Skip Montanaro 8e790e7007 expose PYTHON_API_VERSION macro as sys.api_version. Closes patch # 601456. 2002-09-03 13:25:17 +00:00
Martin v. Löwis f62a89b1e0 Ignore encoding declarations inside strings. Fixes #603509. 2002-09-03 11:52:44 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling 65b7282ef7 Add reminder about PEP293 2002-09-03 00:53:21 +00:00
Walter Dörwald 3aeb632c31 PEP 293 implemention (from SF patch http://www.python.org/sf/432401) 2002-09-02 13:14:32 +00:00
Michael W. Hudson 53d58bb369 Further SET_LINENO reomval fixes. See comments in patch #587933. 
Use a slightly different strategy to determine when not to call the line
trace function.  This removes the need for the RETURN_NONE opcode, so
that's gone again.  Update docs and comments to match.

Thanks to Neal and Armin!

Also add a test suite.  This should have come with the original patch...
 2002-08-30 13:09:51 +00:00
Skip Montanaro ee113f08f8 add warning about exception messages 2002-08-28 01:14:57 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 9240be2a35 Note change in behavior from 1.5.2. The new argument to NameError is 
an error message and not just the missing name.

Closes SF Bug 599869.
 2002-08-27 23:53:23 +00:00
Fred Drake 80a04a4894 Add strong security warning about the rexec module. 
Closes SF patch #600861.

Minor markup changes.
 2002-08-27 16:46:06 +00:00
Fred Drake 246beb2526 Don't use tempfile.mktemp(), since it produces annoying warnings, and 
usually isn't what we want anyway.
 2002-08-27 16:34:54 +00:00
Tim Peters ea76c98014 Implemented <, <=, >, >= for sets, giving subset and proper-subset 
meanings.  I did not add new, e.g., ispropersubset() methods; we're
going nuts on those, and, e.g., there was no "friendly name" for
== either.
 2002-08-25 18:43:10 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 7ad09552d0 Correct documentation of allow_reuse_address to match the actual script. 
Closes SF bug 599681.
 2002-08-25 16:27:33 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger e87ab3fefe Removed < <= > >= from the API. Implemented as comparisons of the 
underlying dictionaries, there were no reasonable use cases (lexicographic
sorting of a list of sets is somewhat esoteric).  Frees the operators
for other uses (such as strict subset and superset comparisons).

Updated documentation and test suite accordingly.
 2002-08-24 07:33:06 +00:00
Fred Drake 055be47b43 Fix typo reported to python-docs. 2002-08-23 21:19:53 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger fa8dd5f407 Fix markup and punctuation 2002-08-23 18:10:54 +00:00
Tim Peters b81b252fab s/_as_Temporarily_Immutable/_as_temporarily_immutable/g, because the 
latter is what the code actually does.
 2002-08-23 17:48:23 +00:00
Tim Peters 54fd3e6ffc pop(): An arbitrary element is removed, not a random element. 2002-08-23 17:45:43 +00:00
Fred Drake d10c6c949a Adjust the markup in a few places so this will actually format. 
Remove the third column in the tables since it isn't used.
 2002-08-23 17:22:36 +00:00
Fred Drake d526011091 Add an entry for the sets module documentation. 
Move another entry so the boilerplate doesn't get mixed up with
document-specific content.
 2002-08-23 15:38:02 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 584cb198f7 Load docs for sets.py 2002-08-23 15:18:38 +00:00
Greg Ward 373198e751 Fix peculiar (and ungrammatical) wording in an example program. 2002-08-22 19:15:35 +00:00
Fred Drake 13090e1025 Give the section on PEP 263 a more meaningful title, so readers will 
be able to locate this information without knowing the PEP number.
 2002-08-22 16:51:08 +00:00
Fred Drake 5ec486b87a Add a note that apply() is needed since the extended call syntax is 
completely equivalent.
 2002-08-22 14:27:35 +00:00
Fred Drake 61cf4407be Added a main() function and support to run this module as a script. 
Closes SF feature request #588768.
 2002-08-21 20:56:21 +00:00
Fred Drake 5b09eeea89 Clarify that even though some of the relevant specifications define the 
order in which form variables should be encoded in a request, a CGI script
should not rely on that since a client may not conform to those specs, or
they may not be relevant to the request.
Closes SF bug #596866.
 2002-08-21 19:24:21 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger a6e16a86c4 Replace all cases of "while 1" with "while True". 
Though slightly slower, has better clarity and teaching value.
 2002-08-21 04:54:00 +00:00
Fred Drake ffefb1df56 Clarify the endpos argument to the rx.match() method. 
Closes SF bug #597177.
 2002-08-20 13:57:47 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling bc4651083e Cover the sets module. 
(There's a link to PEP218; has PEP218 been updated to match the actual
module implementation?)
 2002-08-20 01:34:06 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling 6974aa93c1 Create two subsections of the "Core Language Changes" section, because 
the list is getting awfully long
Mention Karatsuba multiplication and some other items
 2002-08-20 00:54:36 +00:00
Neal Norwitz 11b795cd0f Add versionadded for operator.pow 2002-08-19 22:38:01 +00:00
Fred Drake 017778332f Extend some comments on the order of values in the returns from 
dict.items/keys/values/iteritems/iterkeys/itervalues().
 2002-08-19 21:58:58 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 45ec02aed1 SF patch 576101, by Oren Tirosh: alternative implementation of 
interning.  I modified Oren's patch significantly, but the basic idea
and most of the implementation is unchanged.  Interned strings created
with PyString_InternInPlace() are now mortal, and you must keep a
reference to the resulting string around; use the new function
PyString_InternImmortal() to create immortal interned strings.
 2002-08-19 21:43:18 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 5959c559df Added __pow__(a,b) to the operator module. Completes the pattern of 
all operators having a counterpart in the operator module.

Closes SF bug #577513.
 2002-08-19 03:19:09 +00:00
Michael W. Hudson dd32a91cc0 This is my patch 
[ 587993 ] SET_LINENO killer

Remove SET_LINENO.  Tracing is now supported by inspecting co_lnotab.

Many sundry changes to document and adapt to this change.
 2002-08-15 14:59:02 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling 90e9a79afd Add 'in' change 
Revise sentence
Add two reminders
 2002-08-15 00:40:21 +00:00
Fred Drake 794643c314 Py_InitModule() and friends now accept NULL for the 'methods' 
argument.  This makes sense now that extension types can support
__init__ directly rather than requiring function constructors.
 2002-08-14 20:59:38 +00:00
Barry Warsaw b8c20a723f More updates describing FutureWarnings. 2002-08-14 16:40:54 +00:00

Fred Drake 5c08a99b77 Remove a broken example of extreme backward compatibility; it is 
simply not relevant any more.
Closes SF bug #595032.
 2002-08-14 15:26:18 +00:00
Fred Drake 918af2aef7 The auto-reply text for the python-docs address. This is not automatically 
updated when checkins are made, but I can get that updated when needed.
 2002-08-12 22:01:42 +00:00
Fred Drake a132f6c38b Accomodate the packaging changes when we unpack into the dev/doc/ area 
on python.org.
 2002-08-09 22:56:46 +00:00
Fred Drake 1a0199a74f Lots of changes to the packaging of the documentation, all to keep 
directories clean where the packages are unpacked.  Each package now
contains a single directory, Python-Docs-<version>/, which contains the
files for that version of the documentation.

Closes SF feature request #567576.
 2002-08-09 20:20:50 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 830a5151c1 Doc portion of SF 589982 (tempfile.py rewrite, by Zack Weinberg). 
Fred, please review!
 2002-08-09 16:16:30 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger ae7ef57cba GvR pointed out that only enclosing function bodies are part of nested scopes. 2002-08-07 20:20:52 +00:00
Guido van Rossum b2865919cc Document that heappop() and heapreplace() raise IndexError if the heap 
is empty.
 2002-08-07 18:56:08 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 83dcf5a290 Apply character{} markup. 2002-08-07 16:53:17 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 22c001bd29 Described responsibilty of weakly referenced extension types to initialize 
the weakreflist to NULL in the constructor and to fill the tp_flags
slot with Py_TPFLAGS_HAVE_WEAKREFS.  Closes SF bug 586583.
 2002-08-07 16:18:54 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 861bb02448 Describe nested scopes in the tutorial. Closes SF bug 500704. 2002-08-07 16:09:48 +00:00

Fred Drake 442c7c7743 Clarify that the bool instances are acceptable return values from 
__nonzero__(), in response to SF bug #579991.
 2002-08-07 15:40:15 +00:00
Fred Drake f7aa164d7a Fix up some more markup problems. 2002-08-07 13:24:09 +00:00
Fred Drake 95fa4ddf7b Change the markup a bit more; the parameter was not marked as \var in the 
sample code, and the note was marked as a logical thing.
 2002-08-07 12:39:33 +00:00
Steve Holden 63d5bead18 Fix markup errors. 2002-08-07 12:01:41 +00:00

file in unix-Python.

Closes SF bug #586937.
 2002-08-06 21:26:01 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 43af5b5852 Add some fine points: METH_KEYWORDS implies METH_VARARGS, and ob_size 
is no longer unused in type objects.
 2002-08-06 17:18:56 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 97c5fccd77 Remove mention of deprecated xreadlines method. 2002-08-06 17:03:25 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 0fc01865f3 Document file.next(). Mark xreadlines obsolete (both method and 
module).  (One thing remains to be done: the gzip class has an
xreadline method; this ought to be replaced by an iterator as well.)
 2002-08-06 17:01:28 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 817918cc3c Committing patch #591250 which provides "str1 in str2" when str1 is a 
string of longer than 1 character.
 2002-08-06 16:58:21 +00:00

Document heapq module
Add PEP263 section (not sure I really understand the PEP's effect on 8-bit
   strings, though -- will have to experiment with it)
 2002-08-06 01:40:48 +00:00

Guido van Rossum 975121664e Add docs for heapq.py. 2002-08-02 18:03:24 +00:00
Skip Montanaro de994d9130 indicate that 'b' is added to the mode flag if not given 2002-08-02 17:20:46 +00:00
Tim Peters 74824584ef Added new footnote about list.sort() stability. Repaired footnote about 
using sort() with comparison functions (it made reference to the non-
existent "builtin-in function sort()").

BTW, I changed list.sort's docstring to contain the word "stable" -- the
easiest way to tell whether a particular Python version's sort *is* stable
is to look for "stable" in the docstring.  I'm not sure whether to
advertise this <wink>.
 2002-08-01 03:10:45 +00:00
Mark Hammond 543fb35cca Replace DL_EXPORT with PyMODINIT_FUNC 2002-07-31 06:17:46 +00:00
Fred Drake 5b11bdd0ed SF patch #581414: info reader bug 
The "Matching vs. Searching" Info node is unreachable from the Info
program (but is fine in Emacs's Info mode). This patch seems to fix
it.  This is the only occurrence where the info reader fails, so
probably it could be addressed in the python docs as a workaround.
Forwarded the report to the info maintainer.
 2002-07-30 17:51:20 +00:00
Thomas Heller 085358a3e2 New functions for extension writers on Windows: 
PyErr_SetExcFromWindowsErr(), PyErr_SetExcFromWindowsErrWithFilename().

Similar to PyErr_SetFromWindowsErrWithFilename() and
PyErr_SetFromWindowsErr(), but they allow to specify
the exception type to raise. Available on Windows.

See SF patch #576458.
 2002-07-29 14:27:41 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling 52f1b76f6c Add posix.lchown() 2002-07-28 20:29:03 +00:00

Fred Drake db40afaabe Small clarifications when referring to the sys.exc_* variables so that 
readers are not given the wrong impression that they should be using those
on a regualar basis.
This closes SF bug #585598.

Michael W. Hudson 4da01ed9a8 Substantially flesh out extended slice section. I think this is probably 
done now.
 2002-07-19 15:48:56 +00:00
Michael W. Hudson f0d777c56b A few days ago, Guido said (in the thread "[Python-Dev] Python 
version of PySlice_GetIndicesEx"):

> OK.  Michael, if you want to check in indices(), go ahead.

Then I did what was needed, but didn't check it in.  Here it is.
 2002-07-19 15:47:06 +00:00

Fred Drake 50ceb68b4f Change staticforward and statichere to just use static. 
Removed ^M from some line-ends.
 2002-07-17 16:42:48 +00:00
Fred Drake a3cd9bbaa3 Remove now-obsolete staticforward/statichere discussion. 2002-07-17 16:40:39 +00:00
Fred Drake 2095b9690f reduce(): Clarified what is returned in the case of a sequence 1 item long and 
initial/default value.

Guido van Rossum 9534e14033 Record the decision that StopIteration is a sink state (see recent

Guido van Rossum 54ed2d32f9 Clarify that the description of sys.path[0] is only valid upon program 
start-up.
 2002-07-15 16:08:10 +00:00
