[issue8062] PEP 3101 string formatting missing hexadecimal separator _ for every 4 hex digits

[Mark Dickinson]

Mark Dickinson  added the comment:

I'm confused:  are you talking about producing underscores when formatting an 
integer for hexadecimal output, or allowing numeric literals to contain 
underscores?

Your perl example produces:

305441741

with not an underscore in sight.  I'm failing to understand the relevance of 
this example to your request.

[issue4180] warnings.simplefilter("always") does not make warnings always show up

[Mark Dickinson]

Mark Dickinson  added the comment:

+1 for Benjamin's patch, having just been bitten by this exact problem.

I'm trying to do unit testing, checking both that a piece of code produces a 
DeprecationWarning and that it gives the correct result, with something like:

with warnings.catch_warnings():
warnings.filterwarnings("ignore", category=DeprecationWarning)
self.assertEqual(my_func(my_args), expected_result)

with warnings.catch_warnings():
warnings.filterwarnings("error", category=DeprecationWarning)
self.assertRaises(DeprecationWarning, my_func, *my_args)

The first call still registers the warning, even though it's ignored, so the 
second assertRaises fails.  Benjamin's patch would seem to provide a way to fix 
this.

Perhaps I'm missing an obvious better way to do this.

N.B. The above is a too simple version of the real problem: it actually works 
as intended, for fragile reasons:  the "ignore"d warning is registered on 
__name__, while the "always"d warning ends up being registered on 
unittest.case, so there's no conflict.

I'm already doing that (apply the patch file by file). The patch v3 is not 
perfect, some tests are still disabled whereas they can be executed without 
tests. Give me a few days to work on a new version of the patch.

[issue5604] imp.find_module() mixes UTF8 and MBCS

[Ezio Melotti]

Ezio Melotti  added the comment:

The Linux buildbots were running the tests using ./python 
./Lib/test/regrtest.py instead of ./python -m test.regrtest and '' was missing 
from sys.path, so imp.find_module couldn't find the module.
This is now fixed in r78711 and backported r78716.
Thanks to Florent that noticed that those buildbots were using a different 
command to run the tests.

[issue6815] UnicodeDecodeError in os.path.expandvars

[Ezio Melotti]

Ezio Melotti  added the comment:

This is a shorter snippet to reproduce the issue:
import os
os.environ['TEST'] = u'äö'.encode('iso-8859-1')
os.path.expandvars(u'%TEST%a')

If the var is a non-ASCII byte string, and the string passed to expandvars() is 
Unicode, the var is decoded implicitly using the ASCII codec and the decoding 
fails.

On Python 3 the situation looks even worse:
import os
os.environ['TEST'] = 'äö'.encode('iso-8859-1');
os.path.expandvars('%TEST%a')

This snippet returns "b'\\xe4\\xf6'a".

[Martin v . Löwis]

Martin v. Löwis  added the comment:

I think the patch is incorrect. It shouldn't do any encoding conversion, but 
perform the expanding completely in Unicode strings.

For 2.x, I recommend to close this as "won't fix". Expanding a Unicode strings 
is just not supported. If it was supported, it should be supported correctly, 
i.e. allowing both environment variable names and environment variable values 
to have non-ASCII characters in them, and, on Windows, even non-MBCS characters.

[issue7319] Silence DeprecationWarning by default

[Brett Cannon]

Brett Cannon  added the comment:

So it isn't really unexpected as -Q uses DeprecationWarning which is being 
silenced by default.

So either -Q has to turn DeprecationWarning back on or a new subclass of 
DeprecationWarning (say IntegerDivisionWarning) needs to be introduced that -Q 
uses and adds to the warnings filter.

And FYI, I did backport the patch but forgot to close the issue.

Expected Behaviour : the list referenced by b , should be appended to a ,

[issue1685453] email package should work better with unicode

[Peter Kleiweg]

Peter Kleiweg  added the comment:

In Python 3.1.1, email.mime.text.MIMEText accepts an 8-bit charset, but not 
utf-8.

I think you should not have to specify a charset. All strings are unicode now, 
so I think the package should choose an appropriate charset based on the 
characters in the text, us-ascii, some iso-8859 charset, or utf-8, whatever 
fits.

[issue8082] Misleading exception when raising an object

[Daniel Eloff]

New submission from Daniel Eloff :

>>> class Foo(object):
... pass
... 
>>> raise Foo()
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "", line 1, in 
TypeError: exceptions must be classes or instances, not Foo
>>> class Foo(Exception):
... pass
... 
>>> raise Foo()
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "", line 1, in 
Foo
>>> class Foo(BaseException):
... pass
... 
>>> raise Foo()
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "", line 1, in 
Foo

It seems exceptions can only be subclasses of BaseException, the error message 
is confusing and false.

[issue8062] PEP 3101 string formatting missing hexadecimal separator _ for every 4 hex digits

[steven Michalske]

steven Michalske  added the comment:

Sorry my request is for output,  I am not requesting input.  The examples were 
for showing the use in other contexts of using an underscore as a word (4 hex 
digits) seperaror.

My assertions are from another area aside from computer languages,  but from 
documentation for components.  So I showed a documentation example and software 
examples that used or would not accept underscores.

the common pratice of using a space is not good for computer output to be used 
for parsing in following applications.

[issue7245] better Ctrl-C support in pdb (program can be resumed) (issue216067)

[Ilya Sandler]

Ilya Sandler  added the comment:

> Also, can you take a look at how the pdb unittests work and see if you
can come up with a way to unittest the KeyboardInterrupt behavior?

Yes, this is doable. In fact, I already have such tests written (unix only 
though). The tests are assert based but it should not be difficult to convert 
them to unittest. Moreover, I have many more tests for pdb written in the same 
style. 

However, these tests are not easily (and possibly not at all) integratable with 
existing test_pdb.py module. (See below for the problems). So would it be 
acceptable to have these tests as a separate module (test_pdb2.py or some 
such)? (I might also need some help with integrating the module)

Background
--

Here is the basic problem: testing/debugging a debugger is hard by itself (you 
need to deal with 2 programs at once: the one being debugged and the debugger 
which run intermittently), now throw in doctest and it becomes much harder (as 
everything you do now gets covered by another layer). And now we need to test 
signals and some of the tests will likely be platform specific which makes it 
even worse. 

In contrast, in my tests the snippets of code are written into a tmp file and 
then are fed into debugger, the debugger itself is run as a subprocess. So if a 
test fails, it can be easily rerun under debugger manually and you can  test 
for things like pdb exits and stalls.

Here is a snippet from my pdb tests (just to give an idea how they would look 
like: essentially, send a command to pdb, check the response).


  pdb=PdbTester("pdb_t_hello","""\
  import time
  for i in xrange(1):
 time.sleep(0.05)
  """)

  pdb.pdbHandle.stdin.write("c\n")
  time.sleep(0.01)
  #pdb_t_hello running, try to interrupt it
  pdb.pdbHandle.send_signal(signal.SIGINT)
  pdb.waitForPrompt()
  pdb.queryAndMatch("p i", "0")
  pdb.query("n")
  pdb.query("n")
  pdb.queryAndMatch("p i", "1")
  pdb.query("s")
  pdb.query("s")
  pdb.queryAndMatch("p i","2")
  pdb.pdbHandle.stdin.write("c\n")
  time.sleep(0.03)
  pdb.pdbHandle.send_signal(signal.SIGINT)
  pdb.waitForPrompt()
  pdb.queryAndMatch("p i","3")

[issue8065] Memory leak in readline.get_current_history_length

[Alexander Belopolsky]

Alexander Belopolsky  added the comment:

It appears that the tests that I attached fail when libedit is used.  This is 
clearly due to bugs in libedits readline emulation:

1. read_history does not update history_length

2. history_truncate_file does not preserver the history cookie ("_HiStOrY_V2_").

Does anyone know where libedit bugs should be reported?

Éric Araujo  added the comment:

Hello again

And now for something completely different: more builtin/built-in/built in 
fixes. I hope it’s okay to edit Misc/HISTORY and old Misc/NEWS entries.

Note that I fixed two unrelated typos that I noticed near “builtin” uses.

Some day I’ll do something more useful for Python.

Cheers

[issue1530559] struct.pack raises TypeError where it used to convert

[Meador Inge]

Meador Inge  added the comment:

> If anyone's interested in submitting a patch, it would be welcome.

Sure.  I saw where this was partly addressed in r78690.  The attached patch 
adds support for the '__index__' conversion that Mark
suggested.  

At first glance, the patch may seem more than what is needed.  However, most of 
the diffs are due to pulling parts of the C
implementation into a Python veneer.  This will make preprocessing work (like 
what was needs for this fix) easier now and in the future.  In addition, it 
will lay a small amount of groundwork for the changes that are needed for 
resolving issue 3132.  As that work will be simplified by having the veneer as 
well.

[issue7540] urllib2 request does not update content length after new add_data

[Senthil Kumaran]

Senthil Kumaran  added the comment:

Change is reverted from other branches too. Discussed in IRC, that changes made 
to an existing API like add_data,may break some existing applications, even if 
its done to prevent unsupported usage. 

Specifically, in mechanize's case, it was not reusing req object, but using 
add_data method more than once before req was getting submitted. This is under 
scenarios wherein code as in zope.testbrowser) is centered on the browser 
controls; any twiddle to a control could update the req object before its 
submitted. This could be changed in mechanize, but in general agreed to fact 
that changes to existing API should not result in breaking of apps.

We can address the non-reusablity of request by adding a boolean that signifies 
if a request has been used and throw an exception if one is used a second time 
( benji's suggestion). And of course clarify the supported and intended 
scenarios via documentation.

[issue5341] A selection of spelling errors and typos throughout source

[Éric Araujo]

Éric Araujo  added the comment:

Here is the path that rewraps lines longer than 80 characters.

Note that it is possible than some lines were unnecessarily rewrapped; I’m not 
really sure whether my editor displays the characters count or the index of the 
next character. Sorry about that.

I’ve noticed that some parts were wrapped to 72 characters and other to 80. 
PEP 8 tells to wrap text to 72 characters in Python files; is there a similar 
guideline for the doc anywhere?

If anyone know of a tool that can report lines longer that a certain length 
(preferably encoding-aware, i.e. counting characters and not bytes), I’d be 
glad to hear of it.

Cheers
