Also, add a clause to the big-if to handle message/delivery-status
content types. These create a message with subparts that are
Message instances, which best represent the header blocks of this
content type.
get_type(): Use a compiled regular expression, which can be shared.
_get_params_preserve(): A helper method which extracts the header's
parameter list preserving value quoting. I'm not sure that this
needs to be a public method. It's necessary because we want
get_param() and friends to return the unquoted parameter value,
however we want the quote-preserved form for set_boundary().
get_params(), get_param(), set_boundary(): Implement in terms of
_get_params_preserve().
walk(): Yield ourself first, then recurse over our subparts (if any).
Text.py and class Text => MIMEText.py and MIMEText
MessageRFC822.py and class MessageRFC822 => MIMEMessage.py and MIMEMessage
These are renamed so as to be more consistent; these are MIME specific
derived classes for when creating the object model out of whole cloth.
_handle_text(): If the payload is None, then just return (i.e. don't
write anything). Subparts of message/delivery-status types
will have this property since they are just blocks of headers.
Also, when raising the TypeError, include the type of the
payload in the error message.
_handle_multipart(), _handle_message(): When creating a clone of self,
pass in our _mangle_from_ and maxheaderlen flags so the clone
has the same behavior.
_handle_message_delivery_status(): New method to do the proper
printing of message/delivery-status type messages. These have
to be handled differently than other message/* types because
their payloads are subparts containing just blocks of headers.
In class DecodedGenerator:
_dispatch(): Skip over multipart/* messages since we don't care
about them, and don't want the non-text format to appear in
the printed results.

regrtest can tell test_support the value of sys.stdout at the time
regrtest.main() started, and test_support can pass that out later to anyone

- Made cls.__module__ writable.
- Ensure that obj.__dict__ is returned as {}, not None, even upon first
reference; it simply springs into life when you ask for it.
(*) The pickling support is provisional for the following reasons:
- It doesn't support classes with __slots__.
- It relies on additional support in copy_reg.py: the C method
__reduce__, defined in the object class, really calls calling
copy_reg._reduce(obj). Eventually the Python code in copy_reg.py
needs to be migrated to C, but I'd like to experiment with the
Python implementation first. The _reduce() code also relies on an
additional helper function, _reconstructor(), defined in
copy_reg.py; this should also be reimplemented in C.

show up in this section too. I don't think it's worth a separate
section to distinguish them from non-callable attrs, and there's no
obvious reliable way to distinguish callable from non-callable attrs
anyway.

same. I hope the test for structural equivalence is stringent enough.
It only allows the assignment if the old and new types:
- have the same basic size
- have the same item size
- have the same dict offset
- have the same weaklist offset
- have the same GC flag bit
- have a common base that is the same except for maybe the dict and
weaklist (which may have been added separately at the same offsets
in both types)
always been close to useless, because the <small>-ified docstrings
were too small to read, even after cranking up my default font size
just for pydoc. Now it reads fine under my defaults (as does most
of the web <0.5 wink>). If it's thought important to play tricks
with font size, tough, then someone should rework pydoc to use style
sheets, and (more) predictable percentage-of-default size controls.
+ Tried to ensure that all <dt> and <dd> tags are closed. I've read (but
don't know) that some browsers get confused if they're not, and esp.
when style sheets are in use too.
properties: the docstring (if any) is displayed, and the getter, setter
and deleter (if any) functions are named. All that is shown indented
after the property name.
+ Text-mode pydoc class display now draws a horizontal line between
class attribute groups (similar to GUI mode -- while visually more
intrusive in text mode, it's still an improvement).
- property() now takes 4 keyword arguments: fget, fset, fdel, doc.
Note that the real purpose of the 'f' prefix is to make fdel fit in
('del' is a keyword, so can't used as a keyword argument name).
- These map to visible readonly attributes 'fget', 'fset', 'fdel',
and '__doc__' in the property object.
- fget/fset/fdel weren't discoverable from Python before.
- __doc__ is new, and allows to associate a docstring with a property.
declarations and weird markup that we used to accept & ignore that recent
versions raised an exception for; the original behavior has been restored
and augmented (the user can decide what to do if they care; the default is
to ignore it as done in early versions).
Use a new internal method, error(), consistently to raise parse errors;
the new base class also uses this.
Adjust the parse_comment() method to return the new offset into the buffer
instead of the number of characters scanned; this was the only helper
method that did it this way, so we have better consistency now. Required
to share the new base class.
This fixes SF bug #448482 and #453706.
and HTMLParser modules (and indirectly for the htmllib.HTMLParser class).
This has all the support for scanning over DOCTYPE declarations; it warrants
having a base class since this is a fair amount of tedious code (since it's
fairly strict), and should be in a separate module to avoid compiling many
REs that are not used (which would happen if this were placed in either then
sgmllib or HTMLParser module).
+ Minor code cleanup, generalization and simplification.
+ "Do something" to make the attribute aggregation more apparent:
- In text mode, stick a "* " at the front of subgroup header lines.
- In GUI mode, display a horizontal rule between subgroups.
For GUI mode, this is a huge improvement, at least under IE.
mode (identify the source class for class attrs; segregate attrs according
to source class, and whether class method, static method, property, plain
method, or data; display data attrs; display docstrings for data attrs
when possible).
Alas, this is mondo ugly, and I'm no HTML guy. Part of the problem is
that pydoc's GUI mode has always been ugly under IE, largely because
<small> under IE renders docstrings unreadably small (while sometimes
non-docstring text is painfully large). Another part is that these
segregated listings of attrs would *probably* look much better as bulleted
lists. Alas, when I tried that, the bullets all ended up on lines by
themselves, before the method names; this is apparently because pydoc
(ab?)uses definition lists for format effects, and at least under IE
if a definition list is the first chunk of a list item, it gets rendered
on a line after the <li> bullet.
An HTML wizard would certainly be welcomed here.
This almost entirely replaces how pydoc pumps out class docs, but only
in text mode (like help(whatever) from a Python shell), not in GUI mode.
A class C's attrs are now grouped by the class in which they're defined,
attrs defined by C first, then inherited attrs grouped by alphabetic order
of the defining classes' names.
Within each of those groups, the attrs are subgrouped according to whether
they're plain methods, class methods, static methods, properties, or data.
Note that pydoc never dumped class data attrs before. If a class data
attr is implemented via a data descriptor, the data docstring (if any)
is also displayed (e.g., file.softspace).
Within a subgroup, the attrs are listed alphabetically.
This is a friggin' mess, and there are bound to be glitches. Please
beat on it and complain! Here are three glitches:
1. __new__ gets classifed as 'data', for some reason. This will
have to get fixed in inspect.py, but since the latter is already
looking for any clue that something is a method, pydoc will
almost certainly not know what to do with it when its classification
changes.
2. properties are special-cased to death. Unlike any other kind of
function or method, they don't have a __name__ attr, so none of
pydoc's usual code can deal with them. Worse, the getter and
setter and del'er methods associated with a property don't appear
to be discoverable from Python, so there's really nothing I can
think of to do here beyond just listing their names.
Note that a property can't be given a docstring, either (or at least
I've been unable to sneak one in) -- perhaps the property()
constructor could take an optional doc argument?
3. In a nested-scopes world, pydoc still doesn't know anything about
nesting, so e.g. classes nested in functions are effectively invisible.
<http://sf.net/projects/mimelib>. There /are/ API differences between
mimelib and email, but most of the implementations are shared (except
where cool Py2.2 stuff like generators are used).
point out, pydoc doesn't tell you where class attributes were defined,
gets several new 2.2 features wrong, and isn't aware of some new features
checked in on Thursday <wink>. pydoc is hampered in part because
inspect.py has the same limitations. Alas, I can't think of a way to
fix this within the current architecture of inspect/pydoc: it's simply
not possible in 2.2 to figure out everything needed just from examining
the object you get back from class.attr. You also need the class
context, and the method resolution order, and tests against various things
that simply didn't exist before. OTOH, knowledge of how to do that is
getting quite complex, so doesn't belong in pydoc.
classify_class_attrs takes a different approach, analyzing all
the class attrs "at once", and returning the most interesting stuff for
each, all in one gulp. pydoc needs to be reworked to use this for
classes (instead of the current "filter dir(class) umpteen times against
assorted predicates" approach).
easy for 2.2 new-style classes, but trickier for classic classes, and
different approaches are needed "depending". The function will allow
later code to treat all flavors of classes uniformly.
somewhere inside a line, use ndiff so that intraline difference marking

easiest to produce with difflib, but this becomes a liability when the
output is voluminous and there are only a few differences.

to raise TypeError. In practice, a disallowed attribute assignment
can raise either TypeError or AttributeError (and it's unclear which
is better). So allow either. (Yes, this is in anticipation of a
code change that switches the exception raised. :-)

particular attribute to a given value is disallowed, and also that
deleting that same attribute is disallowed. Use this in the

Once upon a time, I put together a little function
that tries to find the canonical filename for a given
pathname on POSIX. I've finally gotten around to
turning it into a proper patch with documentation.
On non-POSIX, I made it an alias for 'abspath', as
that's the behavior on POSIX when no symlinks are
encountered in the path.
Example:

There are good and bad reasons for this. The good reason is to support
dir() "like before" on objects of extension types that haven't migrated
to the class introspection API yet. The bad reason is that Python's own
method objects are such a type, and this is the quickest way to get their
im_self etc attrs to "show up" via dir(). It looks much messier to move
them to the new scheme, as their current getattr implementation presents
a view of their attrs that's a untion of their own attrs plus their
im_func's attrs. In particular, methodobject.__dict__ actually returns
methodobject.im_func.__dict__, and if that's important to preserve it
doesn't seem to fit the class introspection model at all.
Both int and long multiplication are changed to be more careful in
their assumptions about when one of the arguments is a sequence: the
assumption that at least one of the arguments must be an int (or long,
respectively) is still held, but the assumption that these don't smell
like sequences is no longer true: a subtype of int or long may well
have a sequence-repeat thingie!
Remove the option to have nested scopes or old LGB scopes. This has a
large impact on the code base, by removing the need for two variants

This patch adds the features from RFC 2487 (Secure SMTP
over TLS) to the smtplib module:
- A starttls() function
- Wrapper classes that simulate enough of sockets and
files for smtplib, but really wrap a SSLObject
- reset the list of known SMTP extensions at each call
of ehlo(). This should have been the case anyway.
keys are true strings -- no subclasses need apply. This may be debatable.
The problem is that a str subclass may very well want to override __eq__
and/or __hash__ (see the new example of case-insensitive strings in
test_descr), but go-fast shortcuts for strings are ubiquitous in our dicts
(and subclass overrides aren't even looked for then). Another go-fast
reason for the change is that PyCheck_StringExact() is a quicker test
than PyCheck_String(), and we make such a test on virtually every access
to every dict.
OTOH, a str subclass may also be perfectly happy using the base str eq
and hash, and this change slows them a lot. But those cases are still
hypothetical, while Python's own reliance on true-string dicts is not.
just by doing type(f) where f is any file object. This left a hole in
restricted execution mode that rexec.py can't plug by itself (although it
can plug part of it; the rest is plugged in fileobject.c now).
on to the tp_new slot (if non-NULL), as well as to the tp_init slot (if
any). A sane type implementing both tp_new and tp_init should probably
pay attention to the arguments in only one of them.
Andrew quite correctly notices that the next() method isn't quite what
we need, since it returns None upon end instead of raising
StopIteration. His fix is easy enough, using iter(self.next, None)
instead.
with the same value instead. This ensures that a string (or string
subclass) object's ob_sinterned pointer is always a str (or NULL), and
that the dict of interned strings only has strs as keys.
+ These were leaving the hash fields at 0, which all string and unicode
routines believe is a legitimate hash code. As a result, hash() applied
to str and unicode subclass instances always returned 0, which in turn
confused dict operations, etc.
+ Changed local names "new"; no point to antagonizing C++ compilers.

been caught.
Question: Should we complain if someone tries to intern an instance of
a string subclass? I hate to slow any code on those paths.

(With slight layout changes to conform to docstrings guidelines and to
prevent a line longer than 78 characters. Also fixed some docstrings
that Gerhard didn't touch.)
tuple(i) repaired to return a true tuple when i is an instance of a
tuple subclass.
Added PyTuple_CheckExact macro.
PySequence_Tuple(): if a tuple-like object isn't exactly a tuple, it's
not safe to return the object as-is -- make a new tuple of it instead.
Given an immutable type M, and an instance I of a subclass of M, the
constructor call M(I) was just returning I as-is; but it should return a
new instance of M. This fixes it for M in {int, long}. Strings, floats
and tuples remain to be done.
Added new macros PyInt_CheckExact and PyLong_CheckExact, to more easily
distinguish between "is" and "is a" (i.e., only an int passes
PyInt_CheckExact, while any sublass of int passes PyInt_Check).
Added private API function _PyLong_Copy.
