Running phyton on 50Mips RISC doable?
by Cor Nov. 1, 2001

Nov. 1, 2001

Hi, I'm trying to figure out if I should use Python for my embedded application that needs some scripting. It is an application with 50Mips Risc processor, with little (and slow) memory. So when I want to run the python interpreter on this machine, will it be terrible slow? And more inportant: how mauch memory will I need? a few K? a few hondred K? Is it difficult to port the code such that it will run on this machine? (It uses gcc compiler) I hope anybody can give me any idea about this? Thanks, Cor Jansen.

This should be done in a way that is equivalent to typing the name and options at the dos prompt. The program must not be influenced by exiting the script. Do I have to use system(), spawnv() or spawnve() or something else? Any traps? Tanks Marcus -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: File upload in python module?

Wayne Yes, there is an excellent script that can do that. It is by Tom Middleton and it does a great job. In addition, it is highly configurable. The zip file if pyuploadfile.zip and you can find it on the Python Vaults archive under CGI. Always look there and see what they have and make a Google search too and you are going to find many things.

Re: python development practices?

Be careful with the leading underscore thingie. I have more trouble with python code written by people (who don't work here) who apparantly as a last step turn _every_ attribute in their class into a _variable. I come along and want to subclass them, or make a helper class .... I'm also tired of finding 3 classes which absolutely, positively, _must_ live in the same file; especially since this is so rarely documented. Laura Creighton

You don't have the "freedom" to dictate to other people what license to put on software that _they_ write.

You weren't actually suggesting that MS *invented* the concept of reusable components, were you?

Using Python Scripts in Zope
by phillip＠transwitch.co.za Nov. 1, 2001

Nov. 1, 2001

Hi, I am a little lost as to how I can send http requests to python scripts from a form element with Zope as the webserver. I know how to do this with jsp's under a tomcat webserver. But it looks like you have to add the python scripts in the management front end - which I did, yet I still get an error when performing a simple query from a form. I used : action="/cgi-bin/crawl.py", action="/pcgi/crawl.py", action="crawl.py" still the error - can't locate the resource any ideas? Phill
