Walter Dörwald 068325ef92 Apply the second version of SF patch http://www.python.org/sf/536241
Add a method zfill to str, unicode and UserString and change
Lib/string.py accordingly.

This activates the zfill version in unicodeobject.c that was
commented out and implements the same in stringobject.c. It also
adds the test for unicode support in Lib/string.py back in and
uses repr() instead() of str() (as it was before Lib/string.py 1.62)

Guido van Rossum 0986d8250f - A type can now inherit its metatype from its base type. Previously,
when PyType_Ready() was called, if ob_type was found to be NULL, it
  was always set to &PyType_Type; now it is set to base->ob_type,
  where base is tp_base, defaulting to &PyObject_Type.

- PyType_Ready() accidentally did not inherit tp_is_gc; now it does.

Bugfix candidate.

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).

Barry Warsaw d164837856 (py-temp-directory): Add /var/tmp to the list of directories this
searches.  This is added after /tmp.  Closes SF bug #505488, except
that /var/tmp comes after /tmp instead of the patch's suggestion of
putting it before /usr/tmp.

it should still ignore ## for indentation purposes.  Closes SF bug
#523825, w/ patch provided by Christian Stork (mod'd by Barry).

Guido van Rossum 8c84255316 "Fix" for SF bug #520644: __slots__ are not pickled.
As promised in my response to the bug report, I'm not really fixing
it; in fact, one could argule over what the proper fix should do.
Instead, I'm adding a little magic that raises TypeError if you try to
pickle an instance of a class that has __slots__ but doesn't define or
override __getstate__.  This is done by adding a bozo __getstate__
that always raises TypeError.

Bugfix candidate (also the checkin to typeobject.c, of course).

Tim Peters fbf74f2acc News about zlib-1.1.4. 2002-03-14 19:06:01 +00:00
Tim Peters fb05db2cae file_truncate(): provide full "large file" support on Windows, by
dropping MS's inadequate _chsize() function.  This was inspired by
SF patch 498109 ("fileobject truncate support for win32"), which I
rejected.

libstdtypes.tex:  Someone who knows should update the availability
blurb.  For example, if it's available on Linux, it would be good to
say so.

test_largefile:  Uncommented the file.truncate() tests, and reworked to
do more.  The old comment about "permission errors" in the truncation
tests under Windows was almost certainly due to that the file wasn't open
for *write* access at this point, so of course MS wouldn't let you
truncate it.  I'd be appalled if a Unixish system did.

CAUTION:  Someone should run this test on Linux (etc) too.  The
truncation part was commented out before.  Note that test_largefile isn't
run by default.

Guido van Rossum 2eb0b87d14 SF patch 514641 (Naofumi Honda) - Negative ob_size of LongObjects
Due to the bizarre definition of _PyLong_Copy(), creating an instance
of a subclass of long with a negative value could cause core dumps
later on.  Unfortunately it looks like the behavior of _PyLong_Copy()
is quite intentional, so the fix is more work than feels comfortable.

This fix is almost, but not quite, the code that Naofumi Honda added;
in addition, I added a test case.

Guido van Rossum 88b666ca3f SF patch 518765 (Derek Harland): Bug in copy.py when used through
rexec.

When using a restricted environment, imports of copy will fail with an
AttributeError when trying to access types.CodeType.

Bugfix candidate (all the way back to 1.5.3, but at least 2.1.3 and
2.2.1).

Tim Peters e64ef931d6 SF patch 522961: Leak in Python/thread_nt.h, from Gerald S. Williams.
A file-static "threads" dict mapped thread IDs to Windows handles, but
was never referenced, and entries never got removed.  This gets rid of
the YAGNI-dict entirely.
Bugfix candidate.

Martin v. Löwis b2c92f44d4 Patch #511193: Implement killpg in posixmodule. 2002-02-16 23:35:41 +00:00
Marc-André Lemburg a5d2b4cb18 Break SSL support out of _socket module and place it into a new
helper module _ssl.

The support for the RAND_* APIs in _ssl is now only enabled
for OpenSSL 0.9.5 and up since they were added in that
release.

Note that socketmodule.* should really be renamed to _socket.* --
unfortunately, this seems to lose the CVS history of the file.

Please review and test... I was only able to test the header file
chaos in socketmodule.c/h on Linux. The test run through fine
and compiles don't give errors or warnings.

WARNING: This patch does *not* include changes to the various
non-Unix build process files.

Tim Peters ab034fab03 Implement os.waitpid() for Windows, in a way that's compatible with Linux
where their capabilities intersect.  Would be nice if people using non-
MSVC compilers (Borland etc) took a whack at doing something similar for
them (this code relies on the MS _cwait function).
