Facundo Batista 7e251e83d5 Issue 1089358. Adds the siginterrupt() function, that is just a
wrapper around the system call with the same name.  Also added
test cases, doc changes and NEWS entry. Thanks Jason and Ralf
Schmitt.

with some help from Georg
2008-02-23 15:01:05 +00:00
Facundo Batista b12f0b581a Issue 1781. Now ConfigParser.add_section does not let you add a
DEFAULT section any more, because it duplicated sections with
the rest of the machinery. Thanks Tim Lesher and Manuel Kaufmann.
2008-02-23 12:46:10 +00:00
Facundo Batista fc2d01032f Issue 1881. Increased the stack limit from 500 to 1500. Also added
a test for this (and because of this test you'll see in stderr a
message that parser.c sends before raising MemoryError).
Thanks Ralf Schmitt.

Guido van Rossum 8bc0965adf Removed uses of dict.has_key() from distutils, and uses of
callable() from copy_reg.py, so the interpreter now starts up
without warnings when '-3' is given.  More work like this needs to
be done in the rest of the stdlib.

Eric Smith 7ef40bf9c7 Trim leading zeros from a floating point exponent, per C99. See issue 1600. As far as I know, this only affects Windows. Add float type 'n' to PyOS_ascii_formatd (see PEP 3101 for 'n' description). 2008-02-20 23:34:22 +00:00

Christian Heimes 5b970ad483 Unified naming convention for free lists and their limits. All free lists
in Object/ are named ``free_list``, the counter ``numfree`` and the upper
limit is a macro ``PyName_MAXFREELIST`` inside an #ifndef block.

The chances should make it easier to adjust Python for platforms with
less memory, e.g. mobile phones.

* Make it possible to regenerate the expected output by running
  the file as a script with an '-r' argument.

2008-02-05 11:51:40 +00:00
Amaury Forgeot d'Arc 6fd03bb607 #1750076: Debugger did not step on every iteration of a while statement.
The mapping between bytecode offsets and source lines (lnotab) did not contain
an entry for the beginning of the loop.

Now it does, and the lnotab can be a bit larger:
in particular, several statements on the same line generate several entries.
However, this does not bother the settrace function, which will trigger only
one 'line' event.

The lnotab seems to be exactly the same as with python2.4.

Christian Heimes 422051a367 Patch #1953
I implemented the function sys._compact_freelists() and C API functions PyInt_/PyFloat_CompactFreeList() to compact the pre-allocated blocks of ints and floats. They allow the user to reduce the memory usage of a Python process that deals with lots of numbers.
The patch also renames sys._cleartypecache to sys._clear_type_cache

Amaury Forgeot d'Arc cab3d98ca1 Ensure that PySet_Add() operates on a newly created frozenset, like PyTuple_SetItem does.

Christian Heimes 7f39c9fcbb Backport of several functions from Python 3.0 to 2.6 including PyUnicode_FromString, PyUnicode_Format and PyLong_From/AsSsize_t. The functions are partly required for the backport of the bytearray type and _fileio module. They should also make it easier to port C to 3.0.
First chapter of the Python 3.0 io framework back port: _fileio
The next step depends on a working bytearray type which itself depends on a backport of the nwe buffer API.

Facundo Batista 4473d225a8 Issue 846388. Adds a call to PyErr_CheckSignals to
SRE_MATCH so that signal handlers can be invoked during
long regular expression matches.  It also adds a new
error return value indicating that an exception
occurred in a signal handler during the match, allowing
exceptions in the signal handler to propagate up to the
main loop.  Thanks Josh Hoyt and Ralf Schmitt.

Amaury Forgeot d'Arc e0b7695286 Partial port of r59682 from py3k.
On Windows, when import fails to load a dll module, the message says
"error code 193" instead of a more informative text.

It turns out that FormatMessage needs additional parameters for some error codes.
For example: 193 means "%1 is not a valid Win32 application".
Since it is impossible to know which parameter to pass, we use
FORMAT_MESSAGE_IGNORE_INSERTS to get the raw message, which is still better
than the number.

Jeffrey Yasskin 2f3c16be73 Backport PEP 3141 from the py3k branch to the trunk. This includes r50877 (just

r57372, r57738, r57739, r58017, r58039, r58040, and r59390, and new

Christian Heimes d9fbab2621 Removed PCbuild8/ directory and added a new build directory for VS 2005
based on the VS 2008 build directory to PC/VS8.0. The script
PCbuild/vs8to9.py was added to sync changes from PCbuild to PC/VS8.0.

Kristjan, the initial creator of the PCbuild8 directory is fine with the replacement. I've moved the new version of the VS 2005 build directory next to the other legacy build directories. The new sync script is based on the work of wreck and syncs changes in the project, property and solution files.

Raymond Hettinger fd7ed407d7 Give meaning to the oparg for BUILD_MAP: estimated size of the dictionary.
Allows dictionaries to be pre-sized (upto 255 elements) saving time lost
to re-sizes with their attendant mallocs and re-insertions.

Has zero effect on small dictionaries (5 elements or fewer), a slight
benefit for dicts upto 22 elements (because they had to resize once
anyway), and more benefit for dicts upto 255 elements (saving multiple
resizes during the build-up and reducing the number of collisions on
the first insertions).  Beyond 255 elements, there is no addional benefit.

Amaury Forgeot d'Arc 0d75f09177 Merge from py3k branch:
Correction for issue1265 (pdb bug with "with" statement).

When an unfinished generator-iterator is garbage collected, PyEval_EvalFrameEx
is called with a GeneratorExit exception set.  This leads to funny results
if the sys.settrace function itself makes use of generators.
A visible effect is that the settrace function is reset to None.
Another is that the eventual "finally" block of the generator is not called.

It is necessary to save/restore the exception around the call to the trace
function.

This happens a lot with py3k: isinstance() of an ABCMeta instance runs
    def __instancecheck__(cls, instance):
        """Override for isinstance(instance, cls)."""
        return any(cls.__subclasscheck__(c)
                   for c in {instance.__class__, type(instance)})
which lets an opened generator expression each time it returns True.

Backport candidate, even if the case is less frequent in 2.5.

could trigger an infinite recursion, but it could in C code..  Both found
thanks to BaseException and how it handles its repr.

Brett Cannon 4c20bc40d7 Generators had their throw() method allowing string exceptions. That's a
no-no.

exception is passed in.

Brett Cannon 1e534b5425 Fix a crasher where Python code managed to infinitely recurse in C code without
ever going back out to Python code in PyObject_Call().  Required introducing a
static RuntimeError instance so that normalizing an exception there is no
reliance on a recursive call that would put the exception system over the
recursion check itself.

Lars Gustäbel a0fcb9384e Added errors argument to TarFile class that allows the user to
specify an error handling scheme for character conversion. Additional
scheme "utf-8" in read mode. Unicode input filenames are now
supported by design. The values of the pax_headers dictionary are now
limited to unicode objects.

Fixed: The prefix field is no longer used in PAX_FORMAT (in
conformance with POSIX).
Fixed: In read mode use a possible pax header size field.
Fixed: Strip trailing slashes from pax header name values.
Fixed: Give values in user-specified pax_headers precedence when
writing.

Added unicode tests. Added pax/regtype4 member to testtar.tar all
possible number fields in a pax header.

Added two chapters to the documentation about the different formats
tarfile.py supports and how unicode issues are handled.

patch taken from http://bugs.debian.org/416934.
2007-04-03 04:35:59 +00:00
Brett Cannon c69066501b time.strptime's caching of its locale object was being recreated when the
locale changed but not used during the function call it was recreated during.

The test in this checkin is untested (OS X does not have the proper locale
support for me to test), although the fix for the bug this deals with
was tested by the OP (#1290505).  Once the buildbots verify the test at least
doesn't fail it becomes a backport candidate.
2007-04-01 18:47:27 +00:00
Neal Norwitz 8f35f44af3 SF #1685563, MSVCCompiler creates redundant and long PATH strings
If MSVCCompiler.initialize() was called multiple times, the path
would get duplicated.  On Windows, this is a problem because the
path is limited to 4k.  There's no benefit in adding a path multiple
times, so prevent that from occuring.  We also normalize the path
before checking for duplicates so things like /a and /a/ won't both
be stored.

Will backport.

Guido van Rossum 143b564059 - Bug #1683368: The object.__init__() and object.__new__() methods are
now stricter in rejecting excess arguments.  The only time when
  either allows excess arguments is when it is not overridden and the
  other one is.  For backwards compatibility, when both are
  overridden, it is a deprecation warning (for now; maybe a Py3k
  warning later).

When merging this into 3.0, the warnings should become errors.

Note: without the change to string.py, lots of spurious warnings happen.
What's going on there?

Lars Gustäbel c64e40215d This is the implementation of POSIX.1-2001 (pax) format read/write
support.

The TarInfo class now contains all necessary logic to process and
create tar header data which has been moved there from the TarFile
class. The fromtarfile() method was added. The new path and linkpath
properties are aliases for the name and linkname attributes in
correspondence to the pax naming scheme.

The TarFile constructor and classmethods now accept a number of
keyword arguments which could only be set as attributes before (e.g.
dereference, ignore_zeros). The encoding and pax_headers arguments
were added for pax support. There is a new tarinfo keyword argument
that allows using subclassed TarInfo objects in TarFile.

The boolean TarFile.posix attribute is deprecated, because now three
tar formats are supported. Instead, the desired format for writing is
specified using the constants USTAR_FORMAT, GNU_FORMAT and PAX_FORMAT
as the format keyword argument. This change affects TarInfo.tobuf()
as well.

The test suite has been heavily reorganized and partially rewritten.
A new testtar.tar was added that contains sample data in many formats
from 4 different tar programs.

Some bugs and quirks that also have been fixed:
Directory names do no longer have a trailing slash in TarInfo.name or
TarFile.getnames().
Adding the same file twice does not create a hardlink file member.
The TarFile constructor does no longer need a name argument.
The TarFile._mode attribute was renamed to mode and contains either
'r', 'w' or 'a'.

Collin Winter fb728de5f4 Add NEWS item for patch #1481079 (r54234). 2007-03-09 03:26:32 +00:00
Brett Cannon a30fcb4dae Introduce test.test_support.TransientResource. It's a context manager to
surround calls to resources that may or may not be available.  Specifying the
expected exception and attributes to be raised if the resource is not available
prevents overly broad catching of exceptions.

This is meant to help suppress spurious failures by raising
test.test_support.ResourceDenied if the exception matches.  It would probably
be good to go through the various network tests and surround the calls to catch
connection timeouts (as done with test_socket_ssl in this commit).

Brett Cannon 971a012ce1 Update the encoding package's search function to use absolute imports when
calling __import__.  This helps make the expected search locations for encoding
modules be more explicit.

One could use an explicit value for __path__ when making the call to __import__
to force the exact location searched for encodings.  This would give the most
strict search path possible if one is worried about malicious code being
imported.  The unfortunate side-effect of that is that if __path__ was modified
on 'encodings' on purpose in a safe way it would not be picked up in future
__import__ calls.

Brett Cannon 07e1db317d Fix time.strptime's %U support. Basically rewrote the algorithm to be more
generic so that one only has to shift certain values based on whether the week
was specified to start on Monday or Sunday.  Cut out a lot of edge case code
compared to the previous version.  Also broke algorithm out into its own
function (that is private to the module).

Fixes bug #1643943 (thanks Biran Nahas for the report).

There were no other cases in this file that it was called without the GIL.
Removing the BEGIN/END THREAD around _DB_get_type() made everything work.
