Fred Drake 427802470a Substantially revised documentation for the zipfile module, partially based
on revised text from Jim Ahlstrom <jim@interet.com>.

This closes SourceForge bug #115681.

Fred Drake 5df72f0632 Minor stylesheet nit. 2000-10-02 17:36:27 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 1ea64ea3ab Supporting rl_library_version is more trouble than it's worth --
readline doesn't have it before readline 2.2 and there's no
compile-time way to find out which readline version is in use.

Sigh.  GNU readline sucks.

Fred Drake 3105f920bf Added Daniel Dittmar, for helping get the configuration working for
Reliant UNIX.

Fred Drake 7a40c0702e make_icon_filename(): Convenience function to turn a partial filename
into a usable filename using $ICONSERVER and
                       $IMAGE_TYPE as needed.

get_link_icon():  Function to examine a URL and return the string to use
                  to insert an icon if the link points off-site, if needed
                  and $OFF_SITE_LINK_ICON is set.

Adjusted appropriate places to use these new functions.

Guido van Rossum e3c3b27d33 Fix a bug in stack overflow error handling. This fixes half of Bug
#115555.

The error from s_push() on stack overflow was -1, which was passed
through unchanged by push(), but not tested for by push()'s caller --
which only expected positive error codes.  Fixed by changing s_push()
to return E_NOMEM on stack overflow.  (Not quite the proper error code
either, but I can't be bothered adding a new E_STACKOVERFLOW error
code in all the right places.)

Fred Drake f6791f3d12 Minor usage fix.
Add a note that some way of reliably detecting the use of KDE would be
really nice.
2000-10-02 03:42:43 +00:00
Fred Drake 3944a01713 Do not set Konquerer to be the default browser if $KDEDIR is set -- some
Linux distributions which provide both KDE and Gnome set this environment
variable even if the user is not using KDE.  We do *not* want to start
Konquerer if KDE is not running unless the user actually tells us to!
2000-10-02 03:40:51 +00:00
Fred Drake 8d3312f4d1 Add documentation and warnings for the isCallable(), isMappingType(),
isNumberType(), and isSequenceType() functions.

This closes SourceForge bug #115789.

Greg Ward 0295181fa6 Typo fix. 2000-10-02 02:25:51 +00:00
Greg Ward 73a6c942cd Added the ability to do byte-compilation at build time, currently off
by default (since compiling at install time works just fine).  Details:
  - added 'compile' and 'optimize' options
  - added 'byte_compile()' method
  - changed 'get_outputs()' so it includes bytecode files
A lot of the code added is very similar to code in install_lib.py;
would be nice to factor it out further.
2000-10-02 02:19:04 +00:00
Greg Ward 8161022d4d Added --compile, --optimize options so users have an easy way to
instruct the "install_lib" command from the command-line.
2000-10-02 02:16:04 +00:00
Greg Ward cb9c9aed01 Finished the overhaul of byte-compilation options: there's now a 6-way
choice between (compile, no-compile) * (optimize=0, optimize=1,
optimize=2).  Details:
  - added --no-compile option to complement --compile, which has
    been there for ages
  - changed --optimize (which never worked) to a value option, which
    expects 0, 1, or 2
  - renamed 'bytecompile()' method to 'byte_compile()', and beefed
    it up to handle both 'compile' and 'optimize' options
  - fix '_bytecode_filenames()' to respect the new options
2000-10-02 02:15:08 +00:00
Greg Ward 04cc88df05 Remove the temporary byte-compilation script when we're done with it. 2000-10-02 02:09:55 +00:00
Greg Ward c1acc69018 From 'run()', only call 'bytecompile()' if we actually have
pure Python modules to compile.
2000-10-01 23:50:13 +00:00
Greg Ward f217e2124a Tweaked 'byte_compile()' so it silently skips non-Python files, rather than
blowing up.

Martin v. Löwis 4b6ea798cb Don't rename Tkinter to Tk; closes bug 115714
Subclass Error from Exception.

Fred Drake 145f96eb36 my_getpagesize(): New function; returns the size of a page of memory.
Versions are defined for Windows and Unix; the Unix
                   flavor uses sysconf() to get the page size; this avoids
                   the use of getpagesize(), which is deprecated and
                   requires an additional library on some platforms
                   (specifically, Reliant UNIX).

This partially closes SourceForge bug #113797.
2000-10-01 17:50:46 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 370a29fe42 Added a zip() test where one of the arguments is an instance whose
class has no __getitem__().  This raises an AttributeError.
2000-10-01 04:28:43 +00:00
Fred Drake cc4adf27f4 Add missing "s" from format string.
This closes SourceForge patch #101714.
2000-09-30 23:59:04 +00:00
Greg Ward 0bc5953e83 Added skeletal "Building Extensions: Tips and Tricks" section. This
is where all the FAQs about extension-building will be answered.
2000-09-30 21:06:40 +00:00
Greg Ward 1df6e7b1fc Reduced the 'bytecompile()' method to a one-line wrapper around
'util.byte_compile()'.  Currently just reproduces the existing functionality
-- doesn't use any of the fancy features in the new 'byte_compile()'.
2000-09-30 20:39:09 +00:00
Greg Ward 1297b5ce67 Added 'byte_compile(): an all-singing, all-dancing wrapper around the
standard 'py_compile.compile()' function.  Laundry list of features:
  - handles standard Distutils 'force', 'verbose', 'dry_run' flags
  - handles various levels of optimization: can compile directly in
    this interpreter process, or write a temporary script that is
    then executed by a new interpreter with the appropriate flags
  - can rewrite the source filename by stripping an optional prefix
    and preprending an optional base dir.
2000-09-30 20:37:56 +00:00
Greg Ward 4752769d08 Various docstring tweaks.
Fixed 'subst_vars()' so it actually blows up like the docstring claims
  (and fixed the docstring not to claim it handles ${var}, which it
  doesn't).
2000-09-30 18:49:14 +00:00
Greg Ward b8b263b92f Reformat docstrings. 2000-09-30 18:40:42 +00:00
Greg Ward cb1f4c4d33 Standardized whitespace around function calls. 2000-09-30 18:27:54 +00:00
Greg Ward 963cd2d85d Andrew Kuchling: changed so the '_path_created' dictionary is keyed on
absolute pathnames; this lets it keep working in the face of chdir'ing
around.
2000-09-30 17:47:17 +00:00
Greg Ward 3e6d43801b Fixed 'run()' so it doesn't call 'bytecompile()' if 'install()' returned None. 2000-09-30 17:35:26 +00:00
Greg Ward e564278bfd Expect a tuple (dest_name, copied) from 'copy_file()'. 2000-09-30 17:34:50 +00:00
Marc-André Lemburg ff50ad53a9 Fix header file usage so that NULL is defined. NULL is needed by
unicodedata_db.h.
2000-09-30 17:34:31 +00:00
Greg Ward 3a5a2bd486 Changed 'build_module()' so it returns the result of 'copy_file()'
on the module file -- could be useful for subclasses overriding it.
2000-09-30 17:33:05 +00:00
Greg Ward 0d4a853109 Changed 'copy_file()' so it returns a tuple (dest_name, copied) -- hopefully,
this will please everyone (as if that's possible).
2000-09-30 17:29:35 +00:00
Greg Ward ec84c21ce2 In 'get_platform()', handle so-called POSIX systems that don't have
'uname()' -- specifically NeXTSTEP.
2000-09-30 17:09:39 +00:00
Greg Ward 64d855adca Changed to use the 'sub-commands' machinery:
- added 'sub_commands' class attr
  - added 'has_*()' predicates referenced by the sub-command list
  - rewrote 'run()' so it's a trivial loop over relevant sub-commands
2000-09-30 17:08:12 +00:00
Greg Ward 70b1fd1a99 Moved some things around for better organization. 2000-09-30 17:05:37 +00:00

Martin v. Löwis af484d5a0c Mention in the module's doc string that other functions of the socket API
appear as methods on socket objects.

elsewhere in 1.5.2.
2000-09-29 19:23:29 +00:00
Martin v. Löwis c0718eba21 Remove unused VERSION #define.

Fred Drake 0b5fb2bfc8 Add a paragraph about an optimization bug in SGI compilers which affects
complex objects, and explain how to build so that Objects/complexobject.c
is compiled without optimization.
