um... presumably you type "zippedfile = GzipFile(...)" and depending on
whether you are creating a new file, or extracting an existing
GzipFile. the documentation says:
> The new class instance is based on fileobj, which can be a regular file, a

so i guess in your case you would want to do "zippedfile =
GzipFile("myfile.gz")".

when you "gzip -d myfile.gz", the resultant output name might not be
"myfile". The uncompressed name can be stored in the gzip header, and
so if you provide both a fileobj argument and a filename argument to
the GzipFile constructor, it will use fileobj for the data stream and
just place filename into the header (as opposed to opening the file
"filename").

these are the same modes that are used in just about every single
programming language when it comes to opening files. these modes are
described in the Python tutorial and in the core Python documentation
about files and file I/O. It should not be surprising, therefore, that
GzipFile, which "simulates most of the methods of a file object",
should have the same semantics when it comes to file modes.
it is actually quite shocking to me that someone with 10 years of
computing experience would not know what "rb" and "rb" mean in the
context of opening files in a programming language.

you see, not everyone who uses GzipFile will be decompressing files.
sometimes they will be *compressing* file data. in this case, it's
very possible that they want to compress data going over a network
stream, or embed some gzipped into the middle of their own file format.
GzipFile doesn't make any assumptions about what the user is going to
do with the gzipped data or the file object that the Gzip module is
writing into/reading from.
> Motherfucking 90% of programers using this module really just want to

I disagree. I think a whopping (non-motherfucking) 100% of programmers
using this module want to compress or decompress file data. If someone
just wants to decompress a file, wouldn't they just do:
import os
os.system("gzip -d filename.gz")
The GzipFile module is meant to be used by folks who want to gzip or
gunzip file data in a programmatic function. It's not meant to be a
drop-in, shell-scripting replacement for the gzip command.

The traits manual is in the lib/site-packages/enthought/traits/doc
directory, named Traits2_UM.doc/.pdf. The traits UI manual/user guide
is also in there. However, what is not so obvious is that there is
also an excellent, massive set of powerpoint slides (121 pages) that
Dave Morrill put together that talks about the architecture of Traits
UI, and how to build GUIs using it. (Er, how to build them *well*,
i.e. adhering to the M-V-C pattern and maximizing code reuse.) Those

The way that this works is that _coordinate_system_changed() gets
called with the old value and the new value of self.coordinate_system.
Thus, it doesn't "return" anything; your method is a "handler" method
that gets called when the value of a particular trait gets changed.
Why do you say it should return 0 or 1? Do you mean that you want to
get the index into the list of enumeration choices? The Enum trait
type is not quite like C in this regard. In C/C++, enums are really
ints; in traits, enums are lists of values of possibly mixed type.

Re: Python component model
Edward Diener wrote: > It looks as if traits is an attempt to create a "property" in the > component terminology which I originally specified. I will take a look > at it. Traits is frighteningly similar to the requirements that you laid out in your post (the example for Skip), including delegates! I would like to point out, however, that traits is a *general* component framework for python that facilitates implementing the observer pattern and a higher level of introspection. It can be used to build applications that have no visual interfaces at all, but wish to benefit from the "reactive programming" style that componentized, event-based programming encourages. (induces?) Traits UI, which Robert only alluded to, is actually very much the sort of RAD environment you have described. It builds upon the component model, and uses introspection to automagically create nice widgets for your model, but adds mechanisms for specifying controllers, customizing behavior, and generically composing complicated forms from simpler ones. There is even a visual "builder" tool for it called VET that closely resembles Delphi/C++ Builder. (The VET itself is, of course, written using Traits UI.) Envisage, the plugin application framework, can use the traits component models and the TraitsUI interfaces to roll out very dynamic applications, whose underlying models are all live components that can be scripted, twiddled with from an embedded Python shell, etc. > Already subscribed.

Re: Python component model
Edward, This isn't in response to any specific one of the 100+ posts on this thread, but I justed wanted to encourage you to continue your investigation into Python component models and maybe looking for some common ground between them. Frequently the individual developers are too heads-down on working on their own things to do a broad survey, so I think this would be very useful indeed. I wouldn't have felt it necessary to post this except for the large number of posts along the lines of "foo.dict is introspective enough for me!". I think you might have an easier time evangelizing the principle of component-oriented programming (or "event-based", or "reactive", or whatever) if you separated it from the notions of RAD UI development. There is a very large difference between writing components and writing objects, and it seems that most people arguing "python doesn't need components" don't see this distinction. For me, it's the difference between writing "live" objects and "dead" objects. Live objects not only encapsulate implementations of an interface with some state, but they also encapsulate handling of events, i.e. responses to changes in their environment. Dead objects have methods but there has to be a function somewhere that knows which dead object to call with what parameters at exactly the right time. (The only mechanism for managing this complexity is to create ever more functions at ever higher levels of abstraction, or to have a proliferation of nebulously-defined "manager" objects.) IMHO once you cross this chasm and are able to model your problem domain with live objects that go off and automatically respond to the runtime environment and Do the Right Thing, it's very hard to go back to a dead object mindset. I can understand, however, that until one makes this leap, it might seem like an academic and useless distinction. -peter -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

The goal of any language is to enable programmers to express their intent in a form that executes correctly. Python is extremely expressive but there is a trade-off with correctness - you can easily say something that you don't mean. Unit testing is sometimes sufficient, but it can never span the infinite space of potential errors. Type-checking method signatures guarantees a certain amount of low-level correctness, and most type-checking mechanisms also serve as documentation aids. I think that with a sufficiently sophisticated type checking syntax, one can get the best of both worlds. If the type checker understood interfaces (like PyProtocols) and its syntax had the flexibility to indicate sets of allowed arguments and aggregates of allowed types/interfaces, it would cover the majority of cases without limiting expressive power.

This line is unnecessary, because weave exposes those variables inside
the local scope of your code. This also makes the braces at the top
and bottom of the code block unnecessary.

Two things:
1. You need to put curly braces around the three lines of the inner
loop.
2. You need to change "x == xlen" and "y == ylen" to "x < xlen" and "y
< ylen".
I made these modifications to your code and it runs fine on my machine

You shouldn't be afraid of doing raster graphics in Python; you'll just need to be familiar with Numpy. You can easily compose layers, mask out operations to only happen on one channel, etc., and code it all up in Python while getting C-level speed. The gotcha, if you use PIL, is that you're going to have to use tostring() and fromstring() to get the array data back and forth between numpy and PIL. An alternative is to use openGL, as others have suggested, and blit into a texture. If you use pyglet, for instance, you can use Andrew Straw's pygarrayimage module to convert a numpy array directly into a texture.

You should really look at Enthought's Traits package. It does exactly
what you are asking for, and much, much more. See:
http://code.enthought.com/projects/traits/documentation.php
http://code.enthought.com/projects/traits/examples.php
Using Traits, you could do the following:
from enthought.traits.api import *
class Child(HasTraits):
state = Enum("happy", "sad", "bawling")
class Parent(HasTraits):
child = Instance(Child)
@on_trait_change('child.state')
def handler(self):
print "new child state:", self.child.state
bob_jr = Child()
bob = Parent(child = bob_jr)
bob_jr.state = "sad"
# This would result in bob.handler() being called
(Disclosure: I work at Enthought and have been using Traits heavily
for the last 4+ years.)
