Fred Drake 7898ccdd63 Improve compatibility with more versions of LaTeX2HTML and more LaTeX
markup.  Not currently needed, but easier to save this now than to
have to figure it out when we do.

Gregory P. Smith 84261d2f13 Fix a typo/cut-n-paste error in DBCursor.join_item so that it doesn't
return a tuple.  (this also implies that nobody uses this method; the
bug has been here for a long time)

  setting it.

Jack Jansen dd614fdc51 Fixed lots of minor issues found by Edward Moy: incorrect version
strings, non-standard naming of things in bundles, etc.
2003-07-04 13:06:14 +00:00
Jack Jansen 66b8483247 Fixed two bugs in MacOSX framework handling spotted by Edward Moy:
- In the top level Makefile, the argument to -install_name should be
  prepended with /System/Library/Frameworks/, so it is an absolute path.
- In the top level Makefile, because of 2), RUNSHARED needs to be set to
  DYLD_FRAMEWORK_PATH=<path to local framework> and $(RUNSHARED) prepended
  to the $(MAKE) lines in the frameworkinstallmaclib and
  frameworkinstallapps targets.

Tim Peters 2e7e7df969 An Anonymous Coward on c.l.py posted a little program with bizarre
behavior, creating many threads very quickly.  A long debugging session
revealed that the Windows implementation of PyThread_start_new_thread()
was choked with "laziness" errors:

1. It checked MS _beginthread() for a failure return, but when that
   happened it returned heap trash as the function result, instead of
   an id of -1 (the proper error-return value).

2. It didn't consider that the Win32 CreateSemaphore() can fail.

3. When creating a great many threads very quickly, it's quite possible
   that any particular bootstrap call can take virtually any amount of
   time to return.  But the code waited for a maximum of 5 seconds, and
   didn't check to see whether the semaphore it was waiting for got
   signaled.  If it in fact timed out, the function could again return
   heap trash as the function result.  This is actually what confused
   the test program, as the heap trash usually turned out to be 0, and
   then multiple threads all got id 0 simultaneously, confusing the
   hell out of threading.py's _active dict (mapping id to thread
   object).  A variety of baffling behaviors followed from that.

WRT #1 and #2, error returns are checked now, and "thread.error: can't
start new thread" gets raised now if a new thread (or new semaphore)
can't be created.  WRT #3, we now wait for the semaphore without a
timeout.

Also removed useless local vrbls, folded long lines, and changed callobj
to a stack auto (it was going thru malloc/free instead, for no discernible
reason).

Bugfix candidate.

Brett Cannon cde2200ff2 Fixes bug of timezone value being left as -1 when ``time.tzname[0] ==
time.tzname[1] and not time.daylight`` is true when it should only when
time.daylight is true.  Tests are also fixed.

Closes bug #763047 and its cohort #763052.

Jack Jansen ebab26a709 Skip noticed that the document talks about "setting PythonLauncher as the
default application" but doesn't give a clue on how to do this. Refer to
Apple Help.

Jack Jansen 42fbc6961e Tooltip for tab/space consistency check was the wrong way around. Spotted
by Skip.

Skip Montanaro eec26f982a Correct documentation of check interval - it's 100 by default, not 10 any
longer.  Pointed out by Alex Martelli.

Just van Rossum 74902508dc Addendum to #764548: restore 2.1 compatibility. 2003-07-02 21:37:16 +00:00
Just van Rossum 12723bacea Fix and test for bug #764548:
Use isinstance() instead of comparing types directly, to enable
subclasses of str and unicode to be used as patterns.
Blessed by /F.

Skip Montanaro 5e4e39f12a Note that csv files (when they are actual files) must be opened in 'b'inary
mode.  Note that the only restriction on the csvfile passed to writer
objects is that it have a write method.

Fred Drake 6675881aab There's a better way to deal with the "comment" environment; I found
this in SF patch #732174.

Fred Drake 629dd99802 Make the "install schema" tables follow the same table style we use
elsewhere (lines between columns).

Fred Drake 89de74ee94 The Macintosh Modules Reference now formats to GNU info without errors
(which is not to say it's right), so re-enable it.

Documenting Python and Installing Python Modules still have problems
when converting to GNU info, so we'll continue to leave them out for
now.

Fred Drake 3b09558710 Fill out the set of macros and environments supported somewhat.
Some of this is still pretty iffy.

Andrew MacIntyre 348c261fe6 On those systems lacking the AFMT_S16_NE symbol, the test was failing
because it was still looking in the ossaudiodev module namespace for
this symbol.

As the symbol has already been rebound as a global, use that instead.
2003-07-02 14:05:08 +00:00
Andrew MacIntyre abccf41a7d FreeBSD 5.x has moved some library routines and typedefs outside the
scope of the _XOPEN_SOURCE and _POSIX_C_SOURCE symbols, including:
- getloadavg()
- typedefs for u_int, u_long, u_char, u_short, ushort & uint

These are now all defined under the control of a __BSD_VISIBLE symbol.

The lack of the typedefs causes several extension modules to build
incorrectly or not at all, and is the cause of failures reported for
test_socket and test_tempfile on this platform
(see python-dev: 29/6/03, pieterb@gewis.nl, "Running tests on freebsd5")

This change does not appear to be needed in the 2.2 branch.

Fred Drake 1ec0bdf899 The datetime C API really isn't usable outside the datetime module
implementation, so remove this decoy (it break formatting of the GNU
info version of the docs).

Fred Drake 2884d6de15 Fix a variety of small markup nits. 2003-07-02 12:27:43 +00:00
Jack Jansen e2ff8be761 Moved the IDE tutorial to a directory with a shorter name. The long
name was giving problems with some tar implementations.

Neal Norwitz 3c0f2c91ad Fix SF bug #763637, 2.3b2 unpack tuple of wrong size in after_cancel
Tk 8.4 may return different values than 8.3.  This fix should handle
either version.

Just van Rossum 94af32e244 - replaced a couple of asserts with proper exceptions
