Tim Peters 74824584ef Added new footnote about list.sort() stability. Repaired footnote about 
using sort() with comparison functions (it made reference to the non-
existent "builtin-in function sort()").

BTW, I changed list.sort's docstring to contain the word "stable" -- the
easiest way to tell whether a particular Python version's sort *is* stable
is to look for "stable" in the docstring.  I'm not sure whether to
advertise this <wink>.

Mark Hammond 543fb35cca Replace DL_EXPORT with PyMODINIT_FUNC 2002-07-31 06:17:46 +00:00
Fred Drake 5b11bdd0ed SF patch #581414: info reader bug 
The "Matching vs. Searching" Info node is unreachable from the Info
program (but is fine in Emacs's Info mode). This patch seems to fix
it.  This is the only occurrence where the info reader fails, so
probably it could be addressed in the python docs as a workaround.
Forwarded the report to the info maintainer.

Thomas Heller 085358a3e2 New functions for extension writers on Windows: 
PyErr_SetExcFromWindowsErr(), PyErr_SetExcFromWindowsErrWithFilename().

Similar to PyErr_SetFromWindowsErrWithFilename() and
PyErr_SetFromWindowsErr(), but they allow to specify
the exception type to raise. Available on Windows.

See SF patch #576458.

Fred Drake db40afaabe Small clarifications when referring to the sys.exc_* variables so that 
readers are not given the wrong impression that they should be using those
on a regualar basis.
This closes SF bug #585598.

Michael W. Hudson 4da01ed9a8 Substantially flesh out extended slice section. I think this is probably 
done now.
 2002-07-19 15:48:56 +00:00
Michael W. Hudson f0d777c56b A few days ago, Guido said (in the thread "[Python-Dev] Python 
version of PySlice_GetIndicesEx"):

> OK.  Michael, if you want to check in indices(), go ahead.

Then I did what was needed, but didn't check it in.  Here it is.

Fred Drake eab5f8a43d Remove unused variable. 2002-07-09 03:24:32 +00:00
Tim Peters 7c321a80f9 The Py_REF_DEBUG/COUNT_ALLOCS/Py_TRACE_REFS macro minefield: added 
more trivial lexical helper macros so that uses of these guys expand
to nothing at all when they're not enabled.  This should help sub-
standard compilers that can't do a good job of optimizing away the
previous "(void)0" expressions.

Py_DECREF:  There's only one definition of this now.  Yay!  That
was that last one in the family defined multiple times in an #ifdef
maze.

Py_FatalError():  Changed the char* signature to const char*.

_Py_NegativeRefcount():  New helper function for the Py_REF_DEBUG
expansion of Py_DECREF.  Calling an external function cuts down on
the volume of generated code.  The previous inline expansion of abort()
didn't work as intended on Windows (the program often kept going, and
the error msg scrolled off the screen unseen).  _Py_NegativeRefcount
calls Py_FatalError instead, which captures our best knowledge of
how to abort effectively across platforms.

Fred Drake 82bac5952f Fixed a typo and updated information about using the Times fonts when 
formatting PostScript documents.  Reported by Dave Kuhlman.
 2002-07-08 14:10:41 +00:00
Fred Drake 388fba8504 Added font-setting line (and associated comments) to the A4 version of 
this file; the lack of this was causing the A4 version of tutorial to
use really bad Type 3 fonts instead of Type 1 fonts, which also
bloated the file size substantially.

I thought there was a SourceForge bug for this, but couldn't find it.
