Obtain the original locale in the documented way. This way actually
works for me.
Restore the original locale at the end, instead of forcing to "C".
Move the locale fiddling into the test driver instead of doing it as a
side effect of merely importing the module. I don't know why the test
is mucking with locale (and also added a comment saying so), but it
surely has no justification for doing that as an import side-effect.
Now whenever the locale-changing code executes, the locale-restoring code
will also get run.
If this doesn't happen, it leaves the locale in a state that can cause
other tests to fail. For example, running test_strptime,
test_logging, and test_time in that order.
SF bug #760703: SocketHandler and LogRecord don't work well together
SF bug #757821: logging module docs
Applied Vinay Sajip's patch with a few minor fixups and a NEWS item.
Patched __init__.py - added new function
makeLogRecord (for bug report 760703).
Patched handlers.py - updated some docstrings and
deleted some old commented-out code.
Patched test_logging.py to make use of makeLogRecord.
Patched liblogging.tex to fill documentation gaps (both
760703 and bug 757821).
signalling when the TCP server is done. Should hopefully solve hanging
issues for Solaris 8 & 9. Solves the apparent hanging issue with OS X.
Closes patch #729988 .
