Tim Peters 1c9ca8726e Added a little type/class NEWS. 2001-10-04 06:43:12 +00:00
Guido van Rossum ed554f6fc7 Note removal of Demo/dns, point to PyDNS. 2001-10-02 23:15:37 +00:00
Tim Peters 7402f791a4 SF patch [#466616] Exclude imported items from doctest, 
from Tim Hochberg.  Also mucho fiddling to change the way doctest
determines whether a thing is a function, module or class.  Under 2.2,
this really requires the functions in inspect.py (e.g., types.ClassType
is close to meaningless now, if not outright misleading).
 2001-10-02 03:53:41 +00:00
Tim Peters 1ce3cf7749 SF patch [#466877] SIGBREAK is missing from signal module. 
Patch from Steve Scott to add SIGBREAK support (unique to Windows).

Tim Peters d38b1c74f3 SF [#466125] PyLong_AsLongLong works for any integer. 
Generalize PyLong_AsLongLong to accept int arguments too.  The real point
is so that PyArg_ParseTuple's 'L' code does too.  That code was
undocumented (AFAICT), so documented it.

Tim Peters abf925f6bf Post-release fiddling (prep for 2.2b1). 2001-09-28 21:53:42 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 647d5e8f4a Fixed a minor typo. 2001-09-28 17:01:02 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 86fbaf8e67 Merged changes from 22a4 branch. 2001-09-28 15:26:12 +00:00
Marc-André Lemburg bf99017bbb Added note about new StringIO/cStringIO feature. 2001-09-27 14:17:33 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 808eea70ec Separate out the type/class-related news and reword some items. 
Add news items about comparisons, repr(), __class__ assignment.

Tim Peters 66c1a525e0 Make properties discoverable from Python: 
- property() now takes 4 keyword arguments:  fget, fset, fdel, doc.
  Note that the real purpose of the 'f' prefix is to make fdel fit in
  ('del' is a keyword, so can't used as a keyword argument name).

- These map to visible readonly attributes 'fget', 'fset', 'fdel',
  and '__doc__' in the property object.

- fget/fset/fdel weren't discoverable from Python before.

- __doc__ is new, and allows to associate a docstring with a property.

Barry Warsaw 2f60073d2d Added a note about the new email package. 2001-09-24 04:28:10 +00:00
Tim Peters 2c9aa5ea8d Generalize file.writelines() to allow iterable objects. 2001-09-23 04:06:05 +00:00
Tim Peters 8a9c284437 Make difflib.ndiff() and difflib.Differ.compare() generators. This 
restores the 2.1 ability of Tools/scripts/ndiff.py to start producing
output before the entire comparison is complete.

Guido van Rossum 624c8af706 All the news that fits, we print. 
(Went through the logs looking for nuggets.  This is what I found.)
 2001-09-18 15:21:04 +00:00
Guido van Rossum d8185ca43e Mention SMTP additions and hmac module. 2001-09-14 16:35:16 +00:00
Tim Peters 59c9a645e2 SF bug [#460467] file objects should be subclassable. 
Preliminary support.  What's here works, but needs fine-tuning.
 2001-09-13 05:38:56 +00:00
Tim Peters 1f47d11ff2 Added items about significant subclass bugfixes. 2001-09-12 23:40:29 +00:00

Guido van Rossum 54328388f7 Another volunteer. 2001-09-10 19:00:21 +00:00
Tim Peters 16a77adfbd Generalize operator.indexOf (PySequence_Index) to work with any 
iterable object.  I'm not sure how that got overlooked before!

Got rid of the internal _PySequence_IterContains, introduced a new
internal _PySequence_IterSearch, and rewrote all the iteration-based
"count of", "index of", and "is the object in it or not?" routines to
just call the new function.  I suppose it's slower this way, but the
code duplication was getting depressing.

Tim Peters b07352e8b7 The usual post-release fiddling. 2001-09-08 01:25:47 +00:00
Barry Warsaw d6c8ca6536 Merging 2.2a3 branch changes back into trunk 2001-09-07 18:13:44 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 8d7234d1dc Rename 'getset' to 'property'. 2001-09-06 22:02:58 +00:00
Steve Purcell 6091cd61ce Added note of unittest.py changes that fixed bug 451309 2001-09-06 16:05:17 +00:00
Martin v. Löwis cb227c9850 Report patch #416079 changes. 2001-09-06 08:54:16 +00:00
Tim Peters 6e13a562ae Enable large file support on Win32 systems. 
Curious:  the MS docs say stati64 etc are supported even on Win95, but
Win95 doesn't support a filesystem that allows partitions > 2 Gb.

test_largefile:  This was opening its test file in text mode.  I have no
idea how that worked under Win64, but it sure needs binary mode on Win98.
BTW, on Win98 test_largefile runs quickly (under a second).

Tim Peters a40c793d06 Rework the way we try to check for libm overflow, given that C99 no longer 
requires that errno ever get set, and it looks like glibc is already
playing that game.  New rules:

+ Never use HUGE_VAL.  Use the new Py_HUGE_VAL instead.

+ Never believe errno.  If overflow is the only thing you're interested in,
  use the new Py_OVERFLOWED(x) macro.  If you're interested in any libm
  errors, use the new Py_SET_ERANGE_IF_OVERFLOW(x) macro, which attempts
  to set errno the way C89 said it worked.

Unfortunately, none of these are reliable, but they work on Windows and I
*expect* under glibc too.

Guido van Rossum 97bac53c14 Change the date field to use $Date$ so it won't be outrageously out of 
date.
 2001-09-05 18:57:51 +00:00
Guido van Rossum b674baf70e Document -Q. Move arguments around to be in strict alphabetical 
order.  Add breaks in SYNOPSIS.
 2001-09-05 18:55:34 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 32aa5d2c0b Describe -E (which was added to 2.2a2). 2001-09-05 18:43:35 +00:00
Martin v. Löwis 44f8696171 Patch #428326: New class threading.Timer. 2001-09-05 13:44:54 +00:00
Tim Peters 785261684e Return reasonable results for math.log(long) and math.log10(long) (we were 
getting Infs, NaNs, or nonsense in 2.1 and before; in yesterday's CVS we
were getting OverflowError; but these functions always make good sense
for positive arguments, no matter how large).
 2001-09-05 00:53:45 +00:00
Tim Peters 7eea37e831 At Guido's suggestion, here's a new C API function, PyObject_Dir(), like 
__builtin__.dir().  Moved the guts from bltinmodule.c to object.c.
 2001-09-04 22:08:56 +00:00
Tim Peters 9fffa3eea3 Raise OverflowError when appropriate on long->float conversion. Most of 
the fiddling is simply due to that no caller of PyLong_AsDouble ever
checked for failure (so that's fixing old bugs).  PyLong_AsDouble is much
faster for big inputs now too, but that's more of a happy consequence
than a design goal.
 2001-09-04 05:14:19 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 61c345fa37 Rename the -D option to -Q, to avoid a Jython option name conflict. 2001-09-04 03:26:15 +00:00
Tim Peters 32f453eaa4 New restriction on pow(x, y, z): If z is not None, x and y must be of 
integer types, and y must be >= 0.  See discussion at
