It doesn't make sense for such a fundamental document to have
the most obscure function listed at the top.

Vinay Sajip 6831d6bc7f Took Nick Coghlan's advice about importing warnings globally in logging, to avoid the possibility of race conditions: "This could deadlock if a thread spawned as a side effect of importing a module happens to trigger a warning. warnings is pulled into sys.modules as part of the interpreter startup - having a global 'import warnings' shouldn't have any real effect on logging's import time." 2008-12-04 20:32:18 +00:00
Gregory P. Smith 97f49f4be7 Adds a subprocess.check_call_output() function to return the output from a

Vinay Sajip 213faca204 Issue #4384: Added logging integration with warnings module using captureWarnings(). This change includes a NullHandler which does nothing; it will be of use to library developers who want to avoid the "No handlers could be found for logger XXX" message which can appear if the library user doesn't configure logging. 2008-12-03 23:22:58 +00:00

Jeffrey Yasskin fd8a1ec486 Speed up Python (according to pybench and 2to3-on-itself) by 1-2% by caching
whether any thread has tracing turned on, which saves one load instruction in
the fast_next_opcode path in PyEval_EvalFrameEx().  See issue 4477.

Jeremy Hylton 0381f48936 Send HTTP headers and message body in a single send() call.
This change addresses part of issue 4336.

Change endheaders() to take an optional message_body argument
that is sent along with the headers.  Change xmlrpclib and
httplib's other methods to use this new interface.

It is more efficient to make a single send() call, which should
get the entire client request into one packet (assuming it is
smaller than the MTU) and will avoid the long pause for delayed
ack following timeout.

Also:
- Add a comment about the buffer size for makefile().
- Extract _set_content_length() method and fix whitespace issues there.
