that won't be right when mkhowto is called with --numeric (as it is
for the Python Tutorial). Save the actual name we use when we build
the table of contents, then use that in the page head metadata. The
node2label.pl script will munge this properly when --numeric isn't
given, so this works in both cases.
Closes SF bug #761830.
If the callback raised an exception but did not set curexc_traceback,
the trace function was called with PyTrace_RETURN. That is, the trace
function was called with an exception set. The main loop detected the
exception when the trace function returned; it complained and disabled
tracing.
Fix the logic error so that PyTrace_RETURN only occurs if the callback
returned normally.
The trace function must be called for exceptions, too. So we had
to add new functionality to call with PyTrace_EXCEPTION. (Leads to a
rather ugly ifdef / else block that contains only a '}'.)
Reverse the logic and name of NOFIX_TRACE to FIX_TRACE.
Joint work with Fred.
The interning of short strings violates the refcnt==1 assumption for
_PyString_Resize().
A simple fix is to boost the initial value of "totalnew" by 1.
Combined with an NULL argument to PyString_FromStringAndSize(),
this assures that resulting format string is not interned.
This will remain true even if the implementation of
PyString_FromStringAndSize() changes because only the uninitialized
strings that can be interned are those of zero length.
Added a test case.
The constructor() call only made sense when it registered the
constructor as safe for unpickling. We should probably remove the
module-global function, but need to worry about backwards
compatibility.
In response to "shouldn't the client close the file?", the answer is
"no". The original design behind HTTPConnection is that the client did
not have to worry about it. The response would close itself when you
read the last of the data from it. This closing also dealt with
allowing the connection to perform another request/response (if it was
a persistent connection).
However... the auto-close behavior broke compatibility with the
classic httplib.HTTP class' behavior when a zero-length response body
was present. In that situation, the HTTPResponse object was
auto-closing it since there was no data present, and for an HTTP/1.0
connection-close socket (or an HTTP/0.9 request) connection, that also
ended up closing the socket. When an httplib.HTTP user went to read
the socket... boom. A patch to correct the auto-close (for compat with
old httplib users) was added in rev 1.22.
But for non-zero-length *chunked* bodies, we should keep the
auto-close behavior. The library user is not reading the socket (they
can't cuz of the chunked response we just got done handling), so they
should be immune to the response closing the socket. In fact, I would
like to see (one day) the auto-close restored, and the HTTP subclass
would simply have a flag to disable that behavior (for back-compat
purposes).
fix the hangs on Win98SE when starting IDLE via "python" from a DOS box,
but did appear to make them harder to provoke. I closed that bug report
as being hopeless (and if someone wants to open it again, don't dare
assign it to me again <0.1 wink>).
