trying Mozilla variants.

Georg Brandl 4aef7275cb Patch #1185447: binascii.b2a_qp() now correctly quotes binary characters
with ASCII value less than 32. Also, it correctly quotes dots only if

quoting dots if they are the second character of any line.

2007-03-13 12:34:25 +00:00
Lars Gustäbel c64e40215d This is the implementation of POSIX.1-2001 (pax) format read/write
support.

The TarInfo class now contains all necessary logic to process and
create tar header data which has been moved there from the TarFile
class. The fromtarfile() method was added. The new path and linkpath
properties are aliases for the name and linkname attributes in
correspondence to the pax naming scheme.

The TarFile constructor and classmethods now accept a number of
keyword arguments which could only be set as attributes before (e.g.
dereference, ignore_zeros). The encoding and pax_headers arguments
were added for pax support. There is a new tarinfo keyword argument
that allows using subclassed TarInfo objects in TarFile.

The boolean TarFile.posix attribute is deprecated, because now three
tar formats are supported. Instead, the desired format for writing is
specified using the constants USTAR_FORMAT, GNU_FORMAT and PAX_FORMAT
as the format keyword argument. This change affects TarInfo.tobuf()
as well.

The test suite has been heavily reorganized and partially rewritten.
A new testtar.tar was added that contains sample data in many formats
from 4 different tar programs.

Some bugs and quirks that also have been fixed:
Directory names do no longer have a trailing slash in TarInfo.name or
TarFile.getnames().
Adding the same file twice does not create a hardlink file member.
The TarFile constructor does no longer need a name argument.
The TarFile._mode attribute was renamed to mode and contains either
'r', 'w' or 'a'.

Thomas Heller 2456a3c02a Bug #1651235: When a tuple was passed to a ctypes function call,
Python would crash instead of raising an error.

The crash was caused by a section of code that should have been
removed long ago, at that time ctypes had other ways to pass
parameters to function calls.

Collin Winter fb728de5f4 Add NEWS item for patch #1481079 (r54234). 2007-03-09 03:26:32 +00:00
Brett Cannon a30fcb4dae Introduce test.test_support.TransientResource. It's a context manager to
surround calls to resources that may or may not be available.  Specifying the
expected exception and attributes to be raised if the resource is not available
prevents overly broad catching of exceptions.

This is meant to help suppress spurious failures by raising
test.test_support.ResourceDenied if the exception matches.  It would probably
be good to go through the various network tests and surround the calls to catch
connection timeouts (as done with test_socket_ssl in this commit).

Jeremy Hylton c5ceb251b3 Fix crash in exec when unicode filename can't be decoded.
I can't think of an easy way to test this behavior.  It only occurs
when the file system default encoding and the interpreter default
encoding are different, such that you can open the file but not decode
its name.

Brett Cannon 971a012ce1 Update the encoding package's search function to use absolute imports when
calling __import__.  This helps make the expected search locations for encoding
modules be more explicit.

One could use an explicit value for __path__ when making the call to __import__
to force the exact location searched for encodings.  This would give the most
strict search path possible if one is worried about malicious code being
imported.  The unfortunate side-effect of that is that if __path__ was modified
on 'encodings' on purpose in a safe way it would not be picked up in future
__import__ calls.

Brett Cannon 07e1db317d Fix time.strptime's %U support. Basically rewrote the algorithm to be more
generic so that one only has to shift certain values based on whether the week
was specified to start on Monday or Sunday.  Cut out a lot of edge case code
compared to the previous version.  Also broke algorithm out into its own
function (that is private to the module).

Fixes bug #1643943 (thanks Biran Nahas for the report).

Armin Rigo 7ccbca93a2 Forward-port of r52136,52138: a review of overflow-detecting code.
* unified the way intobject, longobject and mystrtoul handle
  values around -sys.maxint-1.

* in general, trying to entierely avoid overflows in any computation
  involving signed ints or longs is extremely involved.  Fixed a few
  simple cases where a compiler might be too clever (but that's all
  guesswork).

* more overflow checks against bad data in marshal.c.

* 2.5 specific: fixed a number of places that were still confusing int
  and Py_ssize_t.  Some of them could potentially have caused
  "real-world" breakage.

* list.pop(x): fixing overflow issues on x was messy.  I just reverted
  to PyArg_ParseTuple("n"), which does the right thing.  (An obscure
  test was trying to give a Decimal to list.pop()... doesn't make
  sense any more IMHO)

* trying to write a few tests...

Neal Norwitz 3a23017bb2 Bug #1557232: fix seg fault with def f((((x)))) and def f(((x),)).
These tests should be improved.  Hopefully this fixes variations when
flipping back and forth between fpdef and fplist.

Backport candidate.

Neal Norwitz 4a8fbdb1b2 Fix %zd string formatting on Mac OS X so it prints negative numbers.
In addition to testing positive numbers, verify negative numbers work in configure.
In order to avoid compiler warnings on OS X 10.4, also change the order of the check
for the format character to use (PY_FORMAT_SIZE_T) in the sprintf format
for Py_ssize_t.  This patch changes PY_FORMAT_SIZE_T from "" to "l" if it wasn't
defined at configure time.  Need to verify the buildbot results.

Backport candidate (if everyone thinks this patch can't be improved).

Georg Brandl ec6c2dfb63 Forward-port of rev. 51857:
Building with HP's cc on HP-UX turned up a couple of problems.
_PyGILState_NoteThreadState was declared as static inconsistently.
Make it static as it's not necessary outside of this module.

Some tests failed because errno was reset to 0. (I think the tests
that failed were at least: test_fcntl and test_mailbox).
Ensure that errno doesn't change after a call to Py_END_ALLOW_THREADS.
This only affected debug builds.
2006-09-11 09:38:35 +00:00
Neal Norwitz bcc119a22c Forward port of 51850 from release25-maint branch.
As mentioned on python-dev, reverting patch #1504333 because it introduced
an infinite loop in rev 47154.

This patch also adds a test to prevent the regression.
