I am playing around with Python, and I've created a class in a different package from the one calling it. In this class, I've added a class method which is being called from my main function. Again, they are in separate packages. The line to call the class method is much longer than I thought it would be from the examples I've seen in...
Has anyone tried the new Python Qt binding - PySide yet? I wonder about its matureness and compatibility with PyQt. What are your experiences on this matter?

I'm working on an IDE for python, ruby and php. Never having used Smallltalk myself (even it was very popular when I was at university) I wonder if the classic Smalltalk Browser which displays only one method is really an improvment or to classical file editing or not. I myself like to have the overview of as much as possible in a cla...
When you build and install a python package, you have two choices: --home and --prefix. I never really got the difference between the two (I always use --home) but if I understood correctly one is deprecated and the other is "the way to go"™. Am I wrong ? ...
Basically, I want an infinite size (more accurately, hard-drive rather than memory bound) dict in a python program I'm writing. It seems like the tempfile and shelve modules are naturally suited for this, however, I can't see how to use them together in a safe manner. I want the tempfile to be deleted when the shelve is GCed (or at guara...
Hi, for analysis I'd have to unescape URL-encoded binary strings (non-printable characters most likely). The strings sadly come in the extended URL-encoding form, e.g. "%u616f". I want to store them in a file that then contains the raw binary values, eg. 0x61 0x6f here. How do I get this into binary data in python? (urllib.unquote onl...
I'm putting around 4 millions different keys into a python dictionary. Creating this dictionary takes about 15 minutes and consumes about 4GB memory on my machine. After dictionary is fully created, queering the dictionary is fast. I suspect that dictionary creation is so resource consuming as the dictionary is very often rehashed (as i...

I don't do tests, but I'd like to start. I have some questions : Is it ok to use the unittest module for that? From what I understand, the unittest module will run any method starting with test. if I have a separate directory for the tests ( consider a directory named tests ), how would I import the code I'm testing? Do I need to use t...

Yesterday, I moved my database (postgres 8.3) to its own server, and my Django site started refusing to load (the browser spinner would just keep spinning). It works for about 10 mintue...
My Webservice is currently returning a HTTPResponse which contains thousands of data from a mySQL database (via a Objects.filter). It's currently just displating them in a very boring way! I'm looking to organised this data in some way. What would be ideal is two things: The possibility of having a table and maybe having some kind of s...
