copy. This will hopefully catch problems where directories are added
under Lib/ but not to Makefile.pre.in. This breaks out the 2 runs
of the test suite with and without -O which is also nicer.
omit a default "error" argument for NULL pointer. This allows
the parser to take a codec from cjkcodecs again.
(Reported by Taewook Kang and reviewed by Walter Doerwald)
both a subclass of Warning and a subclass of types.ClassType. The latter is no
longer true thanks to new-style exceptions.
Closes bug #1510580. Thanks to AMK for the test.
issues that crop up from time to time, but this change seems to have been
pretty stable (no spurious warnings) for about a week.
Other modules which use threads may require similar use of
threading_setup/threading_cleanup from test_support.
now works reliably. It has been updated to use automatic BerkeleyDB
deadlock detection and the bsddb.dbutils.DeadlockWrap wrapper to retry
database calls that would previously deadlock. [SF python bug #775414]
adjacent triples in the result list describe non-adjacent matching
blocks. That's _nice_ to have, and Guido said he wanted it.
Not a bugfix candidate: Guido or not ;-), this changes visible
endcase semantics (note that some tests had to change), and
nothing about this was documented before. Since it was working
as designed, and behavior was consistent with the docs, it wasn't
"a bug".
arguments in reverse, the interpreter would infinitely recourse trying to get a
coercion that worked. So put in a recursion check after a coercion is made and
the next call to attempt to use the coerced values.
Fixes bug #992017 and closes crashers/coerce.py .
Heavily revised, comprising revisions:
46640 - original trunk revision (backed out in r46655)
46647 - markup fix (backed out in r46655)
46692:46918 merged from branch aimacintyre-sf1454481
branch tested on buildbots (Windows buildbots had problems
not related to these changes).
the char buffer was requested. Now it actually returns the char buffer if
available or raises a TypeError if it isn't (as is raised for the other buffer
types if they are not present but requested).
Not a backport candidate since it does change semantics of the buffer object
(although it could be argued this is enough of a bug to bother backporting).
aborts the db transaction safely when a modifier callback fails.
Fixes SF python patch/bug #1408584.
Also cleans up the bsddb.dbtables docstrings since thats the only
documentation that exists for that unadvertised module. (people
really should really just use sqlite3)
46640 Patch #1454481: Make thread stack size runtime tunable.
46647 Markup fix
The first is causing many buildbots to fail test runs, and there
are multiple causes with seemingly no immediate prospects for
repairing them. See python-dev discussion.
Note that a branch can (and should) be created for resolving these
problems, like
svn copy svn+ssh://svn.python.org/python/trunk -r46640 svn+ssh://svn.python.org/python/branches/NEW_BRANCH
followed by merging rev 46647 to the new branch.
to each allocated block. This was using 4 bytes for each such
piece of info regardless of platform. This didn't really matter
before (proof: no bug reports, and the debug-build obmalloc would
have assert-failed if it was ever asked for a chunk of memory
>= 2**32 bytes), since container indices were plain ints. But after
the Py_ssize_t changes, it's at least theoretically possible to
allocate a list or string whose guts exceed 2**32 bytes, and the
PYMALLOC_DEBUG routines would fail then (having only 4 bytes
to record the originally requested size).
Now we use sizeof(size_t) bytes for each of a PYMALLOC_DEBUG
build's extra debugging fields. This won't make any difference
on 32-bit boxes, but will add 16 bytes to each allocation in
a debug build on a 64-bit box.
the output required more than one line. "Small" dicts got
displayed in seemingly random order (the hash-induced order
produced by dict.__repr__). None of this was documented.
Now pprint functions always sort dicts by key, and the docs
promise it.
This was proposed and agreed to during the PyCon 2006 core
sprint -- I just didn't have time for it before now.
Renames functional extension module to _functools and adds a Python
functools module so that utility functions like update_wrapper can be
added easily.
invalid file paths for the built-in import machinery which leads to
fewer open calls on startup.
Also fix issue with PEP 302 style import hooks which lead to more open()
calls than necessary.
QueryPerformanceCounter(), but we believe Win64 does
support it now. So use in time.clock().
It would be peachy if someone with a Win64 box tried
this ;-)
In rare cases of strings specifying true values near sys.maxint,
and oddball bases (not decimal or a power of 2), int(string, base)
could deliver insane answers. This repairs all such problems, and
also speeds string->int significantly. On my box, here are %
speedups for decimal strings of various lengths:
length speedup
------ -------
1 12.4%
2 15.7%
3 20.6%
4 28.1%
5 33.2%
6 37.5%
7 41.9%
8 46.3%
9 51.2%
10 19.5%
11 19.9%
12 23.9%
13 23.7%
14 23.3%
15 24.9%
16 25.3%
17 28.3%
18 27.9%
19 35.7%
Note that the difference between 9 and 10 is the difference between
short and long Python ints on a 32-bit box. The patch doesn't
actually do anything to speed conversion to long: the speedup is
due to detecting "unsigned long" overflow more quickly.
This is a bugfix candidate, but it's a non-trivial patch and it
would be painful to separate the "bug fix" from the "speed up" parts.
Applied patch zombie-frames-2.diff from sf patch 876206 with updates for
Python 2.5 and also modified to retain the free_list to avoid the 67%
slow-down in pybench recursion test. 5% speed up in function call pybench.
