[issue6309] Tix needs TCL package require statement

2009-06-18 Thread Erik Antelman 

New submission from Erik Antelman :

For at least Tix.ComboBox it appears to be necessary to invoke the TCL
package loading explicitly with:
   root.tk.eval('package require Tix')

This was demonstrated on:
Python 2.6.2 (r262:71605, Apr 14 2009, 22:40:02) [MSC v.1500 32 bit
(Intel)] on win32

[issue6309] Tix needs TCL package require statement

2009-06-26 Thread Erik Antelman 

Erik Antelman  added the comment:

Documentation gives proper usage of Tix to be replacing Tkinter.Tk()
with Tix.Tk(). This solves the problem. 

I think this was an RTFM issue.

Erik Antelman  added the comment:

BTW: It should be given to the future searchers, that the mistake
results in the following error:
_tkinter.TclError: invalid command name "tixComboBox"

The solution is simple:

Documentation gives proper usage of Tix to be replacing Tkinter.Tk()
with Tix.Tk(). This solves the problem. 

I think this was an RTFM issue.

[issue4749] Issue with RotatingFileHandler logging handler on Windows

2009-07-01 Thread Erik Antelman 

Erik Antelman  added the comment:

The really annoying this about handle inheritance is that even if a 
subprocess is never referencing or using logging there can be an open 
file handle conflict due to the default inheratence.

Another tack from modifying Popen, 

I looked at the forking.py of multiprocessing and observed the 
techniques for changing the inheratance attribute of files handles 
using the _subprocess wrapper to the NT DuplicateHandle call.

Then by replacing the _open of the FileHandler to ensure handles are 
open non-inheritable I can ensure that log files are not inherited. 
This preserves the behavior of everything else. 

I attached the NT/Multiprocessing safe version of a RotatingFileHandler 
class
