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

Neal Norwitz b04747fc50 Add versionadded info 2005-12-18 01:36:44 +00:00
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.

Gregory P. Smith f21a5f7739 [ sf.net patch # 1121611 ] 
A new hashlib module to replace the md5 and sha modules.  It adds
support for additional secure hashes such as SHA-256 and SHA-512.  The
hashlib module uses OpenSSL for fast platform optimized
implementations of algorithms when available.  The old md5 and sha
modules still exist as wrappers around hashlib to preserve backwards
compatibility.

Johannes Gijsbers 97613ad02d Patch #1051321 (fixes bugs 1010196, 1013525), by Mike Brown: 
* 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.
 2005-01-09 00:36:53 +00:00
Johannes Gijsbers 836f5433f7 Patch #943206: 
`glob.glob()` currently calls itself recursively to build a list of matches of
the dirname part of the pattern and then filters by the basename part. This is
effectively BFS. ``glob.glob('*/*/*/*/*/foo')`` will build a huge list of all
directories 5 levels deep even if only a handful of them contain a ``foo``
entry. A generator-based recusion would never have to store these list at once
by implementing DFS. This patch converts the `glob` function to an `iglob`
recursive generator . `glob()` now just returns ``list(iglob(pattern))``.

I also cleaned up the code a bit (reduced duplicate `has_magic()` checks and
created a second `glob0` helper func so that the main loop need not be
duplicated).

Thanks to Cherniavsky Beni for the patch!

Tim Peters 919a3b40f9 SF bug 1071087: os.walk example for deleting a full tree is sometime wrong. 
Clarify that the example assumes no links are present; the point of the

platform-dependent link convolutions.

Also spell os.path.join() out in full, instead of using a shortcut import.
The bug reporter was confused by that too, and it's clearer this way.

Bugfix candidate; but I don't intend to backport it.

Armin Rigo 80adba6873 Mistakes in the "sequence types" page: 
* explanation for example with lists of lists made confusing use of
  the word "contains" to mean "is built out of".

* wrong formula for slices with step.  Is it ok to use LaTeX formulas
  (which become images in the html document)?  This version needs one
  because it's based on a fraction.  Just writing "\code{(j-i)/k}" here would
  be ambiguous because it looks like a rounding-down-to-the-previous-integer
  division, which is not what we need here.  Of course we could write
  "\code{float(j-i)/k}" but it just looks confusing.

following:

On \UNIX, \var{cmd} may be a sequence, in which case arguments will be passed
directly to the program without shell intervention (as with
\function{os.spawnv()}). If \var{cmd} is a string it will be passed to the shell
(as with \function{os.system()}).

Briefly (from the NEWS file):

- Updates for the email package:
  + All deprecated APIs that in email 2.x issued warnings have been removed:
    _encoder argument to the MIMEText constructor, Message.add_payload(),
    Utils.dump_address_pair(), Utils.decode(), Utils.encode()
  + New deprecations: Generator.__call__(), Message.get_type(),
    Message.get_main_type(), Message.get_subtype(), the 'strict' argument to
    the Parser constructor.  These will be removed in email 3.1.
  + Support for Python earlier than 2.3 has been removed (see PEP 291).
  + All defect classes have been renamed to end in 'Defect'.
  + Some FeedParser fixes; also a MultipartInvariantViolationDefect will be
    added to messages that claim to be multipart but really aren't.
  + Updates to documentation.

Edward Loper 7d88a58e85 Reverted the addition of a NORMALIZE_NUMBERS option, per Tim Peter's 
request.  Tim says that "correct 'fuzzy' comparison of floats cannot
be automated."  (The motivation behind adding the new option
was verifying interactive examples in Python's latex documentation;
several such examples use numbers that don't print consistently on
different platforms.)
 2004-09-28 05:50:57 +00:00
Edward Loper aec3c9b54f Added a new NORMALIZE_NUMBERS option, which causes number literals in

 2004-09-25 01:51:49 +00:00
Tim Peters 2dc820599b Since the doctest warnings section was reduced to one bullet point, 
get rid of the itemize structure.
 2004-09-25 01:30:16 +00:00
Tim Peters 39c5de0376 In the "doctest warnings" section, removed obsolete info, and noted that 
ELLIPSIS can be used to deal with examples that embed object addresses.
 2004-09-25 01:22:29 +00:00
Tim Peters 06cc847cee Beef up the section on testfile(), giving a complete example in 
reStructuredText format.  Remove words describing the return value of
testmod() and testfile() in the intro sections, since it's never
useful in such simple cases.

Vinay Sajip 739d49e39b Added log() function documentation 2004-09-24 11:46:44 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 596ba4d89e Granted Noam Raphael's request for minor improvements to the re module and 
its documentation.

* Documented that the compiled re methods are supposed to be more full
  featured than their simpilified function counterparts.

* Documented the existing start and stop position arguments for the
  findall() and finditer() methods of compiled regular expression objects.

* Added an optional flags argument to the re.findall() and re.finditer()
  functions.  This aligns their API with that for re.search() and
  re.match().

Edward Loper b3666a3da2 - Updated docs to reflect changes in 2.4. 
- Reorganized the documentation
  - Shifted focus a little more towards "literate testing"
  - Documented new functions and classes:
    - testfile()
    - Example, DocTest
    - DocTestParser, DocTestFinder, DocTestRunner, OutputChecker
    - DocFileSuite
    - DebugRunner, DocTestFailure, UnexpectedException
    - register_optionflag()
 2004-09-21 03:00:51 +00:00
Edward Loper 6cc1350807 - Updated example output to match actual output 
- Minor wording changes
- Changed the docs to reflect the fact that multiple option directives
  can be specified on a single line (and updated the directive
  production list, as well).

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.

Tim Peters 1fbf9c5ec1 Added IGNORE_EXCEPTION_DETAIL comparison option. The need is explained 
in the new docs.

DocTestRunner.__run:  Separate the determination of the example outcome

Skip Montanaro 0bbf137fbd Make the api of the _dispatch() method more concrete. I have no idea if 
this is the right way to document such things (Fred, help me out here :-),
but I got misled by the existing documentation and assumed the parameter
list was a *args sort of thing.

Tim Peters 38330fe5ef The distinction between comparison flags and reporting flags isn't unique 
to unittest, so make it official:  new module constants COMPARISON_FLAGS
and REPORTING_FLAGS, which are bitmasks or'ing together the relevant
individual option flags.

set_unittest_reportflags():  Reworked to use REPORTING_FLAGS, and
simplified overly complicated flag logic.

class FakeModule:  Removed this; neither documented nor used.

Raymond Hettinger f4fd79ca49 Small wording fixups. 2004-08-26 03:11:56 +00:00
Edward Loper a89f88d53f Added REPORT_ONLY_FIRST_FAILURE flag, which supresses output after the 
first failing example in each test.
 2004-08-26 02:45:51 +00:00
Edward Loper 71f55af826 Renamed UNIFIED_DIFF->REPORT_UDIFF; CONTEXT_DIFF->REPORT_CDIFF; and 
NDIFF_DIFF->REPORT_NDIFF.  This establishes the naming convention that
all reporting options should begin with "REPORT_" (since reporting
options are a different class from output comparison options; but they
are both set in optionflags).

Edward Loper 19b1958730 Only recognize the expected output as an exception if it *starts* with 
a traceback message.  I.e., examples that raise exceptions may no
longer generate pre-exception output.  This restores the behavior of
doctest in python 2.3.  The ability to check pre-exception output is
being removed because it makes the documentation simpler; and because
there are very few use cases for it.

Barry Warsaw 8bee76106e PEP 292 classes Template and SafeTemplate are added to the string module. 
This patch includes test cases and documentation updates, as well as NEWS file
updates.

This patch also updates the sre modules so that they don't import the string
module, breaking direct circular imports.

Tim Peters c885443479 Stop producing or using OverflowWarning. PEP 237 thought this would 
happen in 2.3, but nobody noticed it still was getting generated (the
warning was disabled by default).  OverflowWarning and
PyExc_OverflowWarning should be removed for 2.5, and left notes all over
saying so.
