errno (and LastError, on Windows).
ctypes maintains a module-global, but thread-local, variable that
contains an error number; called 'ctypes_errno' for this discussion.
This variable is a private copy of the systems 'errno' value; the copy
is swapped with the 'errno' variable on several occasions.
Foreign functions created with CDLL(..., use_errno=True), when called,
swap the values just before the actual function call, and swapped
again immediately afterwards. The 'use_errno' parameter defaults to
False, in this case 'ctypes_errno' is not touched.
The values are also swapped immeditately before and after ctypes
callback functions are called, if the callbacks are constructed using
the new optional use_errno parameter set to True: CFUNCTYPE(..., use_errno=TRUE)
or WINFUNCTYPE(..., use_errno=True).
Two new ctypes functions are provided to access the 'ctypes_errno'
value from Python:
- ctypes.set_errno(value) sets ctypes_errno to 'value', the previous
ctypes_errno value is returned.
- ctypes.get_errno() returns the current ctypes_errno value.
---
On Windows, the same scheme is implemented for the error value which
is managed by the GetLastError() and SetLastError() windows api calls.
The ctypes functions are 'ctypes.set_last_error(value)' and
'ctypes.get_last_error()', the CDLL and WinDLL optional parameter is
named 'use_last_error', defaults to False.
---
On Windows, TlsSetValue and TlsGetValue calls are used to provide
thread local storage for the variables; ctypes compiled with __GNUC__
uses __thread variables.
* Expand comments.
* Swap variable names in the sum_exact code so that x and y
are consistently chosen as the larger and smaller magnitude
values respectively.
Renamed copy_reg to copyreg in the standard library, to avoid
spurious warnings and ease later merging to py3k branch. Public
documentation remains intact.

being parsed as 'NUMBER', like expected. Also corrected the docs about
converter names being case-sensitive. They aren't any longer.
cmath module is loaded) instead of statically. This fixes compile-time
problems on platforms where HUGE_VAL is an extern variable rather than
a constant.
Thanks Hirokazu Yamamoto for the patch.
The patch also adds acosh, asinh, atanh, log1p and copysign to all platforms. Finally it fixes differences between platforms like different results or exceptions for edge cases. Have fun :)
'warnings' code in places where it was previously not possible (e.g., the
parser). It could also potentially lead to a speed-up in interpreter start-up
if the C version of the code (_warnings) is imported over the use of the
Python version in key places.
Closes issue #1631171.
-J and -X are now reserved for Jython and non-standard arguments (e.g. IronPython). I've added some extra comments to make sure the reservation don't get missed in the future.
It was only used as a helper in types.py to access types (GetSetDescriptorType and MemberDescriptorType),
when they can easily be obtained with python code.
These expressions even work with Jython.
I don't know what the future of the types module is; (cf. discussion in http://bugs.python.org/issue1605 )
at least this change makes it simpler.
I applied the same changes manually to VS7.1 and VC6 files; completely untested.
(Christian, don't try too hard merging this change into py3k.
It will be easier to do the same work again on the branch)

2.x signed value. Also, don't waste space on a table full of unsigned longs

a 64-bit unix for some strange reason).

platforms with a 64-bit long.
The Alpha/Tru64 test problem is a problem in either tarfile or test_tarfile,
not zlib.
crc32 and adler32 return 32-bit values. by using a long thats larger than
32-bits in these functions they were prevented from wrapping around to their
signed 32-bit value that we want them to return in python 2.x.
which made the return value signed. On the Alpha that also lost data
since sizeof(int) != sizeof(long) and apparently adler32/crc32 return
64 bits of data. This change keeps the signedness and continues to store the
data in a long rather than an int as was the case before r61449.
The patch adds wrappers for the Linux epoll syscalls and the BSD kqueue syscalls. Thanks to Thomas Herve and the Twisted people for their support and help.

regardless of the native sizeof(long) used in the integer object.
This somewhat odd behavior of returning a signed is maintained in 2.x for
compatibility reasons of always returning an integer rather than a long object.

The bundled libffi copy is now in sync with the recently released

Instead, static configuration with files from pyobjc is used.
My tests don't show the promised speed up of 10%. The code is as fast as the old code for simple cases and slightly faster for complex cases with several of args and kwargs. But the patch simplifies the code, too.
were two module_methods and the one used depended on the order the

it is not exported and the correct version is picked up.
* Fix-up issues pointed-out by Neal Norwitz.
* Add extensive comments.
* The lz->result variable is now a tuple instead of a list.
* Use fast macro getitem/setitem calls so most code is in-line.
* Re-use the result tuple if available (modify in-place instead of copy).
Highlights:
- Adding PyObject_Format.
- Adding string.Format class.
- Adding __format__ for str, unicode, int, long, float, datetime.
- Adding builtin format.
- Adding ''.format and u''.format.
- str/unicode fixups for formatters.
The files in Objects/stringlib that implement PEP 3101 (stringdefs.h,
unicodedefs.h, formatter.h, string_format.h) are identical in trunk
and py3k. Any changes from here on should be made to trunk, and
changes will propogate to py3k).

In python codebase, all occurrences of Py_[X]DECREF(xxx->yyy) are suspect,
except when they appear in tp_new or tp_dealloc functions, or when
the member cannot be of a user-defined class.
Note that tp_init is not safe.
I do have a (crashing) example for every changed line.
Is it worth adding them to the test suite?

s = cStringIO.StringIO(SpecialStr("text"))
s.close() # Segfault

from the WeakValueDictionary was slower by nearly a factor of 3.
To avoid leaks, weakref proxies for the array types are put into the
cache dict, with weakref callbacks that removes the entries when the
type goes away.
a default timeout has been set, by using getsockopt() to get the error

var_decl: Declared variable "stm" without initializer

ctypes takes some liberties when creating python types: it modifies the types'
__dict__ directly, bypassing all the machinery of type objects which deal with
special methods. And this broke recent optimisations of method lookup.
Now we try to modify the type with more "official" functions.
SRE_MATCH so that signal handlers can be invoked during
long regular expression matches. It also adds a new
error return value indicating that an exception
occurred in a signal handler during the match, allowing
exceptions in the signal handler to propagate up to the
main loop. Thanks Josh Hoyt and Ralf Schmitt.
This prevents traceback prints pointing to files in this way:

round included:
* Revert round to its 2.6 behavior (half away from 0).
* Because round, floor, and ceil always return float again, it's no
longer necessary to have them delegate to __xxx___, so I've ripped
that out of their implementations and the Real ABC. This also helps
in implementing types that work in both 2.6 and 3.0: you return int
from the __xxx__ methods, and let it get enabled by the version
upgrade.
* Make pow(-1, .5) raise a ValueError again.

This adds signal.set_wakeup_fd(fd) which sets a file descriptor to

- Backported a workaround for a bug in SQLite 3.2.x/3.3.x versions where a

The new msvc9compiler module supports VS 2005 and VS 2008. I've also fixed build_ext to support PCbuild8 and PCbuild9 and backported my fix for xxmodule.c from py3k. The old code msvccompiler is still in place in case somebody likes to build an extension with VS 2003 or earlier.
I've also updated the cygwin compiler module for VS 2005 and VS 2008. It works with VS 2005 but I'm unable to test it with VS 2008. We have to wait for a new version of cygwin.
Georg Brandl has added fchmod() and fchown(). I've contributed lchown but I'm not able to test it on Linux. However it should be available on Mac and some other flavors of Unix.
I've made a quick test of fchmod() and fchown() on my system. They are working as expected.
I've finished the last task for the PCbuild9 directory today. I don't think there is much left to do. Now you can all play around with the shiny new VS 2008 and try the PGO builds. I was able to get a speed improvement of about 10% on py3k.
Have fun! :)

Add maxlen support to deque() and fixup docs.
Partially fix __reduce__(). The None as a third arg was no longer supported.
Still needs work on __reduce__() to handle recursive inputs.
adding the 'makefile' method to ssl.SSLSocket, and importing the
requisite fakefile class from socket.py, and making the appropriate
changes to it to make it use the SSL connection.
Added sample HTTPS server to test_ssl.py, and test that uses it.
Change SSL tests to use https://svn.python.org/, instead of
www.sf.net and pop.gmail.com.
Added utility function to ssl module, get_server_certificate,
to wrap up the several things to be done to pull a certificate
from a remote server.
Make sure the type of the return value of re.sub(x, y, z) is the type
of y+x (i.e. unicode if either is unicode, str if they are both str)
even if there are no substitutions or if x==z (which triggered various
special cases in join_list()).
Could be backported to 2.5; no need to port to 3.0.
* Much expanded test suite:
All protocols tested against all other protocols.
All protocols tested with all certificate options.
Tests for bad key and bad cert.
Test of STARTTLS functionality.
Test of RAND_* functions.
* Fixes for threading/malloc bug.
* Issue 1065 fixed:
sslsocket class renamed to SSLSocket.
sslerror class renamed to SSLError.
Function "wrap_socket" now used to wrap an existing socket.
* Issue 1583946 finally fixed:
Support for subjectAltName added.
Subject name now returned as proper DN list of RDNs.
* SSLError exported from socket as "sslerror".
* RAND_* functions properly exported from ssl.py.
* Documentation improved:

python-dev discussion here:
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2007-July/073749.html
I chose IOError rather than EnvironmentError as the base class since
socket objects are often used as transparent duck typed file objects
in code already prepared to deal with IOError exceptions.
also a minor fix:
urllib2 - fix a couple places where IOError was raised rather than URLError.
for better or worse, URLError already inherits from IOError so
this won't break any existing code.
test_urllib2net - replace bad ftp urls.
