migrating from python 2.4 to python 2.6

[Mark Devine]

Hi
I have a large code base that was written in python 2.4. I want to migrate
to python 2.6. Are there any tools that will aid me in this migration?

Thanks

Hi
I'm brand new to python and I was wondering if anybody knew of a easy way to 
change every character in a list into its lower case form. 

The list is like so:
commands = ['CLASS-MAP MATCH-ALL cmap1', 'MaTch Ip AnY', 'CLASS-map Match-Any 
cmap2', 'MaTch AnY', 'Policy-map policy1', 'Class cmap1', 'policy-Map policy2', 
'Service-PoLicy policy1', 'claSS cmap2']

and what I want is:
commands = ['class-map match-all cmap1', 'match ip any', 'class-map match-any 
cmap2', 'match any', 'policy-map policy1', 'class cmap1', 'policy-map policy2', 
'service-policy policy1', 'class cmap2']

Are there any defined method within any known modules to do this in one go?

Thanks in advance

Actually what I want is element 'class-map match-all cmap1' from list 1 to 
match 'class-map cmap1 (match-all)' or 'class-map cmap1 mark match-all done' in 
list 2 but not to match 'class-map cmap1'.
Each element in both lists have multiple words in them. If all the words of any 
element of the first list appear in any order within any element of the second 
list I want a match but if any of the words are missing then there is no match. 
There are far more elements in list 2 than in list 1.

Re: create lowercase strings in lists - was: (No subject)

[Mark Devine]

Thanks for the help. This is the final script:

#!/usr/bin/env python
import os
import sys
import time
import string
import pexpect
import commands


# Test if the words of list2 elements appear in any order in list1 elements
# disregarding case and parens

# Reference list
list1 = ["a b C (D)", "D A B", "A B E"]
# Test list
list2 = ["A B C D", "A B D", "A E F", "A (E) B", "A B", "E A B" ]

def normalize(text, unwanted = "()", table = 
string.maketrans(string.ascii_uppercase,string.ascii_lowercase)):
text.translate(table,unwanted)
return set(text.split())


reflist = [normalize(element) for element in list1]
print reflist

#This is the list of sets to test against


def testmember(element):
"""is element a member of the reflist, according to the above rules?"""
testelement = normalize(element)
#brute force comparison until match - depends on small reflist
for el in reflist:
if el.issuperset(testelement):
return True
return False

for element in list2:
print element, testmember(element)


the trouble is it throws up the following error for set:

$ ./test.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./test.py", line 23, in ?
reflist = [normalize(element) for element in list1]
  File "./test.py", line 20, in normalize
return set(text.split())
NameError: global name 'set' is not defined

when I checked http://docs.python.org/lib/genindex.html#letter-s

it said that
set() (built-in function) 

The python I use is the one that comes with cygwin. Does anybody know if the 
following version of python is incomplete or do I need to call built in 
functions in a different way?

Thanks. This version is the version that comes with cygwin. They must be behind.

Re: create lowercase strings in lists - was: (No subject)

[Mark Devine]

I got the script working. Thanks for all your help everyone. Trouble is its not 
showing the correct results. Here is the script and results:

#!/usr/bin/env python
import os
import sys
import time
import string
import pexpect
import commands
from sets import Set as set


# Test if the words of list2 elements appear in any order in list1 elements
# disregarding case and parens

# Reference list
list1 = ["a b C (D)", "D A B", "A B E"]
# Test list
list2 = ["A B C D", "A B D", "A E F", "A (E) B", "A B", "E A B" ]

def normalize(text, unwanted = "()", table = 
string.maketrans(string.ascii_uppercase,string.ascii_lowercase)):
text.translate(table,unwanted)
return set(text.split())

reflist = [normalize(element) for element in list1]
print reflist

#This is the list of sets to test against


def testmember(element):
"""is element a member of the reflist, according to the above rules?"""
testelement = normalize(element)
#brute force comparison until match - depends on small reflist
for el in reflist:
if el.issuperset(testelement):
return True
return False

for element in list2:
print element, testmember(element)

Here is the results:

$ ./test.py
[Set(['a', 'C', 'b', '(D)']), Set(['A', 'B', 'D']), Set(['A', 'B', 'E'])]
A B C D False
A B D True
A E F False
A (E) B False
A B True
E A B True

The results should be:

> A B C D True
> A B D True
> A E F False
> A (E) B True
> A B False
> E A B True

Re: create lowercase strings in lists - was: (No subject)

[Mark Devine]

If I use:
if el.issubset(testelement):
I get a closer anwser but the brackets cause a problem. They are optional in 
the test list so (D) in the test list is equal to D or (D) in the reference 
list.

I see from later postings you are getting closer to an answer, but 
obviously you still have to strip out the characters that you don't want

Re: create lowercase strings in lists - was: (No subject)

[Mark Devine]

Sorry for not putting a subject in the last e-mail. The function lower suited 
my case exactly. Here however is my main problem:
Given that my new list is :
[class-map match-all cmap1', 'match ip any', 'class-map match-any cmap2', 
'match any', 'policy-map policy1', 'class cmap1', 'policy-map policy2', 
'service-policy policy1', 'class cmap2']

Each element in my new list could appear in any order together within another 
larger list (list1) and I want to count how many matches occur. For example the 
larger list could have an element 'class-map cmap2 (match any)' and I want to 
match that but if only 'class-map match-any' or 'class-map cmap2' appears I 
don't want it to match. 

Can anybody help?
Is my problem clearly stated?

regular expressions in the pexpect module for python

[Mark Devine]

HiI wonder if you can help me. I am using pexpect with python to access remote machines and run commands on them. I pass commands into code like so:def cmd(self, cmd):        pp=[ "|", "]", "[", "(", ")", "$", "?", "*", ".", ":"]
        expcmd=cmd        for element in pp:            expcmd=expcmd.replace(element, "\\%s" % element)        self.spawn.setecho(False)        self.spawn.sendline(cmd)        self.spawn.expect

(expcmd)        self.spawn.expect(self.prompt)        return self.spawn.beforeThe above code is supposed to match the command, then match the prompt and then return what is in between. Since pexpect uses regular expressions to match what it sees

[Mark Devine]

HiSorry about that. Here is the full question:I wonder if you can help me. I am using pexpect with python to access remote machines and run commands on them. I pass commands into code like so:def cmd(self, cmd):
    pp=[ "|", "]", "[", "(", ")", "$", "?", "*", ".", ":"]    expcmd=cmd    for element in pp:
    expcmd=expcmd.replace(element, "\\%s" % element)    self.spawn.setecho(False)    self.spawn.sendline(cmd)    self.spawn.expect(expcmd)    self.spawn.expect(self.prompt
)    return self.spawn.beforeThe above code is supposed to match the command, then match the prompt and then return what is in between. Since pexpect uses regular expressions to match what it sees, the command needs to have certain characters backslashed. The problem is that on some remote shells hidden characters are introduced that causes the expect statement (
self.spawn.expect(expcmd)) to timeout without matching. In perl there is a way to translate any character with an ascii value of less than 32 to "" so that all hidden characters are removed. Can this be done in python? Can this be applied to the regular _expression_ used by pexpect?

http://docs.python.org/whatsnew/modules.htmlThanks, I wasn't aware of os.stat_float_times. This helps me a lot,since I can turn off the floating point times in places untilincompatible code can be fixed.

Possible, I guess, although I don't know how to find out and there'slikely nothing I could do about it even if I did.> - you are using different Python versionsPython 2.5 on both.> - you are using different file systems

urllib2.URLError: error using twill with python

[Mark Devine]

Hi
I wonder if someone could point me in the right direction. I used the
following code to access gmail but I got a
 urllib2.URLError: 
error when I ran it. I have included the Traceback

import twill, string, os
b=twill.commands.get_browser()
b.set_agent_string("Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-GB;
rv:1.8.1.14) Gecko/20080404 Firefox/2.0.0.14")
b.clear_cookies()
b.go('http://www.gmail.com')
f=b.get_form("1")
b.showforms()
f['Email']= email
f['Passwd'] =password
b.clicked(f, f)
b.submit()

When I run the code I get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
