PyNumber_Check, rather than trying to convert to a float. Reimplemented
writer - now raises exceptions when it sees a quotechar but neither
doublequote or escapechar are set. Doublequote results are now more
consistent (eg, single quote should generate """", rather than "",
which is ambiguous).
when this limit is reached. Limit defaults to 128k, and is changed
by module set_field_limit() method. Previously, an unmatched quote
character could result in the entire file being read into the field
buffer, potentially exhausting virtual memory.
only contains instances of the dialect type, we can refer directly to the
dialect instances rather than creating new ones. In other words, if the
dialect comes from the registry, and we apply no further modifications,
the reader/writer can use the dialect object directly.
was done because we were previously performing validation of the dialect
from python, but this is now down within the C module. Also, the method
we were using to detect classes did not work with new-style classes.
a delimiter. Previously, the 'network location' (<authority> in RFC 2396) would
become 'www.example.com?query=spam', while RFC 2396 does not allow a '?' in
<authority>. See bug #548176 for further discussion.
* Document hasFeature(), createDocument(), CreateDocumentType(),
hasAttribute(), hasAttributeNS().
* In the documentation for createDocument(), it is now stated that the Python
DOM API allows implementations to forego creation of the document element
child node, if no namespace and local name arguments are given. (This
possibility is left open and unaddressed in the W3C spec).
* Addition by me: use 'name' rather than 'attname', for consistency with the
DOM specification and the Python DOM API implementation.
Python file/line when the current C execution frame is inside
PyEval_EvalFrame. These are commented out by default because GDB sometimes
crashes as a result (seems like a GDB bug).
Add a pyframe command that displays the current Python stack frame. If the
marked lines are uncommented, it will also cause Emacs/XEmacs to display the
current file/line.
properties, and custom descriptors.
* removed special handling of properties
* added special handling of data descriptors - All data descriptors are grouped
together in a section. For each item, the attribute name and doc string, if
present, is displayed.
* disabled display of __slots__ attribute - since slots are descriptors, they
are listed in the section described above
