Fred Drake fe5a5388c3 Use the right types for a couple of fields of the type structure. 2002-03-29 22:46:04 +00:00
Fred Drake 0ffd14c9ea Started updating information about defining attributes on types. 
There's still a long way to go, but we're starting to see some real
content in the docs.
 2002-03-29 22:45:28 +00:00
Fred Drake b1af6376e9 Mark a couple of types that had not been marked. 2002-03-28 23:46:41 +00:00
Fred Drake 0f9a34da2c Added comments for more entries of the type structure in the example 
type implementation.
 2002-03-28 23:45:22 +00:00
Fred Drake 2ab0a10913 The new files included by \verbatiminput in newtypes.tex. 2002-03-28 23:32:53 +00:00
Fred Drake 81b750d467 Move some of the longer example code to external fragments, and 
include them using \verbatiminput.  This has the advantage that pages
can still break at reasonable places, and examples that go longer than
a page won't get cut off.

Make a few small markup adjustments for consistency.

Explain that PyObject_New() is not a C function but a polymorphic
beast that returns a pointer to the type that's passed as the first
arg.

Explain why type objects use the PyObject_VAR_HEAD.

Fred Drake e9fba9188e Added index entries. 2002-03-28 22:36:56 +00:00
Fred Drake 00f712ee24 Extend \verbatiminput so that the typeset version provides the same appearance 
as a verbatim environment.  (The HTML version is already fine.)
 2002-03-28 22:28:43 +00:00
Fred Drake 8d62e94761 Minor wording change. 2002-03-28 21:06:17 +00:00
Skip Montanaro bb6bbc45c0 add exception class hierarchy. This should probably be done differently, 
but at least the content is there.

Fred Drake e3a3ceb2b1 Minor consistency adjustments. 2002-03-28 12:40:45 +00:00
Fred Drake 7bf9715a8b Introduce two new flag bits that can be set in a PyMethodDef method 
descriptor, as used for the tp_methods slot of a type.  These new flag
bits are both optional, and mutually exclusive.  Most methods will not
use either.  These flags are used to create special method types which
exist in the same namespace as normal methods without having to use
tedious construction code to insert the new special method objects in
the type's tp_dict after PyType_Ready() has been called.

If METH_CLASS is specified, the method will represent a class method
like that returned by the classmethod() built-in.

If METH_STATIC is specified, the method will represent a static method
like that returned by the staticmethod() built-in.

These flags may not be used in the PyMethodDef table for modules since
these special method types are not meaningful in that case; a
ValueError will be raised if these flags are found in that context.

generate something that passes for HTML.

Walter Dörwald b25c2b0a4a [Apply SF patch #504943] 
This patch makes it possible to pass Warning instances as the first
argument to warnings.warn. In this case the category argument
will be ignored. The message text used will be str(warninginstance).

Wrap some very long lines.
 2002-03-19 14:37:44 +00:00
Fred Drake 2f31d561d5 Clarify that copy_reg.pickle() is not intended for use with "classic" classes. 
This was stated before, but a minor grammatical error made it difficult to be
sure of the meaning.
This closes SF bug #530143.

Fred Drake 0e4cd7f267 pdfTeX 0.13 and 0.14 do not agree on the name of the macro, and I will not 
change the installed version on either of the machines I use to format the
docs.  Instead, use a compatibility hack to support both versions.  This is
also better for external users of the Python styles.
 2002-03-16 04:52:36 +00:00
Fred Drake 5381588073 Revise the markup related to the grammar productions to increase the
