Jim Fulton 8c5aeaa277 Implemented a new Py_CLEAR macro. This macro should be used when 
decrementing the refcount of variables that might be accessed as a
result of calling Python
 2004-07-14 19:07:35 +00:00
Tim Peters e45d5a3b00 Claifications: visit procs are supplied by the core, users aren't 
expected to write their own.  A NULL "object" must not be passed to
the visit callback.  A non-zero return from a visit proc isn't
necessarily an error return (and it doesn't matter to the tp_traverse
code *what* it might signify, their only job is to return it).

Tim Peters 183dabcd73 SF patch 986010: add missing doc for datetime C API, from 
Anthony Tuininga.

This is a derived patch, taking the opportunity to add some organization
to the now-large pile of datetime-related macros, and to factor out
tedious repeated text.

Also improved some clumsy wording in NEWS.

Brett Cannon 711e7d97e4 Add PyArg_VaParseTupleAndKeywords(). Document this function and

Andrew M. Kuchling 371d98ab15 [Bug #987835] Add documentation from PEP 311. (Untested TeX code.) 2004-07-10 13:31:18 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling ee5e4cd899 [Bug #984017] Incorrect prototype, fixed by Timothy Stranex 2004-07-07 13:07:47 +00:00
Brett Cannon d88471f432 Change signatures for arguments to "s" and friends to be the proper ``const 
char *`` instead of just ``char *``.  Also added the mentioning of "const" in
some places where it was left out even when the signature already stated the
fact.

Closes bug #980925.

Andrew M. Kuchling 6d3a0d2dff [Bug #948970] Add PyExc_* symbols to index. 
(I ran this through texcheck, but don't have LaTeX installed on this machine and therefore haven't
verified that the changes are accepted by LaTeX.)

Martin v. Löwis ef82d2fdfe Patch #923098: Share interned strings in marshal. 2004-06-27 16:51:46 +00:00
Tim Peters 9ddf40b4e1 SF patch 876130: add C API to datetime module, from Anthony Tuininga. 
The LaTeX is untested (well, so is the new API, for that matter).
Note that I also changed NULL to get spelled consistently in concrete.tex.
If that was a wrong thing to do, Fred should yell at me.

Nicholas Bastin e9c2ecfb96 Removed 'U' from the documentation for Py_BuildValue to bring it in line 
with the elimination of 'U' in modsupport.c on 2000/04/28 (replaced
with 'u' and 'u#' per fdrake's comments).

 2004-01-01 05:43:53 +00:00
Andrew MacIntyre f72af655c5 At 2.2, the Py<type>_Check() family of API functions (macros) changed 
semantics to include subtypes.  Most concrete object APIs then had
a Py<type>_CheckExact() macro added to test for an object's type
not including subtypes.

The PyDict_CheckExact() macro wasn't created at that time, so I've added
it for API completeness/symmetry - even though nobody has complained
about its absence in the time since 2.2 was released.

Not a backport candidate.
 2003-12-26 00:07:51 +00:00
Andrew MacIntyre 13cd8898d2 The semantics of PyList_Check() and PyDict_Check() changed at 2.2, along 
with most other concrete object checks, but the docs weren't brought into
line.

PyList_CheckExact() was added at 2.2 but never documented.

backport candidate.

 2003-04-16 17:28:12 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 0fc8f00252 - pythunrun.c, Py_Finalize(): move the call to _Py_PrintReferences() 
even farther down, to just before the call to
  _PyObject_DebugMallocStats().  This required the following changes:

- pystate.c, PyThreadState_GetDict(): changed not to raise an
  exception or issue a fatal error when no current thread state is
  available, but simply return NULL without raising an exception
  (ever).

- object.c, Py_ReprEnter(): when PyThreadState_GetDict() returns NULL,
  don't raise an exception but return 0.  This means that when
  printing a container that's recursive, printing will go on and on
  and on.  But that shouldn't happen in the case we care about (see
  first bullet).

- Updated Misc/NEWS and Doc/api/init.tex to reflect changes to
  PyThreadState_GetDict() definition.

Skip Montanaro ae31e9b8c7 Add PyFloat_FromString. Left the char **pend argument out of the

Fred Drake f536827c65 Include version annotation for PyObject_Call(). 2003-01-25 07:48:13 +00:00
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.
