Mark Dickinson fe536f53ea Issue 2635: fix bug in the fix_sentence_endings option to textwrap.fill. 2008-04-25 16:59:09 +00:00
Mark Dickinson 6513466270 Issue #1496032. Add -mieee to BASECFLAGS on alpha, when gcc is
the compiler.  This should(?) help to fix failures in test_math
and test_cmath on Linux/alpha.

Also add configure message reporting the result of uname -m, as
a debugging aid.

Christian Heimes e74c8f2879 Added kill, terminate and send_signal to subprocess.Popen
The bits and pieces for the Windows side were already in place. The POSIX side is trivial (as usual) and uses os.kill().

Christian Heimes 6f34109384 I finally got the time to update and merge Mark's and my trunk-math branch. The patch is collaborated work of Mark Dickinson and me. It was mostly done a few months ago. The patch fixes a lot of loose ends and edge cases related to operations with NaN, INF, very small values and complex math.
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 :)

2008-04-14 16:10:07 +00:00
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
parser). It could also potentially lead to a speed-up in interpreter start-up
if the C version of the code (_warnings) is imported over the use of the
Python version in key places.

Closes issue #1631171.

Christian Heimes 7a98d2730c Applied patch #2617 from Frank Wierzbicki wit some extras from me

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.

Gregory P. Smith aa63d0d4af Make file objects as thread safe as the underlying libc FILE* implementation.
close() will now raise an IOError if any operations on the file object
are currently in progress in other threads.

Most code was written by Antoine Pitrou (pitrou).  Additional testing,
documentation and test suite cleanup done by me (gregory.p.smith).

Fixes issue 815646 and 595601 (as well as many other bugs and
references to this problem dating back to the dawn of Python).

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

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.

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

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.

  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.
