Brett Cannon f7188cefb3 Make _strptime.TimeRE().pattern() use ``\s+`` for matching whitespace instead

Neal Norwitz 4a700bb469 SF 1668596/1720897: distutils now copies data files

if someone backports this if the buildbots are ok with it.  Otherwise,
I will try to get to it tomorrow.

Lars Gustäbel a0fcb9384e Added errors argument to TarFile class that allows the user to
specify an error handling scheme for character conversion. Additional
scheme "utf-8" in read mode. Unicode input filenames are now
supported by design. The values of the pax_headers dictionary are now
limited to unicode objects.

Fixed: The prefix field is no longer used in PAX_FORMAT (in
conformance with POSIX).
Fixed: In read mode use a possible pax header size field.
Fixed: Strip trailing slashes from pax header name values.
Fixed: Give values in user-specified pax_headers precedence when
writing.

Added unicode tests. Added pax/regtype4 member to testtar.tar all
possible number fields in a pax header.

Added two chapters to the documentation about the different formats
tarfile.py supports and how unicode issues are handled.

Matthias Klose e19e0c21ae - Fix an off-by-one bug in locale.strxfrm().
patch taken from http://bugs.debian.org/416934.
2007-04-03 04:35:59 +00:00
Brett Cannon c69066501b time.strptime's caching of its locale object was being recreated when the
locale changed but not used during the function call it was recreated during.

The test in this checkin is untested (OS X does not have the proper locale
support for me to test), although the fix for the bug this deals with
was tested by the OP (#1290505).  Once the buildbots verify the test at least
doesn't fail it becomes a backport candidate.
2007-04-01 18:47:27 +00:00
Neal Norwitz 8f35f44af3 SF #1685563, MSVCCompiler creates redundant and long PATH strings
If MSVCCompiler.initialize() was called multiple times, the path
would get duplicated.  On Windows, this is a problem because the
path is limited to 4k.  There's no benefit in adding a path multiple
times, so prevent that from occuring.  We also normalize the path
before checking for duplicates so things like /a and /a/ won't both
be stored.

Will backport.

Guido van Rossum 143b564059 - Bug #1683368: The object.__init__() and object.__new__() methods are
now stricter in rejecting excess arguments.  The only time when
  either allows excess arguments is when it is not overridden and the
  other one is.  For backwards compatibility, when both are
  overridden, it is a deprecation warning (for now; maybe a Py3k
  warning later).

When merging this into 3.0, the warnings should become errors.

Note: without the change to string.py, lots of spurious warnings happen.
What's going on there?

Lars Gustäbel c64e40215d This is the implementation of POSIX.1-2001 (pax) format read/write
support.

The TarInfo class now contains all necessary logic to process and
create tar header data which has been moved there from the TarFile
class. The fromtarfile() method was added. The new path and linkpath
properties are aliases for the name and linkname attributes in
correspondence to the pax naming scheme.

The TarFile constructor and classmethods now accept a number of
keyword arguments which could only be set as attributes before (e.g.
dereference, ignore_zeros). The encoding and pax_headers arguments
were added for pax support. There is a new tarinfo keyword argument
that allows using subclassed TarInfo objects in TarFile.

The boolean TarFile.posix attribute is deprecated, because now three
tar formats are supported. Instead, the desired format for writing is
specified using the constants USTAR_FORMAT, GNU_FORMAT and PAX_FORMAT
as the format keyword argument. This change affects TarInfo.tobuf()
as well.

The test suite has been heavily reorganized and partially rewritten.
A new testtar.tar was added that contains sample data in many formats
from 4 different tar programs.

Some bugs and quirks that also have been fixed:
Directory names do no longer have a trailing slash in TarInfo.name or
TarFile.getnames().
Adding the same file twice does not create a hardlink file member.
The TarFile constructor does no longer need a name argument.
The TarFile._mode attribute was renamed to mode and contains either
'r', 'w' or 'a'.

Thomas Heller 2456a3c02a Bug #1651235: When a tuple was passed to a ctypes function call,

Collin Winter fb728de5f4 Add NEWS item for patch #1481079 (r54234). 2007-03-09 03:26:32 +00:00
Brett Cannon a30fcb4dae Introduce test.test_support.TransientResource. It's a context manager to
surround calls to resources that may or may not be available.  Specifying the
expected exception and attributes to be raised if the resource is not available
prevents overly broad catching of exceptions.

This is meant to help suppress spurious failures by raising
test.test_support.ResourceDenied if the exception matches.  It would probably
be good to go through the various network tests and surround the calls to catch
connection timeouts (as done with test_socket_ssl in this commit).

its name.

Brett Cannon 971a012ce1 Update the encoding package's search function to use absolute imports when
calling __import__.  This helps make the expected search locations for encoding
modules be more explicit.

One could use an explicit value for __path__ when making the call to __import__
to force the exact location searched for encodings.  This would give the most
strict search path possible if one is worried about malicious code being
imported.  The unfortunate side-effect of that is that if __path__ was modified
on 'encodings' on purpose in a safe way it would not be picked up in future
__import__ calls.

Neal Norwitz 4fe442383d Bug #1599782: Fix segfault on bsddb.db.DB().type().
The problem is that _DB_get_type() can't be called without the GIL
because it calls a bunch of PyErr_* APIs when an error occurs.
There were no other cases in this file that it was called without the GIL.
Removing the BEGIN/END THREAD around _DB_get_type() made everything work.

Armin Rigo 7ccbca93a2 Forward-port of r52136,52138: a review of overflow-detecting code.
* unified the way intobject, longobject and mystrtoul handle
  values around -sys.maxint-1.

* in general, trying to entierely avoid overflows in any computation
  involving signed ints or longs is extremely involved.  Fixed a few
  simple cases where a compiler might be too clever (but that's all
  guesswork).

* more overflow checks against bad data in marshal.c.

* 2.5 specific: fixed a number of places that were still confusing int
  and Py_ssize_t.  Some of them could potentially have caused
  "real-world" breakage.

* list.pop(x): fixing overflow issues on x was messy.  I just reverted
  to PyArg_ParseTuple("n"), which does the right thing.  (An obscure
  test was trying to give a Decimal to list.pop()... doesn't make
  sense any more IMHO)

* trying to write a few tests...

In order to avoid compiler warnings on OS X 10.4, also change the order of the check
for the format character to use (PY_FORMAT_SIZE_T) in the sprintf format
for Py_ssize_t.  This patch changes PY_FORMAT_SIZE_T from "" to "l" if it wasn't
defined at configure time.  Need to verify the buildbot results.

Backport candidate (if everyone thinks this patch can't be improved).

Georg Brandl ec6c2dfb63 Forward-port of rev. 51857:
Building with HP's cc on HP-UX turned up a couple of problems.
_PyGILState_NoteThreadState was declared as static inconsistently.
Make it static as it's not necessary outside of this module.

Some tests failed because errno was reset to 0. (I think the tests
that failed were at least: test_fcntl and test_mailbox).
Ensure that errno doesn't change after a call to Py_END_ALLOW_THREADS.
This only affected debug builds.

Neal Norwitz bcc119a22c Forward port of 51850 from release25-maint branch.

This patch also adds a test to prevent the regression.

Neal Norwitz dac090d3e6 Bug #1520864 (again): unpacking singleton tuples in list comprehensions and
generator expressions (x for x, in ... ) works again.

Sigh, I only fixed for loops the first time, not list comps and genexprs too.
I couldn't find any more unpacking cases where there is a similar bug lurking.

This code should be refactored to eliminate the duplication.  I'm sure
the listcomp/genexpr code can be refactored.  I'm not sure if the for loop
can re-use any of the same code though.

Will backport to 2.5 (the only place it matters).

Tim Peters c10c9d0d6b "Conceptual" merge of rev 51711 from the 2.5 branch.
i_divmod():  As discussed on Python-Dev, changed the overflow
checking to live happily with recent gcc optimizations that
assume signed integer arithmetic never overflows.

This differs from the corresponding change on the 2.5 and 2.4
branches, using a less obscure approach, but one that /may/
tickle platform idiocies in their definitions of LONG_MIN.
The 2.4 + 2.5 change avoided introducing a dependence on
LONG_MIN, at the cost of substantially goofier code.

Thomas Heller 867200483b Apply the patch #1532975 plus ideas from the patch #1533481.
ctypes instances no longer have the internal and undocumented
'_as_parameter_' attribute which was used to adapt them to foreign
function calls; this mechanism is replaced by a function pointer in
the type's stgdict.

In the 'from_param' class methods, try the _as_parameter_ attribute if
other conversions are not possible.

This makes the documented _as_parameter_ mechanism work as intended.

Change the ctypes version number to 1.0.1.

Neal Norwitz 1872b1c01f Fix a couple of bugs exposed by the new __index__ code. The 64-bit buildbots
were failing due to inappropriate clipping of numbers larger than 2**31
with new-style classes. (typeobject.c)  In reviewing the code for classic
classes, there were 2 problems.  Any negative value return could be returned.
Always return -1 if there was an error.  Also make the checks similar
with the new-style classes.  I believe this is correct for 32 and 64 bit
boxes, including Windows64.

Add a test of classic classes too.

Phillip J. Eby f7575d0cb7 Bug #1529871: The speed enhancement patch #921466 broke Python's compliance
with PEP 302.  This was fixed by adding an ``imp.NullImporter`` type that is
used in ``sys.path_importer_cache`` to cache non-directory paths and avoid
excessive filesystem operations during imports.

Barry Warsaw 00decd7835 Patch #1520294: Support for getset and member descriptors in types.py,
inspect.py, and pydoc.py.  Specifically, this allows for querying the type of
an object against these built-in C types and more importantly, for getting
their docstrings printed in the interactive interpreter's help() function.

This patch includes a new built-in module called _types which provides
definitions of getset and member descriptors for use by the types.py module.
These types are exposed as types.GetSetDescriptorType and
types.MemberDescriptorType.  Query functions are provided as
inspect.isgetsetdescriptor() and inspect.ismemberdescriptor().  The
implementations of these are robust enough to work with Python implementations
other than CPython, which may not have these fundamental types.

The patch also includes documentation and test suite updates.

I commit these changes now under these guiding principles:

1. Silence is assent.  The release manager has not said "no", and of the few
   people that cared enough to respond to the thread, the worst vote was "0".

2. It's easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.

3. It's so dang easy to revert stuff in svn, that you could view this as a
   forcing function. :)

Windows build patches will follow.

Tim Peters bc24eee333 Bug #1521947: possible bug in mystrtol.c with recent gcc.
In general, C doesn't define anything about what happens when
an operation on a signed integral type overflows, and PyOS_strtol()
did several formally undefined things of that nature on signed
longs.  Some version of gcc apparently tries to exploit that now,
and PyOS_strtol() could fail to detect overflow then.

Tried to repair all that, although it seems at least as likely to me
that we'll get screwed by bad platform definitions for LONG_MIN
and/or LONG_MAX now.  For that reason, I don't recommend backporting
this.

Note that I have no box on which this makes a lick of difference --
can't really test it, except to note that it didn't break anything
on my boxes.

Silent change:  PyOS_strtol() used to return the hard-coded 0x7fffffff
in case of overflow.  Now it returns LONG_MAX.  They're the same only on
32-bit boxes (although C doesn't guarantee that either ...).

Barry Warsaw b110bad2d9 More RFC 2231 improvements for the email 4.0 package. As Mark Sapiro rightly
points out there are really two types of continued headers defined in this
RFC (i.e. "encoded" parameters with the form "name*0*=" and unencoded
parameters with the form "name*0="), but we were were handling them both the
same way and that isn't correct.

This patch should be much more RFC compliant in that only encoded params are
%-decoded and the charset/language information is only extract if there are
any encoded params in the segments.  If there are no encoded params then the
RFC says that there will be no charset/language parts.

Note however that this will change the return value for Message.get_param() in
some cases.  For example, whereas before if you had all unencoded param
continuations you would have still gotten a 3-tuple back from this method
(with charset and language == None), you will now get just a string.  I don't
believe this is a backward incompatible change though because the
documentation for this method already indicates that either return value is
possible and that you must do an isinstance(val, tuple) check to discriminate
between the two.  (Yeah that API kind of sucks but we can't change /that/
without breaking code.)

Test cases, some documentation updates, and a NEWS item accompany this patch.

Tim Peters 112aad3630 SF bug 1524317: configure --without-threads fails to build
Moved the code for _PyThread_CurrentFrames() up, so it's no longer
in a huge "#ifdef WITH_THREAD" block (I didn't realize it /was/ in
one).

Changed test_sys's test_current_frames() so it passes with or without
thread supported compiled in.

Note that test_sys fails when Python is compiled without threads,
but for an unrelated reason (the old test_exit() fails with an
indirect ImportError on the `thread` module).  There are also
other unrelated compilation failures without threads, in extension
modules (like ctypes); at least the core compiles again.

Do we really support --without-threads?  If so, there are several
problems remaining.

within the valid range.  Now those values force the value internally to the
minimum value when 0 is passed in.

Tim Peters 43898b4f64 SequenceMatcher.get_matching_blocks(): This now guarantees that
adjacent triples in the result list describe non-adjacent matching
blocks.  That's _nice_ to have, and Guido said he wanted it.

Not a bugfix candidate:  Guido or not ;-), this changes visible
endcase semantics (note that some tests had to change), and
nothing about this was documented before.  Since it was working
as designed, and behavior was consistent with the docs, it wasn't
"a bug".

Brett Cannon ea3912b0da If a classic class defined a __coerce__() method that just returned its two
arguments in reverse, the interpreter would infinitely recourse trying to get a
coercion that worked.  So put in a recursion check after a coercion is made and
the next call to attempt to use the coerced values.

Fixes bug #992017 and closes crashers/coerce.py .

Brett Cannon de3b052216 Buffer objects would return the read or write buffer for a wrapped object when
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).

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

followed by merging rev 46647 to the new branch.

Tim Peters 9ea89d2a19 In a PYMALLOC_DEBUG build obmalloc adds extra debugging info
to each allocated block.  This was using 4 bytes for each such
piece of info regardless of platform.  This didn't really matter
before (proof: no bug reports, and the debug-build obmalloc would
have assert-failed if it was ever asked for a chunk of memory
>= 2**32 bytes), since container indices were plain ints.  But after
the Py_ssize_t changes, it's at least theoretically possible to
allocate a list or string whose guts exceed 2**32 bytes, and the
PYMALLOC_DEBUG routines would fail then (having only 4 bytes
to record the originally requested size).

Now we use sizeof(size_t) bytes for each of a PYMALLOC_DEBUG
build's extra debugging fields.  This won't make any difference
on 32-bit boxes, but will add 16 bytes to each allocation in
a debug build on a 64-bit box.

Now pprint functions always sort dicts by key, and the docs
promise it.

Tim Peters 696cf43b58 Heavily fiddled variant of patch #1442927: PyLong_FromString optimization.
``long(str, base)`` is now up to 6x faster for non-power-of-2 bases.  The
largest speedup is for inputs with about 1000 decimal digits.  Conversion
from non-power-of-2 bases remains quadratic-time in the number of input
digits (it was and remains linear-time for bases 2, 4, 8, 16 and 32).

Speedups at various lengths for decimal inputs, comparing 2.4.3 with
current trunk.  Note that it's actually a bit slower for 1-digit strings:

  len  speedup

Tim Peters b713ec2531 Bug #1334662 / patch #1335972: int(string, base) wrong answers.
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.

(both inherited from PyString_FromFormatV), it would be good if someone

Their docs were way out of synch before this patch, and I just did a
mass copy+paste to repair that.

Not a backport candidate (this is a new feature).

Andrew M. Kuchling 1da4a94719 Add Gregory K. Johnson's revised version of mailbox.py (funded by
the 2005 Summer of Code).

The revision adds a number of new mailbox classes that support adding
and removing messages; these classes also support mailbox locking and
default to using email.Message instead of rfc822.Message.

The old mailbox classes are largely left alone for backward compatibility.
The exception is the Maildir class, which was present in the old module
and now inherits from the new classes.  The Maildir class's interface
is pretty simple, though, so I think it'll be compatible with existing
code.

(The change to the NEWS file also adds a missing word to a different
news item, which unfortunately required rewrapping the line.)

Tim Peters 21fbd57d66 SF bug #1473760 TempFile can hang on Windows.
Python 2.4 changed ntpath.abspath to do an import
inside the function.  As a result, due to Python's
import lock, anything calling abspath on Windows
(directly, or indirectly like tempfile.TemporaryFile)
hung when it was called from a thread spawned as a
side effect of importing a module.

This is a depressingly frequent problem, and
deserves a more general fix.  I'm settling for
a micro-fix here because this specific one accounts
for a report of Zope Corp's ZEO hanging on Windows,
and it was an odd way to change abspath to begin
with (ntpath needs a different implementation
depending on whether we're actually running on
Windows, and the _obvious_ way to arrange for that
is not to bury a possibly-failing import _inside_
the function).

Note that if/when other micro-fixes of this kind
get made, the new Lib/test/threaded_import_hangers.py
is a convenient place to add tests for them.

Tim Peters c9d78aa470 Years in the making.
objimpl.h, pymem.h:  Stop mapping PyMem_{Del, DEL} and PyMem_{Free, FREE}
to PyObject_{Free, FREE} in a release build.  They're aliases for the
system free() now.

_subprocess.c/sp_handle_dealloc():  Since the memory was originally
obtained via PyObject_NEW, it must be released via PyObject_FREE (or
_DEL).

pythonrun.c, tokenizer.c, parsermodule.c:  I lost count of the number of
PyObject vs PyMem mismatches in these -- it's like the specific
function called at each site was picked at random, sometimes even with
memory obtained via PyMem getting released via PyObject.  Changed most
to use PyObject uniformly, since the blobs allocated are predictably
small in most cases, and obmalloc is generally faster than system
mallocs then.

If extension modules in real life prove as sloppy as Python's front
end, we'll have to revert the objimpl.h + pymem.h part of this patch.
Note that no problems will show up in a debug build (all calls still go
thru obmalloc then). Problems will show up only in a release build, most
likely segfaults.

Georg Brandl 533ff6fc06 Patch #1434038: property() now uses the getter's docstring if there is
no "doc" argument given. This makes it possible to legitimately use
property() as a decorator to produce a read-only property.

Brett Cannon bf36409e2a PEP 352 implementation. Creates a new base class, BaseException, which has an
added message attribute compared to the previous version of Exception.  It is
also a new-style class, making all exceptions now new-style.  KeyboardInterrupt
and SystemExit inherit from BaseException directly.  String exceptions now
raise DeprecationWarning.

Applies patch 1104669, and closes bugs 1012952 and 518846.
2006-03-01 04:25:17 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 1a5e21e033 Updates to the with-statement:
- New semantics for __exit__() -- it must re-raise the exception
  if type is not None; the with-statement itself doesn't do this.
  (See the updated PEP for motivation.)

- Added context managers to:
  - file
  - thread.LockType
  - threading.{Lock,RLock,Condition,Semaphore,BoundedSemaphore}
  - decimal.Context

- Added contextlib.py, which defines @contextmanager, nested(), closing().

- Unit tests all around; bot no docs yet.

Neal Norwitz 0023a2f858 Finish removal of CO_GENERATOR_ALLOWED. 2006-02-27 23:24:48 +00:00
Guido van Rossum c2e20744b2 PEP 343 -- the with-statement.
This was started by Mike Bland and completed by Guido
(with help from Neal).

This still needs a __future__ statement added;
Thomas is working on Michael's patch for that aspect.

There's a small amount of code cleanup and refactoring
in ast.c, compile.c and ceval.c (I fixed the lltrace
behavior when EXT_POP is used -- however I had to make
lltrace a static global).

Martin v. Löwis 415ed937c2 Skip over doc strings. 2006-02-27 19:56:30 +00:00
Tim Peters f4e6928c4d Patch 1413181, by Gabriel Becedillas.
PyThreadState_Delete():  if the auto-GIL-state machinery knows about
the thread state, forget it (since the thread state is being deleted,
continuing to remember it can't help, but can hurt if another thread
happens to get created with the same thread id).

I'll backport to 2.4 next.

Guido van Rossum 1968ad32cd - Patch 1433928:
- The copy module now "copies" function objects (as atomic objects).
  - dict.__getitem__ now looks for a __missing__ hook before raising
    KeyError.
  - Added a new type, defaultdict, to the collections module.
    This uses the new __missing__ hook behavior added to dict (see above).

Armin Rigo a871ef2b3e Added the cProfile module.
Based on lsprof (patch #1212837) by Brett Rosen and Ted Czotter.
With further editing by Michael Hudson and myself.
History in svn repo: http://codespeak.net/svn/user/arigo/hack/misc/lsprof

* Module/_lsprof.c is the internal C module, Lib/cProfile.py a wrapper.
* pstats.py updated to display cProfile's caller/callee timings if available.
* setup.py and NEWS updated.
* documentation updates in the profiler section:
   - explain the differences between the three profilers that we have now
   - profile and cProfile can use a unified documentation, like (c)Pickle
   - mention that hotshot is "for specialized usage" now
   - removed references to the "old profiler" that no longer exists
* test updates:
   - extended test_profile to cover delicate cases like recursion
   - added tests for the caller/callee displays
   - added test_cProfile, performing the same tests for cProfile
* TO-DO:
   - cProfile gives a nicer name to built-in, particularly built-in methods,
     which could be backported to profile.
   - not tested on Windows recently!

Neal Norwitz 082b2df33f Bug #876637, prevent stack corruption when socket descriptor
is larger than FD_SETSIZE.

This can only be acheived with ulimit -n SOME_NUMBER_BIGGER_THAN_FD_SETSIZE
which is typically only available to root.  Since this wouldn't normally
be run in a test (ie, run as root), it doesn't seem too worthwhile to
add a normal test.  The bug report has one version of a test.  I've
written another.  Not sure what the best thing to do is.

Do the check before calling internal_select() because we can't set
an error in between Py_BEGIN_ALLOW_THREADS and Py_END_ALLOW_THREADS.
This seemed the clearest solution, ie handle before calling internal_select()
rather than inside.  Plus there is at least one place outside
of internal_select() that needed to be handled.

Will backport.

Martin v. Löwis 0075690ced Patch #1412872: zipfile: use correct system type on unixy systems. 2006-02-05 17:09:41 +00:00
Neal Norwitz 0e6bc8c260 Patch #1407135, bug #1424041, make mmap.mmap(-1, length) work the same
on both Unix (SVR4 and BSD) and Windows.  Restores behaviour of passing -1
for anonymous memory on Unix.  Use MAP_ANONYMOUS instead of _ANON since
the latter is deprecated according to Linux (gentoo) man pages.

Should we continue to allow mmap.mmap(0, length) to work on Windows?
0 is a valid fd.

Will backport bugfix portions.
