Nick Coghlan ab7bf2143e Close issue #6210: Implement PEP 409 2012-02-26 17:49:52 +10:00
Stefan Krah 9a2d99e28a - Issue #10181: New memoryview implementation fixes multiple ownership
and lifetime issues of dynamically allocated Py_buffer members (#9990)
  as well as crashes (#8305, #7433). Many new features have been added
  (See whatsnew/3.3), and the documentation has been updated extensively.
  The ndarray test object from _testbuffer.c implements all aspects of
  PEP-3118, so further development towards the complete implementation
  of the PEP can proceed in a test-driven manner.

  Thanks to Nick Coghlan, Antoine Pitrou and Pauli Virtanen for review
  and many ideas.

- Issue #12834: Fix incorrect results of memoryview.tobytes() for
  non-contiguous arrays.

- Issue #5231: Introduce memoryview.cast() method that allows changing
  format and shape without making a copy of the underlying memory.

Victor Stinner 0cbec571ae Document changes on mbcs encoding 2010-09-12 20:32:57 +00:00
Amaury Forgeot d'Arc ba117ef7e9 #4617: Previously it was illegal to delete a name from the local
namespace if it occurs as a free variable in a nested block.  This limitation
of the compiler has been lifted, and a new opcode introduced (DELETE_DEREF).

This sample was valid in 2.6, but fails to compile in 3.x without this change::

   >>> def f():
   ...     def print_error():
   ...        print(e)
   ...     try:
   ...        something
   ...     except Exception as e:
   ...        print_error()
   ...        # implicit "del e" here


This sample has always been invalid in Python, and now works::

   >>> def outer(x):
   ...     def inner():
   ...        return x
   ...     inner()
   ...     del x

There is no need to bump the PYC magic number: the new opcode is used
for code that did not compile before.

Éric Araujo 4234ad4266 Fix typos and wording in what’s new 3.2.
- The entry about shutil.copytree is just a revert of r84524 which
looks like an unfinished edition.
- The use of gender-neutral language (s/his/their/) removes the
implicit assumption that programmer == male (change agreed by Antoine).
- Other changes should be uncontroversial fixes.

I haven’t rewrapped under 80 lines to keep the diffs readable; I’ll
rewrap later.
