Fred Drake eab5f8a43d Remove unused variable. 2002-07-09 03:24:32 +00:00
Tim Peters 7c321a80f9 The Py_REF_DEBUG/COUNT_ALLOCS/Py_TRACE_REFS macro minefield: added 
more trivial lexical helper macros so that uses of these guys expand
to nothing at all when they're not enabled.  This should help sub-
standard compilers that can't do a good job of optimizing away the
previous "(void)0" expressions.

Py_DECREF:  There's only one definition of this now.  Yay!  That
was that last one in the family defined multiple times in an #ifdef
maze.

Py_FatalError():  Changed the char* signature to const char*.

_Py_NegativeRefcount():  New helper function for the Py_REF_DEBUG
expansion of Py_DECREF.  Calling an external function cuts down on
the volume of generated code.  The previous inline expansion of abort()
didn't work as intended on Windows (the program often kept going, and
the error msg scrolled off the screen unseen).  _Py_NegativeRefcount
calls Py_FatalError instead, which captures our best knowledge of
how to abort effectively across platforms.

Fred Drake 82bac5952f Fixed a typo and updated information about using the Times fonts when 
formatting PostScript documents.  Reported by Dave Kuhlman.
 2002-07-08 14:10:41 +00:00
Fred Drake 388fba8504 Added font-setting line (and associated comments) to the A4 version of 
this file; the lack of this was causing the A4 version of tutorial to
use really bad Type 3 fonts instead of Type 1 fonts, which also
bloated the file size substantially.

I thought there was a SourceForge bug for this, but couldn't find it.

Greg Ward 285f4a7db7 Don't list all the keyword args to the TextWrapper constructor in the 
classdesc -- just use "..." with prose explaining the correspondence
between keyword args and instance attributes.

Document 'width' along with the other instance attributes.

Describe default values consistently.

Typo fixes.

Fred Drake 074712112b Played contortionist games with the argument_list production so it 
might be easier to understand.
This relates to SF bug #493243, which will be closed.
 2002-06-18 18:42:01 +00:00
Fred Drake 4837fa3a54 \productioncont: Replace leading spaces with   so that it's 
possible to control the indentation of continuation lines.

cfuncline_helper():  Only mark the argument names are <var>, not the
    whole argument list.  This leaves the argument types in the same
    font as the return type.  Based on a casual suggestion from
    Guido.
 2002-06-18 18:30:28 +00:00

Fred Drake 6fc22f6c3d Ensure \verbatiminput always uses a unique filename for each input file in 
the "Download as text" link.  Previously, it could map multiple source files

Closes SF bug #568577.
 2002-06-13 17:54:06 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 11ba094957 Major overhaul of timeout sockets: 
- setblocking(0) and settimeout(0) are now equivalent, and ditto for
  setblocking(1) and settimeout(None).

- Don't raise an exception from internal_select(); let the final call
  report the error (this means you will get an EAGAIN error instead of
  an ETIMEDOUT error -- I don't care).

- Move the select to inside the Py_{BEGIN,END}_ALLOW_THREADS brackets,
  so other theads can run (this was a bug in the original code).

- Redid the retry logic in connect() and connect_ex() to avoid masking
  errors.  This probably doesn't work for Windows yet; I'll fix that
  next.  It may also fail on other platforms, depending on what
  retrying a connect does; I need help with this.

- Get rid of the retry logic in accept().  I don't think it was needed
  at all.  But I may be wrong.
 2002-06-13 15:07:44 +00:00

Michael W. Hudson 5efaf7eac8 This is my nearly two year old patch 
[ 400998 ] experimental support for extended slicing on lists

somewhat spruced up and better tested than it was when I wrote it.

Includes docs & tests.  The whatsnew section needs expanding, and arrays
should support extended slices -- later.
 2002-06-11 10:55:12 +00:00
Fred Drake 55ad7f84a4 Completely revise markup for the list of list methods; the new markup matches 
the semantics and presentation used in the library reference.
Added an explanation of the use of [...] to denote optional arguments, since
this is the only use of this in a signature line.
Closes SF bug #567127.

Fred Drake 6c6d662760 Fix some markup errors and adjust wording slightly. 2002-06-06 21:57:48 +00:00
Guido van Rossum be946bfea7 SF patch 555085 (timeout socket implementation) by Michael Gilfix. 
I've made considerable changes to Michael's code, specifically to use
the select() system call directly and to store the timeout as a C
double instead of a Python object; internally, -1.0 (or anything
negative) represents the None from the API.

I'm not 100% sure that all corner cases are covered correctly, so
please keep an eye on this.  Next I'm going to try it Windows before
Tim complains.

No way is this a bugfix candidate. :-)
 2002-06-06 21:51:01 +00:00
Martin v. Löwis 446a25fa3c Patch 473512: add GNU style scanning as gnu_getopt. 2002-06-06 10:58:36 +00:00
Fred Drake 293dd4b77b Fix up Guido's markup. 2002-06-04 16:25:57 +00:00
Walter Dörwald 474458da48 Add constants BOM_UTF8, BOM_UTF16, BOM_UTF16_LE, BOM_UTF16_BE, 
BOM_UTF32, BOM_UTF32_LE and BOM_UTF32_BE that represent the Byte
Order Mark in UTF-8, UTF-16 and UTF-32 encodings for little and
big endian systems.

The old names BOM32_* and BOM64_* were off by a factor of 2.

This closes SF bug http://www.python.org/sf/555360
 2002-06-04 15:16:29 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 92cf95f45b Addressed SF bug 421973 (finally). 
Rewrote the subsection on coercion rules (and made it a proper
subsection, with a label).  The new section is much less precise,
because precise rules would be too hard to give (== I don't know what
they are any more :-).  OTOH, the new section gives much more
up-to-date information.

Also noted that __coerce__ may return NotImplemented, with the same
meaning as None.

I beg Fred forgiveness: my use of \code{} is probably naive.  Please
fix this and other markup nits.  An index entry would be nice.

This could be a 2.2 bugfix candidate, if we bother about old docs
(Fred?)
 2002-06-03 19:06:41 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 59b2a74c75 SF bug 533625 (Armin Rigo). rexec: potential security hole 
If a rexec instance allows writing in the current directory (a common
thing to do), there's a way to execute bogus bytecode.  Fix this by
not allowing imports from .pyc files (in a way that allows a site to
configure things so that .pyc files *are* allowed, if writing is not
allowed).
