Martin v. Löwis 6819210b9e PEP 3123: Provide forward compatibility with Python 3.0, while keeping
backwards compatibility. Add Py_Refcnt, Py_Type, Py_Size, and
PyVarObject_HEAD_INIT.

Jeremy Hylton af68c874a6 Add const to several API functions that take char *.
In C++, it's an error to pass a string literal to a char* function
without a const_cast().  Rather than require every C++ extension
module to put a cast around string literals, fix the API to state the
const-ness.

I focused on parts of the API where people usually pass literals:
PyArg_ParseTuple() and friends, Py_BuildValue(), PyMethodDef, the type
slots, etc.  Predictably, there were a large set of functions that
needed to be fixed as a result of these changes.  The most pervasive
change was to make the keyword args list passed to
PyArg_ParseTupleAndKewords() to be a const char *kwlist[].

One cast was required as a result of the changes:  A type object
mallocs the memory for its tp_doc slot and later frees it.
PyTypeObject says that tp_doc is const char *; but if the type was
created by type_new(), we know it is safe to cast to char *.

Tim Peters 59c9a645e2 SF bug [#460467] file objects should be subclassable.
Preliminary support.  What's here works, but needs fine-tuning.

Guido van Rossum b875509310 PyModule_Check() now checks for subtype of module, as it should. 2001-09-10 18:21:59 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 8586991099 REMOVED all CWI, CNRI and BeOpen copyright markings.
This should match the situation in the 1.6b1 tree.

Guido van Rossum 43466ec7b0 Add DL_IMPORT(returntype) for all officially exported functions. 1998-12-04 18:48:25 +00:00
Guido van Rossum f1dc0615e9 Add internal routine _PyModule_Clear(), which does approximately what
clear_carefully() used to do in import.c.  Differences: leave only
__builtins__ alone in the 2nd pass; and don't clear the dictionary (on
the theory that as long as there are references left to the
dictionary, those might be destructors that might expect __builtins__
to be alive when they run; and __builtins__ can't normally be part of
a cycle).

Guido van Rossum d266eb460e New permission notice, includes CNRI. 1996-10-25 14:44:06 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 051ab123b4 make the type a parameter of the DL_IMPORT macro, for Borland C 1995-02-27 10:17:52 +00:00
Guido van Rossum caa6380886 The great renaming, phase two: all header files have been updated to
use the new names exclusively, and the linker will see the new names.
Files that import "Python.h" also only see the new names.  Files that
import "allobjects.h" will continue to be able to use the old names,
due to the inclusion (in allobjects.h) of "rename2.h".

Guido van Rossum 5799b52008 Added 1995 copyright.
object.h: made sizes and refcnts signed ints.
stringobject.h: make getstrsize() signed int.
methodobject.h: add METH_VARARGS and METH_FREENAME flag bit definitions.

Guido van Rossum b6775db241 Merge alpha100 branch back to main trunk 1994-08-01 11:34:53 +00:00
Guido van Rossum a3309960a5 * Added support for X11 modules.
* Makefile: change location of FORMS library.
* posixmodule.c: turn #if 0 into #ifdef MSDOS (stuff in unistd.h or not)
* Almost all .h files: added CPP magic to avoid duplicate inclusions and
  to support inclusion from C++.
1993-07-28 09:05:47 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 9bfef44d97 * Changed all copyright messages to include 1993.
* Stubs for faster implementation of local variables (not yet finished)
* Added function name to code object.  Print it for code and function
  objects.  THIS MAKES THE .PYC FILE FORMAT INCOMPATIBLE (the version
  number has changed accordingly)
* Print address of self for built-in methods
* New internal functions getattro and setattro (getattr/setattr with
  string object arg)
* Replaced "dictobject" with more powerful "mappingobject"
* New per-type functio tp_hash to implement arbitrary object hashing,
  and hashobject() to interface to it
* Added built-in functions hash(v) and hasattr(v, 'name')
* classobject: made some functions static that accidentally weren't;
  added __hash__ special instance method to implement hash()
* Added proper comparison for built-in methods and functions
