the command's sub-commands as well (off by default). This is essential if
we want to be be able to run (eg.) "install" twice in one run, as happens
when generating multiple built distributions in one run.
families" -- eg. install and its brood, build and its brood, and so forth.
Specifically: added the 'sub_commands' class attribute (empty list, sub-
classes must override it) and a comment describing it, and the
'get_sub_commands()' method.
Strings are unpickled by calling eval on the string's repr. This
change makes pickle work like cPickle; it checks if the pickled
string is safe to eval and raises ValueError if it is not.
test suite modifications:
Verify that pickle catches a variety of insecure string pickles
Make test_pickle and test_cpickle use exactly the same test suite
Add test for pickling recursive object
of globals from sysconfig.
Added 'prefix' and 'exec_prefix' to the list of variables that can be
expanded in installation directories (preserving the stupid old names
of 'sys_prefix' and 'sys_exec_prefix, though).
all that work when someone asks for a "configuration variable" from the
Makefile. Details:
- added 'get_config_vars()': responsible for calling one of the
'_init_*()' functions to figure things out for this platform,
and to provide an interface to the resulting dictionary
- added 'get_config_var()' as a simple interface to the dictionary
loaded by 'get_config_vars()'
- changed the '_init_*()' functions so they load the global dictionary
'_config_vars', rather than spewing their findings all over
the module namespace
- don't delete the '_init_*()' functions when done importing
- adjusted 'customize_compiler()' to the new regime
character according to RFC 2396. Add some text to quote doc string
that explains the quoting rules better.
This closes SF Bug #114427.
Add _fast_quote operation that uses a dictionary instead of a list
when the standard set of safe characters is used.
mailbox.py (from the CVS tree) doesn't work with qmail Maildirs:
Filenames are completed when the directories are scanned, and
the directory name is prepended again in the next() method.
Another suggestion: Change the print statement in the _test()
driver to show two more date characters (probably the length
has increased due to the recent Y2K hype ;). Now it shows the
complete date, including the seconds -- at least for me. (I've
also made the sender field left justified, in case it is ever
shorter than the field width).
used to create the distribution and the creation date.
Takes care of the extra_path argument to the setup function,
installs the modules into <prefix>/extra_path and creates
a -pth file (like install_lib does).
Paid more attention to the comments on the report; Martin suggested just
not having a __del__() method, which makes more sense in this case. So
I have removed it.
This closes SourceForge bug #113850. Again.
The posixfile __del__ method attempts to close the file (_file_) it
contains. However, if the open() method fails, then _file_ is never
assigned.
This closes SourceForge bug #113850.
distutils/command/bdist_wininst.py:
- the windows installer is again able to compile after installing
the files. Note: The default has changed, the packager has to
give --no-target-compile/--no-target-optimize to NOT compile
on the target system. (Another note: install_lib's --compile
--optimize options have the same semantics to switch off
the compilation. Shouldn't the names change?)
- All references to specific python versions are gone.
- A small bug:
raise DistutilsPlatformError ("...")
instead of
raise DistutilsPlatformError, ("...")
- When bdist_wininst creates an installer for one specific python
version, this is reflected in the name:
Distutils-0.9.2.win32-py15.exe instead of
Distutils-0.9.2.win32.exe
- bdist_wininst, when run as script, reads the wininst.exe file
and rewrites itself. Previously this was done by hand.
misc/install.c
- All the changes needed for compilation
- Deleted a lot of debug/dead code
waste an hour tracking down an illusion; repaired it; writing/reading non-
printable characters (except \t\r\n) into/outof text-mode files ain't
defined x-platform, and at least some Windows text editors do surprising
things in their presence.
Also added a by-hand "build humber" to the Windows build, in an approximation
of Python's inexplicable BUILD-number Unix scheme. I'll try to remember to
increment it each time I make a Windows installer available. It's starting
at 2, cuz I've put 2 installers out so far (both with BUILD #0).
This was a funny one! The test very subtly relied on 1.5.2's
behavior of treating "\x%" as "\x%", i.e. ignoring that was an
\x escape that didn't make sense. But /F implemented PEP 223,
which causes 2.0 to raise an exception on the bad escape.
Fixed by merely making the 3 such strings of this kind into
raw strings.
newlines at the start or end. Fiddle test_popen2 and popen2._test() to
tolerate this. Also change all "assert"s in these tests to raise
explicit exceptions, so that python -O doesn't render them useless.
Also, in case of error, make the msg display the reprs of what we
wrote and what we read, so we can tell exactly why it's failing.
Fix import support to work with import as variant of Python 2.0. The
grammar for import changed, requiring changes in transformer and code
generator, even to handle compilation of imports with as.
Python test suite. Specifically,
- import time instead of strop in test_b1
- test for ClassType of exceptions using isinstance instead of
equality in test_exceptions
- remove __builtins__ from dir() output in test_pkg
test_pkg output needs to be regenerated.
#101187, which some modifications. Specifically,
ntransfercmd(), transfercmd(), and retrbinary() all grow an optional
`rest' argument, which if not None, is used as the argument to an FTP
REST comman dbefore the socket is returned. Differences from the SF
patch:
- always compare against None with `is' or `is not' instead of == or !=
- no parens around conditional
- RFC 959 defines the argument to REST is a string containing any
ASCII characters in the range [33..126]. Therefore, we use the %s
format character instead of %f or %d as suggested in the patch's
comments. Note that we do /not/ sanity checkthe contents of the
rest argument (but we'll document this in the library reference
manual).
unbuffered (by setting the class variable rbufsize to 0), because we
(may) need to pass the file descriptor to the subprocess running the
CGI script positioned after the headers.
and wfile class variables (that the instance can also override).
Change the default for rfile to buffered, because that seems to make a
big difference in performance on some platforms.
An anti-patch is needed to revert the effect in CGIHTTPServer.py which
I'll check in momentarily.
* ensure the "dist" directory exists
* raise exception if using for modules containing compiled extensions
on a non-win32 platform.
* don't create an .ini file anymore (it was just for debugging)
fairly tight control, and the '_setup_stop_after' and '_setup_distribution'
globals to provide the tight control.
This isn't entirely reliable yet: it dies horribly with a NameError on the
example PIL setup script in examples/pil_setup.py (at least with Python
1.5.2; untested with current Python). There's some strangeness going
on with execfile(), but I don't understand it and don't have time
to track it down right now.
Since the application never gets to see the namespace abbreviation
used in the XML document, but some applications may need to know them,
we provide this method.
according to the MS docs it enables exception-handling, and (according
to Alex Martelli <aleaxit@yahoo.com>) is needed to compile without
getting warnings from standard C++ library headers. Apparently
it doesn't cause any problems with C code, so I haven't bothered
conditionalizing the use of /GX.
* deletes cache
* adds firstweekday and setfirstweekday functions that allow user to control
which day of the week is first when displaying calendars
* adds month, week, calendar functions that return their results instead of
printing them
* adds symbolic constants MONDAY, ..., SUNDAY so users need not remember the
ordinal values of the weekdays
In test_poll1(), unregister file descriptors as they're closed,
and also close the read end of the pipe
In test_poll2(), make the code assume less about the combinations of flag
bits that will be returned
