Hi, I am pleased to release PySPH version 1.0a3. PySPH is an open source (BSD licensed) framework for Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) simulations. It is implemented in Python and the performance critical parts are implemented in Cython. A wide variety of SPH formulations are available and new ones can be easily added. PySPH allows users to write their high-level code in pure Python. This Python code is automatically converted to high-performance Cython which is compiled and executed. PySPH can also be configured to work seamlessly with OpenMP and MPI. Documentation: http://pysph.readthedocs.org Download: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/PySPH/ Development: http://pysph.bitbucket.org Changelog: http://pythonhosted.org/PySPH/overview.html#changelog Quick changelog --------------- - Improve the Application class to make it very easy to do a variety of things including user-defined command line arguments, adding new tools and pre/post-step callbacks. - Add a convenient pysph script to run examples, run tests and view the results. - Bundle all examples with the installation so ``pip install PySPH`` is all you need to run the examples and use the library. - Use a platform and Python specific directory to store auto-generated code. - Silence distracting compiler warnings and only show them when an error occurs. For more details see the detailed changelog here: http://pythonhosted.org/PySPH/overview.html#changelog Installation ------------ Please see the documentation above for detailed instructions.

ANN: eGenix mx Base Distribution 3.2.9 (mxDateTime, mxTextTools, etc.)
by eGenix Team: M.-A. Lemburg 27 আগস্ট, 2015

27 আগস্ট, 2015

________________________________________________________________________ ANNOUNCING eGenix.com mx Base Distribution mxDateTime, mxTextTools, mxProxy, mxURL, mxUID, mxBeeBase, mxStack, mxQueue, mxTools Version 3.2.9 Open Source Python extensions providing important and useful services for Python programmers. This announcement is also available on our web-site for online reading: http://www.egenix.com/company/news/eGenix-mx-Base-Distribution-3.2.9-GA.html ________________________________________________________________________ ABOUT The eGenix.com mx Base Distribution for Python is a collection of professional quality software tools which enhance Python's usability in many important areas such as fast text searching, date/time processing and high speed data types. The tools have a proven track record of being portable across many Unix and Windows platforms. You can write applications which use the tools on Windows and then run them on Unix platforms without change due to the consistent platform independent interfaces. Contents of the distribution: * mxDateTime - Easy to use Date/Time Library for Python * mxTextTools - Fast Text Parsing and Processing Tools for Python * mxProxy - Object Access Control for Python * mxBeeBase - On-disk B+Tree Based Database Kit for Python * mxURL - Flexible URL Data-Type for Python * mxUID - Fast Universal Identifiers for Python * mxStack - Fast and Memory-Efficient Stack Type for Python * mxQueue - Fast and Memory-Efficient Queue Type for Python * mxTools - Fast Everyday Helpers for Python The package also includes the mxSetup module, which implements our distutils based package tool chain (including the tooling for our Python web installer technology), as well as a number of helpful smaller modules in the mx.Misc subpackage, such as mx.Misc.ConfigFile for config file parsing or mx.Misc.CommandLine to quickly write command line applications in Python. All available packages have proven their stability and usefulness in many mission critical applications and various commercial settings all around the world. For more information, please see the distribution page: http://www.egenix.com/products/python/mxBase/ ________________________________________________________________________ NEWS The 3.2.9 release of the eGenix mx Base Distribution is the latest release of our open-source Python extensions. It includes these fixes and enhancements: Fixes for all Python Builds --------------------------- * Fixed the DateTime value range to only cover dates which can be represented as broken down values. On 32-bit systems, the valid range now is from -5879608-01-01 to 5879609-12-31, on 64-bit systems from -25252734927766552-01-01 to 25252734927766553-12-31.Should be enough for most needs :-) * Fixed the DateTimeDelta value range to only cover deltas which can be represented as broken down values. On 32-bit systems, the valid range now is from -2147483647:00:00:00.00 to 2147483647:00:00:00.00, on 64-bit systems from -104249991374:07:36:32.00 to 104249991374:07:36:32.00. * Fixed a segfault on Windows when using .strftime() on a DateTime object with leap seconds. mxDateTime will now raise a ValueError instead, since the Windows C runtime strftime() doesn't handle leap seconds and segfaults. * Fixed a segfault on Windows when using .strftime() with an unsupported formatting code (e.g. %f). mxDateTime will now raise a ValueError instead, since the Windows C runtime strftime() doesn't like unsupported formatting codes or lone % at the end of the format string and causes a segfault. Thanks to Barry B for reporting this. Fixes for Python Debug Builds ----------------------------- * In this patch level release, we have significantly improved the compatibility of eGenix mx Base with Python debug builds, which we previously did not support. Regular Python builds are usually not affected. * Fixed crashes of several mx Base packages when using Python debug builds, which were due to the use of free lists. Free lists are disabled for Python debug builds now. * Several mx Base packages crashed during interpreter shutdown when using Python debug builds. * mxBeeBase: Fixed a memory allocation error when using Python debug builds. * mxDateTime crashed when using Python debug builds due to the use of free lists and a non-standard way of dealing with errors inside object constructors, bypassing the logic used by debug builds to trace object allocation. Thanks to Edson Tadeu M. Manoel for bringing this to our attention. * mxTools: Fix a segfault in napply() when using Python debug builds. Installation Enhancements and Fixes (via included mxSetup) ---------------------------------------------------------- Most of these enhancements and fixes are part of the Python web installer support we added to mxSetup a while ago. If you want to learn more about this web installer technology, please see this talk on the topic: http://www.egenix.com/library/presentations/PyCon-UK-2014-Python-Web-Instal… * Fixed traceback when building pure Python packages with mxSetup's bdist_prebuilt. * mxSetup's web installer now searches for "purepython" and "anyos" tags as fallback when looking for OS dependent packages. It also adds the "anyos" tag to all pure Python packages. * Refactored the web installer in mxSetup into a class for easier customization. * Added --unicode-aware parameter support to bdist_egg when used with setuptools. * mxSetup now always produces PEP 440 compatible version numbers (using mx_version()). * Prebuilt archives created on Linux2 will now load fine on Linux3 machines. Same for FreeBSD and other systems which retain backwards compatibility. * Prebuilt archives will now also be usable on compatible platforms, e.g. ones compiled on linux2 with linux3 systems and ones for freebsd8 with freebsd9 or freebsd10. * Fixed a bug in mxSetup which caused .pyc/.pyo not to get removed when using 'pip uninstall'. * Resolved an intermittent error related to hash seeds which sometimes caused prebuilt archives to not install correctly. Thanks to Albert-Jan Roskam for reporting this. * Added Raspberry Pi Ver. 2 support to mxSetup. * Added support for bdist_wheels to allow building wheels from source or from prebuilt packages using mxSetup. * Removed a spurious AttributeError warning showing up when installing egenix-mx-base prebuilt packages on Windows systems without C compiler. eGenix mx Base Distribution 3.2.0 was release on 2012-08-28. Please see the announcement for new features in the 3.2 major release compared to earlier releases: http://www.egenix.com/company/news/eGenix-mx-Base-Distribution-3.2.0-GA.html For a full list of changes, please refer to the eGenix mx Base Distribution change log and the change logs of the various included Python packages. http://www.egenix.com/products/python/mxBase/changelog.html ________________________________________________________________________ UPGRADING We encourage all users to upgrade to this latest eGenix mx Base Distribution release.

ruamel.orderddict a C implementation of Foord/Larosa's odict and superset of standard library OrderedDict
by Anthon van der Neut 25 আগস্ট, 2015

25 আগস্ট, 2015

After once again multiple (this time only three) years, I am happy to announce version 0.4.9 of ruamel.orderddict. Main enhancement since the original release in 2007 is the addition of the viewkeys/viewitems/viewvalues methods as added to the dictionaries in Python 2.7 The package can be installed from PyPI, and wheels are available for Windows. https://pypi.python.org/pypi/ruamel.ordereddict Sources are hosted on bitbucket. --------------------- >From the blurb on ruamel.ordereddict home-page: This is an implementation of an ordered dictionary with Key Insertion Order (KIO: updates of values do not affect the position of the key), Key Value Insertion Order (KVIO, an existing key's position is removed and put at the back). Sorted dictionaries are also provided. Currently only with Key Sorted Order (KSO, no sorting function can be specified, but a transform function to be applied on the key before comparison can be supplied). It implementation is directly derived from dictobject.c and its speed is 5-10% slower than dict() and 5-9 times faster than Larosa/Foord excellent pure Python implemention. With a little helper wrapper (because of incompatibilities in the more recently implemented OrderedDict in the standard library), ruamel.ordereddict will also pass all unittests for OrderedDict.
