- IMPORT_NAME takes an extra argument from the stack: the relativeness of
the import. Only passed to __import__ when it's not -1.
- __import__() takes an optional 5th argument for the same thing; it
__defaults to -1 (old semantics: try relative, then absolute)
- 'from . import name' imports name (be it module or regular attribute)
from the current module's *package*. Likewise, 'from .module import name'
will import name from a sibling to the current module.
- Importing from outside a package is not allowed; 'from . import sys' in a
toplevel module will not work, nor will 'from .. import sys' in a
(single-level) package.
- 'from __future__ import absolute_import' will turn on the new semantics
for import and from-import: imports will be absolute, except for
from-import with dots.
Includes tests for regular imports and importhooks, parser changes and a
NEWS item, but no compiler-package changes or documentation changes.
This was started by Mike Bland and completed by Guido
(with help from Neal).
This still needs a __future__ statement added;
Thomas is working on Michael's patch for that aspect.
There's a small amount of code cleanup and refactoring
in ast.c, compile.c and ceval.c (I fixed the lltrace
behavior when EXT_POP is used -- however I had to make
lltrace a static global).
breaks the parser module, because it adds the if/else construct as well as
two new grammar rules for backward compatibility. If no one else fixes
parsermodule, I guess I'll go ahead and fix it later this week.
The TeX code was checked with texcheck.py, but not rendered. There is
actually a slight incompatibility:

Traceback (most recent call last):

TypeError: iteration over non-sequence

SyntaxError: invalid syntax
Since there's no way the former version can be useful, it's probably a
bugfix ;)
- The copy module now "copies" function objects (as atomic objects).
- dict.__getitem__ now looks for a __missing__ hook before raising
KeyError.
- Added a new type, defaultdict, to the collections module.
This uses the new __missing__ hook behavior added to dict (see above).
Google for: eu_ES decimal point
shows that BSD locales had the eu_ES decimal point as
a single quote (') instead of a comma (,).
This was seems to have been fixed 15 months ago, but it's not on our
Mac and presumably others. So skip this broken locale.
test suite.
For urllib2, move the import of gopherlib into the
only function that uses it: users (including the
test suite) certainly shouldn't see a deprecation
warning just because they import urllib2! If they
actually use gopher_open(), fine, _then_ they should
see a deprecation warning.
test_file to fail on Windows in reality (can't delete
a still-open file), but a new bare "except:" hid that
test_file failed on Windows, and leaving behind the
still-open TESTFN caused a cascade of bogus failures
in later tests.
So, close the file, and stop hiding failure to unlink.
readline/readlines/read/readinto, loudly break by raising ValueError, rather
than silently deliver data out of order or hitting EOF prematurely.
Probably not a bugfix candidate, even though it affects no 'working' code.
Based on lsprof (patch #1212837) by Brett Rosen and Ted Czotter.
With further editing by Michael Hudson and myself.
History in svn repo: http://codespeak.net/svn/user/arigo/hack/misc/lsprof
* Module/_lsprof.c is the internal C module, Lib/cProfile.py a wrapper.
* pstats.py updated to display cProfile's caller/callee timings if available.
* setup.py and NEWS updated.
* documentation updates in the profiler section:
- explain the differences between the three profilers that we have now
- profile and cProfile can use a unified documentation, like (c)Pickle
- mention that hotshot is "for specialized usage" now
- removed references to the "old profiler" that no longer exists
* test updates:
- extended test_profile to cover delicate cases like recursion
- added tests for the caller/callee displays
- added test_cProfile, performing the same tests for cProfile
* TO-DO:
- cProfile gives a nicer name to built-in, particularly built-in methods,
which could be backported to profile.
- not tested on Windows recently!
Not sure why/how _handlers/_handlerList is out of sync. This could
indicate a deeper problem.
In test_logging, the only absolutely necessary change to get working
was tcpserver.abort = 1. But we don't want to wait infinitely
to join the threads, so give a 2.0 second timeout.
There doesn't appear to be a need for a local abort variable
in serve_until_stopped, so just use the instance member.
Note the problem is only on HEAD, not in 2.4.
on both Unix (SVR4 and BSD) and Windows. Restores behaviour of passing -1
for anonymous memory on Unix. Use MAP_ANONYMOUS instead of _ANON since
the latter is deprecated according to Linux (gentoo) man pages.
Should we continue to allow mmap.mmap(0, length) to work on Windows?
0 is a valid fd.
Will backport bugfix portions.
tty opened by os.openpty() isn't always a tty according to os.isatty(), when
it's tested inside the process that opened it. Doesn't affect actual
functionality, as using a tty this way is rarely, if ever, useful. Ignoring
the failure allows the test for actual functionality to continue.
Will backport to 2.4-maint.
Expand set of errors caught in set_context(). Some new errors, some
old error messages changed for consistency.
Fixed error checking in generator expression code. The first set of
tests were impossible condition given the grammar. In general, the
ast code uses REQ() for those sanity checks.
Fix some error handling for augmented assignments. As comments in the
code explain, set_context() ought to work here, but I got unexpected
crashes when I tried it. Should come back to this.
Add note to Grammar that yield expression is a special case.
Add doctest cases for SyntaxErrors raised by ast.c.
before the listener was ready (on gentoo x86 buildslave). This
caused the listener to not exit normally since nobody connected to it
(waited in accept()). The exception was raised in the other thread
and the test failed.
This fix doesn't completely eliminate the race, but should make it
near impossible to trigger. Hopefully it's good enough.
bugs which cause the interpreter to crash. I'm sure we can find a few
more. Many missing bugs deal with variations on unchecked infinite recursion
(like coerce.py).
cases if TERM isn't set or is unknown (perhaps we should only check if
unset or empty?)
Skip the test if TERM isn't set. This seems to occur when running under
buildbot and presumably cron.

Will backport if it works.
the tests. This stops the confusing/annoying:
No handlers could be found for logger "cookielib"
message we got whenever some test running after test_logging
happened to use cookielib.py (when not using regrtest's -r,
this happened during test_urllib2; when using -r, it varied).
returning 'a' as the delimiter. It now returns '|', but not because I
understood better what the code was supposed to do. Would someone that
understands the idea behind _guess_delimiter() (see its doc string) look to
see if my fallback choice is better than before or if it's just serendipity
that I picked the proper delimiter?
* set sq_repeat and sq_concat to NULL for user-defined new-style
classes, as a way to fix a number of related problems. See
test_descr.notimplemented()). One of these problems was fixed
in r25556 and r25557 but many more existed; this is a general
fix and thus reverts r25556-r25557.
* to avoid having PySequence_Repeat()/PySequence_Concat() failing
on user-defined classes, they now fall back to nb_add/nb_mul if
sq_concat/sq_repeat are not defined and the arguments appear to
be sequences.
* added tests.
Backport candidate.
last field was empty it would strip the delimiter and incorrectly guess that
"" was the delimiter. Reported in c.l.py by Laurent Laporte. Will
backport.
cookielib.LWPCookieJar and .MozillaCookieJar are documented to raise
cookielib.LoadError on attempt to load an invalid cookies file, but
raise IOError instead. Compromise by having LoadError subclass IOError.
This code generated a C assertion:
assert 1, ([s for s in x] +
[s for s in x])
pass
assert was completely broken, it needed to use the proper block.
compiler_use_block() is now no longer used, so remove it.

The .py files appear to have been checked in with Windows or inconsistent line
endings. The current check-in disrupts the 'svn blame', but hopefully it is
irrelevant for freshly imported code.
If a line had multiple semi-colons and ended with a semi-colon, we would
loop too many times and access a NULL node. Exit the loop early if
there are no more children.
Delete globals which contain variable information at the end of the test.
This makes the test stable (no reported leaks) when running regrtest -R
to find reference leaks.
so it is only executed once. Otherwise the same search function is
repeated added to the codec search path when regrtest is run with -R
and leaks are reported.
'[].__add__', to match what the other internal descriptor types provide:
'__objclass__' attribute, '__self__' member, and reasonable repr and
comparison.
Added a test.
accepts strings only for unpickling reasons. This check prevents the honest
mistake of passing a string like '2:59.0' to time() and getting an insane
object.
According to Jeremy, the comment only made sense when
the yield was disallowed. Now it's testing that the yield
is allowed, so it's not bad and the outer finally is irrelevant.
[ 1327110 ] wrong TypeError traceback in generator expressions
by removing the code that can stomp on the users' TypeError raised by the
iterable argument to ''.join() -- PySequence_Fast (now?) gives a perfectly
reasonable message itself. Also, a couple of tests.
Incorrect code was generated for:
foo(a = i for i in range(10))
This should have generated a SyntaxError. Fix the Grammar so
it raises a SyntaxError and test it.
I'm uncertain whether this should be backported. It makes
something that was Syntactically valid invalid. However,
the code would either be completely broken or do the wrong thing.
This change implements a new bytecode compiler, based on a
transformation of the parse tree to an abstract syntax defined in
Parser/Python.asdl.
The compiler implementation is not complete, but it is in stable
enough shape to run the entire test suite excepting two disabled
tests.
Problem: if two files are assigned the same inode
number by the filesystem, the second one will be added
as a hardlink to the first, which means that the
content will be lost.
The patched code checks if the file's st_nlink is
greater 1. So only for files that actually have several
links pointing to them hardlinks will be created, which
is what GNU tar does.
Will backport.
PyUnicode_DecodeCharmap() the accept a unicode string as the mapping
argument which is used as a mapping table.
This code isn't used by any of the codecs yet.
- SF Bug #772896, unknown encoding results in MemoryError, which is not helpful
I will only backport the segfault fix. I'll let Anthony decide if he wants
the other changes backported. I will do the backport if asked.
about illegal code points. The codec now supports PEP 293 style error handlers.
(This is a variant of the Nik Haldimann's patch that detects truncated data)
A new hashlib module to replace the md5 and sha modules. It adds
support for additional secure hashes such as SHA-256 and SHA-512. The
hashlib module uses OpenSSL for fast platform optimized
implementations of algorithms when available. The old md5 and sha
modules still exist as wrappers around hashlib to preserve backwards
compatibility.
Fix over-aggressive PyErr_Clear(). The same code fragment appears in
various guises in list.extend(), map(), filter(), zip(), and internally
in PySequence_Tuple().
a frozenset conversion when the initial search attempt fails with a
TypeError and the key is some type of set. Add a testcase.
* Eliminate a duplicate if-stmt.
s|=s, s&=s, s-=s, or s^=s). Add related tests.
* Improve names for several variables and functions.
* Provide alternate table access functions (next, contains, add, and discard)
that work with an entry argument instead of just a key. This improves
set-vs-set operations because we already have a hash value for each key
and can avoid unnecessary calls to PyObject_Hash(). Provides a 5% to 20%
speed-up for quick hashing elements like strings and integers. Provides
much more substantial improvements for slow hashing elements like tuples
or objects defining a custom __hash__() function.
* Have difference operations resize() when 1/5 of the elements are dummies.
Formerly, it was 1/6. The new ratio triggers less frequently and only
in cases that it can resize quicker and with greater benefit. The right
answer is probably either 1/4, 1/5, or 1/6. Picked the middle value for
an even trade-off between resize time and the space/time costs of dummy
entries.
- Handle both frozenset() and frozenset([]).
- Do not use singleton for frozenset subclasses.
- Finalize the singleton.
- Add test cases.
* Factor-out set_update_internal() from set_update(). Simplifies the
code for several internal callers.
* Factor constant expressions out of loop in set_merge_internal().
* Minor comment touch-ups.
[ 1229429 ] missing Py_DECREF in PyObject_CallMethod
Add a test in test_enumerate, which is a bit random, but suffices
(reversed_new calls PyObject_CallMethod under some circumstances).
Should significantly enhance the utility of the module by supporting
the creation of tools that modify the token stream and writeback the
modified result.
[ 1180995 ] binary formats for marshalling floats
Adds 2 new type codes for marshal (binary floats and binary complexes), a
new marshal version (2), updates MAGIC and fiddles the de-serializing of
code objects to be less likely to clobber the real reason for failing if
it fails.
[ 1181301 ] make float packing copy bytes when they can
which hasn't been reviewed, despite numerous threats to check it in
anyway if noone reviews it. Please read the diff on the checkin list,
at least!
The basic idea is to examine the bytes of some 'probe values' to see if
the current platform is a IEEE 754-ish platform, and if so
_PyFloat_{Pack,Unpack}{4,8} just copy bytes around.
The rest is hair for testing, and tests.
crashing, and indirectly on the fact that hash codes in
random.randrange(1000000000) were very unlikely to exhibit collisions.
To see the problem, replace this number with 500 and observe the crash on
either del target[key] or del keys[i].
The fix prevents recursive mutation, just as in the key insertion case.
conversion using the proper magic slot (e.g., __int__()). Also move conversion
code out of PyNumber_*() functions in the C API into the nb_* function.
