* Enable building MSI, zip and nuget packages when Py_OutDir is set.
* Restore the --build option, which got reverted at some point.
* Ensure output directory is created.
* Enables BuildForDaily and DailyBuildVersion options for nuget package.
The Windows build now depends on Python 3.6 to fetch externals, but it will be downloaded via NuGet (which is downloaded via PowerShell) if it is not available via `py -3.6`. This means the only thing that must be installed on a modern Windows box to do a full build of CPython with all extensions is Visual Studio.
Also fixes an outdated note about _lzma in PCbuild/readme.txt
The function '_PyArg_ParseStack()' and
'_PyArg_UnpackStack' were failing (with error
"XXX() takes Y argument (Z given)") before
the function '_PyArg_NoStackKeywords()' was called.
Thus, the latter did not raise its more meaningful
error : "XXX() takes no keyword arguments".
Don't rebuild generated files based on file modification time
anymore, the action is now explicit. Replace "make touch"
with "make regen-all".
Changes:
* Remove "make touch", Tools/hg/hgtouch.py and .hgtouch
* Add a new "make regen-all" command to rebuild all generated files
* Add subcommands to only generate specific files:
- regen-ast: Include/Python-ast.h and Python/Python-ast.c
- regen-grammar: Include/graminit.h and Python/graminit.c
- regen-importlib: Python/importlib_external.h and Python/importlib.h
- regen-opcode: Include/opcode.h
- regen-opcode-targets: Python/opcode_targets.h
- regen-typeslots: Objects/typeslots.inc
* Rename PYTHON_FOR_GEN to PYTHON_FOR_REGEN
* pgen is now only built by by "make regen-grammar"
* Add $(srcdir)/ prefix to paths to source files to handle correctly
compilation outside the source directory
Note: $(PYTHON_FOR_REGEN) is no more used nor needed by "make"
default target building Python.
* bpo-29463: Add docstring field to some AST nodes.
ClassDef, ModuleDef, FunctionDef, and AsyncFunctionDef has docstring
field for now. It was first statement of there body.
* fix document. thanks travis!
* doc fixes
Issue #29259:
* Detect PyCFunction is the current frame, not only in the older frame
* Ignore PyCFunction_Call() since it now calls _PyCFunction_FastCallDict(), and
_PyCFunction_FastCallDict() is already detected
Issue #29286. Use METH_FASTCALL calling convention instead of METH_VARARGS to
parse "boring" position arguments. METH_FASTCALL is faster since it avoids the
creation of a temporary tuple to pass positional arguments.
Replace PyArg_UnpackTuple() with _PyArg_UnpackStack()+_PyArg_NoStackKeywords().
Issue #29286. Use METH_FASTCALL calling convention instead of METH_VARARGS to
parse position arguments. METH_FASTCALL is faster since it avoids the creation
of a temporary tuple to pass positional arguments.
Issue #29259: Write fast path in _PyCFunction_FastCallKeywords() for
METH_FASTCALL, avoid the creation of a temporary dictionary for keyword
arguments.
Cleanup also _PyCFunction_FastCallDict():
* Don't dereference func before checking that it's not NULL
* Move code to raise the "no keyword argument" exception into a new
no_keyword_error label.
Update python-gdb.py for the change.
