Original idea by Guido van Rossum.
Idea for skipable inner iterators by Raymond Hettinger.
Idea for argument order and identity function default by Alex Martelli.
Implementation by Hye-Shik Chang (with tweaks by Raymond Hettinger).
Also SF patch 843455.
This is a critical bugfix.
I'll backport to 2.3 maint, but not beyond that. The bugs this fixes
have been there since weakrefs were introduced.
for this function has always claimed that was true, but it wasn't
verified before. For the latest batch of "double deallocation" bugs
(stemming from weakref callbacks invoked by way of subtype_dealloc),
this assert would have triggered (instead of waiting for
_Py_ForgetReference to die with a segfault later).
Formerly, underlying queue was implemented in terms of two lists. The
new queue is a series of singly-linked fixed length lists.
The new implementation runs much faster, supports multi-way tees, and
allows tees of tees without additional memory costs.
The root ideas for this structure were contributed by Andrew Koenig
and Guido van Rossum.
memory leak that would've occurred for all iterators that were
destroyed before having iterated until they raised StopIteration.
* Simplify some code.
* Add new test cases to check for the memleak and ensure that mixing
iteration with modification of the values for existing keys works.
has been closed" exceptions.
Adds a DBCursorClosedError exception in the closed cursor case for
future use in fixing the legacy bsddb interface deadlock problems
due to its use of cursors with DB_INIT_LOCK | DB_THREAD support
enabled.
* tee object is no longer subclassable
* independent iterators renamed to "itertools.tee_iterator"
* fixed doc string typo and added entry in the module doc string
* Add error checking code to PyList_Append() call.
* Replace PyObject_CallMethod(to->outbasket, "pop", NULL) with equivalent
in-line code. Inlining is important here because the search for the
pop method will occur for every element returned by the iterator.
* Make tee's dealloc() a little smarter. If the trailing iterator is
being deallocated, then the queue data is no longer needed and can
be freed.
It works like the pure python verion except:
* it stops storing data after of the iterators gets deallocated
* the data queue is implemented with two stacks instead of one dictionary.
* Added C coded getrandbits(k) method that runs in linear time.
* Call the new method from randrange() for ranges >= 2**53.
* Adds a warning for generators not defining getrandbits() whenever they
have a call to randrange() with too large of a population.
features in BerkeleyDB not exposed. notably: the DB_MPOOLFILE interface
has not yet been wrapped in an object.
Adds support for building and installing bsddb3 in python2.3 that has
an older version of this module installed as bsddb without conflicts.
The pybsddb.sf.net build/packaged version of the module uses a
dynamicly loadable module called _pybsddb rather than _bsddb.
The embed2.diff patch solves the user's problem by exporting the missing
symbols from the Python core so Python can be embedded in another Cygwin
application (well, at lest vim).
Fixed leak caused by switching from PyList_GetItem to PySequence_GetItem.
Added missing NULL check.
Clarified code by converting an "if" to an "else if".
Will backport to 2.3.
arbitrary bytes before the actual zip compatible archive. Zipfiles
containing comments at the end of the file are still not supported.
Add a testcase to test_zipimport, and update NEWS.
This closes sf #775637 and sf #669036.
New Plan (releases to be made off the head, ongoing random 2.4 stuff
to be done on a short-lived branch, provided anyone is motivated enough
to create one).
I don't think the fix here is very good, but I'm not sure what would
be better. In particular, we should not be defining _SGIAPI, but lots
of things break if we remove it.
* Extended DB & DBEnv set_get_returns_none functionality to take a
"level" instead of a boolean flag. The boolean 0 and 1 values still
have the same effect. A value of 2 extends the "return None instead
of raising an exception" behaviour to the DBCursor set methods.
This will become the default behaviour in pybsddb 4.2.
* Fixed a typo in DBCursor.join_item method that made it crash instead
of returning a value. Obviously nobody uses it. Wrote a test case
for join and join_item.
after running the script so that a program could do something like:
os.environ['PYTHONINSPECT'] = 1
to programmatically enter a prompt at the end.

Added a new exception, socket.timeout so that timeouts can be differentiated
from other socket exceptions.
Docs, more tests, and newsitem to follow.
If the callback raised an exception but did not set curexc_traceback,
the trace function was called with PyTrace_RETURN. That is, the trace
function was called with an exception set. The main loop detected the
exception when the trace function returned; it complained and disabled
tracing.
Fix the logic error so that PyTrace_RETURN only occurs if the callback
returned normally.
The trace function must be called for exceptions, too. So we had
to add new functionality to call with PyTrace_EXCEPTION. (Leads to a
rather ugly ifdef / else block that contains only a '}'.)
Reverse the logic and name of NOFIX_TRACE to FIX_TRACE.
Joint work with Fred.
The interning of short strings violates the refcnt==1 assumption for
_PyString_Resize().
A simple fix is to boost the initial value of "totalnew" by 1.
Combined with an NULL argument to PyString_FromStringAndSize(),
this assures that resulting format string is not interned.
This will remain true even if the implementation of
PyString_FromStringAndSize() changes because only the uninitialized
strings that can be interned are those of zero length.
Added a test case.
