[issue13582] IDLE and pythonw.exe stderr problem

[Dev Player]

Dev Player added the comment:

I may be mistaken but I thought, as of not too long ago, that pythonw.exe is no 
longer needed by current versions. 2.7.5

[issue18350] Python 3 unittest framework broken?

[Boštjan Mejak]

New submission from Boštjan Mejak:

I fired up the test suite runtests.py of wxPython Phoenix and I get this:

File "C:\Program Files\Python 3.3.2\lib\unittest\runner.py", line 63, in 
addSuccess
self.stream.write('.')
TypeError: 'str' does not support the buffer interface

Can you confirm whether this is a bug in the unittest framework on the Python 
side or in the wxPython Phoenix source code side?

[issue5639] Support TLS SNI extension in ssl module

[Mark Kubacki]

Mark Kubacki added the comment:

Python 2.7 is still used in production. 

Given the scarcity of IPv4-addresses — and with CDNs (think: Amazon, Akamai, 
EdgeCast…) starting to offer HTTP+SSL — the need for SNI arises in order to 
avoid pitfalls such as shared certificates.

The lack of ubiquitous support for TLS SNI could cause delays in 
HTTPS-everywhere–deployments. Therefore, in the light of the latest revelations 
about mass surveillance, I'd like even to argue that this is a matter of 
security and privacy.

[issue5639] Support TLS SNI extension in ssl module

[Antoine Pitrou]

Antoine Pitrou added the comment:

Mark, thanks for the patch. However, unless exceptional situations, we don't
backport features to bugfix branches.
The next Python 2.7 version will probably not be released before 2014, so even
if your patch were integrated, widespread deployment would still be delayed
significantly. By contrast, Python 3.2 has SNI support and it was released in
February 2011.

[issue13153] IDLE crashes when pasting non-BMP unicode char on Py3

[William Schwartz]

William Schwartz added the comment:

Looks like this issue is closed, but I got IDLE to crash.

On Python 3.3.2, Windows 7, and Tk version 8.5, IDLE crashes when pasting 
\U0001F382 (Unicode birthday cake character). Below is the version string for 
the Python I'm running.

Python 3.3.2 (v3.3.2:d047928ae3f6, May 16 2013, 00:06:53) [MSC v.1600 64 bit 
(AMD64)] on win32.

According to http://docs.python.org/3.3/whatsnew/changelog.html this issue was 
fixed in Python 3.3.1 RC 1. Indeed the patch discussed above exists in the 
cpython 3.3 branch: 
http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/910ec3471d55/Modules/_tkinter.c. But IDLE 
still crashes, at least for me.

The print_stats method dumps the stats either on sys.stdout if `Stats` class is

[issue16977] argparse: mismatch between choices parsing and usage/error message

[paul j3]

paul j3 added the comment:

test_argparse.py has some "choices='abc'" cases.  

In those should "parser.parse_args(['--foo','bc'])" be considered a success or 
failure?  

The underlying issue here is that while string iteration behaves like list 
iteration, string __contains__ looks for substrings, not just one character 
that matches.  (String __contains__ also returns a TypeError if its argument is 
not a string.)

But other than removing poor examples in documentation and tests, I'm not sure 
this issue requires a change.

[issue13153] IDLE crashes when pasting non-BMP unicode char on Py3

[Terry J. Reedy]

Terry J. Reedy added the comment:

I verified problem continuing problem windows. There is only a 'crash' when 
running under pythonw, which does not happenon linux, as far as I know. When 
running on a console, the error traceback is the same as in msg145581 (with 
line numbers altered). Changing some ValueError to a TclError did not affect 
either UnicodeDecodeError or the problem of error reports crashing Idle because 
there is no stderr to send them to.

This type of crash is a generic problem addressed by #13582. The solution to 
that would solve the crash part of this issue, but not the message. I would 
like to see the 2.x message, possibly improved. Perhaps we should resurrect the 
2.x codec for processing text pasted into the shell.

As for text windows,
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
print('𐒢')
# ðﾐﾒﾢ
which is not good either.

[issue15767] add ModuleNotFoundError

[Eric Snow]

Eric Snow added the comment:

That's the crux of the issue.  If there isn't much utility outside importlib to 
distinguishing between module-not-found and other causes of ImportError, then 
there isn't much point to a new exception.  It just boils down to what the 
other potential causes of ImportError are and how much people care about them.

I keep thinking about PEP 3151 (IOError/OSError hierarchy rework) and the 
lessons we've learned about exception attributes vs. subclasses.  For 
readability and write-ability, I'd rather write this:

  try:
  from _collections import OrderedDict
  except ModuleNotFoundError:
  pass

than this:

  try:
  from _collections import OrderedDict
  except ImportError as e:
  if e.reason is not importlib.machinery.ImportReason.MODULE_NOT_FOUND:
  raise

But the relevant question is, what is the benefit (outside importlib) of either 
over this:

  try:
  from _collections import OrderedDict
  except ImportError:
  pass

[issue18355] Merge super() guide into documentation

[Russkel]

New submission from Russkel:

When looking for documentation on the correct usage on super 
(http://docs.python.org/2/library/functions.html?highlight=super#super), the 
documentation links to this rather will written blog post 
http://rhettinger.wordpress.com/2011/05/26/super-considered-super/ by Mr. 
Hettinger.

I think there is value in merging that blog post into a HOWTO and including in 
the official documentation.

I'm more than willing to create a patch if this is considered a good idea.

[issue15767] add ModuleNotFoundError

[Guido van Rossum]

Guido van Rossum added the comment:

Right.  Outside importlib there shouldn't be a need to distinguish between the 
cases (especially given that the exception works differently than its name 
suggests).

[issue18308] checkRecvmsgAddress wrong in test_socket.py (AIX failures)

[David Edelsohn]

David Edelsohn added the comment:

The patch in msg192259 probably will work on the particular AIX system runnnig 
the buildbot, but I do not believe that the patch is the correct solution for 
the problem.

scope_id 1 is not necessarily the correct link for IPv6 address ::1. The 
scope_id values are system dependent and the result could be any value 
depending on the interfaces available on the particular system running the 
test. scope_id 1 might not exist on the system, and forcing that value would 
generate an error.

I think the safest solution is not to compare scope_id when comparing addresses.

[issue16251] pickle special methods are looked up on the instance rather than the type

[Eric Snow]

Eric Snow added the comment:

> I think you are overreacting.

Yeah, maybe so. :)  I just found the problem I ran into to be really hard to 
diagnose due to how pickle does lookup, and figured it would be worth 
addressing to save someone else the same headache later.

[Jesús Cea Avión]

Jesús Cea Avión added the comment:

This is not a bugfix, but a new feature, and 2.7 is closed for new features. 
Sorry.

If you think the closing of this bug report is a mistake, reopen with your 
argument.

[issue18266] Fix test discovery for test_largefile.py

[Zachary Ware]

Zachary Ware added the comment:

Here's a stab at fixing that issue.  It works, but I don't know that it's the 
best solution.

This patch converts test_seek into setUp, and attempts to make sure the test 
file is in the same state at the beginning of each test, with a new 
tearDownClass removing the file after each implementation has been tested.  
setUp also tries not to recreate the file from scratch each time, as doing so 
would make the test take an unreasonably long time on Windows (currently the 
test takes around 5 minutes on my Windows 7 machine, creating the file twice.  
I have not yet tested this patch on Windows, but should be able to before 
Saturday).

With this change, load_tests has been removed, and the Py/C test subclasses are 
created manually.

Since this has moved from strictly test discovery fixes to a bit more of a 
refactor, I made a few other minor changes as well.  I removed the verbose 
prints and wrapped a couple of long lines, changed the filesystem test (which 
is now in setUpModule) to remove its test file, and fixed a couple of comments. 
Also, I removed 'oldhandler' from the issue490453 fix (since it was unused and 
only served to confuse me until I did some research on it), though I suppose if 
preferred, it could be saved to reset the signal handler at the end of the run. 
 Either way, that whole fix was also moved into setUpModule with other setup 
code.

This patch is against 3.3; it does not apply cleanly to default due to a 
conflict between IOError and OSError in two places.  It should merge forward 
fine, though.

[issue16468] argparse only supports iterable choices

[paul j3]

paul j3 added the comment:

I'd suggest not worrying about the default metavar in the _expand_help() 
method.  The formatted choice string created in that method is only used if the 
help line includes a '%(choices)s' string.  The programmer can easily omit that 
if he isn't happy with the expanded list.

TestHelpVariableExpansion is the only test in test_argparse.py that uses it.

Sig('--foo', choices=['a', 'b', 'c'],
help='foo %(prog)s %(default)s %(choices)s')
