in case the parameters are out of bounds and fixes error handling
for .count(), .startswith() and .endswith() for the case of
mixed string/Unicode objects.
This patch adds Python style index semantics to PyUnicode_Count()
indices (including the special handling of negative indices).
The patch is an extended version of patch #103249 submitted
by Michael Hudson (mwh) on SF. It also includes new test cases.
message, and tries to make the messages more consistent and helpful when
the wrong number of arguments or duplicate keyword arguments are supplied.
Comes with more tests for test_extcall.py and and an update to an error
message in test/output/test_pyexpat.
Closes SF patch #103123.
funcobject.h:
PyFunctionObject: add the func_dict slot.
funcobject.c:
PyFunction_New(): Initialize the func_dict slot to NULL.
func_getattr(): Rename to func_getattro() and change the
signature. It's more efficient to use attro methods and dig the C
string out than it is to re-convert a C string to a PyString.
Also, add support for getting the __dict__ (a.k.a. func_dict)
attribute, and for getting an arbitrary function attribute.
func_setattr(): Rename to func_setattro() and change the signature
for the same reason. Also add support for setting __dict__
(a.k.a. func_dict) and any arbitrary function attribute.
func_dealloc(): Be sure to DECREF the func_dict slot.
func_traverse(): Be sure to traverse func_dict too.
PyFunction_Type: make the necessary func_?etattro() changes.
classobject.c:
instancemethod_memberlist: Add __dict__
instancemethod_setattro(): New method to set arbitrary attributes
on methods (really the underlying im_func). Raise TypeError when
the instance is bound or when you're trying to set one of the
reserved im_* attributes.
instancemethod_getattr(): Renamed to instancemethod_getattro()
since that's what it really is. Also, added support fo getting
arbitrary attributes through the im_func.
PyMethod_Type: Do the ?etattr{,o} dance.
type. The method documentation also includes a new brief discussion
of `bound' vs. `unbound' and why setting an attr on a bound method is
a TypeError. Includes Skip's suggested text.
object.
This fixes potential overflows in xrange()'s internal calculations on
64-bit platforms. The fix is complicated because the sq_length slot
function can only return an int; we want to support
xrange(sys.maxint), which is a 64-bit quantity on most 64-bit
platforms (except Win64). The solution is hacky but the best
possible: when the range is that long, we can use it in a for loop but
we can't ask for its length (nor can we actually iterate beyond
2**31-1, because the sq_item slot function has the same restrictions
on its arguments. Fixing those restrictions is a project for another
day...
uppercase strings also when the IGNORECASE flag is set (bug #128899)

should have been a NameError. I'm checking in a change that catches
both, just to be sure -- I can't be bothered trying to understand this
code any more. :-)
This is slightly controversial, but after reading the argumentation in
the bug tracker for and against, I believe this is the right solution.
Let me know if it breaks for you, and how.
faster than the other. Should be faster for Mark Favas's 254-character
mail log lines, and *is* 3-4% quicker for my test case with much shorter
lines (but they're typical of *my* text files, and I'm tired of optimizing
for everyone else at my expense <wink> -- in fact, the only one who loses
here is Guido ...).
(bugs #115903, #115696)
This is based on a patch by Darrel Gallion. I'm not 100%
sure about this fix, but I haven't managed to come up with
any test case it cannot handle...
