Bill Janssen 93bf9ce9b7 Fix some documentation bugs. 2007-09-11 02:42:07 +00:00
Bill Janssen 98d19dafd9 More work on SSL support.
* Much expanded test suite:

  All protocols tested against all other protocols.
  All protocols tested with all certificate options.
  Tests for bad key and bad cert.
  Test of STARTTLS functionality.
  Test of RAND_* functions.

* Fixes for threading/malloc bug.

* Issue 1065 fixed:

  sslsocket class renamed to SSLSocket.
  sslerror class renamed to SSLError.
  Function "wrap_socket" now used to wrap an existing socket.

* Issue 1583946 finally fixed:

  Support for subjectAltName added.
  Subject name now returned as proper DN list of RDNs.

* SSLError exported from socket as "sslerror".

* RAND_* functions properly exported from ssl.py.

* Documentation improved:

  Example of how to create a self-signed certificate.
  Better indexing.

Gregory P. Smith e9fef694b4 Change socket.error to inherit from IOError rather than being a stand
alone class.  This addresses the primary concern in

 http://bugs.python.org/issue1706815

python-dev discussion here:

 http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2007-July/073749.html

I chose IOError rather than EnvironmentError as the base class since
socket objects are often used as transparent duck typed file objects
in code already prepared to deal with IOError exceptions.

also a minor fix:

 urllib2 - fix a couple places where IOError was raised rather than URLError.
           for better or worse, URLError already inherits from IOError so
           this won't break any existing code.

 test_urllib2net - replace bad ftp urls.

Georg Brandl f11ed159f3 Stronger urge to convert filenames to str before using them as argument to ZipFile.write(). 2007-08-30 10:09:42 +00:00
Bill Janssen 426ea0a864 This contains a number of things:
1) Improve the documentation of the SSL module, with a fuller
   explanation of certificate usage, another reference, proper
   formatting of this and that.

2) Fix Windows bug in ssl.py, and general bug in sslsocket.close().
   Remove some unused code from ssl.py.  Allow accept() to be called on
   sslsocket sockets.

3) Use try-except-else in import of ssl in socket.py.  Deprecate use of
   socket.ssl().

4) Remove use of socket.ssl() in every library module, except for
   test_socket_ssl.py and test_ssl.py.
