Hi,
Is there any way to get the file descriptor on Unix or handle on Windows
associated internally with a threading.Event object? So that it can be
used in a call to select or WaitForMultipleObjects.
Thx and regards,

The GIL is highly exploitable, and much of CPython does exploit it.

Hi all,
I'm just starting to employ unit testing (I'm using doctest), and I am
uncertain how to handle writing tests where the behaviour being tested
is dependant on whether certain file paths point to actual files.
I have a class which takes, in its __init__, a list of file paths to
process. The

py.test test_sample.py
and it'll run a single test file.
Well, my driver script can do that too. I just meant
I could do "test_sample.py" and have it run the test

I was having some difficulty figuring out just what was going on with
decorators. So after a considerable amount of experimenting I was
able to take one apart in a way. It required me to take a closer look
at function def's and call's, which is something I tend to take for

Or better yet, define your own string/class exception to catch your
errors. In my code, things can break in more than a few ways. In each
