 2010-04-03 08:40:16 +00:00
Brian Curtin e5aa886b44 Implement #1220212. Add os.kill support for Windows. 
os.kill takes one of two newly added signals, CTRL_C_EVENT and
CTRL_BREAK_EVENT, or any integer value. The events are a special case
which work with subprocess console applications which implement a
special console control handler. Any other value but those two will
cause os.kill to use TerminateProcess, outright killing the process.

This change adds win_console_handler.py, which is a script to implement
SetConsoleCtrlHandler and applicable handler function, using ctypes.

subprocess also gets another attribute which is a necessary flag to
creationflags in Popen in order to send the CTRL events.

Brian Curtin e33fa887d3 Implement #7347. Add CreateKeyEx, DeleteKeyEx, and update _winreg tests. 
*ReflectionKey functions used to not be documented or tested, but they are
now sufficiently documented and tested on platforms where they apply.
Additionally, fixed a bug in QueryReflectionKey which was returning an
incorrect value.

All tests pass from XP through Windows 7, on 32 and 64-bit platforms.

Steven Bethard e9330e7941 Initial commit of the argparse library, based on argparse 1.1. 
Docs still need some updating to make getopt and optparse match the wording promised in the PEP.
There are also probably a number of :class:ArgumentParser etc. links that could be added to the argparse documentation.

Ronald Oussoren ab3f5cbabd A number of APIs in macostools cannot work in 64-bit mode because they 
use Carbon APIs that aren't available there.

This patch disables tests for the affected entrypoints in macostools and
mentions this in the documentation.

In theory it is possible to replace the implementation by code that does
work in 64-bit mode, but that would require further updates to the Carbon
wrappers because the modern APIs aren't wrapped properly.

Brett Cannon 6fdd3dcb6a DeprecationWarning is now silent by default. 
This was originally suggested by Guido, discussed on the stdlib-sig mailing
list, and given the OK by Guido directly to me. What this change essentially
means is that Python has taken a policy of silencing warnings that are only
of interest to developers by default. This should prevent users from seeing
warnings which are triggered by an application being run against a new
interpreter before the app developer has a chance to update their code.

Closes issue #7319. Thanks to Antoine Pitrou, Ezio Melotti, and Brian Curtin
for helping with the issue.
