What is the Python API equivalent of PyErr_Print(), from the C interface? I'm assuming a call in either the sys, or traceback modules, but can't find any functions therein that make calls to PyErr_Print(). Addendum I'm after the Python call to get the same functionality as PyErr_PrintEx(), described as: Print a standard traceback to ...
Is there a way to limit the abilities of python scripts running under an embedded interpretor? Specifically I wish to prevent the scripts from doing things like the following: Importing python extension modules (ie .pyd modules), except those specifically allowed by the application. Manipulating processes in any way (ie starting new pr...

I wish to assign to a variable (a "constant"), a value that will allow that variable to only ever return True in is and == comparisons against itself. I want to avoid assigning an arbitary value such as an int or some other type on the off chance that the value I choose clashes with some other. I'm considering generating an instance of...

It seems that the compile bu...

I am reading cpython code for python 3k and I have noticed, that __missing__ is called only when dict_subscript is called, but not when PyDict_GetItem is used. What is the difference between those two methods and when each is called? If I pass an PyObject that is a subclass of dict and has __missing__ method, how can I force using it, si...
I'm trying to understand the internals of the CPython garbage collector, specifically when the destructor is called. So far, the behavior is intuitive, but the following case trips me up: Disable the GC. Create an object, then remove a reference to it. The object is destroyed and the __del__ method is called. I thought this would onl...
Hey guys! I do understand that this topic has been covered in some way at StackOverflow but I'm still not able to figure out the exact answer: can I treat IronPython as a Pythonic replacement to C#? I use CPython every day, I love the Zen :) but my current task is a Windows-only application with a complex GUI and some other features wh...
With reference to the following link: http://docs.python.org/faq/library.html#what-kinds-of-global-value-mutation-are-thread-safe I wanted to know if the following: (x, y) = (y, x) will be guaranteed atomic in cPython. (x and y are both python variables) ...

I must use a commercial Java library, and would like to do it from Python. Jython is robust and I am fine with it being a few dot releases behind. However, I would like to use NumPy as well, which obviously does not work with Jython. Options like CPype and Java numeric libraries are unappealing. The former is essentially dead. The latter...
