We add some new rules that are required for preserving internal
invariants of types.
1. If type (or a subclass of type) appears in bases, it must appear
before any non-type bases. If a non-type base (like a regular
new-style class) occurred first, it could trick type into
allocating the new class an __dict__ which must be impossible.
2. There are several checks that are made of bases when creating a
type. Those checks are now repeated when assigning to __bases__.
We also add the restriction that assignment to __bases__ may not
change the metaclass of the type.
Add new tests for these cases and for a few other oddball errors that
were no previously tested. Remove a crasher test that was fixed.
Also some internal refactoring: Extract the code to find the most
derived metaclass of a type and its bases. It is now needed in two
places. Rewrite the TypeError checks in test_descr to use doctest.
The tests now clearly show what exception they expect to see.
Fixes bug 1569356, but at the cost of a minor incompatibility in
locals(). Add test that verifies that the class namespace is not
polluted. Also clarify the behavior in the library docs.
Along the way, cleaned up the dict_to_map and map_to_dict
implementations and added some comments that explain what they do.
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.
mouse and cursor selection in ACWindow implemented; double Tab inserts current
selection and closes ACW (similar to double-click and Return); scroll wheel now
works in ACW. Added AutoComplete instructions to IDLE Help.
Suggested solution by Christos Georgiou, Bug 791968.
2. Clean up tests, were not failing when they should have been.
4. Remove some camelcase and an unneeded try/except block.
The next step of PEP 352 (for 2.6) causes raising a string exception to trigger
a TypeError. Trying to catch a string exception raises a DeprecationWarning.
References to string exceptions has been removed from the docs since they are
now just an error.
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).
doesn't support the same funcationality as on Unix. I'm not sure if
this fix is the best (or if it will even work)--it's a test to see
if the buildbots start passing again.
It might be better to not even run this test if it's windows (or non-posix).
merged into the 2.5 maintenance branch:
- self->statement was not checked while fetching data, which could
lead to crashes if you used the pysqlite API in unusual ways.
Closing the cursor and continuing to fetch data was enough.
- Converters are stored in a converters dictionary. The converter name
is uppercased first. The old upper-casing algorithm was wrong and
was replaced by a simple call to the Python string's upper() method
instead.
-Applied patch by Glyph Lefkowitz that fixes the problem with
subsequent SQLITE_SCHEMA errors.
- Improvement to the row type: rows can now be iterated over and have a keys()
method. This improves compatibility with both tuple and dict a lot.
- A bugfix for the subsecond resolution in timestamps.
- Corrected the way the flags PARSE_DECLTYPES and PARSE_COLNAMES are
checked for. Now they work as documented.
- gcc on Linux sucks. It exports all symbols by default in shared
libraries, so if symbols are not unique it can lead to problems with
symbol lookup. pysqlite used to crash under Apache when mod_cache
was enabled because both modules had the symbol cache_init. I fixed
this by applying the prefix pysqlite_ almost everywhere. Sigh.
Change the cache for _sys_version() to take the parameter into account.
Add support for parsing the IronPython 1.0.1 sys.version value - even
though it still returns '1.0.0'; the version string no longer includes
the patch level.
Add new API linux_distribution() which supports reading the full distribution
name and also knows how to parse LSB-style release files.
Redirect the old dist() API to the new API (using the short distribution name
taken from the release file filename).
Add branch and revision to _sys_version().
Add work-around for Cygwin to libc_ver().
Add support for IronPython (thanks for Anthony Baxter) and make
Jython support more robust.
