run immediately after test_file. At least 8 buildbot
boxes passed since the underlying problem got fixed,
and they all failed before the fix, so there's no point
to this anymore.
test clean up after itself appears to fix the test failures
when test_optparse follows test_file.
test_main(): Get rid of TESTFN no matter what. That's
also enough to fix the mystery failures. Doesn't hurt
to fix them twice :-)
Since test_file is implicated in mysterious test failures
when followed by test_optparse, if I had any brains I'd
look at the checkin that last changed test_file ;-)
the char buffer was requested. Now it actually returns the char buffer if
available or raises a TypeError if it isn't (as is raised for the other buffer
types if they are not present but requested).
Not a backport candidate since it does change semantics of the buffer object
(although it could be argued this is enough of a bug to bother backporting).
Give a consistent behavior for comparison and hashing of method objects
(both user- and built-in methods). Now compares the 'self' recursively.
The hash was already asking for the hash of 'self'.
aborts the db transaction safely when a modifier callback fails.
Fixes SF python patch/bug #1408584.
Also cleans up the bsddb.dbtables docstrings since thats the only
documentation that exists for that unadvertised module. (people
really should really just use sqlite3)
sys.exutable that isn't usuable on an #!-line. That results in generated
applets that don't actually work. Work around this problem by resetting
sys.executable.
* argvemulator.py didn't work on intel macs. This patch fixes this
(bug #1491468)
from ?iga Seilnacht (sorry about the name, but Firefox
on my box can't display the first character of the name --
the SF "Unix name" is zseil).
This appears to cure the oddball intermittent leaks across
runs when running test_exceptions under -R. I'm not sure
why, but I'm too sleepy to care ;-)
The thrust of the SF patch was to remove randomness in the
pickle protocol used. I changed the patch to use
range(pickle.HIGHEST_PROTOCOL + 1), to try both pickle and
cPickle, and randomly mucked with other test lines to put
statements on their own lines.
Not a bugfix candidate (this is fiddling new-in-2.5 code).
Found them using::
find . -name '*.py' | while read i ; do grep 'def[^(]*( ' $i /dev/null ; done
find . -name '*.py' | while read i ; do grep ' ):' $i /dev/null ; done
(I was doing this all over my own code anyway, because I'd been using spaces in
all defs, so I thought I'd make a run on the Python code as well. If you need
to do such fixes in your own code, you can use xx-rename or parenregu.el within
emacs.)
structmember typecode for Py_ssize_t fields. This should fix some of
the errors on the PPC64 debian machine (64-bit, big endian).
Assigning to readonly fields now raises AttributeError instead of
TypeError, so the testcase has to be changed as well.
string_reverse(): Simplify.
assertRaises(): Raise TestFailed on failure.
test_unpack_from(), test_pack_into(), test_pack_into_fn(): never
use `assert` to test for an expected result (it doesn't test anything
when Python is run with -O).
Move the long-winded, multiply-nested -R support out
of runtest() and into some module-level helper functions.
This makes runtest() and the -R code easier to follow.
That in turn allowed seeing some opportunities for code
simplification, and made it obvious that reglog.txt
never got closed.
in BerkeleyDB >= 4.2 it tried to construct a list out of an uninitialized
char **log_list.
feature: export the DB_ARCH_REMOVE flag by name in the module on BerkeleyDB >= 4.2.
46640 Patch #1454481: Make thread stack size runtime tunable.
46647 Markup fix
The first is causing many buildbots to fail test runs, and there
are multiple causes with seemingly no immediate prospects for
repairing them. See python-dev discussion.
Note that a branch can (and should) be created for resolving these
problems, like
svn copy svn+ssh://svn.python.org/python/trunk -r46640 svn+ssh://svn.python.org/python/branches/NEW_BRANCH
followed by merging rev 46647 to the new branch.
- Following Guido's comments, renamed
* pack_to -> pack_into
* recv_buf -> recv_into
* recvfrom_buf -> recvfrom_into
- Made fixes to _struct.c according to Neal Norwitz comments on the checkins
list.
- Converted some ints into the appropriate -- I hope -- ssize_t and size_t.
the output required more than one line. "Small" dicts got
displayed in seemingly random order (the hash-induced order
produced by dict.__repr__). None of this was documented.
Now pprint functions always sort dicts by key, and the docs
promise it.
This was proposed and agreed to during the PyCon 2006 core
sprint -- I just didn't have time for it before now.
but disabled then because str and unicode strings gave different
results. The implementations were repaired later during the
sprint, but the new test remained disabled.
SimpleXMLRPCServer and DocXMLRPCServer don't look at
the path of the HTTP request at all; you can POST or
GET from / or /RPC2 or /blahblahblah with the same results.
Security scanners that look for /cgi-bin/phf will therefore report
lots of vulnerabilities.
Fix: add a .rpc_paths attribute to the SimpleXMLRPCServer class,
and report a 404 error if the path isn't on the allowed list.
Possibly-controversial aspect of this change: the default makes only
'/' and '/RPC2' legal. Maybe this will break people's applications
(though I doubt it). We could just set the default to an empty tuple,
which would exactly match the current behaviour.
are run in the order:
test_genexps (or any other doctest-based test)
test_struct
test_doctest
The `warnings` module needs an advertised way to save/restore
its internal filter list.
Renames functional extension module to _functools and adds a Python
functools module so that utility functions like update_wrapper can be
added easily.
Remove various dependencies on dictionary order in the standard library
tests, and one (clearly an oversight, potentially critical) in the
standard library itself - base64.py.
Remaining open issues:
* test_extcall is an output test, messy to make robust
* tarfile.py has a potential bug here, but I'm not familiar
enough with this code. Filed in as SF bug #1496501.
* urllib2.HTTPPasswordMgr() returns a random result if there is more
than one matching root path. I'm asking python-dev for
clarification...
invalid file paths for the built-in import machinery which leads to
fewer open calls on startup.
Also fix issue with PEP 302 style import hooks which lead to more open()
calls than necessary.
failures on Windows buildbots, but it's hard to know how since the regrtest
failure output is useless here, and it never fails when a buildbot slave runs
test_tarfile the second time in verbose mode.
The new split functions use a preallocated list. Added tests which exceed
the preallocation size, to exercise list appends/resizes.
Also added more edge case tests.
* Added socket.recv_buf() and socket.recvfrom_buf() methods, that use the buffer
protocol (send and sendto already did).
* Added struct.pack_to(), that is the corresponding buffer compatible method to
unpack_from().
* Fixed minor typos in arraymodule.
the Need For Speed sprint coding. Includes commented out overflow tests
which will be uncommented once the code is fixed.
This test will break the 8-bit string tests because
"".replace("", "A") == "" when it should == "A"
We have a fix for it, which should be added tomorrow.
In rare cases of strings specifying true values near sys.maxint,
and oddball bases (not decimal or a power of 2), int(string, base)
could deliver insane answers. This repairs all such problems, and
also speeds string->int significantly. On my box, here are %
speedups for decimal strings of various lengths:
length speedup
------ -------
1 12.4%
2 15.7%
3 20.6%
4 28.1%
5 33.2%
6 37.5%
7 41.9%
8 46.3%
9 51.2%
10 19.5%
11 19.9%
12 23.9%
13 23.7%
14 23.3%
15 24.9%
16 25.3%
17 28.3%
18 27.9%
19 35.7%
Note that the difference between 9 and 10 is the difference between
short and long Python ints on a 32-bit box. The patch doesn't
actually do anything to speed conversion to long: the speedup is
due to detecting "unsigned long" overflow more quickly.
This is a bugfix candidate, but it's a non-trivial patch and it
would be painful to separate the "bug fix" from the "speed up" parts.
This patchs makes it possible to create a universal build on OSX 10.4 and use
the result to build extensions on 10.3. It also makes it possible to override
the '-arch' and '-isysroot' compiler arguments for specific extensions.
the file object in binary mode.
The Windows buildbot slaves shouldn't swap themselves to death
anymore. However, test_tarfile may still fail because of a
temp directory left behind from a previous failing run.
Windows buildbot owners may need to remove that directory
by hand.
* Don't use xcodebuild for building PythonLauncher, but use a normal unix
makefile. This makes it a lot easier to use the same build flags as for the
rest of python (e.g. make a universal version of python launcher)
* Convert the mac makefile-s to makefile.in-s and use configure to set makefile
variables instead of forwarding them as command-line arguments
* Add a C version of pythonw, that we you can use '#!/usr/local/bin/pythonw'
* Build IDLE.app using bundlebuilder instead of BuildApplet, that will allow
easier modification of the bundle contents later on.
discussion.
There are two places of documentation that still mention __context__:
Doc/lib/libstdtypes.tex -- I wasn't quite sure how to rewrite that without
spending a whole lot of time thinking about it; and whatsnew, which Andrew
usually likes to change himself.
Patch #1464708 from William McVey: fixed handling of nested comments in mail
addresses. E.g.
"Foo ((Foo Bar)) <foo@example.com>"
Fixes for both rfc822.py and email package. This patch needs to be back
ported to Python 2.3 for email 2.5.
Printing to stdout, doesn't mean the data was actually written.
It depends on the buffering, so we need to flush. This will hopefully
really fix the buildbots getting killed due to no output on the slow bots.
