email package's Parser to handle the three common line endings.
Certain protocols such as IMAP define CRLF line endings and it doesn't
make sense for the client app to have to normalize the line endings
before handing it message off to the Parser.
_parsebody(): Be more flexible in the matching of line endings for
finding the MIME separators. Accept any of \r, \n and \r\n. Note
that we do /not/ change the line endings in the payloads, we just
accept any of those three around MIME boundaries.
single byte character sets. Also fixed a semantic problem with the
constructor's default arguments. Specifically,
__init__(): Change the maxlinelen argument default to None instead of
MAXLINELEN. The semantics should have been (and now are) that if
maxlinelen is given it is always honored. If it isn't given, but
header_name is given, then the maximum line length is calculated. If
neither are given then the default 76 characters is used.
_split(): If the character set is a single byte character set then we
can split the line at the maxlinelen because we know that encoding the
header won't increase its length. If the charset isn't a single byte
charset then we use the quicker divide-and-conquer line splitting
algorithm as before.
for the email package. The former is now just a shell project that
has some extra files for packaging for independent use (e.g. setup.py
and README).
Added a compatibility layer so that the same API can be used in Python
2.1 and 2.2/2.3 with the major differences shuffled off into helper
modules (_compat21.py and _compat22.py).
Also bumped the package version number to 2.0.3 for some fixes to be
checked in momentarily.
This patch complies with the following request found
near the top of configure.in:
# This is for stuff that absolutely must end up in pyconfig.h.
# Please use pyport.h instead, if possible.
I tested this patch under Cygwin, Win32, and Red
Hat Linux. Python built and ran successfully on
each of these platforms.
This patch removes a vestige part of the Cygwin make rules
that didn't quite make it over during the flattening of the
Makefiles. In its current form, it creates a def file but
incorrectly calls it libpython$(VERSION).dll.a which
immediately gets overwritten by the next command.
Obviously, this is useless. It appears, it was useless
in the old nested Makefile structure too. :,)
Scot Stevenson. Could be a bug fix candidate, but probably doesn't
matter much unless a certain blue-nosed cat suddenly becomes corporeal
and starts emailing some stmp.py (sic) fronted mailer.
returned a proxy for __class__ whose __bases__ was also a proxy. The
merge_class_dict() helper for dir() assumed incorrectly that __bases__
would always be a tuple and used the in-line tuple API on the proxy.
I will backport this to 2.2 as well.
test if 'callable' has not been supplied is to test for None instead of
False. The previous correction to 'if callable()' was wrong because an unusable
callback would be ignored rather than raising an exception.
