Raymond Hettinger 9c051d7e01 SF 570727 indexer() class no longer needed since lists now support slicing 2002-06-20 03:38:12 +00:00
Michael W. Hudson 9c14badc5f Fix the bug described in
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2002-June/025461.html

with test cases.

Also includes extended slice support for arrays, which I thought I'd
already checked in but obviously not.

Fred Drake a23b5739bb Add a note about "as" not being a keyword, though it has special meaning
when used as part of the import statement.

Note that both "as" and "None" becoming keywords in the future.

Jeremy Hylton 1b046e4314 Add implementation of _compile() and use default compile() method. 2002-06-18 18:48:55 +00:00
Jeremy Hylton 6e08d22b1a Add a default implementation of compile() to the base class.
The default implementation calls _compile() to compile individual
files.  This method must be implemented by the subclass.  This change
factors out most of the remaining common code in all the compilers
except mwerks.

Fred Drake 074712112b Played contortionist games with the argument_list production so it

Guido van Rossum 83ccb4e011 Michael fixed the race conditions and removed the sleeps.
This is his SF patch 569697.  I renamed main() to test_main() again so

Fred Drake 4837fa3a54 \productioncont: Replace leading spaces with   so that it's
possible to control the indentation of continuation lines.

cfuncline_helper():  Only mark the argument names are <var>, not the
    whole argument list.  This leaves the argument types in the same
    font as the return type.  Based on a casual suggestion from
    Guido.

Guido van Rossum a96b0df624 Patch from SF bug 570483 (Tim Northover).
In a fresh interpreter, type.mro(tuple) would segfault, because
PyType_Ready() isn't called for tuple yet.  To fix, call
PyType_Ready(type) if type->tp_dict is NULL.

Fred Drake ef5864ed71 SF patch #552837, submitted by Robert Pyron:
1. BUGFIX: In function makefile(), strip blanks from the nodename.
   This is necesary to match the behavior of parser.makeref() and
   parser.do_node().
2. BUGFIX fixed KeyError in end_ifset (well, I may have just made
   it go away, rather than fix it)
3. BUGFIX allow @menu and menu items inside @ifset or @ifclear
4. Support added for:
      @uref        URL reference
      @image       image file reference (see note below)
      @multitable  output an HTML table
      @vtable
5. Partial support for accents, to match MAKEINFO output
6. I added a new command-line option, '-H basename', to specify
   HTML Help output. This will cause three files to be created
   in the current directory:
      `basename`.hhp  HTML Help Workshop project file
      `basename`.hhc  Contents file for the project
      `basename`.hhk  Index file for the project
   When fed into HTML Help Workshop, the resulting file will be
   named `basename`.chm.
7. A new class, HTMLHelp, to accomplish item 6.
8. Various calls to HTMLHelp functions.
A NOTE ON IMAGES: Just as 'outputdirectory' must exist before
running this program, all referenced images must already exist
in outputdirectory.

FLD: wrapped some long lines.

Fred Drake 6fc22f6c3d Ensure \verbatiminput always uses a unique filename for each input file in

This patch enhances Python/import.c/find_module() so
that unicode objects found in sys.path will be treated
as legal directory names (The current code ignores
anything that is not a str). The unicode name is
converted to str using Py_FileSystemDefaultEncoding.

Guido van Rossum 9562bcf3bc Add Oren Tirosh and news about his patch. 2002-06-14 21:31:18 +00:00
Guido van Rossum bea18ccde6 SF patch 568629 by Oren Tirosh: types made callable.
These built-in functions are replaced by their (now callable) type:

    slice()
    buffer()

and these types can also be called (but have no built-in named
function named after them)

    classobj (type name used to be "class")
    code
    function
    instance
    instancemethod (type name used to be "instance method")

The module "new" has been replaced with a small backward compatibility
placeholder in Python.

A large portion of the patch simply removes the new module from
various platform-specific build recipes.  The following binary Mac
project files still have references to it:

    Mac/Build/PythonCore.mcp
    Mac/Build/PythonStandSmall.mcp
    Mac/Build/PythonStandalone.mcp

[I've tweaked the code layout and the doc strings here and there, and
added a comment to types.py about StringTypes vs. basestring.  --Guido]

Skip Montanaro 57454e57f8 This introduces stricter library/header file checking for the Berkeley DB
library.  Since multiple versions can be installed simultaneously, it's
crucial that you only select libraries and header files which are compatible
with each other.  Version checking is done from highest version to lowest.
Building using version 1 of Berkeley DB is disabled by default because of
the hash file bugs people keep rediscovering.  It can be enabled by
uncommenting a few lines in setup.py.  Closes patch 553108.
