number of tests, all because of the codecs/_multibytecodecs issue described
here (it's not a Py3K issue, just something Py3K discovers):
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2006-April/064051.html
Hye-Shik Chang promised to look for a fix, so no need to fix it here. The
tests that are expected to break are:
test_codecencodings_cn
test_codecencodings_hk
test_codecencodings_jp
test_codecencodings_kr
test_codecencodings_tw
test_codecs
test_multibytecodec
This merge fixes an actual test failure (test_weakref) in this branch,
though, so I believe merging is the right thing to do anyway.
causing test_pyclbr to fail on all other platforms. Added that routine
to the urllib "ignore" list.
Removed the special case for "g" in the pickle module. types.py deletes
"g" from its namespace; maybe it didn't always. Whatever, the special
case isn't needed today.
* Install the unittests, docs, newsitem, include file, and makefile update.
* Exercise the new functions whereever sets.py was being used.
Includes the docs for libfuncs.tex. Separate docs for the types are
forthcoming.
ignore tuple.
The line, "from _random import Random as CoreGenerator", fools the test
code which expects CoreGenerator.__name__ to be "CoreGenerator" instead
of "Random".
real module, by filtering out aliased methods. This, combined with
the recent fixes to pyclbr, make it possible to enable more tests with
fewer exceptions.
- The _modules cache now uses the full module name.
- The meaning of the (internal!!!) inpackage argument is changed: it
now is the parent package name, or None. readmodule() doesn't
support this argument any more.
- The meaning of the path argument is changed: when inpackage is set,
the module *must* be found in this path (as is the case for the real
package search).
- Miscellaneous cleanup, e.g. fixed __all__, changed some comments and
doc strings, etc.
- Adapted the unit tests to the new semantics (nothing much changed,
really). Added some debugging code to the unit tests that print
helpful extra info to stderr when a test fails (interpreting the
test failures turned out to be hard without these).
imports e.g. test_support must do so using an absolute package name
such as "import test.test_support" or "from test import test_support".
This also updates the README in Lib/test, and gets rid of the
duplicate data dirctory in Lib/test/data (replaced by
Lib/email/test/data).
Now Tim and Jack can have at it. :)
The test of httplib makes it difficult to maintain httplib. There are
two many idioms that pyclbr doesn't seem to understand, and I don't
understand how to update these tests to make them work.
Also remove commented out test of urllib2.
Taught doctest about static methods, class methods, and property docstrings
in new-style classes. As for inspect.py/pydoc.py before it, the new stuff
needed didn't really fit into the old architecture (but was less of a
strain to force-fit here).
New-style class docstrings still aren't found, but that's the subject
of a different bug and I want to fix that right instead of hacking around
it in 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).
of PyMapping_Keys because we know we have a real dict. Tolerate that
objects may have an attr named "__dict__" that's not a dict (Py_None
popped up during testing).
test_descr.py, test_dir(): Test the new classic-class behavior; beef up
the new-style class test similarly.
test_pyclbr.py, checkModule(): dir(C) is no longer a synonym for
C.__dict__.keys() when C is a classic class (looks like the same thing
that burned distutils! -- should it be *made* a synoym again? Then it
would be inconsistent with new-style class behavior.).
