Hello! In my PyGTK application I currently use 'editable' to make cells editable. But since my cell contents sometimes are really really large I want to ask the user for changes in a new window when he doubleclicks on a cell. But I could not find out how to hook on double-clicks on specific cellrenderers - I don't want to edit the whole...
What is the best approach to extending the Site model in django? Creating a new model and ForeignKey the Site or there another approach that allows me to subclass the Site model? I prefer subclassing, because relationally I'm more comfortable, but I'm concerned for the impact it will have with the built-in Admin. ...
I'm trying to use python to copy a tree of files/directories. is it possible to use copytree to copy everything that ends in foo? There is an ignore_patterns patterns function, can I give it a negated regular expression? Are they supported in python? eg. copytree(src, dest, False, ignore_pattern('!*.foo')) Where ! means NOT anything...
Since Django 1.2 final is almost out, I am curious if there are already projects that use the new object level permissions / row level permissions system. [django-authority][1] which is a possible solution for Django up to 1.1 has not been updated for a while, and does not (yet) use the new permissions system. It seems to me that Django-...
I would like to add an icon to the OSX menu bar at the top of the screen using wxPython. I have tried wx.TaskBarIcon, which adds a System Tray icon in Windows, but this doesn't work - it changes the Dock icon for the app instead. Does anyone know how to do this? ...
I originally had the variable cpanel named url and the code would not return anything. Any idea why? It doesn't seem to be used by anything else, but there's gotta be something I'm overlooking. import urllib2 cpanel = 'http://www.tas-tech.com/cpanel' req = urllib2.Request(cpanel) try: handle = urllib2.urlopen(req) except IOError, e...
I am writing a python extension module that needs to link with a third-party DLL. How can I copy this DLL to the site-packages directory using distutils (i.e. in my setup.py file)? ...

Suppose I have a C(++) function taking an integer, and it is bound to (C)python with python api, so I can call it from python: import c_module c_module.f(10) now, I want to parallelize it. The problem is: how does the GIL work in this case? Suppose I have a queue of numbers to be processed, and some workers (threading.Thread) working ...
Hello, I have a thread that gets executed when some action occurs. Given the logic of the program, the thread cannot possibly be started while another instance of it is still running. Yet when I call it a second time, I get a "RuntimeError: thread already started" error. I added a check to see if it is actually alive using the Thread.is...
I am new to SQLAlchemy (and SQL, for that matter). I can't figure out how to code the idea I have in my head. I am creating a database of performance-test results. A test run consists of a test type and a number (this is class TestRun below) A test suite consists the version string of the software being tested, and one or more TestRu...
I would like to find the canonical cover or minimum number of functional dependencies in a database. For example: If you have: Table = (A,B,C) <-- these are columns: A,B,C And dependencies: A → BC B → C A → B AB → C The canonical cover (or minimum number of dependencies) is: A → B B → C Is there a program that can accomplish...
Hi, I'm doing something that's a little complicated to sum up in the title, so please bear with me. I'm writing a Python module that provides an interface to my C++ library, which provides some specialized image manipulation functionality. It would be most convenient to be able to access image buffers as CGImageRefs from Python, so they...
Hello, I have a thread which produces some data (a python list) and which shall be available for a widget that will read and display the data in the main thread. Actually, I'm using QMutex to provide access to the data, in this way: class Thread(QThread): def get_data(self): QMutexLock(self.mutex) return deepcopy(self.data) ...
I get this error when trying to take an integer and prepend "b" to it, converting it into a string: File "program.py", line 19, in getname name = "b" + num TypeError: Can't convert 'int' object to str implicitly That's related to this function: num = random.randint(1,25) name = "b" + num ...

I'...
Hi, I have a large file with numbers in the form of 6,52353753563E-7. So there's an exponent in that string. float() dies on this. While I could write custom code to pre-process the string into something float() can eat, I'm looking for the pythonic way of converting these into a float (something like a format string passed somewhere)....
Hi guys! So, I have a dictionary with almost 100,000 (key, values) pairs and the majority of the keys map to the same values. For example imagine something like that: mydict = {'a': 1, 'c': 2, 'b': 1, 'e': 2, 'd': 3, 'h': 1, 'j': 3} What I want to do, is to reverse the dictionary so that each value in mydict is going to be a key at ...
Is there a way to generate random letters in Python (like random.randint but for letters)? The range functionality of random.randint would be nice but having a generator that just outputs a random letter would be better than nothing. ...
I'm working on a python class that is being shared between two products. 90% of the functionality applies to both products. For the 10% that's different the code is littered with this kind of thing: #Start of file project = 'B' #Some line of code if project == 'A': import moduleA elif project == 'B': import moduleB #Many line...
