Amaury Forgeot d'Arc ce32eb7406 #6416: Fix compilation of the select module on Windows, as well as test_subprocess: 
PIPE_BUF is not defined on Windows, and probably has no meaning there.

Anyway the subprocess module uses another way to perform non-blocking reads (with a thread)

Jeffrey Yasskin 655d835415 Issue #6042: 
lnotab-based tracing is very complicated and isn't documented very well.  There
were at least 3 comment blocks purporting to document co_lnotab, and none did a
very good job. This patch unifies them into Objects/lnotab_notes.txt which
tries to completely capture the current state of affairs.

I also discovered that we've attached 2 layers of patches to the basic tracing
scheme. The first layer avoids jumping to instructions that don't start a line,
to avoid problems in if statements and while loops.  The second layer
discovered that jumps backward do need to trace at instructions that don't
start a line, so it added extra lnotab entries for 'while' and 'for' loops, and
added a special case for backward jumps within the same line. I replaced these
patches by just treating forward and backward jumps differently.

Gregory P. Smith 1d499265e0 Adds the ipaddr module to the standard library. Issue #3959. 
Based off of subversion r69 from http://code.google.com/p/ipaddr-py/

This code is 2to3 safe, I'll merge it into py3k later this afternoon.

R. David Murray 636b23a96f Various small fixups to the multiprocessing docs, mostly fixing and 
enabling doctests that Sphinx can run, and fixing and disabling tests that
Sphinx can't run.  I hand checked every test not now marked as a doctest,
and all except the two that have open bug reports against them now work,
at least on Linux/trunk. (I did not look at the last example at all since
there was already an open bug).  I did not read the whole document with
an editor's eye, but I did fix a few things I noticed while working on
the tests.

R. David Murray ec047e0725 Make sys.xxx variable references into links, note that print_last only 
works when an exception gets to the interactive prompt, and update the
examples after testing.  The last one is now a valid Sphinx doctest,
but of the preceding two one can't be made a doctest and the other one
I'm postponing to 3.x because sphinx handles doctests as Unicode strings
and that makes the 2.x output confusing.

Jesse Noller 5053fbbb38 Issue 3551: Raise ValueError if the size causes ERROR_NO_SYSTEM_RESOURCES 2009-04-02 04:22:09 +00:00
Michael Foord 345b2fe21e Better exception messages for unittest assert methods. 
- unittest.assertNotEqual() now uses the inequality operator (!=) instead
  of the equality operator.

- Default assertTrue and assertFalse messages are now useful.

- TestCase has a longMessage attribute. This defaults to False, but if set to True
  useful error messages are shown in addition to explicit messages passed to assert methods.

Gregory P. Smith 2839985c7e The unittest.TestCase.assertEqual() now displays the differences in lists, 
tuples, dicts and sets on failure.

Many new handy type and comparison specific assert* methods have been added
that fail with error messages actually useful for debugging.  Contributed in
by Google and completed with help from mfoord and GvR at PyCon 2009 sprints.

Barry Warsaw dbf95a3643 A fix for issue 1974, inspired by the patch from Andi Albrecht (aalbrecht), 
though with some changes by me.  This patch should not be back ported or
forward ported.  It's a bit too risky for 2.6 and 3.x does things fairly
differently.
