    ...code is still easy to understand and easy to tailor for a new platform or to add a new feature. Developing integration code with Python is fast and easy. Python's native OO approach -- something that was not available in our older integration languages -- made it easy to create reusable code with minimal effort. This project has shown the great power of Python and open source tools in general. About the Author Tom Olexa is an ICT consultant at TEMPEST, Slovakia.

    ...Python with Apache With the API in place, our next task in developing CORE was to find a useful templating module to integrate our Python code with HTML pages running on the Apache web server. After looking at a number of available Python-based templating modules, we opted to create a simple parser of our own. Our approach was to convert server-side template pages into Python servlets whose output is sent by the HTTP server to the user's browser. Although this was a fairly simple exercise, we di...

  • Download Python Sources

    ...Python Sources For most Unix systems, you must download and compile the source code (see the latest releases). The same source code archive can also be used to build the Windows and Mac versions, and is the starting point for ports to all other platforms. You can browse the sources online through the repository viewer. If you want to help with the Python Project, see the Python Developer's Guide.

    ...Python's Error Handling Improves Robustness The first iteration of PyDrone refactored the existing Perl code into more appropriate functions, classes, and modules while translating the code base into Python. Refactoring the Perl code without moving to Python would have produced comparable architectural results, but Python's explicit error handling and stronger type checking helped to considerably improve the code's robustness. The current version of PyDrone uses about 20 different external binar...

  • The Python 2.3 Method Resolution Order

    ...Python 2.2: classic classes maintain their old method resolution order, depth first and then left to right. Therefore, there is no breaking of old code for classic classes; and even if in principle there could be breaking of code for Python 2.2 new style classes, in practice the cases in which the C3 resolution order differs from the Python 2.2 method resolution order are so rare that no real breaking of code is expected. Therefore: Don't be scared! Moreover, unless you make strong use of mu...

    ...Python was a faster way to code (and re-code) the programs that controlled the production pipeline. Python Streamlines Production But Python was not designed just as a replacement for shell scripting and, as it turns out, Python enabled much more for ILM than just process control. Unlike Unix shell scripting, Python can be embedded whole as a scripting language within a larger software system. In this case, Python code can invoke specific functions of that system, even if those functions are w...

    ...code in Perl, and it was a spiky mixture of Perl and Tcl that looked even uglier than my own pure-Perl code. It was at this point I remembered the bit I had set more than six months earlier. This could be an opportunity to get some hands-on experience with Python. Of course, this brought me face to face once again with Python's pons asinorum, the significance of whitespace. This time, however, I charged ahead and roughed out some code for a handful of sample GUI elements. Oddly enough, Python's ...

Inspired by Apple's HyperCard, PythonCard was impressive in its ability to quickly and easily create a responsive cross-platform GUI.

    ...Python that we were rely on heavily for this, and which we were happy to see supported in IronPython, was the execution of cell formulae and user code in a separate instance of the underlying Python engine. This isolates the user's spreadsheet code from the running instance of the Resolver One application, preventing us from polluting each other's namespace, or from having to share global settings such as the Python recursion limit. Supporting Agile Development Python is a modern, expressive l...
