Guido van Rossum 3fc08d23c7 Group dict[ionary] news together; and use dict() instead of
dictionary().

Guido van Rossum 3d27df0734 Correct the description of mixed multiple inheritance: the code
special-cases classic classes, it doesn't do anything about other
cases where different metaclasses are involved (except for the trivial
case where one metaclass is a subclass of the others).  Also note that
it's metaclass, not metatype.

Tim Peters 144b98dab8 More simple test cases for mixed classic+new multiple inheritance. 2001-11-14 23:56:45 +00:00
Tim Peters a91e9646e0 Changing diapers reminded Guido that he wanted to allow for some measure
of multiple inheritance from a mix of new- and classic-style classes.
This is his patch, plus a start at some test cases from me.  Will check
in more, plus a NEWS blurb, later tonight.

Jack Jansen 1062e706e5 Don't initialize tp_type statically, it won't work on Windows. Spotted
by Thomas Heller (patch 459442).

Jack Jansen 418c3b1e26 OSX tests used specific version numbers to test for new features and
used the default Darwin/* for the old code. Reversed those tests so
that compatibility code is in a switch leg with a specific version and
newer systems take the default leg.

This should allow Python to build on OSX 10.1.1 (which jumps from Darwin/1.4
to Darwin/5.1 due to a new numbering scheme).

Tim Peters 00cafa0f76 Removed print that executes only on Unix boxes; that made it impossible
to have single "expected output" file.
2001-11-13 23:39:47 +00:00
Tim Peters 5ebfd36afa CVS patch #477161: New "access" keyword for mmap, from Jay T Miller.
This gives mmap() on Windows the ability to create read-only, write-
through and copy-on-write mmaps.  A new keyword argument is introduced
because the mmap() signatures diverged between Windows and Unix, so
while they (now) both support this functionality, there wasn't a way to
spell it in a common way without introducing a new spelling gimmick.
The old spellings are still accepted, so there isn't a backward-
compatibility issue here.

Barry Warsaw afeb2a4d89 PyOS_getsig(), PyOS_setsig(): The minimal amount of work to avoid the
uninitialized memory reads reported in bug #478001.

Note that this doesn't address the following larger issues:

- Error conditions are not documented for PyOS_*sig() in the C API.

- Nothing that actually calls PyOS_*sig() in the core interpreter and
  extension modules actually /checks/ the return value of the call.

Fixing those is left as an exercise for a later day.

Barry Warsaw 135cce8718 A specific test for bug #481221, getaddrlist() failing on long
addresses.  Commented out because it still takes too long to run.

Barry Warsaw f1fd282f13 Fix for bug #481221, getaddrlist() failing on long addresses. 2001-11-13 21:30:37 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 3ca656f1be Committing the second part of patch #480902, an improved test suite
for dumbdbm.py, by Skip Montanaro.  The first half of Skip's patch has
been postponed until Py2.3 since it adds new features.

Jack Jansen c252e6304e Add the MSL C library to the set of standard libraries
linked against. Most, but not all, of it is included in
PythonCore, but extensions may want to use some of
the routines not included. Fixes a bug reported by
Tom Loredo.

Fixes problem with not detecting UTF-8 errors.
2001-11-10 13:57:55 +00:00
Jack Jansen 439eaa9f74 Fixed various problems with command-dot handling (some very old):
- Don't scan for cmd-. unless in the foreground
- Scan before switching out to other processes, not after
- don't scan if SchedParams.check_interrupt is false (!)
  - But: do scan if we're blocked on I/O

One problem remains: in the last case KeyboardInterrupt is raised
too late.

Jeremy Hylton 89c3a22a27 Add PyObject_CheckReadBuffer(), which returns true if its argument
supports the single-segment readable buffer interface.

Add documentation for this and other PyObject_XXXBuffer() calls.

Barry Warsaw 4279346a9f getnameinfo() appears to raise socket.error instead of
socket.gaierror. :( This allows test_socket to pass on a RH6.1-ish
Linux system.

Jeremy Hylton 8edd5402f0 Fix SF buf #480096: Assign to __debug__ still allowed
Easy enough to catch assignment in the compiler.  The perverse user
can still change the value of __debug__, but that may be the least he
can do.
