That's a great pity. If they would be useful to a large population
perhaps we could consider having copies hosted where they would be
available with higher bandwidth?
Who could we (the Python Software Foundation) discuss such a project with?

Arguments and a return value of a C function call when using setprofile

2010-03-15T16:56:39Z

Hi,
I'm trying to write code that will trace arguments and return values
of all function calls. Using sys.settrace with 'call' and 'return'
events works great for Python functions, but now I want to extend that
to C functions as well. Using sys.setprofile instead in theory gives
me what I need ('c_call' and 'c_return'), but I'm stuck on getting

to pass self or not to pass self

Hello,
Learning Python from the help file and online resources can leave one
with many gaps. Can someone comment on the following:
class X:
T = 1
def f1(self, arg):
print "f1, arg=%d" % arg
def f2(self, arg):
print "f2, arg=%d" % arg
def f3(self, arg):
print "f3, arg=%d" % arg

Re: Large regular expressions

There's the regex module at [link]. It'll
even release the GIL while matching on strings! :-)

Re: File existence check with partial filename

The regular expression should be ".*HV.*", although:
re.search("HV", filename)
would be better and:
"HV" in filename.upper()
would be even better, as Alf posted.

That's certainly something I'm considering for the more advanced users
Thanks :)
I guess we'd have to wait a decade or so for a PyCon here

Great resource, exactly what I needed.
So, they use this book [link] as a
guide, seems like a good choice.
I also learned about the tutor mail list:

Re: Dreaming of new generation IDE

Hello again, people
Ok, I'm feeling sorry; still, I think I made a point.
Francis, I disagree on the final balance statement about the Smalltalk
images and I thank you for your suggestions on how to use grep and
shell scripting.
I also have no problem to admit I was feeling sorry for myself.
But today I found something I think is relevant to this thread.

Re: dll in project?

2010-03-15T13:24:01Z

Okay, I got a new copy and all seems well now. The dll is found and
loaded. The functions inside the dll are not working, but that is not
Python's fault. Thanks to everyone for your help and suggestions!
