One can insert column(s) data into mysql with the following python commands:

import MySQLdb
db=MySQLdb.connect(host="localhost",user = "root",passwd="123",db="mydb")
c=db.cursor()
...............
...............
c.execute("""INSERT INTO StockData (ind,Name,yesterday,pricenow,perch,id) VALUES (%s,"%s","%s","%s","%s","%s")""" %(i, str(comp), str(yesterday),str(pricenow),str(perch),str(id)))
db.commit()

Without using db.commit(), the database will not get updated.
Here ind column is of type integer and rest are strings.

I was playing around with the free C++ IDE Code::Blocks.

This is the way to create a new C++ project.

Go through File->New->Project, select "Empty Project", click on "Go" and fill in the Project Name and (browse to) path.

I was having urlfetch download errors in my newsfeed aggregator India Hot News.

Modified code:

try:
   result = urlfetch.fetch(url)
except  urlfetch.Error():
   continue

This seems to work temporarily.

Earlier the code was

try:
   result = urlfetch.fetch(url)
except  Exception:
   continue

This "Exception" was working yesterday.
Gave Server Error today.

Let me see the modified code works fine or not.
This urlfetch errors are real glitches in Google App Engine.
