Walter Dörwald 69652035bc SF patch #998993: The UTF-8 and the UTF-16 stateful decoders now support
decoding incomplete input (when the input stream is temporarily exhausted).
codecs.StreamReader now implements buffering, which enables proper
readline support for the UTF-16 decoders. codecs.StreamReader.read()
has a new argument chars which specifies the number of characters to
return. codecs.StreamReader.readline() and codecs.StreamReader.readlines()
have a new argument keepends. Trailing "\n"s will be stripped from the lines
if keepends is false. Added C APIs PyUnicode_DecodeUTF8Stateful and
PyUnicode_DecodeUTF16Stateful.

Andrew M. Kuchling 4eb1a00cc1 [Patch #1003861 from Dima Dorfman] Fix markup in concrete.tex:
PyObject* o -> PyObject *o to be consistent with the
rest of the file
- Correct markup for Py_True
- Remove duplicate description of PyBool_Check

Hye-Shik Chang e9ddfbb412 SF #989185: Drop unicode.iswide() and unicode.width() and add
unicodedata.east_asian_width().  You can still implement your own
simple width() function using it like this:
    def width(u):
        w = 0
        for c in unicodedata.normalize('NFC', u):
            cwidth = unicodedata.east_asian_width(c)
            if cwidth in ('W', 'F'): w += 2
            else: w += 1
        return w

Thomas Heller fe0808382b Fix an uncorrect function prototype.
Will backport to release23-maint.

BTW: Shouldn't it read PY_LONG_LONG instead of 'long long' ?

Tim Peters 8ff9f9f4aa Supply missing word in new datetime docs, aggravated by copy-paste-edit. 2004-07-17 01:42:26 +00:00
Tim Peters 183dabcd73 SF patch 986010: add missing doc for datetime C API, from
Anthony Tuininga.

This is a derived patch, taking the opportunity to add some organization
to the now-large pile of datetime-related macros, and to factor out
tedious repeated text.

Also improved some clumsy wording in NEWS.

Tim Peters 9ddf40b4e1 SF patch 876130: add C API to datetime module, from Anthony Tuininga.
The LaTeX is untested (well, so is the new API, for that matter).
Note that I also changed NULL to get spelled consistently in concrete.tex.
If that was a wrong thing to do, Fred should yell at me.

Hye-Shik Chang 974ed7cfa5 - SF #962502: Add two more methods for unicode type; width() and
iswide() for east asian width manipulation. (Inspired by David
Goodger, Reviewed by Martin v. Loewis)
- Move _PyUnicode_TypeRecord.flags to the end of the struct so that
no padding is added for UCS-4 builds. (Suggested by Martin v. Loewis)

Andrew MacIntyre f72af655c5 At 2.2, the Py<type>_Check() family of API functions (macros) changed
semantics to include subtypes.  Most concrete object APIs then had
a Py<type>_CheckExact() macro added to test for an object's type
not including subtypes.

The PyDict_CheckExact() macro wasn't created at that time, so I've added
it for API completeness/symmetry - even though nobody has complained
about its absence in the time since 2.2 was released.

Not a backport candidate.

Andrew MacIntyre 13cd8898d2 The semantics of PyList_Check() and PyDict_Check() changed at 2.2, along
with most other concrete object checks, but the docs weren't brought into
line.

PyList_CheckExact() was added at 2.2 but never documented.

backport candidate.

Raymond Hettinger bc0f2ab9bb Expose dict_contains() and PyDict_Contains() with is about 10% faster
than PySequence_Contains() and more clearly applicable to dicts.

Apply the new function in setobject.c where __contains__ checking is
ubiquitous.

* Correct description of PyFloat_FromString.  While ignored, the pend
  argument still has to be given.
* Typo in PyLong_FromString.

Skip Montanaro ae31e9b8c7 Add PyFloat_FromString. Left the char **pend argument out of the
description since while there, it is useless and ignored, according to Tim's
commen.  (PyInt_FromString is also not described, but PyLong_FromString is.
Is the former deprecated?)

Michael W. Hudson 5efaf7eac8 This is my nearly two year old patch
[ 400998 ] experimental support for extended slicing on lists

somewhat spruced up and better tested than it was when I wrote it.

Includes docs & tests.  The whatsnew section needs expanding, and arrays
should support extended slices -- later.

Thomas Heller 541703b18f Typo: whcar_t should be wchar_t.

Fred Drake 432425e834 Small markup adjustments for consistency. 2002-04-29 15:17:16 +00:00
Tim Peters 5de9842b34 Repair widespread misuse of _PyString_Resize. Since it's clear people
don't understand how this function works, also beefed up the docs.  The
most common usage error is of this form (often spread out across gotos):

	if (_PyString_Resize(&s, n) < 0) {
		Py_DECREF(s);
		s = NULL;
		goto outtahere;
	}

The error is that if _PyString_Resize runs out of memory, it automatically
decrefs the input string object s (which also deallocates it, since its
refcount must be 1 upon entry), and sets s to NULL.  So if the "if"
branch ever triggers, it's an error to call Py_DECREF(s):  s is already
NULL!  A correct way to write the above is the simpler (and intended)

	if (_PyString_Resize(&s, n) < 0)
		goto outtahere;

Bugfix candidate.

Fred Drake f495ef7466 Warn people away from PyModule_GetDict(), but not too strongly.
(The real issue is whether modules can benefit from an alternate
implementation strategy rather than using a dictionary.  We should migrate
away from direct dictionary manipulation to allow more room for Jeremy to
flex the implementation with changes in globals lookup.)
