
Colin

Any reason you're not using nntplib from the Python Standard Library? It supports the STARTTLS command. If you don't want to use nntplib you could look at its code to see how it works. -- Colin -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

I'm no Tk expert but does the following do what you want? (Strictly speaking,
the parentheses in ("1234-abcd") are not wrong just unnecessary.)
#===
import tkinter as tk
from tkinter import ttk
import sys
window = tk.Tk()
window.title("Python Tkinter Text Box")
window.minsize(600,400)
def Submit():
label.configure(text= 'The new code is: ' + NewCode.get())
def ClickExit():
#This exit closes the program but the form remains and is still active.
# I want only to close the form.
print("Exiting")
#sys.exit()
window.destroy()
#OldCode = ("1234-abcd")
OldCode = "1234-abcd"
label = ttk.Label(window, text = "Enter the new code")
label.grid(column = 1, row = 1)
#NewCode = tk.StringVar()
NewCode = tk.StringVar(value=OldCode)
CodeEntered = ttk.Entry(window, width = 15, textvariable = NewCode)
CodeEntered.grid(column = 2, row = 3)
button = ttk.Button(window, text = "Submit", command = Submit)
button.grid(column= 2, row = 5)
button = ttk.Button(window, text = "Quit", command = ClickExit)
button.grid(column= 2, row = 7)
window.mainloop()
x = (NewCode.get())
print("The new code entered is: " + x)
