Raymond Hettinger added the comment: Discussed this with GvR. Here's a recap: For 2.6 and 3.1 which are already released, check for the _fields attribute. This is a guaranteed part of the API is not fragile. For the C structures, check for the n_fields attribute. In the future, the C API n

[issue2636] Regexp 2.7 (modifications to current re 2.2.2)

Matthew Barnett added the comment: I don't know what happened there. I didn't notice that the zip file was way too small. Here's a replacement (still called issue2636-20100222.zip). Unicode script properties are already included, at least those whose definitions at htt

[issue7196] Clarify str.split() behavior

Jack Diederich added the comment: I suggest this be closed WONTFIX. The str.split() documentation accurately describes str.split() but doesn't happen to do what the OP wanted which was list(filter(None, '00010001'.split('0'))) Instead split(sep) is the reciprocal of sep.join(), that is txt =

[issue7946] Convoy effect with I/O bound threads and New GIL

Antoine Pitrou added the comment: Here is another patch based on a slightly different approach. Instead of being explicitly triggered in I/O methods, priority requests are decided based on the computed "interactiveness" of a thread. Interactiveness itself is a simple saturated counter (increm

[issue1517495] memory leak threading or socketserver module

A.M. Kuchling added the comment: I can no longer confirm this bug, either; trying the scripts with the current trunk doesn't seem to leak. Backing out Jeffrey's r61011 didn't bring the problem back, so I'll just conclude that the problem has gotten fixed along the way somehow. -- re

[issue4617] SyntaxError when free variable name is also an exception target

Guido van Rossum added the comment: All examples so far (*) have to do with our inability to have properly nested blocks. If we did, I'd make the except clause a block, and I'd issue a syntax warning or error if a nested block shadowed a variable referenced outside it. Ditto for generator exp

[issue6886] cgi.py runs python, not python3

Jack Diederich added the comment: +0 I'm ambivalent. The script uses a reasonable default and pyhton3 is a reasonable default for the 3k branch. That said most people will have to edit the file anyway to use it: I had to chmod a+x the file and change the bang path to /usr/bin/python to get

[issue7996] concurrency problem in regrtest -jX

New submission from Antoine Pitrou : While testing GIL changes I ran against an interesting bug in regrtest when run with -j. It turns out that we can't consume a generator from two threads simultaneously. Exception in thread Thread-8: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/antoine/
