svn+ssh://pythondev@svn.python.org/python/trunk (Note: some conflicts in the PCbuild9 directory reverted. Sorry Christian!) ........ r59120 | christian.heimes | 2007-11-22 03:21:16 -0800 (Thu, 22 Nov 2007) | 3 lines Backport of the PCbuild9 directory from the py3k branch. I've finished the last task for the PCbuild9 directory today. I don't think there is much left to do. Now you can all play around with the shiny new VS 2008 and try the PGO builds. I was able to get a speed improvement of about 10% on py3k. Have fun! :) ........ r59126 | brett.cannon | 2007-11-22 16:06:51 -0800 (Thu, 22 Nov 2007) | 2 lines Fix a bug in the test for using __loader__.get_data(). ........ r59131 | christian.heimes | 2007-11-22 23:05:03 -0800 (Thu, 22 Nov 2007) | 1 line Backport of PCbuild9 fixes from py3k r59130 ........ r59132 | christian.heimes | 2007-11-23 01:10:36 -0800 (Fri, 23 Nov 2007) | 2 lines Applied patch #1754273 and #1754271 from Thomas Glee The patches are adding deprecation warnings for back ticks and <> ........ r59133 | christian.heimes | 2007-11-23 04:12:02 -0800 (Fri, 23 Nov 2007) | 2 lines Fixed problems in the last commit. Filenames and line numbers weren't reported correctly. Backquotes still don't report the correct file. The AST nodes only contain the line number but not the file name. ........ r59134 | christian.heimes | 2007-11-23 04:16:35 -0800 (Fri, 23 Nov 2007) | 1 line How did the comment get there? ........ r59135 | christian.heimes | 2007-11-23 05:25:31 -0800 (Fri, 23 Nov 2007) | 1 line And yet another fix for the patch. Paul Moore has send me a note that I've missed a declaration. The additional code has moved the declaration in the middle of the block. ........ r59136 | andrew.kuchling | 2007-11-23 05:37:39 -0800 (Fri, 23 Nov 2007) | 1 line Add item ........ r59137 | skip.montanaro | 2007-11-23 09:08:35 -0800 (Fri, 23 Nov 2007) | 2 lines Make trace and doctest play nice together (issue 1429818).

This avoids a lot of conversions, and achieves a speedup of 40%. The API remains intact. Thanks Mark Dickinson. ........ r59146 | facundo.batista | 2007-11-23 10:14:50 -0800 (Fri, 23 Nov 2007) | 3 lines Test cases from Cowlishaw, v2.57. All are pased cleanly. ........ r59156 | christian.heimes | 2007-11-23 17:36:02 -0800 (Fri, 23 Nov 2007) | 2 lines Added filename to compiling struct based on Martin's suggestion. I'm wonder why I was trying to add the filename to the node all the time. The compiling struct is more obvious. ........ r59158 | christian.heimes | 2007-11-23 17:53:59 -0800 (Fri, 23 Nov 2007) | 2 lines Backport of fixes from py3k branch svn merge -r59131:HEAD ../../py3k/PCbuild9/ . ........ r59159 | skip.montanaro | 2007-11-23 20:29:08 -0800 (Fri, 23 Nov 2007) | 1 line revert change that breaks test_doctest (which I forgot to run - sorry) ........ r59162 | skip.montanaro | 2007-11-23 20:31:15 -0800 (Fri, 23 Nov 2007) | 1 line revert ........ r59164 | georg.brandl | 2007-11-24 03:31:46 -0800 (Sat, 24 Nov 2007) | 3 lines #1344: document that you need to open std{in,out,err} with PIPE if you want communicate() to work as described. ........ r59165 | georg.brandl | 2007-11-24 03:39:13 -0800 (Sat, 24 Nov 2007) | 2 lines #1467: fix documentation for TestResult.add{Error,Failure}. ........ r59166 | georg.brandl | 2007-11-24 03:42:14 -0800 (Sat, 24 Nov 2007) | 2 lines #1355: remove mention of PyXML from xml.dom docs. ........ r59169 | amaury.forgeotdarc | 2007-11-24 05:20:22 -0800 (Sat, 24 Nov 2007) | 2 lines Warning "<> not supported in 3.x" should be enabled only when the -3 option is set. ........ r59170 | amaury.forgeotdarc | 2007-11-24 05:44:17 -0800 (Sat, 24 Nov 2007) | 3 lines Issue #1445: Fix a SystemError when accessing the ``cell_contents`` attribute of an empty cell object.

Python Documentation README ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This directory contains the reStructuredText (reST) sources to the Python documentation. You don't need to build them yourself, prebuilt versions are available at http://docs.python.org/download/. Documentation on the authoring Python documentation, including information about both style and markup, is available in the "Documenting Python" chapter of the documentation. There's also a chapter intended to point out differences to those familiar with the previous docs written in LaTeX. Building the docs ================= You need to install Python 2.5.1 or higher (but Python 3.0 is not supported yet); the toolset used to build the docs are written in Python. The toolset used to build the documentation is called *Sphinx*, it is not included in this tree, but maintained separately in the Python Subversion repository. Also needed are Jinja, a templating engine (included in Sphinx as a Subversion external), and optionally Pygments, a code highlighter. Using make ---------- Luckily, a Makefile has been prepared so that on Unix, provided you have installed Python and Subversion, you can just run :: make html to check out the necessary toolset in the `tools/` subdirectory and build the HTML output files. To view the generated HTML, point your favorite browser at the top-level index `build/html/index.html` after running "make". To use a Python interpreter that's not called ``python``, use the standard way to set Makefile variables, using e.g. :: make html PYTHON=/usr/bin/python2.5 Available make targets are: * "html", which builds standalone HTML files for offline viewing. * "web", which builds files usable with the Sphinx.web application (used to serve the docs online at http://docs.python.org/). * "htmlhelp", which builds HTML files and a HTML Help project file usable to convert them into a single Compiled HTML (.chm) file -- these are popular under Microsoft Windows, but very handy on every platform. To create the CHM file, you need to run the Microsoft HTML Help Workshop over the generated project (.hhp) file. A "make update" updates the Subversion checkouts in `tools/`. Without make ------------ You'll need to checkout the Sphinx package to the `tools/` directory:: svn co http://svn.python.org/projects/doctools/trunk/sphinx tools/sphinx Then, you need to install Docutils 0.4 (the SVN snapshot won't work), either by checking it out via :: svn co http://svn.python.org/projects/external/docutils-0.4/docutils tools/docutils or by installing it from http://docutils.sf.net/. You can optionally also install Pygments, either as a checkout via :: svn co http://svn.python.org/projects/external/Pygments-0.9/pygments tools/pygments or from PyPI at http://pypi.python.org/pypi/Pygments. Then, make an output directory, e.g. under `build/`, and run :: python tools/sphinx-build.py -b<builder> . build/<outputdirectory> where `<builder>` is one of html, web or htmlhelp (for explanations see the make targets above). Contributing ============ For bugs in the content, the online version at http://docs.python.org/ has a "suggest change" facility that can be used to correct errors in the source text and submit them as a patch to the maintainers. Bugs in the toolset should be reported in the Python bug tracker at http://bugs.python.org/. You can also send a mail to the Python Documentation Team at docs@python.org, and we will process your request as soon as possible. If you want to help the Documentation Team, you are always welcome. Just send a mail to docs@python.org.
