Brett Cannon 02d8454002 Issue #23014: Make importlib.abc.Loader.create_module() required when
importlib.abc.Loader.exec_module() is also defined.

Before this change, create_module() was optional **and** could return
None to trigger default semantics. This change now reduces the
options for choosing default semantics to one and in the most
backporting-friendly way (define create_module() to return None).

Nick Coghlan c216c48699 Close #19494: add urrlib.request.HTTPBasicPriorAuthHandler
This auth handler adds the Authorization header to the first
HTTP request rather than waiting for a HTTP 401 Unauthorized
response from the server as the default HTTPBasicAuthHandler
does.

This allows working with websites like https://api.github.com which do
not follow the strict interpretation of RFC, but more the dicta in the
end of section 2 of RFC 2617:

    > A client MAY preemptively send the corresponding Authorization
    > header with requests for resources in that space without receipt
    > of another challenge from the server.  Similarly, when a client
    > sends a request to a proxy, it may reuse a userid and password in
    > the Proxy-Authorization header field without receiving another
    > challenge from the proxy server. See section 4 for security
    > considerations associated with Basic authentication.

R David Murray 861470c836 #16518: Bring error messages in harmony with docs ("bytes-like object")
Some time ago we changed the docs to consistently use the term 'bytes-like
object' in all the contexts where bytes, bytearray, memoryview, etc are used.
This patch (by Ezio Melotti) completes that work by changing the error
messages that previously reported that certain types did "not support the
buffer interface" to instead say that a bytes-like object is required.  (The
glossary entry for bytes-like object references the discussion of the buffer
protocol in the docs.)

Barry approves this change, it seems safe enough to make it...

R David Murray 2539e6744b #21725: Add RFC 6531 (SMTPUTF8) support to smtpd.
Patch by Milan Oberkirch, developed as part of his 2014 GSOC project.

Note that this also fixes a bug in mock_socket ('getpeername' was returning a
simple string instead of the tuple required for IPvX protocols), a bug in
DebugServer with respect to handling binary data (should have been fixed when
decode_data was introduced, but wasn't found until this patch was written),
and a long-standing bug in DebugServer (it was printing an extra blank line at
the end of the displayed message text).

it before parsing the message.

support).

R David Murray 1976d9bf6d #15916: if there are no docstrings, make empty suite, not an error.
This makes doctest work like unittest: if the test case is empty, that
just means there are zero tests run, it's not an error.  The existing
behavior was broken, since it only gave an error if there were *no*
docstrings, and zero tests run if there were docstrings but none of them
contained tests.  So this makes it self-consistent as well.

2014-01-05 20:52:06 -05:00
R David Murray 410d320703 whatsnew: XMLPullParser, plus some doc updates.
I was confused by the text saying that read_events "iterated", since it
actually returns an iterator (that's what a generator does) that the
caller must then iterate.  So I tidied up the language.  I'm not sure
what the sentence "Events provided in a previous call to read_events()
will not be yielded again." is trying to convey, so I didn't try to fix that.

Also fixed a couple more news items.

It was discussed in issue #17460 whether or not to make the remaining

using positional parameters, but no decision was made and we are now well past

R David Murray 0e814634e5 whatsnew for gc.get_stats, plus doc tweaks.
Clarified the "At the moment" wording, and added the get_stats entry in the
module summary that Serhiy noted was missing at the end of issue 16351.

Given that pydoc lists all the function docstrings, I'm not sure that module
summary section is actually needed; but, it is probably better to address that
when the module is converted to use Argument Clinic.  In the meantime we
should keep the list complete.

Despite Serhiy's suggestion in issue18529, the emdash just looks
too long to me, at least in my browser.  This usage case is sort
of halfway between endash (connective) and emdash (pause/separator).

This means I moved the 'new expected features' section to the top of the

the body, turning the previous top level sections there into subsections.

I also added a line to the new first summary section for modulespec (pep 451).

errors when attempting to use them with the text encoding
specific convenience methods. Python 3.4 includes several
improvements to those errors, thus permitting the aliases
to be restored as well.

Serhiy Storchaka 58cf607d13 Issue #12892: The utf-16* and utf-32* codecs now reject (lone) surrogates.
The utf-16* and utf-32* encoders no longer allow surrogate code points
(U+D800-U+DFFF) to be encoded.
The utf-32* decoders no longer decode byte sequences that correspond to
surrogate code points.
The surrogatepass error handler now works with the utf-16* and utf-32* codecs.

Based on patches by Victor Stinner and Kang-Hao (Kenny) Lu.

was deemed an unnecessary risk to breaking subclasses of FileFinder to
take the special-casing out.

Brett Cannon 27e27f7ee1 Issue #18416: Have importlib.machinery.PathFinder treat '' as the cwd
and stop importlib.machinery.FileFinder treating '' as '.'.

Previous PathFinder transformed '' into '.' which led to __file__ for
modules imported from the cwd to always be relative paths. This meant
the values of the attribute were wrong as soon as the cwd changed.
This change now means that as long as the site module is run (which
makes all entries in sys.path absolute) then all values for __file__
will also be absolute unless it's for __main__ when specified by file
path in a relative way (modules imported by runpy will have an
absolute path).

Now that PathFinder is no longer treating '' as '.' it only makes
sense for FileFinder to stop doing so as well. Now no transformation
is performed for the directory given to the __init__ method.

Thanks to Madison May for the initial patch.

Victor Stinner 2fe9bac4dc Close #16742: Fix misuse of memory allocations in PyOS_Readline()
The GIL must be held to call PyMem_Malloc(), whereas PyOS_Readline() releases
the GIL to read input.

The result of the C callback PyOS_ReadlineFunctionPointer must now be a string
allocated by PyMem_RawMalloc() or PyMem_RawRealloc() (or NULL if an error
occurred), instead of a string allocated by PyMem_Malloc() or PyMem_Realloc().

Fixing this issue was required to setup a hook on PyMem_Malloc(), for example
using the tracemalloc module.

PyOS_Readline() copies the result of PyOS_ReadlineFunctionPointer() into a new
buffer allocated by PyMem_Malloc(). So the public API of PyOS_Readline() does
not change.

Brett Cannon f4375ef4d4 importlib.abc.SourceLoader.get_source() was re-raising SyntaxError and
UnicodeDecodeError as ImportError. That was over-reaching the point of
raising ImportError in get_source() (which is to signal the source
code was not found when it should have). Conflating the two exceptions
with ImportError could lead to masking errors with the source which
should be known outside of whether there was an error simply getting
the source to begin with.

Brett Cannon 8f5ac5106e Issue #15767: Touch up ModuleNotFoundError usage by import.
Forgot to raise ModuleNotFoundError when None is found in sys.modules.
This led to introducing the C function PyErr_SetImportErrorSubclass()
to make setting ModuleNotFoundError easier.

Also updated the reference docs to mention ModuleNotFoundError
appropriately. Updated the docs for ModuleNotFoundError to mention the
None in sys.modules case.

Lastly, it was noticed that PyErr_SetImportError() was not setting an
exception when returning None in one case. That issue is now fixed.
2013-06-12 23:29:18 -04:00
Brett Cannon b1611e2772 Issue #15767: Introduce ModuleNotFoundError, a subclass of
ImportError.

The exception is raised by import when a module could not be found.
Technically this is defined as no viable loader could be found for the
specified module. This includes ``from ... import`` statements so that
the module usage is consistent for all situations where import
couldn't find what was requested.

This should allow for the common idiom of::

  try:
    import something
  except ImportError:
    pass

to be updated to using ModuleNotFoundError and not accidentally mask
ImportError messages that should propagate (e.g. issues with a
loader).

This work was driven by the fact that the ``from ... import``
statement needed to be able to tell the difference between an
ImportError that simply couldn't find a module (and thus silence the
exception so that ceval can raise it) and an ImportError that
represented an actual problem.

Brett Cannon 0dbb4c7f13 Issues #18088, 18089: Introduce
importlib.abc.Loader.init_module_attrs() and implement
importlib.abc.InspectLoader.load_module().

The importlib.abc.Loader.init_module_attrs() method sets the various
attributes on the module being loaded. It is done unconditionally to
support reloading. Typically people used
importlib.util.module_for_loader, but since that's a decorator there
was no way to override it's actions, so init_module_attrs() came into
existence to allow for overriding. This is also why module_for_loader
is now pending deprecation (having its other use replaced by
importlib.util.module_to_load).

All of this allowed for importlib.abc.InspectLoader.load_module() to
be implemented. At this point you can now implement a loader with
nothing more than get_code() (which only requires get_source();
package support requires is_package()). Thanks to init_module_attrs()
the implementation of load_module() is basically a context manager
containing 2 methods calls, a call to exec(), and a return statement.

Brett Cannon 4c14b5de1c #17115,17116: Have modules initialize the __package__ and __loader__
attributes to None.

The long-term goal is for people to be able to rely on these
attributes existing and checking for None to see if they have been
set. Since import itself sets these attributes when a loader does not
the only instances when the attributes are None are from someone
overloading __import__() and not using a loader or someone creating a
module from scratch.

This patch also unifies module initialization. Before you could have
different attributes with default values depending on how the module
object was created. Now the only way to not get the same default set
of attributes is to circumvent initialization by calling
ModuleType.__new__() directly.
