Guido van Rossum 8a2d216047 Removed faqmain.py -- it was an earlier implementation and no
longer relevant.

Guido van Rossum e2ed9df645 Fixed bugs regarding lines starting with '.' (both receiving and sending).
Added a minimal test function.

Guido van Rossum e20aef574a Ignore whitespace between formats (not internal to a count+format). 1997-08-26 20:39:54 +00:00
Guido van Rossum ab0abdcef8 Explicitly close the socket and temp file in URLopener.retrieve(), so
that multiple retrievals using the same connection will work.

This leaves open the more general problem that after
    f = urlopen("ftp://...")
f must be closed before another retrieval from the same host should be
attempted.

Barry Warsaw 36b8f945e7 PyErr_Print(): Use PyErr_GivenExceptionMatches() instead of pointer
compares to test for SystemExit and SyntaxError.

Jack Jansen 26726fe523 Replaced by ReadMe 1997-08-26 13:27:22 +00:00
Jack Jansen 83cab722f9 Adapted from ReadMeOrSuffer for the new installer 1997-08-26 13:25:06 +00:00
Jack Jansen 0c96887d35 Handle systemclicks ourselves, in stead of passing them to Sioux. This
fixes (or masks?) a bug with Python becoming unreactive during
time.sleep() if you have already switched applications before.

Guido van Rossum 0cdb887676 Completed first draft. 1997-08-26 00:08:51 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 910105515e unpack_sequence(): In finally clause, watch out for Py_DECREF
evaluating its arguments twice.

Barry Warsaw 09f9547393 regression test for new sequence unpacking semantics 1997-08-25 22:17:45 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 9525df03bf Output for sequence unpacking test 1997-08-25 22:15:22 +00:00
Barry Warsaw e42b18f9d1 eval_code2(): collapsed the implementations of UNPACK_TUPLE and
UNPACK_LIST byte codes and added a third code path that allows
generalized sequence unpacking.  Now both syntaxes:

    a, b, c = seq
    [a, b, c] = seq

can be used to unpack any sequence with the exact right number of
items.

unpack_sequence(): out-lined implementation of generalized sequence
unpacking.  tuple and list unpacking are still inlined.

Guido van Rossum 1fb071cc64 Checkpoint. 1997-08-25 21:36:44 +00:00
Guido van Rossum b2173c3146 Allow assignments to instance.__dict__ and instance.__class__. The
former lets you give an instance a set of new instance vars.  The
latter lets you give it a new class.  Both are typechecked and
disallowed in restricted mode.

For classes, the check for read-only special attributes is tightened
so that only assignments to __dict__, __bases__, __name__,
__getattr__, __setattr__, and __delattr__ (these could be made to work
as well, but I don't know if that's useful -- let's see first whether
mucking with instances will help).

Guido van Rossum a27d112213 Rename roundup() to roundupsize(), as there's a macro roundup() in the
sys/types.h header on many systems that may get pulled in (through
WANT_SIGFPE_HANDLER which pulls in signal.h).
1997-08-25 18:36:23 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 81e479a11f Removed some colons that shouldn't be there (probably leftovers from
docstring conversion).

Guido van Rossum 27e4aa3168 Arbitrary point checkpoint commit. Take no notice. 1997-08-25 15:37:59 +00:00

Barry Warsaw 558f66ff53 Added a few more tests of exception class raising 1997-08-22 21:28:05 +00:00
Barry Warsaw ac405ce3f9 generated output for new tests 1997-08-22 21:27:40 +00:00
Barry Warsaw d543077aa6 Added tests of the new builtin functions issubclass() and isinstance() 1997-08-22 21:27:03 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 4249f54b28 cmp_exception gets promoted (essentially) to the C API function
PyErr_GivenExceptionMatches().

set_exc_info(): make sure to normalize exceptions.

do_raise(): Use PyErr_NormalizeException() if type is a class.

loop_subscript(): Use PyErr_ExceptionMatches() instead of raw pointer
compare for PyExc_IndexError.
1997-08-22 21:26:19 +00:00
Barry Warsaw c0dc92af7d Three new C API functions:
- int PyErr_GivenExceptionMatches(obj1, obj2)

  Returns 1 if obj1 and obj2 are the same object, or if obj1 is an
  instance of type obj2, or of a class derived from obj2

- int PyErr_ExceptionMatches(obj)

  Higher level wrapper around PyErr_GivenExceptionMatches() which uses
  PyErr_Occurred() as obj1.  This will be the more commonly called
  function.

- void PyErr_NormalizeException(typeptr, valptr, tbptr)

  Normalizes exceptions, and places the normalized values in the
  arguments.  If type is not a class, this does nothing.  If type is a
  class, then it makes sure that value is an instance of the class by:

  1. if instance is of the type, or a class derived from type, it does
     nothing.

  2. otherwise it instantiates the class, using the value as an
     argument.  If value is None, it uses an empty arg tuple, and if
     the value is a tuple, it uses just that.
1997-08-22 21:22:58 +00:00
Barry Warsaw cde8b1ba0c Two new built-in functions: issubclass() and isinstance(). Both take
classes as their second arguments.  The former takes a class as the
first argument and returns true iff first is second, or is a subclass
of second.

The latter takes any object as the first argument and returns true iff
first is an instance of the second, or any subclass of second.

Also, change all occurances of pointer compares against
PyExc_IndexError with PyErr_ExceptionMatches() calls.

Guido van Rossum 21c5c8fa5b Correct off-by-two-pixels error. 1997-08-22 20:56:07 +00:00
Guido van Rossum d14c06819e Add unsupported variable EXE which can be set to .exe on systems where
the executable must have that suffix.  Note that there is no
corresponding support in the top-level Makefile because I'm not sure
that the install targets there make sense under these circumstances.
1997-08-22 20:53:47 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 1171ee6aaf Added configuration tests for presence of alarm(), pause(), and getpwent() 1997-08-22 20:42:00 +00:00
Fred Drake 5de31fc094 Oops, don't suppress echo of the rm command in l2hclean! 1997-08-22 18:20:33 +00:00
Fred Drake 03ff6f7474 Simplify LaTeX2HTML targets && support re-use of output directories (which
saves re-generation of images).

Add l2hclean target.
1997-08-22 18:18:54 +00:00
Guido van Rossum cd649654d7 Reverse the search order for the Don Beaudry hook so that the first
class wins.  Makes more sense.
1997-08-22 16:56:16 +00:00
Fred Drake 289f97d0ea Changed description of SchedParams() in the following way:
\bar{Besocial} --> \var{besocial}
	     ^--- note case ----^

The fixed version matches the signature.  Changed "\bar{Besocial} gives ..."
to "The \var{besocial} flag gives ..." to keep from starting the sentence
with a lowercase token.

(The \bar{} --> \var{} change was required to keep LaTeX happy.)
1997-08-22 13:51:31 +00:00
Fred Drake 2999607e59 Added missing "\end{funcdesc}" after FindFolder documentation. 1997-08-22 13:45:13 +00:00
Guido van Rossum e3c0d5eb34 Added new Py_IsInitalized() API function to test the 'initialized' flag. 1997-08-22 04:20:13 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 779133c707 Removed JF's dollar-Log-dollar RCS turd that caused compilation to
crash due to GvR's last check in message :-).  Will try to convince JF
to remove all this evilness.

Guido van Rossum d7a7100c99 Remove redundant decl for PyOS_InputHook. 1997-08-21 17:26:04 +00:00
Guido van Rossum ab589b945e Completely disable the declarations for malloc() and friends. Use
#ifdef though, so if you still need these for a really backwards
compiler you know what to do.

Guido van Rossum c6ef204830 Added /**/ around #end tags 1997-08-21 02:30:45 +00:00
Guido van Rossum bae6523a75 Must remove conflicting files from archive
*before* adding signalmodule.o, because some ar programs
are too smart for us...
