Barry Warsaw 2a38a86c1c Expose Subversion revision number (calculated via "svnversion .") to Python. 
Add C API function Py_GetBuildNumber(), add it to the interactive prompt
banner (i.e. Py_GetBuildInfo()), and add it as the sys.build_number
attribute.  The build number is a string instead of an int because it may
contain a trailing 'M' if there are local modifications.

Tim Peters 7f468f29f4 SF patch 1044089: New C API function PyEval_ThreadsInitialized(), by Nick

Nicholas Bastin 975e725fc7 Fix typo in PyDict_Items doc 2004-09-29 21:39:26 +00:00
Walter Dörwald 69652035bc SF patch #998993: The UTF-8 and the UTF-16 stateful decoders now support 
decoding incomplete input (when the input stream is temporarily exhausted).
codecs.StreamReader now implements buffering, which enables proper
readline support for the UTF-16 decoders. codecs.StreamReader.read()
has a new argument chars which specifies the number of characters to
return. codecs.StreamReader.readline() and codecs.StreamReader.readlines()
have a new argument keepends. Trailing "\n"s will be stripped from the lines
if keepends is false. Added C APIs PyUnicode_DecodeUTF8Stateful and
PyUnicode_DecodeUTF16Stateful.

Hye-Shik Chang e9ddfbb412 SF #989185: Drop unicode.iswide() and unicode.width() and add 
unicodedata.east_asian_width().  You can still implement your own
simple width() function using it like this:
    def width(u):
        w = 0
        for c in unicodedata.normalize('NFC', u):
            cwidth = unicodedata.east_asian_width(c)
            if cwidth in ('W', 'F'): w += 2
            else: w += 1
        return w

left behind in sys.modules.

Thomas Heller fe0808382b Fix an uncorrect function prototype. 
Will backport to release23-maint.

BTW: Shouldn't it read PY_LONG_LONG instead of 'long long' ?
 2004-07-23 14:49:52 +00:00
Tim Peters 8ff9f9f4aa Supply missing word in new datetime docs, aggravated by copy-paste-edit. 2004-07-17 01:42:26 +00:00
Tim Peters eda29306b3 Formalize that the Py_VISIT macro requires that the tp_traverse 
implementation it's used in must give its arguments specific names.
 2004-07-15 04:05:59 +00:00
Jim Fulton aa6389e13b Documented the new Py_VISIT macro to simplify implementation of 
tp_traverse handlers. (Tim made me do it. ;)
 2004-07-14 19:08:17 +00:00
Jim Fulton 8c5aeaa277 Implemented a new Py_CLEAR macro. This macro should be used when 
decrementing the refcount of variables that might be accessed as a
result of calling Python
 2004-07-14 19:07:35 +00:00
Tim Peters e45d5a3b00 Claifications: visit procs are supplied by the core, users aren't 
expected to write their own.  A NULL "object" must not be passed to
the visit callback.  A non-zero return from a visit proc isn't
necessarily an error return (and it doesn't matter to the tp_traverse
code *what* it might signify, their only job is to return it).
 2004-07-13 17:18:10 +00:00
Tim Peters 183dabcd73 SF patch 986010: add missing doc for datetime C API, from 
Anthony Tuininga.

This is a derived patch, taking the opportunity to add some organization
to the now-large pile of datetime-related macros, and to factor out
tedious repeated text.

Also improved some clumsy wording in NEWS.
 2004-07-11 19:26:19 +00:00
Brett Cannon 711e7d97e4 Add PyArg_VaParseTupleAndKeywords(). Document this function and

Andrew M. Kuchling ee5e4cd899 [Bug #984017] Incorrect prototype, fixed by Timothy Stranex 2004-07-07 13:07:47 +00:00
Brett Cannon d88471f432 Change signatures for arguments to "s" and friends to be the proper ``const 
char *`` instead of just ``char *``.  Also added the mentioning of "const" in
some places where it was left out even when the signature already stated the
fact.

Closes bug #980925.
 2004-07-01 20:55:42 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling 6d3a0d2dff [Bug #948970] Add PyExc_* symbols to index. 
(I ran this through texcheck, but don't have LaTeX installed on this machine and therefore haven't
verified that the changes are accepted by LaTeX.)

Tim Peters 9ddf40b4e1 SF patch 876130: add C API to datetime module, from Anthony Tuininga. 
The LaTeX is untested (well, so is the new API, for that matter).
Note that I also changed NULL to get spelled consistently in concrete.tex.
If that was a wrong thing to do, Fred should yell at me.
 2004-06-20 22:41:32 +00:00
Neil Schemenauer d68d3ee3dd Note that memory returned by PyBuffer_New is not specifically aligned.

Nicholas Bastin e9c2ecfb96 Removed 'U' from the documentation for Py_BuildValue to bring it in line 
with the elimination of 'U' in modsupport.c on 2000/04/28 (replaced
with 'u' and 'u#' per fdrake's comments).
 2004-05-04 19:25:56 +00:00

 2004-01-01 05:43:53 +00:00
Andrew MacIntyre f72af655c5 At 2.2, the Py<type>_Check() family of API functions (macros) changed 
semantics to include subtypes.  Most concrete object APIs then had
a Py<type>_CheckExact() macro added to test for an object's type
not including subtypes.

The PyDict_CheckExact() macro wasn't created at that time, so I've added
it for API completeness/symmetry - even though nobody has complained
about its absence in the time since 2.2 was released.

Not a backport candidate.
 2003-12-26 00:07:51 +00:00
Andrew MacIntyre 13cd8898d2 The semantics of PyList_Check() and PyDict_Check() changed at 2.2, along 
with most other concrete object checks, but the docs weren't brought into
line.

PyList_CheckExact() was added at 2.2 but never documented.

backport candidate.
