For short ints, Python defers to the platform C library to figure out what
%#x should do. The code asserted that the platform C returned a string
beginning with "0x". However, that's not true when-- and only when --the
*value* being formatted is 0. Changed the code to live with C's inconsistency
here. In the meantime, the problem does not arise if you format a long 0 (0L)
instead. However, that's because the code *we* wrote to do %#x conversions on
longs produces a leading "0x" regardless of value. That's probably wrong too:
we should drop leading "0x", for consistency with C, when (& only when) formatting
0L. So I changed the long formatting code to do that too.
catch IOError as well as OverflowError. I found that on Tru64 Unix
this was raised; probably because the OS (or libc) doesn't support
large files but the architecture is 64 bits!
Avoid ever using popen on Windows, since it's broken there.
Factor out the business of getting the summary line into splitdoc().
Use the modulename() routine in inspect.
Show all members of modules and classes rather than filtering on leading '_'.
Small typo and formtating fixes.
Don't show warnings when running "pydoc -k".
pickle.py
The code implicitly assumed that all ints fit in 4 bytes, causing all
sorts of mischief (from nonsense results to corrupted pickles).
Repaired that.
marshal.c
The int marshaling code assumed that right shifts of signed longs
sign-extend. Repaired that.
bugs on sizeof(long)==8 machines. pickle.py has no idea what it's
doing with very large ints, and variously gets things right by accident,
computes nonsense, or generates corrupt pickles. cPickle fails on
cases 2**31 <= i < 2**32: since it *thinks* those are 4-byte ints
(the "high 4 bytes" are all zeroes), it stores them in the (signed!) BININT
format, so they get unpickled as negative values.
integers, but the std tests don't exercise most of them. Repair that.
CAUTION: I expect this to fail on boxes with sizeof(long)==8, in the
part of test_cpickle (but not test_pickle) trying to do a binary mode
(not text mode) load of the embedded BINDATA pickle string. Once that
hypothesized failure is confirmed, I'll fix cPickle.c.
Even though relative redirects are illegal, they are common
urllib treated every relative redirect as though it was to http,
even if the original was https://
As long as we're compensating for server bugs, might as well do
it properly.
Add mangling support
Add get_children() and add_child() methods to Scope
Skip nodes when If test is a false constant
Add test code that checks results against symtable module
Fix com_NEWLINE() so that is accepts arguments, which occurs for lines like:
stmt; # note trailing semicolon
Add XXX about checking for assignment to list comps
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/medusa/message/333
It's clear that Medusa should not be checking for an empty buffer
via "buf is ''". The patch merely changes "is" to "==". However,
there's a mystery here all the same: Python attempts to store null
strings uniquely, so it's unclear why "buf is ''" ever returned
false when buf actually was empty. *Some* string operations produce
non-unique null strings, e.g.
>>> "abc"*0 is "abc"*0
0
>>>
but they're rare, and I don't see any such operations in asynchat.
add a self-test using doctest. Results:
- The docstring needs to be a raw string because it uses \"...\".
- The oreo example was broken: the Set-Cookie output doesn't add
quotes around "doublestuff".
- I had to change the example that prints the class of a Cookie.Cookie
instance to avoid incorporating an arbitrary object address in the
test output.
Pretty good score for both doctest and the doc string, I'd say!
define COLORS or COLOR_PAIRS until after start_color() is called,
but they were never added to the curses module. Fixed by adding
a wrapper around start_color(), similar to the wrapper around initscr().
This applies the patch Fred Drake created to fix it.
I'm checking it in since I had to apply the patch anyway in order
to test its behavior on Windows.
used by Jython. The tests in this module expect C locale, so be
explicit about setting that (for CPython). However, in Jython, there
is no C locale, so instead be explicit about setting the US locale.
Closes the patch.
Change 1: Not all 'modules' in sys.modules have a
sensible __file__ attribute. Some of our java package
can have the __file__ attribute set to None.
Change 2: In jython we have the jython license file in
<root> and the CPython license file in <root>/Lib. By
reversing the search sequence jython will find and
show the jython license file before the CPython file.
Closes SF patch #405853.
#403666. Specifically,
In codestr, force `c' to be global. It's unclear what the semantics
should be for a code object compiled at module scope, but bound and
run in a function. In CPython, `c' is global (by accident?) while in
Jython, `c' is local. The intent of the test clearly is to make `c'
global, so let's be explicit about it.
Jython also does not have a __builtins__ name in the module's
namespace, so we use a more portable alternative (though I'm not sure
why the test requires "__builtins__" in the g namespace).
Finally, skip the new.code() test if the new module doesn't have a
`code' attribute. Jython will never have this.
Font adjustment to improve viewing in Windows (the default monospaced font,
Courier New, seems to have no reasonable size in IE!)
Improve error handling. Try very hard to distinguish between failure to
find a module and failure during the module importing process.
Improve reloading behaviour. (Still needs some work.)
Add '.' to sys.path when running as a script at the command-line.
Don't automatically assume '-g' based on the platform. We'll just have
the batch file supply -g.
createAttributeNS(), use the parallel setAttributeNode() or
setAttributeNodeNS() to add the node to the document -- do not assume
that setAttributeNode() will operate properly for both.
Factor description of import errors into DocImportError.__str__.
Add "docother" and "fail" methods to Doc class.
Factor formatting of constants into "docother".
Increase max string repr limit to 100 characters.
Factor page generation into HTMLDoc.page.
Handle aliasing of names (objects appearing under an attribute
name different from their intrinsic __name__) by passing the
attribute name into each doc* method.
Handle methods at top level of modules (e.g. in random).
Try to do reloading efficiently.
Important fixes still to do:
Module reloading is broken by the unfortunate property that
failed imports leave an incomplete module in sys. Still
need to think of a good solution.
Can't document modules in the current directory, due to the
other unfortunate property that sys.path gets '.' when
you run 'python' but it gets the script directory when
you run a script. Need to ponder to find a solution.
The synopsis() routine does not work on .so modules.
Aliases cause duplicate copies of documentation to appear.
This is easy to fix, just more work.
Classes appear as their intrinsic name, not their attribute name,
in the class hierarchy. This should be fixed.
Inherited methods should be listed in class descriptions.
# 409287, ssl fix when using _socketobject, by Robin Dunn.
I took the opportunity to improve the way it deals with reload(socket)
for the socket function as well.
cmd.py uses raw_input(); eats SIGCLD:
I discovered a rather nasty side effect of the standard cmd.py
library today. If it's sitting inside raw_input(), any SIGCLDs that
get sent to your application get silently eaten and ignored. I'm
assuming that this is something that readline is thoughtfully doing
for me.
This patch adds an instance attr that allows the user to select to
not use raw_input(), but instead use sys.stdin.readline()
[Changed slightly to catch EOFError only for raw_input().]
along with options to print them.
Add a finalize_options() method to Distribution to do final processing
on the platform and keyword attributes
Add DistributionMetadata.write_pkg_info() method to write a PKG-INFO file
into the release tree.
This makes verbose-mode output easier to dig thru, and removes an accidental
dependence on the order of dict.items() (made visible by recent changes to
dictobject.c).
of another list comp. This caused crashes reported as SF bugs 409230
and 407800.
Note that the new tests are in a function so that the name lookup code
isn't affected by how many *other* list comprehensions are in the same
scope.

Does someone still release distutils separate from python?
has been changed to include an uninstaller.
I forgot to mention in the uninstaller checkin that the logfile
name (used for uninstalling) has been changed from
<module>.log to <module>-wininst.log. This should prevent
conflicts with a distutils logfile serving the same purpose.
The short form of the --bdist-dir (-d) option has been removed
because it caused conflicts with the short form of the --dist-dir
option.
for backward compatibility.
Add support for SGML declaration syntax (<!....>) to some reasonable
degree. This does not support everything allowed in SGML, but should
work with "real" HTML (internal subset in a DOCTYPE is not handled).
The content of the declaration is passed to the .handle_decl() method,
which can be overridden by subclasses.

Fix silly argument handling; was using *args but really wanted 1
optional arg.
XXX Should profile.doc be merged into the documentation and removed

can be called from a start tag handler. When the corresponding end
tag is read the flag is cleared. However, it didn't get cleared when
the start tag was for an empty element of the type <tag .../>. This
modification fixes the problem.
- addition of a DocumentFragment implementation and createDocumentFragment method
- proper setting of ownerDocument for all nodes
- setting of namespaceURI to None in Element as a class attribute
- addition of setAttributeNodeNS and removeAttributeNodeNS as aliases
for setAttributeNode and removeAttributeNode
- support for inheriting from DOMImplementation to extend it with
additional features (to override the Document class)
in pulldom:
- support for nodes (comment and PI) that occur before he document element;
that became necessary as pulldom now delays creation of the document
until it has the document element.
UNIX style fork/execve/wait are not fully compatible with thread
support on BeOS. For Python, that means neither fork() from import
nor import from a fork work reliably. os._execvpe() does the latter,
importing tempfile to set up a tantalizing target for hackers. This
patch replaces both the tempfile name generation and the exec that
uses it, in case we're on BeOS. Need this for
setup:distutils:execvp(); symptoms are random crashes and internal
BeOS error messages about th name, in case we're on BeOS. It's an
issue because setup.py + distutils calls os.execvp(); symptoms are
random crashes during setup.py, and internal BeOS error messages
about thread IDs.
as long as the filename also doesn't end in a suffix that indicates
a binary file (according to the flags in imp.get_suffixes()).
Shrink try...except clauses and replace some of them with explicit checks.
Add checks for .pyo and .pyd.
Collapse docfunction, docmethod, docbuiltin into the one method docroutine.
Small formatting fixes.
Link the segments of a package path in the title.
Link to the source file only if it exists.
Allow modules (e.g. repr.py) to take precedence over built-ins (e.g. repr()).
Add interruptible synopsis scanner (so we can do searches in the background).
Make HTTP server quit.
Add small GUI for controlling the server and launching searches (like -k).
(Tested on Win2k, Win98, and Linux.)
Handle <... at 001B6378> like <... at 0x120f80> (%p is platform-dependent).
Fix RCS version tag handling.
Move __main__ behaviour into a function, pydoc.cli().

Allow FTP.close() to be called more than once without tossing cookies.
(This seems to be a fairly common idiom for .close() methods, so let's
try to be consistent.)
warn_explicit(message, category, filename, lineno, module, registry)
The regular warn() call calculates a bunch of values and calls
warn_explicit() with these.
This will be used to issue better syntax warnings.

The point being to make it easier to tell what is getting pulled out
where; magic numbers are evil!
Change the computation of the ZipInfo.file_offset field to use the
length of the relevant "extra" field -- there are two different ones,
and the wrong one had been used. ;-(
This closes SF tracker patch #403276, but more verbosely than the
proposed patch.
ZipFile.__del__() when there was an IOError opening the underlying
file in ZipFile.__init__().
This is an odd test: since the exception is in the __del__() method,
it is not propogated. This test will trigger it but regrtest.py
does not detect the failure (not sure why); we are dependent on it
actually being noticed by a user to get a new bug report if it ever
fails. ;-(
On the other hand, this makes sure that code gets exercised, so
a failure could be noticed!
the Cygwin-specific compiler class.
(According to Jason Tishler, cygwinccompiler needs some work to
handle the differences in Cygwin- and MSVC-Python. Makefile and
config files are currently ignored by cygwinccompiler, as it was
written to support cygwin for extensions which are intended to be
used with the standard MSVC built Python.)
compile.h: #define NESTED_SCOPES_DEFAULT 0 for Python 2.1
__future__ feature name: "nested_scopes"
symtable.h: Add st_nested_scopes slot. Define flags to track exec and
import star.
Lib/test/test_scope.py: requires nested scopes
compile.c: Fiddle with error messages.
Reverse the sense of ste_optimized flag on
PySymtableEntryObjects. If it is true, there is an optimization
conflict.
Modify get_ref_type to respect st_nested_scopes flags.
Refactor symtable_load_symbols() into several smaller functions,
which use struct symbol_info to share variables. In new function
symtable_update_flags(), raise an error or warning for import * or
bare exec that conflicts with nested scopes. Also, modify handle
for free variables to respect st_nested_scopes flag.
In symtable_init() assign st_nested_scopes flag to
NESTED_SCOPES_DEFAULT (defined in compile.h).
Add preliminary and often incorrect implementation of
symtable_check_future().
Add symtable_lookup() helper for future use.
- func.__dict__ is None until the first attribute is assigned
- del func.__dict__ is equivalent to func.__dict__ = None
- disallowing assignment to function attribute through unbound method

via meth.im_func is okay.

This closes SF bug #133717.
NamedNodeMap.setNamedItem(). Martin, should I sync the PyXML tree, too,
or do you want to do it? (I don't know if you're wrapping the 0.6.4
release right now.)
cookies that contain '=' as part of the value. This patch modifies
Cookie.py to allow '=' as a legal character, and to make the key

sgmllib does not recognize HTML attributes containing the semicolon
';' character. This may be in accordance with the HTML spec, but there
