collector will be saved in gc.garbage. This is useful for debugging a
program that creates reference cycles.
- Fix else statements in gcmodule.c to conform to Python coding standards.
subset of Win32 ShellExecute's functionality. Guido wants this because
IDLE's Help -> Docs function currently crashes his machine because of a
conflict between his version of Norton AntiVirus (6.10.20) and MS's
_popen. Docs for startfile are being mailed to Fred (or just read the
docstring -- it tells the whole story).
Changed webbrowser.py to use os.startfile instead of os.popen on Windows.
Changed IDLE's EditorWindow.py to pass an absolute path for the docs
(hardcoding ShellExecute's "directory" arg to "." as used to be done let
IDLE work, but made the startfile command exceedingly obscure for other
uses -- the MS docs are terrible, of course, & still not sure I
understand it).
Note that Windows Python must link with shell32.lib now! That's where
ShellExecute lives.
data and default handlers -- a new reference was being passed to
Py_BuildValue() for the "O" format character; using "N" plugs the leak.
Fixed two other (minor) leaks that occurred on various error conditions.
Removed uses of the UNLESS macro, which makes code hard to read, and is
Evil.
I can't test this, so I'm just checking it in with blind faith in Andy.
I've tested that it doesn't broeak a non-Pth build on Linux.
Changes include:
- There's a --with-pth configure option.
- Instead of _GNU_PTH, we test for HAVE_PTH.
- Better signal handling.
- (The config.h.in file is regenerated in a slightly different order.)
Add contains() as alias for __contains__().
Make PyArg_ParseTuple() formats include the function name.
Based on patch by Denis S. Otkidach <ods@users.sourceforge.net>,
this closes SourceForge patch #101390.
reverse() didn't work at all due to bad arg check.
Fixed that.
Added Brad Chapman to ACKS file, as the proud new owner of two
implicitly copyrighted lines of Python source code <wink>.
Repaired buffer_info's total lack of arg-checking.
Replaced memmove by memcpy in reverse() guts, as memmove is
often slower and the memory areas are guaranteed disjoint.
Replaced poke-and-hope unchecked decl of tmp buffer size by
assert-checked larger tmp buffer.
Got rid of inconsistent spaces before open paren in docstrings.
Added reverse() sanity tests to test_array.py.
This fixes the first half of bug #110611: the immediate exit when ^C
is hit when readline and threads are configured.
Also added a new module variable, readline.library_version.
PyOS_setsig(), instead of directly calling signal() or sigaction().
This fixes the second half of bug #110611: the mysterious ignoring of
the first ^C when readline isn't used.
based on the available headers.
Update comments on the filename extensions used to reflect library
differences.
Added get() and setdefault() methods to the dbm object.
Added docstrings, convert all methods to PyArg_ParseTuple() so that
error messages will have the method names.
glob.glob("k:*py") (i.e., a raw drive letter + colon at the start) were
using the root of the drive rather than the expected Windows behavior
of using the drive's "current directory".
declarations, added some comments where I had to think too hard to
understand what was happening, and changed the primary internal get/set
functions to assert they're passed objects of the correct type instead of
doing runtime tests for that (it's an internal error that "should never
happen", so it's good enough to check it only in the debug build).
Py_FatalError() from module initialization functions. The importing
mechanism already checks for PyErr_Occurred() after module importation
and it Does The Right Thing.
Unfortunately, the following either were not compiled or tested by the
regression suite, due to issues with my development platform:
almodule.c
cdmodule.c
mpzmodule.c
puremodule.c
timingmodule.c
implementation. You don't want to know. I've asked Guido to give this
a critical review (we agreed on the approach, but the implementation
proved more ... interesting ... than anticipated). This will almost
certainly be the highlight of Mark Hammond's day <wink>.
Linux. Perhaps winaudio would be better, as it would offend both
parties equally.
tg@freebsd.org: allow this module to compile under FreeBSD
(he suggests voxwareaudio)
Update the build structures to automatically detect the presence of BSD db,
including the proper name of the header file to include. Has all the
expected niceties associated with yet-more-configure-options. ;)
This checkin includes changes for non-generated files only; subsequent
checkin will catch those.
This is part of SourceForge patch #101272.
with success. also, check return values from the mark functions.
this addresses (but doesn't really solve) bug #112693, and low-memory
problems reported by jack jansen.
PyRun_FileEx(). These are the same as their non-Ex counterparts but
have an extra argument, a flag telling them to close the file when
done.
Then this is used by Py_Main() and execfile() to close the file after
it is parsed but before it is executed.
Adding APIs seems strange given the feature freeze but it's the only
way I see to close the bug report without incompatible changes.
[ Bug #110616 ] source file stays open after parsing is done (PR#209)
Windows "inconsistent linkage" warnings at the same time. I agree
with Mark Hammond that the whole DL_IMPORT/DL_EXPORT macro system
needs an overhaul; this is just an expedient hack until then.
Added prototype to remove yet another warning.
Make a number of the handlers and helpers "static" since they are not
used in other C source files. This also reduces the number of warnings.
Make a lot of the code "more Python". (Need to get the style guide done!)
that this is not appropriate.
Made somewhat more robust in the face of reload() (exception is not
rebuilt, etc.).
Made the exception a class exception.
(64-bit AIX) This is because the RECURSION_LIMIT is too low. This patch lowers
to recusion limit to 7500 such that the recusion check fires before a segfault.
Fredrik suggested/approved the fix in private email, modulo sre's recusion
limit checking no being necessary when PyOS_CheckStack is implemented for
Windows.
Minor updates for BeOS R5.
Use of OSError in test.test_fork1 changed to TestSkipped, with corresponding
change in BeOS/README (by Fred).
This closes SourceForge patch #100978.
in binascii.c (only on platforms with signed chars -- although Py_CHARMASK
is documented as returning an int, it only does so on platforms with
signed chars).
commonly used functions to convert an arbitrary binary string into
a hexadecimal digit representation and back again. These are often
(and often differently) implemented in Python. Best to have one
common fast implementation. Specifically,
binascii_hexlify(): a.k.a. b2a_hex() to return the hex representation
of binary data.
binascii_unhexlify(): a.k.a. a2b_hex() to do the inverse conversion
(hex digits to binary data). The argument must have an even length,
and must contain only hex digits, otherwise a TypeError is raised.
after a brief conversation with TP. First, the return values of the
PyString_* function calls should be checked for errors. Second,
bit-manipulations should be used instead of division for spliting the
byte up into its 4 bit digits.
This is an enhancement to a prior patch (100941) ...
[T]his patch removes the risk of deadlock waiting for the child previously present in certain cases. It adds tracking of all file handles returned from an os.popen* call and only waits for the child process, returning the exit code, on the closure of the final file handle to that child.
and fwrite return size_t, so it is safer to cast up to the largest type for the
comparison. I believe the cast is required at all to remove compiler warnings.
(this should fix Sjoerd's xmllib problem)
-- added skip field to INFO header
-- changed compiler to generate charset INFO header
-- changed trace messages to support post-mortem analysis
