Tim Peters a390c6e194 walk() docs: Emphasize that the recursive-delete example is dangerous. 2003-04-28 19:15:10 +00:00
Tim Peters 5501b5e3d7 SF bug 728097: tmpnam problems on windows 2.3b, breaks test.test_os. 
tmpnam() appears essentially useless on Windows, and it finally broke
the test for Irmen de Jong.  Read the long new comment in test_tmpnam()
for details.  Since the MS implementation is insane, it might be good
if we supplied a different implementation.

Bugfix candidate.
 2003-04-28 03:13:03 +00:00
Tim Peters bf89b3a1f7 walk() docs: Worked "walking" into the description and the text. Added

Tim Peters c4e0940042 New generator os.walk() does a bit more than os.path.walk() does, and 
seems much easier to use.  Code, docs, NEWS, and additions to test_os.py
(testing this sucker is a bitch!).
 2003-04-25 07:11:48 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 47dfa4a89a Patch by Jp Calderone: 
- The socket module now provides the functions inet_pton and inet_ntop
  for converting between string and packed representation of IP addresses.
  See SF patch #658327.

This still needs a bit of work in the doc area, because it is not
available on all platforms (especially not on Windows).

Tim Peters 11b2306960 Enable os.fsync() for Windows, mapping it to MS's _commit() there. The 
docs here are best-guess:  the MS docs I could find weren't clear, and
some even claimed _commit() has no effect on Win32 systems (which is
easily shown to be false just by trying it).

codepoint2name is the reverse mapping. From SF patch #722017.
 2003-04-16 09:46:13 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 0fc8f00252 - pythunrun.c, Py_Finalize(): move the call to _Py_PrintReferences() 
even farther down, to just before the call to
  _PyObject_DebugMallocStats().  This required the following changes:

- pystate.c, PyThreadState_GetDict(): changed not to raise an
  exception or issue a fatal error when no current thread state is
  available, but simply return NULL without raising an exception
  (ever).

- object.c, Py_ReprEnter(): when PyThreadState_GetDict() returns NULL,
  don't raise an exception but return 0.  This means that when
  printing a container that's recursive, printing will go on and on
  and on.  But that shouldn't happen in the case we care about (see
  first bullet).

- Updated Misc/NEWS and Doc/api/init.tex to reflect changes to
  PyThreadState_GetDict() definition.
 2003-04-15 15:12:39 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 3a3cca5b82 - list.insert(i, x) now interprets negative i as it would be 
interpreted by slicing, so negative values count from the end of the
  list.  This was the only place where such an interpretation was not
  placed on a list index.

Barry Warsaw 125b9b0736 Back out of setting the default charset to iso-8859-1. 2003-04-11 21:28:10 +00:00
Neal Norwitz 06c7b62a83 Fix markup 2003-04-11 18:48:03 +00:00
Barry Warsaw a1ce93f87c From http://mail.python.org/pipermail/i18n-sig/2003-April/001557.html 
- Expose NullTranslations and GNUTranslations to __all__

- Set the default charset to iso-8859-1.  It used to be None, which
would cause problems with .ugettext() if the file had no charset
parameter.  Arguably, the po/mo file would be broken, but I still think
iso-8859-1 is a reasonable default.

- Add a "coerce" default argument to GNUTranslations's constructor.  The
reason for this is that in Zope, we want all msgids and msgstrs to be
Unicode.  For the latter, we could use .ugettext() but there isn't
currently a mechanism for Unicode-ifying msgids.

The plan then is that the charset parameter specifies the encoding for
both the msgids and msgstrs, and both are decoded to Unicode when read.
For example, we might encode po files with utf-8. I think the GNU
gettext tools don't care.

Since this could potentially break code [*] that wants to use the
encoded interface .gettext(), the constructor flag is added, defaulting
to False.  Most code I suspect will want to set this to True and use
.ugettext().

- A few other minor changes from the Zope project, including asserting
that a zero-length msgid must have a Project-ID-Version header for it to
be counted as the metadata record.
 2003-04-11 18:36:43 +00:00
Jack Jansen bae5c965e8 Moved all the scripting stuff to a separate section, added all the 
missing bits (well, all the bits I could think of) and updated the
rest.
 2003-04-11 15:35:28 +00:00
Neal Norwitz ffe33b7f24 Attempt to make all the various string *strip methods the same. 
* Doc - add doc for when functions were added
 * UserString
 * string object methods
 * string module functions
'chars' is used for the last parameter everywhere.

These changes will be backported, since part of the changes
have already been made, but they were inconsistent.
