Tim Peters 710fb1548a astimezone() internals: if utcoffset() returns a duration, complain if
dst() returns None (instead of treating that as 0).

Tim Peters 0123139d66 Added a section to record datetime changes. There's apparently going to
be an unbounded number of API changes <0.6 wink>.

Tim Peters bbc5d1674b SF bug 660795: logging missing from Python 2.3a1 for Windows.
Added the logging package.  In the meantime, Neal Norwitz added a
test_logging.py to the std test suite, which would have caught this
oversight in the Windows installer.

Skip Montanaro decc6a47df Split OPT make variable into OPT and BASECFLAGS. The latter contains those
compiler flags which are necessary to get a clean compile.  The former is
for user-specified optimizer, debug, trace fiddling.  See patch 640843.

Add /sw/lib and /sw/include to setup.py search paths on Darwin to take
advantage of fink goodies.

Add scriptsinstall target to Makefile to install certain scripts from
Tools/scripts directory.

This adds @CFLAGS@  and @CPPFLAGS@ to the end of the respective
variable definitions.  It also adds $(LDFLAGS) to the $(CC) invocation
to build $(PGEN).

Raymond Hettinger e11b510a5b SF 658405: calendar.py to rely on the datetime module instead of the time
module.

The code is shorter, more readable, faster, and dramatically increases the
range of acceptable dates.

Also, used the floor division operator in leapdays().

[ 643835 ] Set Next Statement for Python debuggers

with a few tweaks by me: adding an unsigned or two, mentioning that
not all jumps are allowed in the doc for pdb, adding a NEWS item and
a note to whatsnew, and AuCTeX doing something cosmetic to libpdb.tex.

Gustavo Niemeyer 786ddb29c9 Fixed bug
[#521782] unreliable file.read() error handling

* Objects/fileobject.c
  (file_read): Clear errors before leaving the loop in all situations,
  and also check if some data was read before exiting the loop with an
  EWOULDBLOCK exception.

* Doc/lib/libstdtypes.tex
* Objects/fileobject.c
  Document that sometimes a read() operation can return less data than
  what the user asked, if running in non-blocking mode.

* Misc/NEWS
  Document the fix.

  LTR evaluation.

* Lib/compiler/pycodegen.py
  (CodeGenerator.visitDict): Reordered evaluation of dictionaries to
  follow strict LTR evaluation.

* Doc/ref/ref5.tex
  Documented the general LTR evaluation order idea.

[#636769] Fix for major rexec bugs

* Lib/rexec.py
  (FileBase): Added 'xreadlines' and '__iter__' to allowed file methods.
  (FileWrapper.__init__): Removed unnecessary self.f variable, which gave
  direct access to the file object.
  (RExec): Added 'xreadlines' and '_weakref' to allowed modules.
  (RExec.r_open): Convert string subclasses to a real string classes
  before doing comparisons with mode parameter.

* Lib/ihooks.py
  (BasicModuleImporter.import_module/reload/unload): Convert the module
  name to a real string before working with it.
  (ModuleImporter.import_module/import_it/reload): Convert the module
  name to a real strings before working with it.

* Misc/NEWS
  Document the change.

Raymond Hettinger 866964c3a3 Apply SF patch 652930: Add optional base argument to math.log(x[, base]). 2002-12-14 19:51:34 +00:00

Marc-André Lemburg 20b91358e5 News item for the change to turn _codecs into a builtin module. 2002-12-12 18:01:43 +00:00
Walter Dörwald d9a6ad3beb Enhance issubclass() and PyObject_IsSubclass() so that a tuple is
supported as the second argument. This has the same meaning as
for isinstance(), i.e. issubclass(X, (A, B)) is equivalent
to issubclass(X, A) or issubclass(X, B). Compared to isinstance(),
this patch does not search the tuple recursively for classes, i.e.
any entry in the tuple that is not a class, will result in a
TypeError.

This closes SF patch #649608.

Raymond Hettinger ef8b9c6616 Docs were added about a month ago 2002-12-09 08:56:06 +00:00
Skip Montanaro 3bf99e3e87 Add support for binary pickles to the shelve module. In some situations
this can result in significantly smaller files.  All classes as well as the
open function now accept an optional binary parameter, which defaults to
False for backward compatibility.  Added a small test suite, updated the
libref documentation (including documenting the exported classes and fixing
a few other nits) and added a note about the change to Misc/NEWS.

Just van Rossum 6a8c51837a The new imp.[gs]et_frozenmodules() will be utterly redundant if the
zipfile import stuff get in. I'll probably back it out again.
2002-12-01 21:43:13 +00:00
Just van Rossum 3eb166b49b Slightly improved version of patch #642578: "Expose PyImport_FrozenModules
in imp". This adds two functions to the imp module: get_frozenmodules()
and set_frozenmodules().

method for constructing new dictionaries from sequences of keys.

Fred Drake 4dd0f7ef7a Add a way to say "use any resource except A". For example, to run
allow the use of any resource except bsddb, give the option
"-uall,-bsddb".
