12x faster than *sort. The experimental mergesort runs it about 8x
faster than *sort without special-casing, but should really do better
than that (when merging runs of different lengths, right now it only
does something clever about finding where the second run begins in
the first and where the first run ends in the second, and that's more
of a temp-memory optimization).

I suppose this will make it harder to run this test outside of

make it skip cleanly for everyone else.

Fixed what was quite a arguably a bug, explaining an old mystery: the
"!sort" case here contructs what *was* a quadratic-time disaster for
the old quicksort implementation. But under the current samplesort, it
always ran much faster than *sort (the random case). This never made
sense. Turns out it was because !sort was sorting an integer array,
while all the other cases sort floats; and comparing ints goes much
quicker than comparing floats in Python. After changing !sort to chew
on floats instead, it's now slower than the random sort case, which
makes more sense (but is just a few percent slower; samplesort is
massively less sensitive to "bad patterns" than quicksort).
The implementation now stores all the lines of the request in a buffer
and makes a single send() call when the request is finished,
specifically when endheaders() is called.
This appears to improve performance. The old code called send() for
each line. The sends are all short, so they caused bad interactions
with the Nagle algorithm and delayed acknowledgements. In simple
tests, the second packet was delayed by 100s of ms. The second send was
delayed by the Nagle algorithm, waiting for the ack. The delayed ack
strategy delays the ack in hopes of piggybacking it on a data packet,
but the server won't send any data until it receives the complete
request.
This change minimizes the problem that Nagle + delayed ack will cause
a problem, although a request large enough to be broken into two
packets will still suffer some delay. Luckily the MSS is large enough
to accomodate most single packets.

takes much longer to run in the context of the test suite than when run in
isolation. That's because it forces a large number of full collections,
which take time proportional to the total number of gc'ed objects in the
whole system.
But since the dangerous implementation trickery that caused this test to
fail in 2.0, 2.1 and 2.2 doesn't exist in 2.3 anymore (the trashcan
mechanism stopped doing evil things when the possibility for compiling
without cyclic gc was taken away), such an expensive test is no longer
justified. This checkin leaves the test intact, but fiddles the

If multiple header fields with the same name occur, they are combined
according to the rules in RFC 2616 sec 4.2:
Appending each subsequent field-value to the first, each separated by

received is significant to the interpretation of the combined field
value.
Section 19.6 of RFC 2616 (HTTP/1.1):
It is beyond the scope of a protocol specification to mandate
compliance with previous versions. HTTP/1.1 was deliberately
designed, however, to make supporting previous versions easy....
And we would expect HTTP/1.1 clients to:
- recognize the format of the Status-Line for HTTP/1.0 and 1.1
responses;
- understand any valid response in the format of HTTP/0.9, 1.0, or
1.1.
The changes to the code do handle response in the format of HTTP/0.9.
Some users may consider this a bug because all responses with a
sufficiently corrupted status line will look like an HTTP/0.9
response. These users can pass strict=1 to the HTTP constructors to
get a BadStatusLine exception instead.
While this is a new feature of sorts, it enhances the robustness of
the code (be tolerant in what you accept). Thus, I consider it a bug
fix candidate.

headers with no charset or 'us-ascii' charsets. Actually this is only
partially true: we know about semicolons (but not true parameters) and
we know about whitespace (but not technically folding whitespace).
Still it should be good enough for all practical purposes.
Other changes include:
__init__(): Add a continuation_ws argument, which defaults to a single
space. Set this to change the whitespace used for continuation lines
when a header must be split. Also, changed the way header line
lengths are calculated, so that they take into account continuation_ws
(when tabs-expanded) and any provided header_name parameter. This
should do much better on returning split headers for which the first
and subsequent lines must fit into a specified width.

know anything about RFC 2047 encoded headers. Fortunately we have a

that's been fixed now too.
Didn't use the patch, because universal newlines support made it easy.
It might be worth fixing the actual problem in the 2.2 maintenance
branch, in which case the patch is still needed.
Setting the buffer_text attribute to true causes the parser to collect
character data, waiting as long as possible to report it to the Python
callback. This can save an enormous number of callbacks from C to
Python, which can be a substantial performance improvement.
buffer_text defaults to false.
The HTTPResponse class now handles 100 continue responses, instead of
choking on them. It detects them internally in the _begin() method
and ignores them. Based on a patch by Bob Kline.
This closes SF bugs 498149 and 551273.
The FakeSocket class (for SSL) is now usable with HTTP/1.1
connections. The old version of the code could not work with
persistent connections, because the makefile() implementation read
until EOF before returning. If the connection is persistent, the
server sends a response and leaves the connection open. A client that
reads until EOF will block until the server gives up on the connection
-- more than a minute in my test case.
The problem was fixed by implementing a reasonable makefile(). It
reads data only when it is needed by the layers above it. It's
implementation uses an internal buffer with a default size of 8192.
Also, rename begin() method of HTTPResponse to _begin() because it

The default implementation calls _compile() to compile individual
files. This method must be implemented by the subclass. This change
factors out most of the remaining common code in all the compilers
except mwerks.
In a fresh interpreter, type.mro(tuple) would segfault, because

The module "new" has been replaced with a small backward compatibility
placeholder in Python.
A large portion of the patch simply removes the new module from
various platform-specific build recipes. The following binary Mac
project files still have references to it:
Mac/Build/PythonCore.mcp
Mac/Build/PythonStandSmall.mcp
Mac/Build/PythonStandalone.mcp
[I've tweaked the code layout and the doc strings here and there, and
added a comment to types.py about StringTypes vs. basestring. --Guido]
They still run as standalone scripts, but when used as part of the
regression test suite, they are effectively no-ops.
(This is done by renaming test_main to main.)
473985. Through a subtle rearrangement of some members in the etype

which is necessary to support str.__getitem__("hello", slice(4)) etc.
Two new tests are needed:
Don't skip building an extension if any of the depends files are newer
than the target.
Pass ext.depends to compiler.compile() so that it can track individual
files.
Always use _setup_compile() to do the grunt work of processing
arguments, figuring out which files to compile, and emitting debug
messages for files that are up-to-date.
Use _get_cc_args() when possible.
This change is not backwards compatible. If a compiler subclass
exists outside the distutils package, it may get called with the
unexpected keyword arg. It's easy to extend that compiler by having
it ignore the argument, and not much harder to do the right thing. If
this ends up being burdensome, we can change it before 2.3 final to
work harder at compatibility.
Also add _setup_compile() and _get_cc_args() helper functions that
factor out much of the boilerplate for each concrete compiler class.
that retries the connect() call in timeout mode so it can be shared
between connect() and connect_ex(), and needs only a single #ifdef.
The test for this was doing funky stuff I don't approve of,
so I removed it in favor of a simpler test. This allowed me
to implement a simpler, "purer" form of the timeout retry code.
Hopefully that's enough (if you want to be fancy, use non-blocking
mode and decode the errors yourself, like before).
Remove __init__ that just called base class __init__ with same args.
Fold long argument lists into fewer, shorter lines.
Remove parens in tuple unpacks.
Don't put multiple statements on one line with a semicolon.
In find_library_file() compute the library_filename() upfront.
- setblocking(0) and settimeout(0) are now equivalent, and ditto for
setblocking(1) and settimeout(None).
- Don't raise an exception from internal_select(); let the final call
report the error (this means you will get an EAGAIN error instead of
an ETIMEDOUT error -- I don't care).
- Move the select to inside the Py_{BEGIN,END}_ALLOW_THREADS brackets,
so other theads can run (this was a bug in the original code).
- Redid the retry logic in connect() and connect_ex() to avoid masking
errors. This probably doesn't work for Windows yet; I'll fix that
next. It may also fail on other platforms, depending on what
retrying a connect does; I need help with this.
- Get rid of the retry logic in accept(). I don't think it was needed
at all. But I may be wrong.
This was a simple typo. Strange that the compiler didn't catch it!
Instead of WHY_CONTINUE, two tests used CONTINUE_LOOP, which isn't a
why_code at all, but an opcode; but even though 'why' is declared as
an enum, comparing it to an int is apparently not even worth a

I've made considerable changes to Michael's code, specifically to use

This is a conservative version of SF patch 504889. It uses the log
module instead of calling print in various places, and it ignores the
verbose argument passed to many functions and set as an attribute on
some objects. Instead, it uses the verbosity set on the logger via
the command line.
The log module is now preferred over announce() and warn() methods
that exist only for backwards compatibility.

sensitive).
Also set mp->flags = READONLY for the __weakref__ pseudo-slot.

modules, distutils does not understand that the build version of the
source tree is needed.
This patch fixes distutils.sysconfig to understand that the running
Python is part of the build tree and needs to use the appropriate
"shape" of the tree. This does not assume anything about the current
directory, so can be used to build 3rd-party modules using Python's
build tree as well.
This is useful since it allows us to use a non-installed debug-mode
Python with 3rd-party modules for testing. It as the side-effect that
set_python_build() is no longer needed (the hack which was added to
allow distutils to be used to build the "standard" extension modules).

Change the module constructor (module_init) to have the signature
__init__(name:str, doc=None); this prevents the call from type_new()
to succeed. While we're at it, prevent repeated calling of
module_init for the same module from leaking the dict, changing the
semantics so that __dict__ is only initialized if NULL.
Also adding a unittest, test_module.py.
This is an incompatibility with 2.2, if anybody was instantiating the
module class before, their argument list was probably empty; so this
can't be backported to 2.2.x.
The HTTPError class tries to act as a regular response objects for
HTTP protocol errors that include full responses. If the failure is
more basic, like no valid response, the __init__ choked when it tried
to initialize its superclasses in addinfourl hierarchy that requires a
valid response.
The solution isn't elegant but seems to be effective. Do not
initialize the base classes if there isn't a file object containing
the response. In this case, user code expecting to use the addinfourl
methods will fail; but it was going to fail anyway.
It might be cleaner to factor out HTTPError into two classes, only one
of which inherits from addinfourl. Not sure that the extra complexity
would lead to any improved functionality, though.

Lines starting with '#' are ignored.
This goes a long way toward helping to automate the binary-search-like
procedure I keep reinventing by hand when a test fails due to interaction
among tests (no failure in isolation, and some unknown number of
predecessor tests need to run first -- now you can stick all the test
names in a file, and comment/uncomment blocks of lines until finding a
minimal set of predecessors).
__call__() can be 2-3x slower than the equivalent normal method.

me can work out what's really happening.

If a rexec instance allows writing in the current directory (a common
thing to do), there's a way to execute bogus bytecode. Fix this by
not allowing imports from .pyc files (in a way that allows a site to
configure things so that .pyc files *are* allowed, if writing is not
allowed).
I'll apply this to 2.2 and 2.1 too.

single byte character sets. Also fixed a semantic problem with the

__init__(): Change the maxlinelen argument default to None instead of
MAXLINELEN. The semantics should have been (and now are) that if
maxlinelen is given it is always honored. If it isn't given, but
header_name is given, then the maximum line length is calculated. If
neither are given then the default 76 characters is used.
_split(): If the character set is a single byte character set then we
can split the line at the maxlinelen because we know that encoding the
header won't increase its length. If the charset isn't a single byte
charset then we use the quicker divide-and-conquer line splitting
algorithm as before.

modules (_compat21.py and _compat22.py).
Also bumped the package version number to 2.0.3 for some fixes to be
checked in momentarily.
Scot Stevenson. Could be a bug fix candidate, but probably doesn't
matter much unless a certain blue-nosed cat suddenly becomes corporeal
and starts emailing some stmp.py (sic) fronted mailer.
returned a proxy for __class__ whose __bases__ was also a proxy. The
merge_class_dict() helper for dir() assumed incorrectly that __bases__
would always be a tuple and used the in-line tuple API on the proxy.
I will backport this to 2.2 as well.
test if 'callable' has not been supplied is to test for None instead of
False. The previous correction to 'if callable()' was wrong because an unusable
callback would be ignored rather than raising an exception.
and the .seed() and .whseed() methods failed to reset it. In other
words, setting the seed didn't completely determine the sequence of
results produced by random.gauss(). It does now. Programs repeatedly
mixing calls to a seed method with calls to gauss() may see different
results now.
Bugfix candidate (random.gauss() has always been broken in this way),
despite that it may change results.
This now does a dynamic analysis of which elements are so frequently
repeated as to constitute noise. The primary benefit is an enormous
speedup in find_longest_match, as the innermost loop can have factors
of 100s less potential matches to worry about, in cases where the
sequences have many duplicate elements. In effect, this zooms in on
sequences of non-ubiquitous elements now.
While I like what I've seen of the effects so far, I still consider
this experimental. Please give it a try!
On Win2K it thought 'foo' started at byte offset 0 instead of at the
pagesize, and on Win98 it thought 'foo' didn't exist at all. Somehow
or other this is related to the new "in memory file" gimmicks in
bsddb, but the old bsddb we use on Windows sucks so bad anyway I don't
want to bother digging deeper. Flushing the file in test_mmap after
writing to it makes the problem go away, so good enough.
build's "undetected error" problems were originally detected with
extension types, but we can whitebox test the same situations with
new-style classes.
Also add a test that Python doesn't die with SIGXFSZ if it exceeds the
file rlimit. (Assuming this will also test the behavior when the 2GB
limit is exceed on a platform that doesn't have large file support.)
closes SF #514433
can now pass 'None' as the filename for the bsddb.*open functions,
and you'll get an in-memory temporary store.
docs are ripped out of the bsddb dbopen man page. Fred may want to
clean them up.
Considering this for 2.2, but not 2.1.

This adds the optional argument for str.strip
to unicode.strip too and makes it possible
to call str.strip with a unicode argument
and unicode.strip with a str argument.
- islink() now returns true for alias files
- walk() no longer follows aliases while traversing
- realpath() implemented, returning an alias-free pathname.
As this could conceivably break existing code I think it isn't a bugfix candidate.
test data: this test fails on WIndows now if universal newlines are
enabled (which they aren't yet, by default). I don't know whether the
test will also fail on Linux now.
SF bug #522264 reported by Evelyn Mitchell.
The code included a comment about "STAR STAR" which was translated
into the code as the bogus attribute token.STARSTAR. This name never
caused an attribute error because it was never retrieved. The code
was based on an old version of the grammar that specified kwargs as
two tokens ('*' '*'). I checked as far back as 2.1 and didn't find
this production.
The fix is simple, because token.DOUBLESTAR is the only token
allowed. Also update the grammar fragment in com_arglist().
XXX I'll bet lots of other grammar fragments in comments are out of
date, probably in this module and in compile.c.
Close a file before trying to unlink it, and apparently Cygwin needs
writes to an mmap'ed file to get flushed before they're visible.
Bugfix candidate, but I think only for the 2.2 line (it's testing
features that I think were new in 2.2).
Change type_get_doc (the get function for __doc__) to look in tp_dict
more often, and if it finds a descriptor in tp_dict, to call it (with
a NULL instance). This means you can add a __doc__ descriptor to a
new-style class that returns instance docs when called on an instance,
and class docs when called on a class -- or the same docs in either
case, but lazily computed.
I'll also check this into the 2.2 maintenance branch.
If a str or unicode method returns the original object,
make sure that for str and unicode subclasses the original
will not be returned.
This should prevent SF bug http://www.python.org/sf/460020
from reappearing.
PyNumber_InPlaceMultiply insisted on calling sq_inplace_repeat if it
existed, even if nb_inplace_multiply also existed and the arguments
weren't right for sq_inplace_repeat. Change this to only use
sq_inplace_repeat if nb_inplace_multiply isn't defined.
Bugfix candidate.
double call to AddressList.getaddrlist(), and /that/ always returns an
empty list for the second and subsequent calls.
Instead, instantiate an AddressList directly, and get the parsed
addresses out of the addresslist attribute.
which requires that if there are ehlo parameters returned with an ehlo
keyword (in the response to EHLO), the keyword and parameters must be
delimited by an ASCII space. Thus responses like
250-AUTH=LOGIN
should be ignored as non-conformant to the RFC (the `=' isn't allowed
in the ehlo keyword).
This is a bug fix candidate.
Add a method zfill to str, unicode and UserString and change
Lib/string.py accordingly.
This activates the zfill version in unicodeobject.c that was
commented out and implements the same in stringobject.c. It also
adds the test for unicode support in Lib/string.py back in and
uses repr() instead() of str() (as it was before Lib/string.py 1.62)
In DatagramRequestHandler.setup(), the wfile initialization should be
StringIO.StringIO(), not StringIO.StringIO(slf.packet).
Bugfix candidate (all the way back to Python 1.5.2 :-).
Highlights: import and friends will understand any of \r, \n and \r\n
as end of line. Python file input will do the same if you use mode 'U'.
Everything can be disabled by configuring with --without-universal-newlines.
See PEP278 for details.
Add optional arg to string methods strip(), lstrip(), rstrip().
The optional arg specifies characters to delete.
Also for UserString.
Still to do:
- Misc/NEWS
- LaTeX docs (I did the docstrings though)
- Unicode methods, and Unicode support in the string methods.
The test function's signature should be
test(methodname, input, output, *args)
but the output argument was omitted. This caused all tests to fail,
because the expected output was passed as the initial argument to the
method call. But because of the way the test works (it compares the
results for a regular string to the results for a UserString instance
with the same value, and it's OK if both raise the same exception) the
test never failed!
I've fixed this, and also cleaned up a few warts in the verbose
output. Finally, I've made it possible to run the test stand-alone in
verbose mode by passing -v as a command line argument.
Now, the test will report failure related to zfill. That's not my
fault, that's a legitimate problem: the string_tests.py file contains
a test for the zfill() method (just added) but this method is not
implemented. The responsible party will surely fix this soon now.
