Just van Rossum b9b8e9cf6d My previous checkin caused compile() to no longer accept buffers, as noted
my MAL. Fixed. (Btw. eval() still doesn't take buffers, but that was so
even before my patch.)

Just van Rossum 3aaf42c613 patch #683515: "Add unicode support to compile(), eval() and exec"
Incorporated nnorwitz's comment re. Py__USING_UNICODE.

Walter Dörwald c3da83fcd7 Make sure filter() never returns tuple, str or unicode
subclasses. (Discussed in SF patch #665835)

Walter Dörwald 531e000d2e PyUnicode_Resize() doesn't free its argument in case of a failure,
so we can jump to the error handling code that does.
(Spotted by Neal Norwitz)

Walter Dörwald 903f1e0c40 filterstring() and filterunicode() in Python/bltinmodule.c
blindly assumed that tp_as_sequence->sq_item always returns
a str or unicode object. This might fail with str or unicode
subclasses.

This patch checks whether the object returned from __getitem__
is a str/unicode object and raises a TypeError if not (and
the filter function returned true).

Furthermore the result for __getitem__ can be more than one
character long, so checks for enough memory have to be done.

Raymond Hettinger ea3fdf44a2 SF patch #659536: Use PyArg_UnpackTuple where possible.
Obtain cleaner coding and a system wide
performance boost by using the fast, pre-parsed
PyArg_Unpack function instead of PyArg_ParseTuple
function which is driven by a format string.

Walter Dörwald d9a6ad3beb Enhance issubclass() and PyObject_IsSubclass() so that a tuple is
supported as the second argument. This has the same meaning as
for isinstance(), i.e. issubclass(X, (A, B)) is equivalent
to issubclass(X, A) or issubclass(X, B). Compared to isinstance(),
this patch does not search the tuple recursively for classes, i.e.
any entry in the tuple that is not a class, will result in a
TypeError.

This closes SF patch #649608.

Guido van Rossum c7903a13d2 A nice little speed-up for filter():
- Use PyObject_Call() instead of PyEval_CallObject(), saves several
  layers of calls and checks.

- Pre-allocate the argument tuple rather than calling Py_BuildValue()
  each time round the loop.

- For filter(None, seq), avoid an INCREF and a DECREF.

Martin v. Löwis 31d2df5b60 Patch #550192: Set softspace to 0 in raw_input(). 2002-08-14 15:46:02 +00:00
Marc-André Lemburg cc8764ca9d Add C API PyUnicode_FromOrdinal() which exposes unichr() at C level.
u'%c' will now raise a ValueError in case the argument is an
integer outside the valid range of Unicode code point ordinals.

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]

conformity with range().

Neal Norwitz 32a7e7f6b6 Change name from string to basestring 2002-05-31 19:58:02 +00:00
Guido van Rossum cacfc07d08 - A new type object, 'string', is added. This is a common base type
for 'str' and 'unicode', and can be used instead of
  types.StringTypes, e.g. to test whether something is "a string":
  isinstance(x, string) is True for Unicode and 8-bit strings.  This
  is an abstract base class and cannot be instantiated directly.

Tim Peters 39a86c2188 SF bug 555042: zip() may trigger MemoryError.
NOT a bugfix candidate:  this is a fix to an optimization introduced
in 2.3.
2002-05-12 07:19:38 +00:00
Tim Peters 67d687a114 builtin_zip(): Take a good guess at how big the result list will be,
and allocate it in one gulp.

This isn't a bugfix, it's just a minor optimization that may or may not
pay off.

Tim Peters 5de9842b34 Repair widespread misuse of _PyString_Resize. Since it's clear people
don't understand how this function works, also beefed up the docs.  The
most common usage error is of this form (often spread out across gotos):

	if (_PyString_Resize(&s, n) < 0) {
		Py_DECREF(s);
		s = NULL;
		goto outtahere;
	}

The error is that if _PyString_Resize runs out of memory, it automatically
decrefs the input string object s (which also deallocates it, since its
refcount must be 1 upon entry), and sets s to NULL.  So if the "if"
branch ever triggers, it's an error to call Py_DECREF(s):  s is already
NULL!  A correct way to write the above is the simpler (and intended)

	if (_PyString_Resize(&s, n) < 0)
		goto outtahere;

Bugfix candidate.

Guido van Rossum 7dab2426ca - New builtin function enumerate(x), from PEP 279. Example:
enumerate("abc") is an iterator returning (0,"a"), (1,"b"), (2,"c").
  The argument can be an arbitrary iterable object.

Jack Jansen 7b8c7546eb Mass checkin of universal newline support.
Highlights: import and friends will understand any of \r, \n and \r\n
as end of line. Python file input will do the same if you use mode 'U'.
Everything can be disabled by configuring with --without-universal-newlines.

See PEP278 for details.
2002-04-14 20:12:41 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 77f6a65eb0 Add the 'bool' type and its values 'False' and 'True', as described in
PEP 285.  Everything described in the PEP is here, and there is even
some documentation.  I had to fix 12 unit tests; all but one of these
were printing Boolean outcomes that changed from 0/1 to False/True.
(The exception is test_unicode.py, which did a type(x) == type(y)
style comparison.  I could've fixed that with a single line using
issubtype(x, type(y)), but instead chose to be explicit about those
places where a bool is expected.

Still to do: perhaps more documentation; change standard library
modules to return False/True from predicates.

Tim Peters d50e544b9f Docstring for filter(): Someone on the Tutor list reasonably complained
that it didn't tell enough of the truth.
Bugfix candidate (I guess -- it helps and it's harmless).

Guido van Rossum 03290ecbf1 Implement isinstance(x, (A, B, ...)). Note that we only allow tuples,
not other sequences (then we'd have to except strings, and we'd still
be susceptible to recursive attacks).
2001-10-07 20:54:12 +00:00
Tim Peters 742dfd6f17 Get rid of builtin_open() entirely (the C code and docstring, not the
builtin function); Guido pointed out that it could be just another
name in the __builtin__ dict for the file constructor now.

Tim Peters 7eea37e831 At Guido's suggestion, here's a new C API function, PyObject_Dir(), like
__builtin__.dir().  Moved the guts from bltinmodule.c to object.c.
2001-09-04 22:08:56 +00:00
Tim Peters 37a309db70 builtin_dir(): Treat classic classes like types. Use PyDict_Keys instead
of PyMapping_Keys because we know we have a real dict.  Tolerate that
objects may have an attr named "__dict__" that's not a dict (Py_None
popped up during testing).

test_descr.py, test_dir():  Test the new classic-class behavior; beef up
the new-style class test similarly.

test_pyclbr.py, checkModule():  dir(C) is no longer a synonym for
C.__dict__.keys() when C is a classic class (looks like the same thing
that burned distutils! -- should it be *made* a synoym again?  Then it
would be inconsistent with new-style class behavior.).
2001-09-04 01:20:04 +00:00
Tim Peters 5d2b77cf31 Make dir() wordier (see the new docstring). The new behavior is a mixed
bag.  It's clearly wrong for classic classes, at heart because a classic
class doesn't have a __class__ attribute, and I'm unclear on whether
that's feature or bug.  I'll repair this once I find out (in the
meantime, dir() applied to classic classes won't find the base classes,
while dir() applied to a classic-class instance *will* find the base
classes but not *their* base classes).

Please give the new dir() a try and see whether you love it or hate it.
The new dir([]) behavior is something I could come to love.  Here's
something to hate:

>>> class C:
...     pass
...
>>> c = C()
>>> dir(c)
['__doc__', '__module__']
>>>

The idea that an instance has a __doc__ attribute is jarring (of course
it's really c.__class__.__doc__ == C.__doc__; likewise for __module__).

OTOH, the code already has too many special cases, and dir(x) doesn't
have a compelling or clear purpose when x isn't a module.

Guido van Rossum f5cb357468 Add 'super' builtin type. 2001-08-24 16:52:18 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 29a62dd6eb Add new built-in type 'getset' (PyGetSet_Type).
This implements the 'getset' class from test_binop.py.
2001-08-23 21:40:38 +00:00
Tim Peters 9fa96bed6f Fix for bug [#452230] future division isn't propagated.
builtin_eval wasn't merging in the compiler flags from the current frame;
I suppose we never noticed this before because future division is the
first future-feature that can affect expressions (nested_scopes and
generators had only statement-level effects).
2001-08-17 23:04:59 +00:00
Tim Peters 6cd6a82db9 A fiddled version of the rest of Michael Hudson's SF patch
#449043 supporting __future__ in simulated shells
