Gregory P. Smith d23047b62c issue7213 + issue2320: Cause a DeprecationWarning if the close_fds argument is
not passed to subprocess.Popen as the default value will be changing in a
future Python to the safer and more often desired value of True.

DeprecationWarnings that show up in a lot of existing code are controversial
and have caused pain in the past.  I'd like to leave this on for 3.2 beta1 and
see how things go.  We can remove the warning if it is deemed too noisy during
any betas.  (case study: the md5 and sha module DeprecationWarnings are loathed
around the world as those modules were never going to be removed in 2.x and
2to3 has a fixer for code that uses them)

Nick Coghlan 7bb30b72d8 Improve Pydoc interactive browsing (#2001). Patch by Ron Adam.

* Specifying port 0 will pick an arbitrary unused socket port.
* A new browse() function to start the new server and browser.
* Show Python version information in the header.
* A *Get* field which takes the same input as the help() function.
* A *Search* field which replaces the Tkinter search box.
* Links to *Module Index*, *Topics*, and *Keywords*.

R. David Murray bb7b753cfc Add missing versionchanged, correct 'throw' wording to 'raise'. 2010-12-03 04:26:18 +00:00
R. David Murray b579dba119 #1486713: Add a tolerant mode to HTMLParser.
The motivation for adding this option is that the the functionality it
provides used to be provided by sgmllib in Python2, and was used by,
for example, BeautifulSoup.  Without this option, the Python3 version
of BeautifulSoup and the many programs that use it are crippled.

The original patch was by 'kxroberto'.  I modified it heavily but kept his
heuristics and test.  I also added additional heuristics to fix #975556,
#1046092, and part of #6191.  This patch should be completely backward
compatible:  the behavior with the default strict=True is unchanged.
2010-12-03 04:06:39 +00:00
Brian Curtin 79cdb661f5 Fix #10554. Added context manager support to Popen objects.
Added a few common Popen uses to the tests like we've done for a few other
instances of adding context managers. Eventually the entire test suite
could be converted to use the context manager format.

2010-12-02 21:47:19 +00:00
Brian Curtin 52173d4959 Fix #9333. Expose os.symlink on Windows only when usable.
In order to create symlinks on Windows, SeCreateSymbolicLinkPrivilege
is an account privilege that is required to be held by the user. Not only
must the privilege be enabled for the account, the activated privileges for
the currently running application must be adjusted to enable the requested
privilege.

Rather than exposing an additional function to be called prior to the user's
first os.symlink call, we handle the AdjustTokenPrivileges Windows API call
internally and only expose os.symlink when the privilege escalation was
successful.

Due to the change of only exposing os.symlink when it's available, we can
go back to the original test skipping methods of checking via `hasattr`.

Additionally, the st_ino attribute of stat structures was not being filled
in. This was left out of the fix to #10027 and was noticed due to
test_tarfile failing when applying the patch for this issue. An earlier
version of the fix to #10027 included st_ino, but that attribute got lost
in the shuffle of a few review/fix cycles. All tests pass.
