Hi,
I am new in Python World.I want to know what is mean by ``pickling''
and ``unpickling'' ?
And how can we used it?Please Give Me some links of Picking Examples.
Thanks

Pickling is the Python term for serialization. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serialization
Suppose you want to save a Python object "x" to a file...
output_file = open('my_pickle ', 'wb') # open a file
import pickle
pickle.dump(x, output_file) # write x to the file
output_file.clo se()
.... and to restore x from the file:
input_file = open('my_pickle ','rb')
x = pickle.load(inp ut_file)
input_file.clos e()

I used to use pickles a lot for making scripts start up faster by cacheing
intermediate results. On startup, I had to read and parse a bunch of large
text files and build a complicated in-memory database out of them. That
took something like 10 seconds. However, the text files very rarely
changed. To save startup time, I read the files in once, and pickled the
database in a file. On subsequent runs, I'd just read in the pickle, which
took a fraction of a second. su************* *@gmail.com wrote: Hi,

You can generally answer such questions yourself by heading to
docs.python.org and typing the relevant words into the conveniently
provided "Search" field in the upper right. With "pickling" the first
result is http://docs.python.org/lib/module-pickle.html which answers
all your questions, including a page of examples.

I've read over section 3.14.5.2 of the doc about a
zillion times, and it still makes absolutely no sense
to me. Can someone please explain it?
What I'd like to do is, basically, have the object be
pickled as None, since it represents an object in the
C world, and it doesn't make sense to pickle it at
all. How can I do that, if at all?
In particular, what does this

After unpickling the objects are not the same

Hi all,
After some research I've decided that my previous question (Confusing
problem between Tkinter.Intvar...) was headed in the wrong direction.
Partly because I think I have a greater understanding of what was
happening, and partly because pickling Tkinter widgets is an issue
that seems to have been touched on over the years but never really
acted on.
Postings back to '96 have talked about the need to pickle Tk widgets.

Hi there,
why must file be opened in "r" -mode, before loading works
with Pickling? This forces me to close the file between pickle.dump
and pickle.load. :(
Example:
-----************------
a = {'pekka': 1, 'jussi': 2}

Moin,
short question: is there any language combining the syntax, flexibility and
great programming experience of Python with static typing? Is there a
project to add static typing to Python?
Thank you,

Hi all, happy new year,
I was trying to pickle a instance of a subclass of a tuple when I ran

I rewrite my class so I can pickle it?

I've come across a limitation in unpickling certain types of complex
data structures which involve instances that override __hash__, and was
wondering if it was known (basic searches didn't seem to come up with
anything similar) and if there is a workaround for it short of
restructuring the data structures in question.
The fundamental issue rests with defining classes which override __cmp__
and __hash__ in order to be used as keys in...

Hi,
The following sample code is to pickle and unpickle an object. It works
fine with CPython, but the unpickling fails in Jython and I receive an
error stating that "A" is unsafe to unpickle (even though I believe I
have the code to make "A" safe for unpickling). What do I do wrong and
how can I fix it?
Thanks,

I have a serious problem and I hope there is some solution. It is
easier to illustrate with a simple code:
>>> class Parent(object):
__slots__=
def __init__(self, a, b):
self.A=a; self.B=b
def __getstate__(self):
return self.A, self.B
def __setstate__(self, tup):

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
