How to know, in Python, that the directory you are in is inside a symbolic link ?
I have a directory /tmp/foo/kiwi
I create a symlink /tmp/bar pointing to /tmp/foo
I enter into /tmp/bar/kiwi
the linux command pwd tells me I'm in /tmp/bar/kiwi, which is correct.
The python command prompt tells me I'm in /tmp/foo/kiwi:

Can anyone point to an example written in Python (django preferred) with ajax for cascading forms? Cascading Forms is basically forms whose field values change if and when another field value changes. Example Choose Country, and then States will change...

I'm having problems redirecting stdio of another program using subprocess module. Just reading from stdout results in hanging, and Popen.communicate() works but it closes pipes after reading/writing. What's the easiest way to implement this?
I was playing around with this on windows:

proc = subprocess.Popen('python -c...
Hello! This is a question about Python native c file _lsprof.
How does _lsprof.profile() profiler counts total time spent on a function f in a multi-threaded program if the execution of f is interrupted by another thread?
For example:
def f():
linef1
linef2
linef3
def g():
lineg1
lineg2
And at the execution we have, f...
Hey all,
I am working with a oracle database and Jython.
I can get data pulled from the database no problem.
results = statement.executeQuery("select %s from %s where column_id = '%s'", % (column, table, id))
This works fine if I want to pull one column of data.
Say I wanted to loop threw a list like this:
columns = ['column1', 'c...
Put the following into a file hello.py (and easy_install paramiko if you haven't got it):
hostname,username,password='fill','these','in'

c = paramiko.SSHClient()
c.set_missing_host_key_policy(paramiko.AutoAddPolicy())
c.connect(hostname=hostname, username=username, password=password)
i,o,e = c.exec_command('ls /')

So, I have a decimalfield that can be 3 different values. In my view,
I pass in a dictionary of values that contains the appropriate decimal
values as keys.
{% for item in booklist %}
{% for key, value in numvec.items %}
{{item.number}}
{% ifequals item.number {{key}} %}

I am doing something like this:
class Class(object):
def __init__(self):
self.var=#new instance name string#
How do I make the __ init __ method of my instance to use the instance name string for 'c'? Say in case:
c=Class()
I want c.var equal to 'c'.
Thanks for your replies, I am implementing persistence and Class is p...

Hi!
Just want to know what's the common way to react on events in python. There are several ways in other languages like callback functions, delegates, listener-structures and so on.
Is there a common way? Which default language concepts or additional modules are there and which can you recommend?

I'm developing a Django application that contains a model with a date/time field. On my local copy of the application, the admin page for that particular model shows this for the date/time field:
This is as expected. However, when I deploy to my webserver and use the application from there, I get this:

I have a long sequence of hex digits in a string, such as
000000000000484240FA063DE5D0B744ADBED63A81FAEA390000C8428640A43D5005BD44

This is probably a kinda commonly asked question but I could do with help on this. I have a list of class objects and I'm trying to figure out how to make it print an item from that class but rather than desplaying in the;
<__main__.evolutions instance at 0x01B8EA08>
but instead to show a selected attribute of a chosen object of the c...
Duplicate of: In Python, how do I get the path and name of the file that is currently executing?
I would like to find out the path to the currently executing script.
I have tried os.getcwd() but that only returns the directory I ran the script from not the actual directory the script is stored.

I have sequence of IDs I want to retrieve. It's simple:

I've seen a couple of Python IDE's (e.g. PyDev Extensions, WingIDE) that provide a debug console - an interactive terminal that runs in the context of the method where the breakpoint is. This lets you print members, call other methods and see the results, and redefine methods to try to fix bugs. Cool.
Can anyone tell me how this is impl...
How can I convert a string of bytes into an int in python?
Say like this: 'y\xcc\xa6\xbb'
I came up with a clever/stupid way of doing it:
sum(ord(c) << (i * 8) for i, c in enumerate('y\xcc\xa6\xbb'[::-1]))
I know there has to be something builtin or in the standard library that does this more simply...
This is different from conve...
I've got a wx.Toolbar and I'd like to make the buttons larger. I've searched and can't seem to find any concrete documentation on how to do this.
I'm also wondering how well this will translate across platforms; what will happen to the buttons and icons on OSX?

Python for Windows by default comes with IDLE, which is the barest-bones IDE I've ever encountered. For editing files, I'll stick to emacs, thank you very much.
However, I want to run programs in some other shell than the crappy windows command prompt, which can't be widened to more than 80 characters.
IDLE lets me run programs in i...
