- compile() didn't return a (empty) list of objects. Fixed.
- the various _fix_xxx_args() methods weren't called (are they new or did I overlook them?). Fixed.
write a BOM at the start of the stream and also to only read it as
BOM at the start of a stream.
Subsequent reading/writing of BOMs will read/write the BOM as ZWNBSP
character. This is in sync with the Unicode specifications.
Note that UTF-16 files will now *have* to start with a BOM mark
in order to be readable by the codec.
addition of interface for consistency with base64 module. Namely,
encodestring(), decodestring(): New functions which accept a string
object and return a string object. They just wrap the string in
StringIOs and pass them to the encode() and decode() methods
respectively. encodestring() accepts a default argument of quotetabs,
defaulting to zero, which is passed on straight through to encode().
encode(): Fix the bug where an extra newline would always be added to
the output, which prevented an idempotent roundtrip through
encode->decode. Now, if the source string doesn't end in a newline,
then the result string won't end in a newline.
Also, extend the quotetabs argument semantics to include quoting
embedded strings, which is also optional according to the RFC.
test() -> main()
"from quopri import *" also imports encodestring() and decodestring().
i_divmod: New and simpler algorithm. Old one returned gibberish on most
boxes when the numerator was -sys.maxint-1. Oddly enough, it worked in the
release (not debug) build on Windows, because the compiler optimized away
some tricky sign manipulations that were incorrect in this case.
Makes you wonder <wink> ...
Bugfix candidate.
Summary: NAMESPACE support in imaplib.py
Initial Comment:
Support for the IMAP NAMESPACE extension defined in rfc
2342. This is almost a necessity for working with
modern IMAP servers.
Unfortunately, the std-mode bBhHIL codes don't do any range-checking; if
and when some of those get fixed, remove their letters from the
IntTester.BUGGY_RANGE_CHECK string. In the meantime, a msg saying that
range-tests are getting skipped is printed to stdout whenever one is
skipped.
This completes the q/Q project.
longobject.c _PyLong_AsByteArray: The original code had a gross bug:
the most-significant Python digit doesn't necessarily have SHIFT
significant bits, and you really need to count how many copies of the sign
bit it has else spurious overflow errors result.
test_struct.py: This now does exhaustive std q/Q testing at, and on both
sides of, all relevant power-of-2 boundaries, both positive and negative.
NEWS: Added brief dict news while I was at it.
native mode, and only when config #defines HAVE_LONG_LONG. Standard mode
will eventually treat them as 8-byte ints across all platforms, but that
likely requires a new set of routines in longobject.c first (while
sizeof(long) >= 4 is guaranteed by C, there's nothing in C we can rely
on x-platform to hold 8 bytes of int, so we'll have to roll our own;
I'm thinking of a simple pair of conversion functions, Python long
to/from sized vector of unsigned bytes; that may be useful for GMP
conversions too; std q/Q would call them with size fixed at 8).
test_struct.py: In addition to adding some native-mode 'q' and 'Q' tests,
got rid of unused code, and repaired a non-portable assumption about
native sizeof(short) (it isn't 2 on some Cray boxes).
libstruct.tex: In addition to adding a bit of 'q'/'Q' docs (more needed
later), removed an erroneous footnote about 'I' behavior.
Patch from Michael Hundson.
format_exception_only() blew up when trying to report a SyntaxError
from a string input (line is None in this case, but it assumed a string).
Bugfix candidate.
Armin Rigo pointed out that the way the line-# table got built didn't work
for lines generating more than 255 bytes of bytecode. Fixed as he
suggested, plus corresponding changes to pyassem.py, plus added some
long overdue docs about this subtle table to compile.c.
Bugfix candidate (line numbers may be off in tracebacks under -O).
case of objects with equal types which support tp_compare. Give
type objects a tp_compare function.
Also add c<0 tests before a few PyErr_Occurred tests.
Ensure that all the default timers are called as functions, not an
expensive method wrapper around a variety of different functions.
Agressively avoid dictionary lookups.
Modify the dispatch scheme (Profile.trace_dispatch_*(), where * is not
'call', 'exception' or 'return') so that the callables dispatched to
are simple functions and not bound methods -- this reduces the number
of layers of Python call machinery that gets touched.
Remove a couple of duplicate imports from the "if __name__ == ..."
section.
This closes SF patch #430948.
be possible to provoke unbounded recursion now, but leaving that to someone
else to provoke and repair.
Bugfix candidate -- although this is getting harder to backstitch, and the
cases it's protecting against are mondo contrived.
random inputs: if you ran the test 100 times, you could expect it to
report a bogus failure. So loosened its expectations.
Also changed the way failing tests are printed, so that when run under
regrtest.py we get enough info to reproduce the failure.
exactly once. But the test code can't know that, as the number of times
__cmp__ is called depends on internal details of the dict implementation.
This is especially nasty because the __hash__ method returns the address
of the class object, so the hash codes seen by the dict can vary across
runs, causing the dict to use a different probe order across runs. I
just happened to see this test fail about 1 run in 7 today, but only
under a release build and when passing -O to Python. So, changed the test
to be predictable across runs.
name of the test, only write the output file if it already exists (and
tell the user to consider removing it). This avoids the generation of
unnecessary turds.
