<0> How do i extract just the name from '1.First Last</a>' using regexp? a simple '\n1\..*</a>' will find it but also include the stuff I don't want..
<1> regexp? Pah
<1> ask in a perl channel
<2> Hmmm, can I
<2> with some obscure form of porting and hacking
<2> wrtie an OS 100% on python?
<2> write*
<1> google "unununium"
<1> they tried that
<1> then switched development to the linux kernel
<3> Patrick`: s/tried/trying/ ?
<3> Patrick`: I thought it was an ongoing affair.
<1> I don't know how active development is
<1> but all I know is they don't use 100% python any more
<1> beastly fido?
<1> pah



<2> Hmmm, I want 100% python =P
<1> they found it had speed issues
<1> for some reason
<2> Yes, I imagine it having speed issues, but I can always do ASM modules right? =P
<1> just have "the linux kernel" as a module
<3> Yeah.
<3> Latest build is a year old.
<3> Fork them.
<2> No, that doesn't gives me that fuzzy feeling I just did something that isn't worth anyone time
<4> Any one know what this runtime error means? " module compiled against version 90504 of C-API but this version of numpy is 90500 "
<5> hi, getting a segfault in the "$ python" commandline parser thing
<2> Hmmm, did anybody implement Python in Python yet?
<5> "pypy"
<6> hello. i have a question. I have a wrapper object, which consist of constructor and __getattr__ method, which is used to relay all the function calls to some other object, but catch one particular exception in try/except construct. the object works, but the exception is not caught. it is instead propagated away. I know I call the __getattr__ method, but exception raised from within the object I relay to (using getattr(self.c,attr)) is not caugh
<6> any idea what may be wrong?
<7> ?>pasteit@jooray
<8> You're trying to catch the wrong type of exception? Or your except: is throwing something else?
<7> ?>pasteitmin@
<6> no
<6> I'm trying to catch EOFError, which is raised there
<6> I tried also generic except:
<6> with no parameters
<6> def __getattr__(self, attr):
<6> try:
<6> print 'here'
<6> r = getattr(self.c, attr)
<6> except:
<6> print 'caught'
<6> this is the function, if I call this object's method (like a.something()), then, here is printed, self.c.something() is executed correctly
<6> but if that self.c.something() raises an exception, it is not caught
<9> Anyone here know about AOP?
<6> the call trace does not even show anything about this object, only the self.c object and then <stdin> (I'm trying it from python command shell)
<6> is __getattr__ somehow special in exception propagation?
<8> Could self.c *possibly* refer to the same object? Endless recursion?
<6> no way
<6> it is created in init and is a completely different object, which does what it has to do
<9> Aspect Oriented Programming? Anyone?
<6> this cl*** has only __init__ in addition to __getattr__, which does self.c = anotherobject()
<6> and the wrapping is working correctly, except for catching exceptions
<6> the 'caught' part is never printed
<7> jooray, obviously, __getattr__ only *gets* the object. It doesn't relate to execution in any way.
<7> Now, if there's a problem getting (say, self.c doesn't have attr), an exception will be raised.
<10> Hi all
<6> TFK: I don't understand. I thought __getattr__ is a function, that is called when there's no such attribute in cl***. I want to wrap that call to another cl*** and catch it's exception (like when self.c.get_line raises EOFError, I want to catch it there)
<6> TFK: because this is the cl***, which knows what to do with the error
<11> Does the python "readline" method use the GNU Readline library?
<7> jooray, you can't, without making the code uglier. __getattr__ doesn't call get_line, does it? So it can't catch any errors raised by it.
<6> Artimus: I believe not
<6> __getattr__ calls getattr(s.c,attr), which in turn is get_line (if attr is "get_line")
<6> but it looks you are true, I just don't know how to fix it :)
<7> So? get_line is just a method. It doesn't get called until it's prepended with the magic ().
<7> Why are you using __getattr__ anyway? Why not wrap the methods you want to delegate explicitly?
<6> TFK: because there are like 60 methods
<6> TFK: each one can raise that exception
<7> Why no use inheritance?
<6> TFK: because I would have inherit 60 methods and catch EOFError in every one of them
<6> and when the underlying object changes, I would have to modify mine
<7> (1) __getattr__ is not the way to go. (2) what are you writing?
<6> TFK: I am using pympdclient2 library, which is a music playing daemon client
<6> TFK: it communicates with mpd using socket
<6> TFK: mpd can disconnect client any time (after timeout, lost network connection)



<6> TFK: I want to try to establish the connection again
<6> TFK: since it is stateless protocol, it's not a problem for me
<6> TFK: but I think I'll change the pympdclient2 library itself, not just wrap it. I just didn't want to fork the original code
<7> Handling this error seems like a job for the user, not the communication cl***.
<6> TFK: I don't want to wrap all the commands with try/except and try to establish the connection again
<6> TFK: it's a common problem that can be solved generally
<7> How?
<7> Again, it seems like a problem for the user, not the communication layer. You monitor the connection during data processing.
<6> TFK: I create a mpdconnection object
<12> How do i find the name of the current module?
<7> __name__
<6> TFK: I don't want to handle EOFError when I do conn.play()
<6> TFK: I want the play() thing to know when the socket is disconnected, reconnect and launch the play command
<7> and you have 60 similar methods?
<6> TFK: yes. search(), next(), previous(), list(), find(), ...
<6> TFK: outputs(), select_output(), ...
<7> Hmm, interesting.
<2> Hmmm, if I'm doing a byte code interpreter in python
<6> the bad thing is, they are not even methods
<6> they are grabbed from some kind of array in the library
<6> and implemented in __getattr__
<2> Should I just hardcode everything with if else or should I was time making a custom format for storing python code for each opcode? >_>
<6> (that's why I learned about it, I'm working in python for the first hour)
<2> s/was time/waste time
<6> yuriks: depends if you want to modify opcodes on the fly, or they are and always will be hardcoded
<2> Well, I don't pretend to modify opcodes...
<7> Well, one possibility is doing what you tried to do, although I still think that there should be a better way. I'll paste an example soon.
<2> But I think the latter will be easier to update?
<6> yuriks: maybe.. but maybe you'll end in quote and escape of quotes hell :)
<2> hmm.... yes....
<2> I'll just hardcode >_>
<13> jooray: __getattr__ only works when it can't find the attribute, if you do self.c.something
<13> () - you're byp***ing the self's __getattr__
<2> hmmm, what was the name of the cl*** constructor again? xD
<6> yuriks: __init__
<2> ah, right, I was in doubt if it was the cl*** name
<7> jooray, something like this: http://phpfi.com/106649
<2> Like in CPP
<6> TFK: understand
<6> TFK: so I'll create a reference to method and then call it
<6> I'll try
<7> (but not from within __getattr__, please!)
<9> Does anyone use PEAK for AOP?
<2> And is there anything better than a list for storing fixed position stuff?
<2> Like, I will have a dictionary that will map "NOP" to a list containing "has 0 arguments", and a list with the arguments, and blablabla
<2> Something less like dinamic lists, and more like arrays
<7> jooray, say, these ~60 methods, is there a convenient method of grabbing them programmatically? For example, are these all the methods of this object?
<2> Or C structs for that matter =P
<2> Is doing a cl*** just to it to act at as struct
<14> I'm new to encryption but not to programming in Python. If I want to encrypt a binary file with Python 2.4 do I need to pickle the file to a string and then encrypt it? From what I understand the encrypt() method must take a string.
<2> a bad ideia?
<7> aleutian, you can p*** myfile.read(), I think.
<7> A file is a just a stream of bytes (as is the type 'str'), "binary" or "text" or whatever s a human distiction (and a Windows quirk, to be fair).
<14> TFK - Understood. I think I was thinking too complicated. I will experiment here for a bit with read().
<2> Ok, so, is creating a cl*** just to it to act like a C struct a bad or a good ideia?
<7> yuriks, it's OK. You can also use a dictionary.
<2> Hmm, what is better? =P
<2> a dicationary seems good
<7> If you don't need anything fancy, a dict should do just fine.
<2> Ok... what IS an opcode? an name = "NOP", byte = 0, args = 3?
<2> ]I think tht is engough, right? Should be
<2> And it wasn't really necessary to ask those last 2 'questions' =-P
<7> That I don't know, I'm afraid.
<6> TFK: well, no
<6> TFK: the author of pympdclient2 is a pervert
<2> LOL
<7> lol
<6> TFK: they are implemented using __getattr__
<6> TFK: I said, that's where I learned about this ugly function :)
<7> __getattr__ is a cl*** implementation detail, shouldn't matter much.
<6> TFK: so there is no method play(), there's only a __getattr__-based implementation
<6> TFK: but yes, I can put the names to the array and somehow construct wrappers for each
<7> Hmmm.
<6> TFK: I've been working with several languages, most recently java, where everything must be predeclared, so this was a shock for me. When I saw the code, I had to grab a cup of fresh clean water
