Cursor navigation

[TA]

Hi,

This might be a silly question, but I was wondering how you would navigate
backwards in a PostgreSQL cursor when the Python DB-API 2.0 allows records
to be fetched in a forward-only manner? I have tried different solutions -
two of which are included here.

The first solution uses the cursor declared implicitly by the pyPgSQL
interface, but for some reason this does not work as expected.

(RH-8.0, Python-2.2.1, pyPgSQL-2.4.0, PostgreSQL-7.2.2)
>>> # First solution
>>> from pyPgSQL import PgSQL
>>> con = PgSQL.connect()
>>> con.conn.toggleShowQuery
'On'
>>> cur = con.cursor()
QUERY: BEGIN WORK
>>> cur.execute("select * from test")
QUERY: DECLARE "PgSQL_081B3B64" CURSOR FOR select * from test
QUERY: FETCH 1 FROM "PgSQL_081B3B64"
QUERY: SELECT typname, -1 , typelem FROM pg_type WHERE oid = 23
QUERY: SELECT typname, -1 , typelem FROM pg_type WHERE oid = 1043
>>> cur.execute("fetch 1 in \"%s\" " % cur.name)
QUERY: fetch 1 in "PgSQL_081B3B64"
>>> r = cur.fetchall()
QUERY: FETCH ALL FROM "PgSQL_081B3B64"
>>> r
[[2, 'name2'], [3, 'name3'], [4, 'name4'], [5, 'name5'], [6, 'name6']]

The 'fetchall()' returns the remaining five rows in the table and not just a
single row as expected.


The other solution explicitly declares another cursor.

>>> # Second solution
>>> from pyPgSQL import PgSQL
>>> con = PgSQL.connect()
>>> con.conn.toggleShowQuery
'On'
>>> cur = con.cursor()
QUERY: BEGIN WORK
>>> cur.execute("declare acursor cursor for select * from test")
QUERY: declare acursor cursor for select * from test
>>> cur.execute("fetch 1 in acursor")
QUERY: fetch 1 in acursor
QUERY: SELECT typname, -1 , typelem FROM pg_type WHERE oid = 23
QUERY: SELECT typname, -1 , typelem FROM pg_type WHERE oid = 1043
>>> r = cur.fetchall()
>>> r
[[1, 'name1']]
>>> cur.execute("fetch 1 in acursor")
QUERY: fetch 1 in acursor
>>> r = cur.fetchall()
>>> r
[[2, 'name2']]
>>> cur.execute("fetch -1 in acursor")
QUERY: fetch -1 in acursor
>>> r = cur.fetchall()
>>> r
[[1, 'name1']]

This works as expected. Only a single row is returned and it is possible to
fetch rows forwards and backwards in the cursor, but is this really the way
to do this?

If anyone can explain what I'm doing wrong or suggest another approach, it
would be much appreciated.

Yes 'cursor.scroll()' is optional and pySqlite supports it too, but pyPgSQL
does not.

Hi!


This script :

f=open(r"C:\\temporaire.exe","wb").write(base64.b64decode(data))

f=open("64exe.py","w").write(data64)


Create a script (ascii file) "64exe.py" with the exe "D:\toto.exe"
The script "64exe.py"  (re)-create  C:\temporaire.exe  and run it.

It's a little basic template, for your answer.

And then, I can't send "Y" to the stdin...

Re: How to automate user input at the command prompt?

[M�ta-MCI]

Hi!


>>> There are typically only two output streams from a command line program. 
>>> stdout and stderr... Some of the OS triggered error messages
(abort, retry, fail) might be going to stderr -- so if you were looking at 
stdout, you won't see them.

- when you use  RD TOTO/S , win show the text "Are-you sure (Y/N)?" on 
stdout, and no stderr
- when the text is send, by win, on stdout, there are no RC ; consequently, 
subprocess (or popen) don't see anything
- it's possible, with popen4, with subprocess, to merge stdout & stderr in 
the same pipe


The problem remain entire.

Python 2.5 ; Effbot console ; thank ; pb release.

[M�ta-MCI]

Hi!  (***sorry for my approximative english***)


A few months ago, I needed a console, under Windows.
After several research, I selected the console of EffBot.

Thank you very much, Fredrik Lundh, for this small tool,
quite practical and which repaired me well.


Then, Python 2.5 arrived.

Many modules/libraries was adapted to Python 2.5

But, it missed the console of EffBot.

Patiently, I visited the site of EffBot regularly.
Then, I started to corrode me the nails.
Then, I questioned myself:
 "with each new version of Python, certain libraries are never 
adapted/compiled."

For the professional developments, it is a major risk.
For (the evolution of) Python, it is an obstacle.

The rebuilding of libraries (not-standard) is not (under Windows) very easy, 
and not very standard.
To facilitate this possibility (of rebuilding) could be an objective, 
intended to improve perenniality of Python.

What do you think of that?



(
While waiting, for the console, I ended up writing my (perso) small 
module.

Therefore, THANK YOU, Fredrik, FOR NOR TO HAVE COMPILED a version for 
P-2.5,
because:
   - that made me become aware of brittleness, in time, of the external 
bookshops;
   - that forced me to write a trick of which I will be used again 
myself.

Pb console Effbot

[M�ta-MCI]

Good evening!

I installed the Console of EFFBOT (http://effbot.org/downloads/#console).
It functions well. It's a very fun/friendly tool.

Except a detail: when I send (by console.write()) more than 53200 
characters, it does not occur anything.
I circumvented the problem, with a loop which sends ranges of 5 
characters.

But, I would like to know if somebody already encountered this problem.

Re: Hardlinks on NTFS

Hi!

Here, a copy of a message send on anither newsgroup (by me).




Summary on hardlink & junction-point.

*** Sorry, this text is in french ; but command & links are good. ***

Synthèse sur les hardlinks et les points de jonction.


   - Les hardlinks sont des alias sur des fichiers.
   - Les points de jonction sont des alias sur des répertoires.



A)  Hardlink

Pour créer des hardlinks, le mieux est d'utiliser  fsutil.exe
Tapez   fsutil create hardlink  [Entrée] pour voir la syntaxe

Fsutil n'est pas fourni avec W2K, mais le fichier de XP fonctionne très
bien.

Pour connaître la liste des hardlinks, il existe   hlscan.exe  , fourni avec
le Windows-resource-kit

Quelques infos de plus, par l'aide de windows, en cherchant  "hardlink"



B)  Point de jonction

Un point de jonction permet de considérer un volume, une unité, ou un
répertoire, comme un sous-répertoire. Il s'agit alors d'un alias, avec
répercussion instantanée des modifications.

Dans un DIR, les points de jonction apparaissent avec  à la place
de 

Pour créer un point de jonction, il existe  linkd.exe  , fourni avec le
Windows-resource-kit
Linkd.exe permet aussi le suppression des points de jonction (mais RD
fonctionne aussi bien)

Pour une aide sur linkd :   linkd /?  (fallait y penser, hein!)

Un article MS sur les points de jonction :

Re: Count nb call of a function, without global var or decorator

[M�ta-MCI]

Re!

I can do :

def ff():
this=ff
try:
this.count=this.count+1
except:
this.count=1
a=1
b=2
c=a+b

ff()
fa=ff
ff()
fa()

print ff.count


But that use, inside the function, the litteral name of the function; and I 
want no use litteral name (inside)

Re: Count nb call of a function, without global var or decorator

[M�ta-MCI]

Re!

>>> why you didn't use an iterator?

If the iterator is extern (to the function), it's like decorator, or global 
var.
If it is internal, it's huge, compare to  this.count=this.count+1  (or 
this.count+=1)

Re!

Make your COM server with PyWin32  (e.g. named PCOM)

In your HTML, with JScript, you can :

open :
  try{ var pserv = new ActiveXObject("PCOM");}
  catch(error){alert('Ne trouve pas PCOM');}

call :
var vret = pserv.youfunction( par1, par2) ;


With PyWin32, all the remainder is automatic

Re: PIL + show() + Vista

[M�ta-MCI (MVP)]

Hi, Tim!

You are right, for  shimgvw.dll  (on XP / 2000, or some Vista). But 
others Vista (ou users practice) had associate  images with 
WindowsPhotoGallery.exe.

But  shimgvw.dll already exist.

I found that this line:

command = 'start "%s" /wait %s\\System32\\rundll32.exe 
%s\\System32\\shimgvw.dll ImageView_Fullscreen %s && del /f "%s" ' % 
(title,os.environ['SYSTEMROOT'],os.environ['SYSTEMROOT'],file,file)

launch a "Photo Gallery" who respect the WAIT.

For me (and my users), it's a solution.  Perhaps others PIL's users can 
read that with interest.

Have a good day.

Re: PIL + show() + Vista

[M�ta-MCI (MVP)]

Re!

I have found the problem. On Vista, the Windows-Photo-Galery (soft 
default displayer) don't wait. Even with  START /WAIT  (in Image.py & 
_showxv), it don't wait.

Then, like the preview don't wait, the (next) "DEL" run prior the end of 
the launch of the software ; and Windows-Photo-Galery don't found the 
file...

I don't have a good solution. For force view of image, it's possible to 
delete the "DEL /F %s" part ; but that will involve many BMP/temporary 
files.

Re!

I have found a (very) poor solution:

in Image.py, inside _showxv function,
replace
command = "start /wait %s && del /f %s" % (file, file)
by
command = 'start "%s" /wait "%s\\System32\\mshta.exe" "%s" && del /f 
"%s" ' % (title,os.environ['WINDIR'],file,file)

For zoom in preview, use  Ctrl+mouse_roller (good english term?)  or 
Ctrl +   Ctrl -   Ctrl 0   (keyboard)


This solution will be replace by Fredrick Lundh, when he awakes...
