Jeremy Hylton f626db77df News items for my recent checkins 2001-03-23 14:18:27 +00:00
Fred Drake 4e262a9631 A small change to the C API for weakly-referencable types: Such types 
must now initialize the extra field used by the weak-ref machinery to
NULL themselves, to avoid having to require PyObject_INIT() to check
if the type supports weak references and do it there.  This causes less
work to be done for all objects (the type object does not need to be
consulted to check for the Py_TPFLAGS_HAVE_WEAKREFS bit).

 2001-02-20 23:07:56 +00:00
Tim Peters 25a9ce371c Take a tour of hell's seedier neighborhoods to try to make winsound.Beep() 
do something non-useless on Win9X boxes.  WinME unknown to me.  Someone with
NT/2000 make sure it still works there!
 2001-02-19 07:06:36 +00:00

 2001-02-18 08:28:33 +00:00
Neil Schemenauer 6e0e91af18 Remove outdated information. Merge now dead BeOS/README-readline. I'm not 
sure if that information is still relevant though.

Marc-André Lemburg 9f8cdf58a2 Patches for AIX. Checked by Benjamin Collar. 2001-02-09 09:59:06 +00:00
Tim Peters 909bc1cf63 SF bug #131225: sys.winver is still '2.0' in python 2.1a2. 
SF patch #103683: Alternative dll version resources.
Changes similar to the patch.  MarkH should review.
File version and Product version text strings now 2.1a2.
64-bit file and product version numbers are now
    PY_MAJOR_VERSION, PY_MINOR_VERSION, messy, PYTHON_API_VERSION
where
    messy = PY_MICRO_VERSION*1000 + PY_RELEASE_LEVEL*10 + PY_RELEASE_SERIAL
Updated company name to "Digital Creations 2".
Copyright now lists Guido; "C in a circle" symbol used instead of (C).
Comments added so this is less likely to get flubbed again, and
#if/#error guys added to trigger if the version number manipulations
above overflow.

Tim Peters b16c56f0ba Teach Windows build and installer about new _symtable module/DLL. 2001-02-02 21:24:51 +00:00
Jeremy Hylton d6b1cf9a55 Fix spelling errors. 
Add note about _symtable.
Add note that 'from ... import *' restriction may go away -- and move
the whole entry closer to the top, because it might bite people.
 2001-02-02 20:06:28 +00:00

wrong section and the section restriction was removed.

Fred Drake fb9d712721 Added comments about the weak reference support. 2001-02-01 20:00:40 +00:00
Tim Peters 0de88fc4b1 Change random.seed() so that it can get at the full range of possible 
internal states.  Put the old .seed() (which could only get at about
the square root of the # of possibilities) under the new name .whseed(),
for bit-level compatibility with older versions.  This occurred to me
while reviewing effbot's book (he found himself stumbling over .seed()
more than once there ...).

Barry Warsaw 30dbd1429a Document the two changes to the mailbox.py module: 
- All constructors grow an optional argument `factory' which is a
  callable used when new message instances are created by the next()
  methods.  Defaults to the rfc822.Message class.

- A new subclass of UnixMailbox is added, called PortableUnixMailbox.
  It's identical to UnixMailbox, but uses a more portable test for
  From_ delimiter lines.  With PortableUnixMailbox, any line that
  starts with "From " is considered a delimiter (this should really
  check for two newlines before the F, but it doesn't.

Tim Peters 0149e84af2 SF bug #130306: statcache.py full of thread problems. 
Fixed the thread races.  Function forget_dir was also utterly Unix-specific.

Tim Peters 547397c45b SF bug http://sourceforge.net/bugs/?func=detailbug&bug_id=130242&group_id=5470 
SF patch http://sourceforge.net/patch/?func=detailpatch&patch_id=103453&group_id=5470
PyMember_Set of T_CHAR always raises exception.
Unfortunately, this is a use of a C API function that Python itself never makes, so
there's no .py test I can check in to verify this stays fixed.  But the fault in the
code is obvious, and Dave Cole's patch just as obviously fixes it.
