From 1.5.2c1 to 1.5.2 (final)
|

=============================

Tue Apr 13 15:44:49 1999 Guido van Rossum <guido@eric.cnri.reston.va.us>
|
||||
|
||||
* PCbuild/python15.wse: Bump version to 1.5.2 (final)
|
||||
|
||||
* PCbuild/python15.dsp: Added shamodule.c
|
||||
|
||||
* PC/config.c: Added sha module!
|
||||
|
||||
* README, Include/patchlevel.h: Prepare for final release.
|
||||
|
||||
* Misc/ACKS:
|
||||
More (Cameron Laird is honorary; the others are 1.5.2c1 testers).
|
||||
|
||||
* Python/thread_solaris.h:
|
||||
While I can't really test this thoroughly, Pat Knight and the Solaris
|
||||
man pages suggest that the proper thing to do is to add THR_NEW_LWP to
|
||||
the flags on thr_create(), and that there really isn't a downside, so
|
||||
I'll do that.
|
||||
|
||||
* Misc/ACKS:
|
||||
Bunch of new names who helped iron out the last wrinkles of 1.5.2.
|
||||
|
||||
* PC/python_nt.rc:
|
||||
Bump the myusterious M$ version number from 1,5,2,1 to 1,5,2,3.
|
||||
(I can't even display this on NT, maybe Win/98 can?)
|
||||
|
||||
* Lib/pstats.py:
|
||||
Fix mysterious references to jprofile that were in the source since
|
||||
its creation. I'm assuming these were once valid references to "Jim
|
||||
Roskind's profile"...
|
||||
|
||||
* Lib/Attic/threading_api.py:
|
||||
Removed; since long subsumed in Doc/lib/libthreading.tex
|
||||
|
||||
* Modules/socketmodule.c:
|
||||
Put back __osf__ support for gethostbyname_r(); the real bug was that
|
||||
it was being used even without threads. This of course might be an
|
||||
all-platform problem so now we only use the _r variant when we are
|
||||
using threads.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
* Modules/cPickle.c:
|
||||
Fix accidentally reversed NULL test in load_mark(). Suggested by
|
||||
Tamito Kajiyama. (This caused a bug only on platforms where malloc(0)
|
||||
returns NULL.)
|
||||
|
||||
* README:
|
||||
Add note about popen2 problem on Linux noticed by Pablo Bleyer.
|
||||
|
||||
* README: Add note about -D_REENTRANT for HP-UX 10.20.
|
||||
|
||||
* Modules/Makefile.pre.in: 'clean' target should remove hassignal.
|
||||
|
||||
* PC/Attic/vc40.mak, PC/readme.txt:
|
||||
Remove all VC++ info (except VC 1.5) from readme.txt;
|
||||
remove the VC++ 4.0 project file; remove the unused _tkinter extern defs.
|
||||
|
||||
* README: Clarify PC build instructions (point to PCbuild).
|
||||
|
||||
* Modules/zlibmodule.c: Cast added by Jack Jansen (for Mac port).
|
||||
|
||||
* Lib/plat-sunos5/CDIO.py, Lib/plat-linux2/CDROM.py:
|
||||
Forgot to add this file. CDROM device parameters.
|
||||
|
||||
* Lib/gzip.py: Two different changes.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Jack Jansen reports that on the Mac, the time may be negative, and
|
||||
solves this by adding a write32u() function that writes an unsigned
|
||||
long.
|
||||
|
||||
2. On 64-bit platforms the CRC comparison fails; I've fixed this by
|
||||
casting both values to be compared to "unsigned long" i.e. modulo
|
||||
0x100000000L.

|
||||
|
||||
* PC/Attic/_tkinter.def: No longer needed.
|
||||
|
||||
* Misc/ACKS: Correct missed character in Andrew Dalke's name.
|
||||
|
||||
* README: Add DEC Ultrix notes (from Donn Cave's email).
|
||||
|
||||
* configure: The usual
|
||||
|
||||
* configure.in:
|
||||
Quote a bunch of shell variables used in test, related to long-long.
|
||||
|
||||
* Objects/fileobject.c, Modules/shamodule.c, Modules/regexpr.c:
|
||||
casts for picky compilers.
|
||||
|
||||
* Modules/socketmodule.c:
|
||||
3-arg gethostbyname_r doesn't really work on OSF/1.
|
||||
|
||||
* PC/vc15_w31/_.c, PC/vc15_lib/_.c, Tools/pynche/__init__.py:
|
||||
Avoid totally empty files.
|
||||
|
||||
Fri Apr 9 14:56:35 1999 Guido van Rossum <guido@eric.cnri.reston.va.us>
|
||||
|
||||
* Tools/scripts/fixps.py: Use re instead of regex.
|
||||
Don't rewrite the file in place.
|
||||
(Reported by Andy Dustman.)
|
||||
|
||||
* Lib/netrc.py, Lib/shlex.py: Get rid of #! line
|
||||
|
||||
Thu Apr 8 23:13:37 1999 Guido van Rossum <guido@eric.cnri.reston.va.us>
|
||||
|
||||
* PCbuild/python15.wse: Use the Tcl 8.0.5 installer.
|
||||
Add a variable %_TCL_% that makes it easier to switch to a different version.
|
||||
