Jesse Noller 5053fbbb38 Issue 3551: Raise ValueError if the size causes ERROR_NO_SYSTEM_RESOURCES 2009-04-02 04:22:09 +00:00
Michael Foord 345b2fe21e Better exception messages for unittest assert methods.
- unittest.assertNotEqual() now uses the inequality operator (!=) instead
  of the equality operator.

- Default assertTrue and assertFalse messages are now useful.

- TestCase has a longMessage attribute. This defaults to False, but if set to True
  useful error messages are shown in addition to explicit messages passed to assert methods.

Issue #5663

Brett Cannon c4f90ebea7 PyImport_AppendInittab() took a char * as a first argument even though that
string was stored beyond the life of the call. Changed the signature to be
const char * to help make this point.

Closes issue #1419652.

Gregory P. Smith 2839985c7e The unittest.TestCase.assertEqual() now displays the differences in lists,
tuples, dicts and sets on failure.

Many new handy type and comparison specific assert* methods have been added
that fail with error messages actually useful for debugging.  Contributed in
by Google and completed with help from mfoord and GvR at PyCon 2009 sprints.

Discussion lives in http://bugs.python.org/issue2578.

Barry Warsaw dbf95a3643 A fix for issue 1974, inspired by the patch from Andi Albrecht (aalbrecht),
though with some changes by me.  This patch should not be back ported or
forward ported.  It's a bit too risky for 2.6 and 3.x does things fairly
differently.

Jeffrey Yasskin 68d6852006 Backport r69961 to trunk, replacing JUMP_IF_{TRUE,FALSE} with
POP_JUMP_IF_{TRUE,FALSE} and JUMP_IF_{TRUE,FALSE}_OR_POP. This avoids executing
a POP_TOP on each conditional and sometimes allows the peephole optimizer to
skip a JUMP_ABSOLUTE entirely. It speeds up list comprehensions significantly.

* Replace dramatic footnote with in-line comment about possible round-off errors in logarithms of large numbers.
* Add comments to the pure python code equivalent.
* replace floor() with int() in the mathematical equivalent so the type is correct (should be an int, not a float).
* add abs() to the mathematical equivalent so that it matches the previous line that it is supposed to be equivalent to.
* make one combined example with a negative input.

Changed semantic of _fileio.FileIO's close()  method on file objects with closefd=False.

The FileIO  object also got a new readonly attribute closefd.
