Fred Drake a09262e860 Comment out section titles for sections that have not been written yet;
there is no need to clutter a reader's life with those useless things.

Make the snippets of Python code conform to the standard style.

Suppress the "Contents" page for HTML; it is not needed for small documents
in the online environment since LaTeX2HTML generates lots of tables of links
anyway.

Various markup consistency nits.

Guido van Rossum f89ad5ed6b Document configuration flags to compile for large file support on
certain Linux systems.
2001-03-01 18:29:57 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 4f53da07bf Two improvements to large file support:
- In _portable_ftell(), try fgetpos() before ftello() and ftell64().
  I ran into a situation on a 64-bit capable Linux where the C
  library's ftello() and ftell64() returned negative numbers despite
  fpos_t and off_t both being 64-bit types; fgetpos() did the right
  thing.

- Define a new typedef, Py_off_t, which is either fpos_t or off_t,
  depending on which one is 64 bits.  This removes the need for a lot
  of #ifdefs later on.  (XXX Should this be moved to pyport.h?  That
  file currently seems oblivious to large fille support, so for now
  I'll leave it here where it's needed.)

Tim Peters d1e87a8288 More MacOSX fiddling. As noted in a comment, I believe all variations
of these "search the directory" schemes (including this one) are still prone
to making mistakes.

Ka-Ping Yee 8b58b84d72 Add __author__ variable.
Robustify: don't rely on modules being present in sys.modules.
2001-03-01 13:56:16 +00:00
Ka-Ping Yee 66efbc7481 Docstring improvements.
Add checks for .pyo and .pyd.
Collapse docfunction, docmethod, docbuiltin into the one method docroutine.
Small formatting fixes.
Link the segments of a package path in the title.
Link to the source file only if it exists.
Allow modules (e.g. repr.py) to take precedence over built-ins (e.g. repr()).
Add interruptible synopsis scanner (so we can do searches in the background).
Make HTTP server quit.
Add small GUI for controlling the server and launching searches (like -k).
    (Tested on Win2k, Win98, and Linux.)

Fred Drake c63d3e9453 Suppress a compiler warning under OpenVMS; time_t is unsigned on (at least)
the more recent versions of that platform, so we use the value (time_t)(-1)
as the error value.  This is the type used in the OpenVMS documentation:

http://www.openvms.compaq.com/commercial/c/5763p048.htm#inde

This closes SF tracker bug #404240.

Also clean up an exception message when detecting overflow of time_t values
beyond 4 bytes.

Jeremy Hylton 7889107be7 Fix core dump in example from Samuele Pedroni:
from __future__ import nested_scopes
x=7
def f():
    x=1
    def g():
        global x
        def i():
            def h():
                return x
            return h()
        return i()
    return g()

print f()
print x

This kind of code didn't work correctly because x was treated as free
in i, leading to an attempt to load x in g to make a closure for i.

Solution is to make global decl apply to nested scopes unless their is
an assignment.  Thus, x in h is global.

Tim Peters 430f5d401d In Steven's apparent absence, check in *something* with a non-zero chance
of making new-fangled Mac imports work again.  May not work, and may not
even compile on his boxes, but should be at worst very close on both.

Guido van Rossum cd81ea1708 Use
find $(srcdir)/Lib -name '*.py[co]' -print | xargs rm -f

to remove all .py[co] files before testing, rather than just those in
the Lib/test directory.  "find" is used all over the Makefile so I
suppose it's safe; how about xargs?

Jeremy Hylton 4419ac1a97 Add warning/error handlin for problematic nested scopes cases as
described in PEP 227.

symtable_check_unoptimized() warns about import * and exec with "in"
when it is used in a function that contains a nested function with
free variables.  Warnings are issued unless nested scopes are in
effect, in which case these are SyntaxErrors.

symtable_check_shadow() warns about assignments in a function scope
that shadow free variables defined in a nested scope.  This will
always generate a warning -- and will behave differently with nested
scopes than without.

Restore full checking for free vars in children, even when nested
scopes are not enabled.  This is needed to support warnings for
shadowing.

Change symtable_warn() to return an int-- the return value of
PyErr_WarnExplicit.

Sundry cleanup: Remove commented out code.  Break long lines.
