George Yoshida 0c8d7b0f3f Document ImportWarning 2006-05-16 18:26:10 +00:00
George Yoshida 2f6ce536ab Mention that Exception is now a subclass of BaseException. 
Remove a sentence that says that BaseException inherits from BaseException.
(I guess this is just a copy & paste mistake.)

Guido van Rossum da5b701aee Get rid of __context__, per the latest changes to PEP 343 and python-dev 
discussion.
There are two places of documentation that still mention __context__:
Doc/lib/libstdtypes.tex -- I wasn't quite sure how to rewrite that without
spending a whole lot of time thinking about it; and whatsnew, which Andrew
usually likes to change himself.

Andrew M. Kuchling 7acb7b40ba [Bug #1477102] Add necessary import to example 
This may be a useful style question for the docs -- should examples show
the necessary imports, or should it be assumed that the reader will
figure it out?  In the What's New, I'm not consistent but usually opt
for omitting the imports.

Nick Coghlan e708cf5d0f Fix latex typo 2006-04-25 11:05:56 +00:00
Nick Coghlan a7e820a408 Move the PEP 343 documentation and implementation closer to the 
terminology in the alpha 1 documentation.

 - "context manager" reverts to its alpha 1 definition
 - the term "context specifier" goes away entirely
 - contextlib.GeneratorContextManager is renamed GeneratorContext

There are still a number of changes relative to alpha 1:

  - the expression in the with statement is explicitly called the
    "context expression" in the language reference
  - the terms 'with statement context', 'context object' or 'with
    statement context' are used in several places instead of a bare
    'context'. The aim of this is to avoid ambiguity in relation to the
    runtime context set up when the block is executed, and the context
    objects that already exist in various application domains (such as
    decimal.Context)
  - contextlib.contextmanager is renamed to contextfactory
    This best reflects the nature of the function resulting from the
    use of that decorator
  - decimal.ContextManager is renamed to WithStatementContext
    Simple dropping the 'Manager' part wasn't possible due to the
    fact that decimal.Context already exists and means something
    different. WithStatementContext is ugly but workable.

A technically unrelated change snuck into this commit:
contextlib.closing now avoids the overhead of creating a
generator, since it's trivial to implement that particular
context manager directly.

Andrew M. Kuchling 1da4a94719 Add Gregory K. Johnson's revised version of mailbox.py (funded by 
the 2005 Summer of Code).

The revision adds a number of new mailbox classes that support adding
and removing messages; these classes also support mailbox locking and
default to using email.Message instead of rfc822.Message.

The old mailbox classes are largely left alone for backward compatibility.
The exception is the Maildir class, which was present in the old module
and now inherits from the new classes.  The Maildir class's interface
is pretty simple, though, so I think it'll be compatible with existing
code.

(The change to the NEWS file also adds a missing word to a different
news item, which unfortunately required rewrapping the line.)

Thomas Heller 9f7e58afa7 Documentation for ctypes. 
I think that 'generic operating system services' is the best category.
Note that the Doc/lib/libctypes.latex file is generated from reST sources.
You are welcome to make typo fixes, and I'll try to keep the reST sources
in sync, but markup changes would be lost - they should be fixed in the tool
that creates the latex file.
The conversion script is external/ctypes/docs/manual/mkpydoc.py.

Walter Dörwald f7bc5f9455 Change the example classes UnicodeReader and UnicodeWriter so 
that they work with all encodings. For UnicodeReader the real
input stream is wrapped in a line iterator that reencodes the
input to UTF-8. For UnicodeWriter the UTF-8 encoded output is
written to a queue for where it is reencoded to the target
encoding and written to the real output stream.

Walter Dörwald abb02e5994 Patch #1436130: codecs.lookup() now returns a CodecInfo object (a subclass 
of tuple) that provides incremental decoders and encoders (a way to use
stateful codecs without the stream API). Functions
codecs.getincrementaldecoder() and codecs.getincrementalencoder() have
been added.

Guido van Rossum c2e20744b2 PEP 343 -- the with-statement. 
This was started by Mike Bland and completed by Guido
(with help from Neal).

This still needs a __future__ statement added;
Thomas is working on Michael's patch for that aspect.

There's a small amount of code cleanup and refactoring
in ast.c, compile.c and ceval.c (I fixed the lltrace
behavior when EXT_POP is used -- however I had to make
lltrace a static global).

Guido van Rossum 1968ad32cd - Patch 1433928: 
- The copy module now "copies" function objects (as atomic objects).
  - dict.__getitem__ now looks for a __missing__ hook before raising
    KeyError.
  - Added a new type, defaultdict, to the collections module.
    This uses the new __missing__ hook behavior added to dict (see above).

Note sure I got the LaTeX entirely correct for \seeurl.
If it's broken, please fix it ;-)

sense for 2.4.)

Armin Rigo a871ef2b3e Added the cProfile module. 
Based on lsprof (patch #1212837) by Brett Rosen and Ted Czotter.
With further editing by Michael Hudson and myself.
History in svn repo: http://codespeak.net/svn/user/arigo/hack/misc/lsprof

* Module/_lsprof.c is the internal C module, Lib/cProfile.py a wrapper.
* pstats.py updated to display cProfile's caller/callee timings if available.
* setup.py and NEWS updated.
* documentation updates in the profiler section:
   - explain the differences between the three profilers that we have now
   - profile and cProfile can use a unified documentation, like (c)Pickle
   - mention that hotshot is "for specialized usage" now
   - removed references to the "old profiler" that no longer exists
* test updates:
   - extended test_profile to cover delicate cases like recursion
   - added tests for the caller/callee displays
   - added test_cProfile, performing the same tests for cProfile
* TO-DO:
   - cProfile gives a nicer name to built-in, particularly built-in methods,
     which could be backported to profile.
   - not tested on Windows recently!

Neal Norwitz 0e6bc8c260 Patch #1407135, bug #1424041, make mmap.mmap(-1, length) work the same 
on both Unix (SVR4 and BSD) and Windows.  Restores behaviour of passing -1
for anonymous memory on Unix.  Use MAP_ANONYMOUS instead of _ANON since
the latter is deprecated according to Linux (gentoo) man pages.

Should we continue to allow mmap.mmap(0, length) to work on Windows?
0 is a valid fd.

Will backport bugfix portions.

Andrew M. Kuchling b164dafebb [Patch #1375417] Massive rearrangement of the Library Reference. 
Fred approved just checking it in; he may make further fixes.

The change shrinks the 'Generic OS' and other OS chapters, which had become
something of a dumping ground for random modules.  It differs from the
last version of the patch: 1) I've added introductions for the new chapters (still missing a few -- search for 'intro')
2) a few modules have been rearranged slightly from the version in the patch
