Neil Schemenauer 4e3363e884 Warn about creating global variables by __setattr__ that shadow builtin
names.  Unfortunately, this is not bulletproof since the module
dictionary can be modified directly.

Gustavo Niemeyer 9556fba685 - urllib2.py now knows how to order proxy classes, so the user doesn't
have to insert it in front of other classes, nor do dirty tricks like
  inserting a "dummy" HTTPHandler after a ProxyHandler when building an
  opener with proxy support.

Tim Peters 50d8b8b6ae Fleshed out WeakKeyDictionary.__delitem__ NEWS to cover issues raised on
Python-Dev.  Fixed typos in test comments.  Added some trivial new test
guts to show the parallelism (now) among __delitem__, __setitem__ and
__getitem__ wrt error conditions.

Still a bugfix candidate for 2.2.3 final, but waiting for Fred to get a
chance to chime in.

Tim Peters 886128f4f8 SF 742860: WeakKeyDictionary __delitem__ uses iterkeys
Someone review this, please!  Final releases are getting close, Fred
(the weakref guy) won't be around until Tuesday, and the pre-patch
code can indeed raise spurious RuntimeErrors in the presence of
threads or mutating comparison functions.

See the bug report for my confusions:  I can't see any reason for why
__delitem__ iterated over the keys.  The new one-liner implementation
is much faster, can't raise RuntimeError, and should be better-behaved
in all respects wrt threads.

New tests test_weak_keyed_bad_delitem and
test_weak_keyed_cascading_deletes fail before this patch.

Bugfix candidate for 2.2.3 too, if someone else agrees with this patch.

Tim Peters e87568dd9a SF bug 705231: Assertion failed, python aborts.
float_pow():  Don't let the platform pow() raise -1.0 to an integer power
anymore; at least glibc gets it wrong in some cases.  Note that
math.pow() will continue to deliver wrong (but platform-native) results
in such cases.

Tim Peters 3cfe75470d PyType_Ready(): Complain if the type is a base type, and gc'able, and
tp_free is NULL or PyObject_Del at the end.  Because it's a base type
it must call tp_free in its dealloc function, and because it's gc'able
it must not call PyObject_Del.

inherit_slots():  Don't inherit tp_free unless the type and its base
agree about whether they're gc'able.  If the type is gc'able and the
base is not, and the base uses the default PyObject_Del for its
tp_free, give the type PyObject_GC_Del for its tp_free (the appropriate
default for a gc'able type).

cPickle.c:  The Pickler and Unpickler types claim to be base classes
and gc'able, but their dealloc functions didn't call tp_free.
Repaired that.  Also call PyType_Ready() on these typeobjects, so
that the correct (PyObject_GC_Del) default memory-freeing function
gets plugged into these types' tp_free slots.

Raymond Hettinger 22952a3efc SF bug 735293: Command line timeit.py sets sys.path badly
Paul Moore's patch to have timeit.py check the current directory for
imports (instead of the directory for Lib/timeit.py).

Walter Dörwald 9e46abed50 Fix array.array.insert(), so that it treats negative indices as
being relative to the end of the array, just like list.insert() does.
This closes SF bug #739313.

Tim Peters b0c854d6a7 datetime.timedelta is now subclassable in Python. The new test shows
one good use:  a subclass adding a method to express the duration as
a number of hours (or minutes, or whatever else you want to add).  The
native breakdown into days+seconds+us is often clumsy.  Incidentally
moved a large chunk of object-initialization code closer to the top of
the file, to avoid worse forward-reference trickery.

Guido van Rossum fa19f7c20d More fixes according to SF 549151:
- When redirecting, always use GET.  This is common practice and
  more-or-less sanctioned by the HTTP standard.

- Add a handler for 307 redirection, which becomes an error for POST,
  but a regular redirect for GET and HEAD.

Tim Peters c4607dadce Leading "C:" no longer hardcoded in the default installation directory.
After removing that, two testers on machines where C: is not the system
drive reported that the installer suggested their system drive instead
of C:, and that's what they wanted it to do.

Raymond Hettinger 686b14d7ad SF bug #730296: Unexpected Changes in list Iterator
Reverted a Py2.3b1 change to iterator in subclasses of list and tuple.
They had been changed to use __getitem__ whenever it had been overriden
in the subclass.

This caused some usabilty and performance problems.  Also, it was
inconsistent with the rest of python where many container methods
access the underlying object directly without first checking for
an overridden getter.  Users needing a change in iterator behavior
should override it directly.

Guido van Rossum e7adda9035 Move socket news to 2.3b1 section! And mention has_ipv6. 2003-04-25 05:52:37 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 47dfa4a89a Patch by Jp Calderone:
- The socket module now provides the functions inet_pton and inet_ntop
  for converting between string and packed representation of IP addresses.
  See SF patch #658327.

This still needs a bit of work in the doc area, because it is not
available on all platforms (especially not on Windows).

Raymond Hettinger f4cf76dd5e Revert the previous enhancement to the bytecode optimizer.
The additional code complexity and new NOP opcode were not worth it.

Raymond Hettinger 1d87786305 SF patch 557704: netrc module can't handle all passwords
Revised netrc.py to include the additional ascii punctuation
characters.  Omitted the other logic changes.  See
Lib/netrc.py 1.17.

Since this is more of a feature request than a bug,
including in Py2.3 but not recommending for backporting.

Tim Peters 11b2306960 Enable os.fsync() for Windows, mapping it to MS's _commit() there. The
docs here are best-guess:  the MS docs I could find weren't clear, and
some even claimed _commit() has no effect on Win32 systems (which is
easily shown to be false just by trying it).

Alex Martelli a70b19147f Adding new built-in function sum, with docs and tests. 2003-04-22 08:12:33 +00:00
Raymond Hettinger 060641d511 Improved the bytecode optimizer.
* Can now test for basic blocks.
* Optimize inverted comparisions.
* Optimize unary_not followed by a conditional jump.
* Added a new opcode, NOP, to keep code size constant.
* Applied NOP to previous transformations where appropriate.

Note, the NOP would not be necessary if other functions were
added to re-target jump addresses and update the co_lnotab mapping.
That would yield slightly faster and cleaner bytecode at the
expense of optimizer simplicity and of keeping it decoupled
from the line-numbering structure.
