This patch changes the way the string .encode() method works slightly
...
and introduces a new method .decode().
The major change is that strg.encode() will no longer try to convert
Unicode returns from the codec into a string, but instead pass along
the Unicode object as-is. The same is now true for all other codec
return types. The underlying C APIs were changed accordingly.
Note that even though this does have the potential of breaking
existing code, the chances are low since conversion from Unicode
previously took place using the default encoding which is normally
set to ASCII rendering this auto-conversion mechanism useless for
most Unicode encodings.
The good news is that you can now use .encode() and .decode() with
much greater ease and that the door was opened for better accessibility
of the builtin codecs.
As demonstration of the new feature, the patch includes a few new
codecs which allow string to string encoding and decoding (rot13,
hex, zip, uu, base64).

This patch originated from an idea by Martin v. Loewis who submitted a
...
patch for sharing single character Unicode objects.
Martin's patch had to be reworked in a number of ways to take Unicode
resizing into consideration as well. Here's what the updated patch
implements:
* Single character Unicode strings in the Latin-1 range are shared
(not only ASCII chars as in Martin's original patch).
* The ASCII and Latin-1 codecs make use of this optimization,
providing a noticable speedup for single character strings. Most
Unicode methods can use the optimization as well (by virtue
of using PyUnicode_FromUnicode()).
* Some code cleanup was done (replacing memcpy with Py_UNICODE_COPY)
* The PyUnicode_Resize() can now also handle the case of resizing
unicode_empty which previously resulted in an error.
* Modified the internal API _PyUnicode_Resize() and
the public PyUnicode_Resize() API to handle references to
shared objects correctly. The _PyUnicode_Resize() signature
changed due to this.
* Callers of PyUnicode_FromUnicode() may now only modify the Unicode
object contents of the returned object in case they called the API
with NULL as content template.
Note that even though this patch passes the regression tests, there
may still be subtle bugs in the sharing code.

Make reference to the Library Reference in the "What Now?" chapter a

hyperlink.
Fix two English usage errors caught by Jan Wells: Changed "subsequence"

the first paragraph of the "What Now?" chapter.
2001-04-03 17:41:56 +00:00

Allow the <author/> element to appear before a paragraph without being

old KDE 1 "kfm" command.
2001-03-26 16:17:21 +00:00

Note missing explanation
2001-03-26 13:34:53 +00:00
c8da0f966f
Document use_rawinput. (Although now that I think more about it, a
...
better solution would have been to factor out the raw_input() call and
make it into an overridable method. Oh well, maybe later...)
2001-03-24 19:17:35 +00:00
8f6df46d40

3e8f921fb9
Lots of small changes to make this work with the Python DOM bindings
...
(minidom in particular); it was using PyDOM which is now obsolete.
Only write the output file on success -- this avoids updating the timestamp
on the file on failure, which confuses "make".
2001-03-23 17:01:47 +00:00
2262a80fb3
Pick up the "encode" function from esistools instead of defining our own
...
(broken) version.
Remove Conversion.err_write() -- use dbgmsg() consistently.

...
statement".
2001-03-23 16:47:11 +00:00
f6c115ff2f
Re-write to no longer depend on an old version of PyXML. This now
...
implements a SAX XMLReader interface instead of the old Builder interface
used with PyDOM (now obsolete).
This only depends on the standard library, not PyXML.
2001-03-23 16:42:08 +00:00
a4699a71b8
Pick the "escape" function from the standard library instead of from PyXML.

Revert to ver 1.22, which was the version before the nested scopes

that's okay.

Add sys.excepthook.
...
Update docstring and library reference section on 'sys' module.
New API PyErr_Display, just for displaying errors, called by excepthook.
Uncaught exceptions now call sys.excepthook; if that fails, we fall back
to calling PyErr_Display directly.
Also comes with sys.__excepthook__ and sys.__displayhook__.
2001-03-23 02:46:52 +00:00

Be more clear about the specific rules for supporting the cyclic GC in an
...
extension object. Also included an example showing exactly what needs to
be done and nothing else.
This closes SF bug #228591 .
2001-03-22 16:30:17 +00:00
c392b570db
Integrated an expanded version of some text from Neil Schemenauer about
...
supporting cyclic garbage collection. (This is not all of it, but I'm
taking a break!)
Also fixed some markup nits.

Moved the description of the tzparse module to the "Obsolete" section

2001-03-16 20:39:41 +00:00

Finally fill in the documentation for the PyDict_Next() function. It is

different enough to actually require an explanation. ;-)
Fix a couple of PyDictObject* types that should be PyObject* types.
2001-03-16 15:41:29 +00:00
