multithreading - Python pool.map for list of tuples -


i've got following issue. i'm trying refactor code in order process api calls using multithreading. core data simple list of tuples in following format:

lst = [('/users/sth/photo1.jpg',       '/users/sth/photo2'),       ('/users/sth/photo1.jpg',       '/users/sth/photo3'), (...)]

function use takes lst list , process through api requires pair of photos. after single number returned each pair. far, i'm using loop put tuple function , produce mentioned number. paralellize whole computation in way 1 process takes part of list , calls function tuples inside batch. trying use pool function multiprocessing module:

from multiprocessing.dummy import pool threadpool  pool = threadpool(2) results = pool.map(score_function, lst)

however, following error occurs:

ioerror: [errno 2] no such file or directory: 'u'

something strange happening here. tries treat single character tuple argument. ideas how properly?

thank you

@edit

the lack of score_function definition bad. let me update question: 

def score_function(pairs):     score_list = list()      pair in pairs:        score = findelement(target = pair[0], source = pair[1])        score_list.append([pair[0], pair[1], score])      return score_list

where findelement defined as:

def findelement(target, source):      open(source, 'rb') source_:         source_bytes = source_.read()      open(target, 'rb') target_:         target_bytes = target_.read()      score = api_request(target_bytes = target_bytes,                         source_bytes = source_bytes)     return score

your problem loop. breaks tuple individual strings. , should work:

def score_function(pairs):     score_list = list()      score = findelement(target = pairs[0], source = pairs[1])     score_list.append([pairs[0], pairs[1], score])      return score_list

you assumed score_function receive lst variable parameter. not happen. lst needs list in case, , pool.map automatically splits individual elements , feeds 1 element score_function , keeps doing until whole list has been processed workers. each call worker receives parameter 1 element supposed work on. individual elements tuples (path1, path2), , when call for on tuple, receive 1 single path (string) in loop , pair[1] second character of string.

hope helps.

android - InAppBilling registering BroadcastReceiver in AndroidManifest -

i'm implementing inapp billing in android app. works well, however, i'm trying decouple broadcast receiver activity manifest. suggestion in android's trivialdrive sample: // important: dynamically register broadcast messages updated purchases. // register receiver here instead of <receiver> in manifest // because call getpurchases() @ startup, therefore can ignore // broadcasts sent while app isn't running. // note: registering listener in activity bad idea, done here // because sample. regardless, receiver must registered after // iabhelper setup, before first call getpurchases(). currently there's class extends broadcastreceiver : public class iabbroadcastreceiver extends broadcastreceiver { /** * intent action receiver should filter for. */ public static final string action = "com.android.vending.billing.purchases_updated"; private final iabbroadcastlistener mlistener; public iabbroadcastreceiver(iabbroadcastlistener listener) { m...

python Tkinter Capturing keyboard events save as one single string -

is possible store keyboard events 1 string? code below stores 1 char , prints it. card reader or bar code reader, contains collection of character/ string not 1 character @ time. goal save char pressed text variable. from tkinter import * root = tk() def key(event): text= event.char text+= event.char print ("pressed", text) def callback(event): frame.focus_set() print ("clicked at", event.x, event.y) frame = frame(root, width=100, height=100) frame.bind("<key>", key) frame.bind("<button-1>", callback) frame.pack() root.mainloop() currently, creating text variable , everytime key() function gets called, , text stores last character typed. you can define text module level variable , , use module level text inside key function - text = '' def key(event): global text text+= event.char print("pressed", text)

sql server - Why does Linq-to-SQL add unnecessary COUNT()? -

here tables: create table customer ( cid int primary key, name varchar(32) ) create table ord ( oid int primary key, cid int foreign key references customer, address varchar(20) ) here's linq-to-sql statement: var aaa = c in db.customer select new { c, o = c.ord.tolist() }; and here's inexplicable query generated linq-to-sql: select [t0].[cid] [cid], [t0].[name] [name], [t1].[oid] [oid], [t1].[cid] [cid2], [t1].[address] [address], (select count(*) [dbo].[ord] [t2] [t2].[cid] = [t0].[cid]) [value] [dbo].[customer] [t0] left outer join [dbo].[ord] [t1] on [t1].[cid] = [t0].[cid] order [t0].[cid], [t1].[oid] i want understand how rid of count(*) part. it's entirely uncalled for! linq needs count(*) in order determine number of entries returned o = c.ord.tolist() .
