The distutils bdist_wininst command deprecated in Python 3.8 has been
removed. The distutils bidst_wheel command is now recommended to
distribute binary packages on Windows.
* Remove Lib/distutils/command/bdist_wininst.py
* Remove PC/bdist_wininst/ project
* Remove Lib/distutils/command/wininst-*.exe programs
* Remove all references to bdist_wininst
* Add a new _locale._get_locale_encoding() function to get the
current locale encoding.
* Modify locale.getpreferredencoding() to use it.
* Remove the _bootlocale module.
The topological sort functionality that was introduced initially in the
functools module has been moved to a new graphlib module to
better accommodate the new tools and keep the original scope of the
functools module.
This is the initial implementation of PEP 615, the zoneinfo module,
ported from the standalone reference implementation (see
https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0615/#reference-implementation for a
link, which has a more detailed commit history).
This includes (hopefully) all functional elements described in the PEP,
but documentation is found in a separate PR. This includes:
1. A pure python implementation of the ZoneInfo class
2. A C accelerated implementation of the ZoneInfo class
3. Tests with 100% branch coverage for the Python code (though C code
coverage is less than 100%).
4. A compile-time configuration option on Linux (though not on Windows)
Differences from the reference implementation:
- The module is arranged slightly differently: the accelerated module is
`_zoneinfo` rather than `zoneinfo._czoneinfo`, which also necessitates
some changes in the test support function. (Suggested by Victor
Stinner and Steve Dower.)
- The tests are arranged slightly differently and do not include the
property tests. The tests live at test/test_zoneinfo/test_zoneinfo.py
rather than test/test_zoneinfo.py or test/test_zoneinfo/__init__.py
because we may do some refactoring in the future that would likely
require this separation anyway; we may:
- include the property tests
- automatically run all the tests against both pure Python and C,
rather than manually constructing C and Python test classes (similar
to the way this works with test_datetime.py, which generates C
and Python test cases from datetimetester.py).
- This includes a compile-time configuration option on Linux (though not
on Windows); added with much help from Thomas Wouters.
- Integration into the CPython build system is obviously different from
building a standalone zoneinfo module wheel.
- This includes configuration to install the tzdata package as part of
CI, though only on the coverage jobs. Introducing a PyPI dependency as
part of the CI build was controversial, and this is seen as less of a
major change, since the coverage jobs already depend on pip and PyPI.
Additional changes that were introduced as part of this PR, most / all of
which were backported to the reference implementation:
- Fixed reference and memory leaks
With much debugging help from Pablo Galindo
- Added smoke tests ensuring that the C and Python modules are built
The import machinery can be somewhat fragile, and the "seamlessly falls
back to pure Python" nature of this module makes it so that a problem
building the C extension or a failure to import the pure Python version
might easily go unnoticed.
- Adjustments to zoneinfo.__dir__
Suggested by Petr Viktorin.
- Slight refactorings as suggested by Steve Dower.
- Removed unnecessary if check on std_abbr
Discovered this because of a missing line in branch coverage.
Update the "Makefile.pre.in" template and the "PCbuild/lib.pyproj" with the files in "Lib/test/test/test_peg_generator" so they get correctly installed along the rest of the standard library.
Having these in a separate file from the one that's named after the
module in the usual way makes it very easy to miss them when looking
for tests for these two functions.
(In fact when working recently on is_normalized, I'd been surprised to
see no tests for it here and concluded the function had evaded being
tested at all. I'd gone as far as to write up some tests myself
before I spotted this other file.)
Mostly this just means moving all the one file's code into the other,
and moving code from the module toplevel to inside the test class to
keep it tidily separate from the rest of the file's code.
There's one substantive change, which reduces by a bit the amount of
code to be moved: we drop the `x > sys.maxunicode` conditional and all
the `RangeError` logic behind it. Now if that condition ever occurs
it will cause an error at `chr(x)`, and a test failure. That's the
right result because, since PEP 393 in Python 3.3, there is no longer
such a thing as an "unsupported character".
The multiprocessing.resource_tracker replaces the multiprocessing.semaphore_tracker module. Other than semaphores, resource_tracker also tracks shared_memory segments. Patch by Pierre Glaser.
* Adds lib.pyproj file to solution so that VS with Python support can open all the files in the standard library.
* Remove unexpected solution configuration.
* Remove lib.pyproj from solution to avoid memory issues on VS 2015.
