Brett Cannon 9fc5631be6 Silence warnings in csv about using reduce() when run under -3 by using
functools.reduce() instead.
2008-08-09 23:39:11 +00:00
Brett Cannon 46265860c2 Use functools.reduce() in difflib instead of __builtin__.reduce() to silence
warnings when running under -3.
2008-08-09 23:34:11 +00:00
Brett Cannon 83e818415a Copy reduce() to _functools so to have functools.reduce() not raise a warning
from usage under -3.
2008-08-09 23:30:55 +00:00
Brett Cannon c1b76e4aaa Suppress the warning in asynchat from using buffer() when running udner -3.
Naively removing the usage causes a large number of test failures, so it was
just easier to suppress the warning.

Skip Montanaro a032bf41f6 accept issue 3436 2008-08-08 22:52:51 +00:00
Brett Cannon 3f92bc6f48 Remove buffer() usage in the socket module by just slicing directly on the
object. This removes all warnings for the module caused by running under -3.
2008-08-08 04:27:28 +00:00
Brett Cannon 03446c43ca Remove warnings generated for the suprocess module when run under -3. Required
commenting out True/False compatbility stuff, remove a use of apply(), and
remove a use of buffer() (just pulled the solution used in 3.0 which is direct
slicing).
2008-08-08 04:19:32 +00:00
Brett Cannon 3aa2a49ec9 Add imp.reload(). This to help with transitioning to 3.0 the reload() built-in
has been removed there.
2008-08-06 22:28:09 +00:00
Brett Cannon 7e30b67bf4 Add a note about all the modules/packages changed to silence -3 warnings. More
changes are needed once some decisions are made, but this is the work up to this
point.

Mark Dickinson b646757e01 Issue #1481296: (again!) Make conversion of a float NaN to an int or
long raise ValueError instead of returning 0.  Also, change the error
message for conversion of an infinity to an integer, replacing 'long' by
'integer', so that it's appropriate for both long(float('inf')) and
int(float('inf')).

Gregory P. Smith a36f8fefb0 - Issue #1857: subprocess.Popen.poll gained an additional _deadstate keyword
argument in python 2.5, this broke code that subclassed Popen to include its
  own poll method.  Fixed my moving _deadstate to an _internal_poll method.

Amaury Forgeot d'Arc 39fd672dfe #3479: unichr(2**32) used to return u'\x00'.
The argument was fetched in a long, but PyUnicode_FromOrdinal takes an int.

Gregory P. Smith 0470bab697 Issue #2620: Overflow checking when allocating or reallocating memory
was not always being done properly in some python types and extension
modules.  PyMem_MALLOC, PyMem_REALLOC, PyMem_NEW and PyMem_RESIZE have
all been updated to perform better checks and places in the code that
would previously leak memory on the error path when such an allocation
failed have been fixed.

Gregory P. Smith b90f4e8730 fix issue3120 - don't truncate handles on 64-bit Windows.
This is still messy, realistically PC/_subprocess.c should never cast pointers
to python numbers and back at all.

I don't have a 64-bit windows build environment because microsoft apparently
thinks that should cost money.  Time to watch the buildbots.  It builds and
passes tests on 32-bit windows.

py3k is already right, thanks to the bytes/str distinction!

Should be backported to 2.5.

Benjamin Peterson 175e4d9663 #3219 repeated keyword arguments aren't allowed in function calls anymore 2008-07-01 19:34:52 +00:00
Amaury Forgeot d'Arc 1f40c8a8d7 #Issue3088 in-progress: Race condition with instances of classes derived from threading.local:
When a thread touches such an object for the first time, a new thread-local __dict__ is created,
and the __init__ method is run.
But a thread switch can occur here; if the other thread touches the same object, it installs another
__dict__; when the first thread resumes, it updates the dictionary of the second...

This is the deep cause of the failures in test_multiprocessing involving "managers" objects.

Also a 2.5 backport candidate.

Brett Cannon dea1b5653f warnings.warn_explicit() did not have the proper TypeErrors in place to prevent
bus errors or SystemError being raised. As a side effect of fixing this, a bad
DECREF that could be triggered when 'message' and 'category' were both None was
fixed.

seen after a "import multiprocessing.reduction"

An instance of a weakref subclass can have attributes.
If such a weakref holds the only strong reference to the object,
deleting the weakref will delete the object. In this case,
the callback must not be called, because the ref object is being deleted!

Thomas Heller fbb9c0bf3c Issue #1798: Add ctypes calling convention that allows safe access of errno.
ctypes maintains thread-local storage that has space for two error
numbers: private copies of the system 'errno' value and, on Windows,
the system error code accessed by the GetLastError() and
SetLastError() api functions.

Foreign functions created with CDLL(..., use_errno=True), when called,
swap the system 'errno' value with the private copy just before the
actual function call, and swapped again immediately afterwards.  The
'use_errno' parameter defaults to False, in this case 'ctypes_errno'
is not touched.

On Windows, foreign functions created with CDLL(...,
use_last_error=True) or WinDLL(..., use_last_error=True) swap the
system LastError value with the ctypes private copy.

The values are also swapped immeditately before and after ctypes
callback functions are called, if the callbacks are constructed using
the new optional use_errno parameter set to True: CFUNCTYPE(...,
use_errno=TRUE) or WINFUNCTYPE(..., use_errno=True).

New ctypes functions are provided to access the ctypes private copies
from Python:

- ctypes.set_errno(value) and ctypes.set_last_error(value) store
  'value' in the private copy and returns the previous value.

- ctypes.get_errno() and ctypes.get_last_error() returns the current
  ctypes private copies value.

Ronald Oussoren 5640ce2f1e MacOS X: Enable 4-way universal builds
This patch adds a new configure argument on OSX:
        --with-universal-archs=[32-bit|64-bit|all]

When used with the --enable-universalsdk option this controls which
CPU architectures are includes in the framework. The default is 32-bit,
meaning i386 and ppc. The most useful alternative is 'all', which includes
all 4 CPU architectures supported by MacOS X (i386, ppc, x86_64 and ppc64).

This includes limited support for the Carbon bindings in 64-bit mode as well,
limited because (a) I haven't done extensive testing and (b) a large portion
of the Carbon API's aren't available in 64-bit mode anyway.

I've also duplicated a feature of Apple's build of python: setting the
environment variable 'ARCHFLAGS' controls the '-arch' flags used for building
extensions using distutils.

solution.

Thomas Heller e70c3378c0 Issue #1798: Add ctypes calling convention that allows safe access to
errno (and LastError, on Windows).

ctypes maintains a module-global, but thread-local, variable that
contains an error number; called 'ctypes_errno' for this discussion.
This variable is a private copy of the systems 'errno' value; the copy
is swapped with the 'errno' variable on several occasions.

Foreign functions created with CDLL(..., use_errno=True), when called,
swap the values just before the actual function call, and swapped
again immediately afterwards.  The 'use_errno' parameter defaults to
False, in this case 'ctypes_errno' is not touched.

The values are also swapped immeditately before and after ctypes
callback functions are called, if the callbacks are constructed using
the new optional use_errno parameter set to True: CFUNCTYPE(..., use_errno=TRUE)
or WINFUNCTYPE(..., use_errno=True).

Two new ctypes functions are provided to access the 'ctypes_errno'
value from Python:

- ctypes.set_errno(value) sets ctypes_errno to 'value', the previous
  ctypes_errno value is returned.

- ctypes.get_errno() returns the current ctypes_errno value.

---

On Windows, the same scheme is implemented for the error value which
is managed by the GetLastError() and SetLastError() windows api calls.

The ctypes functions are 'ctypes.set_last_error(value)' and
'ctypes.get_last_error()', the CDLL and WinDLL optional parameter is
named 'use_last_error', defaults to False.

---

On Windows, TlsSetValue and TlsGetValue calls are used to provide
thread local storage for the variables; ctypes compiled with __GNUC__
uses __thread variables.

The patch also adds acosh, asinh, atanh, log1p and copysign to all platforms. Finally it fixes differences between platforms like different results or exceptions for edge cases. Have fun :)

Brett Cannon e974689038 Re-implement the 'warnings' module in C. This allows for usage of the
'warnings' code in places where it was previously not possible (e.g., the

if the C version of the code (_warnings) is imported over the use of the
Python version in key places.

Trent Nelson e41b0061dd - Issue #2550: The approach used by client/server code for obtaining ports
to listen on in network-oriented tests has been refined in an effort to
  facilitate running multiple instances of the entire regression test suite
  in parallel without issue.  test_support.bind_port() has been fixed such
  that it will always return a unique port -- which wasn't always the case
  with the previous implementation, especially if socket options had been
  set that affected address reuse (i.e. SO_REUSEADDR, SO_REUSEPORT).  The
  new implementation of bind_port() will actually raise an exception if it
  is passed an AF_INET/SOCK_STREAM socket with either the SO_REUSEADDR or
  SO_REUSEPORT socket option set.  Furthermore, if available, bind_port()
  will set the SO_EXCLUSIVEADDRUSE option on the socket it's been passed.
  This currently only applies to Windows.  This option prevents any other
  sockets from binding to the host/port we've bound to, thus removing the
  possibility of the 'non-deterministic' behaviour, as Microsoft puts it,
  that occurs when a second SOCK_STREAM socket binds and accepts to a
  host/port that's already been bound by another socket.  The optional
  preferred port parameter to bind_port() has been removed.  Under no
  circumstances should tests be hard coding ports!

  test_support.find_unused_port() has also been introduced, which will pass
  a temporary socket object to bind_port() in order to obtain an unused port.
  The temporary socket object is then closed and deleted, and the port is
  returned.  This method should only be used for obtaining an unused port
  in order to pass to an external program (i.e. the -accept [port] argument
  to openssl's s_server mode) or as a parameter to a server-oriented class
  that doesn't give you direct access to the underlying socket used.

  Finally, test_support.HOST has been introduced, which should be used for
  the host argument of any relevant socket calls (i.e. bind and connect).

  The following tests were updated to following the new conventions:
    test_socket, test_smtplib, test_asyncore, test_ssl, test_httplib,
    test_poplib, test_ftplib, test_telnetlib, test_socketserver,
    test_asynchat and test_socket_ssl.

  It is now possible for multiple instances of the regression test suite to
  run in parallel without issue.

Amaury Forgeot d'Arc d7a265129c #1733757: the interpreter would hang on shutdown, if the function set by sys.settrace

The correction somewhat improves the code, but it was close.
Many thanks to the "with" construct, which turns python code into C calls.

I wonder if it is not better to sys.settrace(None) just after
running the __main__ module and before finalization.

Jeffrey Yasskin 1b4e45bab9 Allow Gnu gcc's to build python on OSX by removing -Wno-long-double,
-no-cpp-precomp, and -mno-fused-madd from configure.
 * r22183 added -no-cpp-precomp, which
   http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2005-12/msg00368.html claims hasn't been
   needed since gcc-3.1.
 * r25607 added -Wno-long-double to avoid a warning in
   Include/objimpl.h (issue 525481). The long double is still there,
   but OSX 10.4's gcc no longer warns about it.
 * r33666 fixed issue 775892 on OSX 10.3 by adding -mno-fused-madd,
   which changed the sign of some float 0s. Tim Peters said it wasn't
   a real issue anyway, and it no longer causes test failures.
Fixes issue #1779871.

Neal Norwitz 400aedacc0 Add a warning for code like:
assert (0, 'message')

An empty tuple does not create a warning.  While questionable usage:
  assert (), 'message'

should not display a warning.  Tested manually.
The warning message could be improved.  Feel free to update it.
