Walter Dörwald 69652035bc SF patch #998993: The UTF-8 and the UTF-16 stateful decoders now support 
decoding incomplete input (when the input stream is temporarily exhausted).
codecs.StreamReader now implements buffering, which enables proper
readline support for the UTF-16 decoders. codecs.StreamReader.read()
has a new argument chars which specifies the number of characters to
return. codecs.StreamReader.readline() and codecs.StreamReader.readlines()
have a new argument keepends. Trailing "\n"s will be stripped from the lines
if keepends is false. Added C APIs PyUnicode_DecodeUTF8Stateful and
PyUnicode_DecodeUTF16Stateful.

Tim Peters 1fbf9c5ec1 Added IGNORE_EXCEPTION_DETAIL comparison option. The need is explained 
in the new docs.

DocTestRunner.__run:  Separate the determination of the example outcome
from reporting that outcome, to squash brittle code duplication and
excessive nesting.

some escaping bugs in SRE.
 2004-09-03 17:06:10 +00:00
Skip Montanaro 0bbf137fbd Make the api of the _dispatch() method more concrete. I have no idea if 
this is the right way to document such things (Fred, help me out here :-),
but I got misled by the existing documentation and assumed the parameter
list was a *args sort of thing.

Tim Peters 38330fe5ef The distinction between comparison flags and reporting flags isn't unique 
to unittest, so make it official:  new module constants COMPARISON_FLAGS
and REPORTING_FLAGS, which are bitmasks or'ing together the relevant
individual option flags.

set_unittest_reportflags():  Reworked to use REPORTING_FLAGS, and
simplified overly complicated flag logic.

class FakeModule:  Removed this; neither documented nor used.

Edward Loper a89f88d53f Added REPORT_ONLY_FIRST_FAILURE flag, which supresses output after the 
first failing example in each test.
 2004-08-26 02:45:51 +00:00
Edward Loper 71f55af826 Renamed UNIFIED_DIFF->REPORT_UDIFF; CONTEXT_DIFF->REPORT_CDIFF; and 
NDIFF_DIFF->REPORT_NDIFF.  This establishes the naming convention that
all reporting options should begin with "REPORT_" (since reporting
options are a different class from output comparison options; but they
are both set in optionflags).

Edward Loper 19b1958730 Only recognize the expected output as an exception if it *starts* with 
a traceback message.  I.e., examples that raise exceptions may no
longer generate pre-exception output.  This restores the behavior of
doctest in python 2.3.  The ability to check pre-exception output is
being removed because it makes the documentation simpler; and because
there are very few use cases for it.

Barry Warsaw 8bee76106e PEP 292 classes Template and SafeTemplate are added to the string module. 
This patch includes test cases and documentation updates, as well as NEWS file
updates.

This patch also updates the sre modules so that they don't import the string
module, breaking direct circular imports.

Tim Peters c885443479 Stop producing or using OverflowWarning. PEP 237 thought this would 
happen in 2.3, but nobody noticed it still was getting generated (the
warning was disabled by default).  OverflowWarning and
PyExc_OverflowWarning should be removed for 2.5, and left notes all over
saying so.

Michael W. Hudson 0ccff074cd This is Mark Russell's patch: 
[ 1009560 ] Fix @decorator evaluation order

From the description:

Changes in this patch:

- Change Grammar/Grammar to require
newlines between adjacent decorators.

- Fix order of evaluation of decorators
in the C (compile.c) and python
(Lib/compiler/pycodegen.py) compilers

- Add better order of evaluation check
to test_decorators.py (test_eval_order)

- Update the decorator documentation in
the reference manual (improve description
of evaluation order and update syntax
description)

and the comment:

Used Brett's evaluation order (see
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2004-August/047835.html)

(I'm checking this in for Anthony who was having problems getting SF to
talk to him)

Andrew M. Kuchling 7ec7584813 Typo fix 2004-08-16 16:12:23 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger d3fe2395b4 Minor improvements to the threading introduction: 
* Expand the example to show a join.

* Mention the use case of I/O running concurrent with a computational
  thread.

* Be a tad more forceful about recommending Queue over other approaches
  to synchonization.

* Eliminate discussion around having a single interpreter.  This is a
  more advanced discussion that belongs in the library reference and
  in a section on extending and embedding.

Tim Peters feec4533e2 Bug 1003935: xrange overflows 
Added XXX comment about why the undocumented PyRange_New() API function
is too broken to be worth the considerable pain of repairing.

Changed range_new() to stop using PyRange_New().  This fixes a variety
of bogus errors.  Nothing in the core uses PyRange_New() now.

Documented that xrange() is intended to be simple and fast, and that
CPython restricts its arguments, and length of its result sequence, to
native C longs.

Added some tests that failed before the patch, and repaired a test that
relied on a bogus OverflowError getting raised.

more about the pickle module should decide if they're important enough

Fred Drake d04573fef0 This allows additional commands to be provided for existing setup.py 
scripts without modifying either the distutils installation or the
setup.py scripts of packages with which the new commands will be used.

Specifically, an option is added to distutils that allows additional
packages to be searched for command implementations in addition to
distutils.command.  The additional packages can be specified on the
command line or via the installation or personal configuration files
already loaded by distutils.

For discussion, see the thread starting with:

http://mail.python.org/pipermail/distutils-sig/2004-August/004112.html

This closes SF patch #102241.

docs said so, but the environ docs didn't).

Gustavo Niemeyer 7bd33c5e22 This change implements the following gettext features, as 
discussed recently in python-dev:

In _locale module:

- bind_textdomain_codeset() binding

In gettext module:

- bind_textdomain_codeset() function
- lgettext(), lngettext(), ldgettext(), ldngettext(),
  which return translated strings encoded in
  preferred system encoding, if
  bind_textdomain_codeset() was not used.
- Added equivalent functionality in translate()
  function and catalog classes.

Every change was also documented.
