Andrew M. Kuchling 9c67ee08d8 Tidy up the document in preparation for 2.5alpha1. Hope I didn't break the markup... 2006-04-04 19:07:27 +00:00
Walter Dörwald f7bc5f9455 Change the example classes UnicodeReader and UnicodeWriter so 
that they work with all encodings. For UnicodeReader the real
input stream is wrapped in a line iterator that reencodes the
input to UTF-8. For UnicodeWriter the UTF-8 encoded output is
written to a queue for where it is reencoded to the target
encoding and written to the real output stream.
 2006-04-04 17:32:49 +00:00
David Goodger cb30f97bd3 added another example of Unicode CSV parsing; reworked the example text a bit; corrected notice in the intro and added a link to the examples 2006-04-04 03:05:44 +00:00

This was a fair amount of rework of the patch.  Refactored test_fork1 so it
could be reused by the new tests for wait3/4.  Also made them into new style
unittests (derive from unittest.TestCase).

Anthony Baxter fa86907aae SF [ 1231053 ] audioop - alaw encoding/decoding added, code updated 
This patch adds a-LAW encoding to audioop and replaces the old
u-LAW encoding/decoding code with the current code from sox.

Possible issues: the code from sox uses int16_t.

Guido van Rossum c2e20744b2 PEP 343 -- the with-statement. 
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).

Thomas Wouters dca3b9c797 PEP 308 implementation, including minor refdocs and some testcases. It 
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:

>>> (x for x in lambda:0)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: iteration over non-sequence

changes into

>>> (x for x in lambda: 0)
  File "<stdin>", line 1
    (x for x in lambda: 0)
                     ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Since there's no way the former version can be useful, it's probably a
bugfix ;)
 2006-02-27 00:24:13 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 1968ad32cd - Patch 1433928: 
- 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).

Tim Peters d34350e47e At Brian Wichmann's request, added words warning against 
using the old Wichmann-Hill generator,  Also pointed to
a newer version of his generator, and weakened the claim
about what jumpahead() does now.

Note sure I got the LaTeX entirely correct for \seeurl.
If it's broken, please fix it ;-)

Bugfix candidate!  (These changes make just as much
sense for 2.4.)

Armin Rigo a871ef2b3e Added the cProfile module. 
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!

Neal Norwitz 0e6bc8c260 Patch #1407135, bug #1424041, make mmap.mmap(-1, length) work the same 
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.

Andrew M. Kuchling b164dafebb [Patch #1375417] Massive rearrangement of the Library Reference. 
Fred approved just checking it in; he may make further fixes.

The change shrinks the 'Generic OS' and other OS chapters, which had become
something of a dumping ground for random modules.  It differs from the
last version of the patch: 1) I've added introductions for the new chapters (still missing a few -- search for 'intro')
2) a few modules have been rearranged slightly from the version in the patch

Add C API function Py_GetBuildNumber(), add it to the interactive prompt

attribute.  The build number is a string instead of an int because it may
contain a trailing 'M' if there are local modifications.
