Organizing Python classes in modules and/or packages

I like the Java convention of having one public class per file, even if there are sometimes good reasons to put more than one public class into a single file. In my case I have alternative implementations of the same interface. But if I would place them into separate files, I'd have redundant names in the import statements (or misleading...

node with multiple images attached (drupal 6.x)

I'm creating a site where user can create a node with multiple images attached. For that matter, I have installed image attach module. I also have view and view slideshow module installed so that user can see the uploaded images attached to this particular node in slideshow style.

Why does Ruby module inclusion exclude the module's singleton class?

When classes are inherited in Ruby the singleton classes are also inherited: class A def self.hello puts "hello" end end class B < A end B.hello #=> "hello" Yet with modules, this is not the case: module M def self.goodbye puts "goodbye" end end class A include M end A.goodbye #=> NameError To get around this ...

Unbound modules in OCaml

My problem is that ocamlc and ocamlopt apear to be refusing to find third party libraries installed through apt-get. I first started having this problem when I tried to incorporate third-party modules into my own OCaml programs, and quickly wrote it off as a personal failing in understanding OCaml compilation.

Lua - Question on modules

Say I want to make a module for say a set of GUI controls, how would I create a module that would load all of the GUI scripts, and should I put those scripts as modules themselves? I was thinking of having a system like this: module("bgui", package.seeall) dofile("modules/bgui/control.lua") dofile("modules/bgui/container.lua") dofile("...

Yii modules internationalization.

Yii Doc: Modules can be nested in unlimited levels. That is, a module can contain another module which can contain yet another module. We call the former parent module while the latter child module. Child modules must be declared in the modules property of their parent module, like we declare modules in the applicati...

What is the best way to check for infinity in a Perl module?

In one of my modules, I have to deal with the concept of infinity. To date, I have been using 9**9**9 as positive infinity, and this seems to work well, is fast, and seems to be what perl's internals use as infinity. However, things get a bit dicey if a user of my module decides to use one of the big number modules (like use bigint;)...

What modules do you think would make ideal Perl 5 defaults?

I'm looking to fork Modern::Perl, it's over a year old now, and far dated. I've created nextgen.pm (now on cpan) to take it place. So far, I've added in: autodie, and indirect I assert 5.10.1, so no one trying to write modern Perl gets caught up in the mess that is 5.10.0's smart match. I've also added conditional support for Moo...

Function to corrupt kernel stack

I am currently testing the kernel back tracing mechanism ( like dump_stack and frame_unwind ). I want to know whether the kernel back tracing mechanism can still give the back trace if the kernel stack got corrupted. If not, then what would be the output in that case. Please suggest me a way so that I can corrupt the kernel stack by writ...

Does Maven support properties inheritance?

Let's say I have a property foo defined in my parent POM. Is it possible to access the "foo" propery in any of the children? To give you a bit of context, I am working on a multi-module maven project with inheritance. I did search the web and some forums for a while and could not find the answer. Many thanks in advance. ...

Make Flex 4 modules inherit style from main application

Hi, I am developing a modular Flex 4 (or more precisely AIR1.5, if that makes difference) application and encountered rather ugly problem. In the main App I have a style.css, which defines all the styles for, let's say, spark Buttons. It looks more or less like this: s|Button, .moduleButton{ font-family: "Fonter"; skin-class: Clas...

Importing assemblies into IronPython from another assembly

I have an IronPython 2.6/2.7 script I am writing which imports a lot of assemblies. In other words, at the top of the script it does this... clr.AddReference( "System.Xml" ) import System.Xml Except it doesn't do this for 1 assembly, but for 10 assemblies. Some of the modules are built-in .NET assembllies and some are assemblies I ...

Is it possible to pass parameters to a Perl module loading ?

Hello, I am currently developping a multi-environment perl script. As you all know, environment configuration juggling could be quite a pain if badly done. As my perl script must allow some command line parameters in a configuration value overload purpose, i came with the following solution : package Cfg; use strict; use warnings; my $...

Installing a module/script in Python on OSX

Hi, I am running Python 2.6.2 in Mac OSX 10.5.8. I am trying to generate scientific graphs for a publication and am experimenting with python/matplotlib to do that. Varun Hiremath created a module called plot_settings.py (link text and I am trying to figure out how to install the module so that I can import it. I'm not sure if easy_in...

What's the best technique to build scalable (extensible), maintainable, and loosely coupled software?

I have been playing around with the concept of 'module' that some mvc frameworks implement and it seems like a good solution, and also with TDD, but I think there must be something more, like a design pattern I missed (I only know a few), that will let me build applications that can grow (in code) with no limits. Any thoughts? edit : ...

How importing works. Why imported modules not inheriting other imported modules

Hello, I just "thought" I understood how importing and modules work but obviously I need more schooling. Here is an example program (just a test case of somerthing I'm doing that is much bigger in scope and scale) and a module: quick.py import gtk from quick_window import * w.show_all() gtk.main() quick_window.py w = gtk.Window()...

Will the real path.py please stand up?

There was a good module, path.py, written by Jason Orendorff. If I recall correctly, there was some discussion about adding it to the standard library then it faded away. It looks now that there are multiple outgrowths of the original one. I can find so far unipath, what looks like a forked path.py, another one, and a few others accordi...

How can I serialize and deserialize Perl data to/from database?

What is the best module or approach to serialize data into a database?
