getting displayed, due to a special case here whose purpose I didn't
understand. So just disabled the doc suppression here.
Another special case here skips the docs when picking apart a method
and finding that the im_func is also in the class __dict__ under
the same name. That one I understood. It has a curious consequence,
though, wrt inherited properties: a static class copies inherited stuff
into the inheriting class's dict, and that affects whether or not this
special case triggers. The upshoot is that pydoc doesn't show the
function docstrings of getter/setter/deleter functions of inherited
properties in the property section when the class is static, but does
when the class is dynamic (bring up Lib/test/pydocfodder.py under
GUI pydoc to see this).
Add raise_exception() to the _testcapi module. It isn't a test, but
the C API exists only to support test_exceptions. raise_exception()
takes two arguments -- an exception class and an integer specifying
how many arguments it should be called with.
test_exceptions uses BadException() to test the interpreter's behavior
when there is a problem instantiating the exception. test_capi1()
calls it with too many arguments. test_capi2() causes an exception to
be raised in the Python code of the constructor.
Also, add a clause to the big-if to handle message/delivery-status
content types. These create a message with subparts that are
Message instances, which best represent the header blocks of this
content type.
get_type(): Use a compiled regular expression, which can be shared.
_get_params_preserve(): A helper method which extracts the header's
parameter list preserving value quoting. I'm not sure that this
needs to be a public method. It's necessary because we want
get_param() and friends to return the unquoted parameter value,
however we want the quote-preserved form for set_boundary().
get_params(), get_param(), set_boundary(): Implement in terms of
_get_params_preserve().
walk(): Yield ourself first, then recurse over our subparts (if any).
Text.py and class Text => MIMEText.py and MIMEText
MessageRFC822.py and class MessageRFC822 => MIMEMessage.py and MIMEMessage
These are renamed so as to be more consistent; these are MIME specific
derived classes for when creating the object model out of whole cloth.
_handle_text(): If the payload is None, then just return (i.e. don't
write anything). Subparts of message/delivery-status types
will have this property since they are just blocks of headers.
Also, when raising the TypeError, include the type of the
payload in the error message.
_handle_multipart(), _handle_message(): When creating a clone of self,
pass in our _mangle_from_ and maxheaderlen flags so the clone
has the same behavior.
_handle_message_delivery_status(): New method to do the proper
printing of message/delivery-status type messages. These have
to be handled differently than other message/* types because
their payloads are subparts containing just blocks of headers.
In class DecodedGenerator:
_dispatch(): Skip over multipart/* messages since we don't care
about them, and don't want the non-text format to appear in
the printed results.

- Made cls.__module__ writable.
- Ensure that obj.__dict__ is returned as {}, not None, even upon first

(*) The pickling support is provisional for the following reasons:
- It doesn't support classes with __slots__.
- It relies on additional support in copy_reg.py: the C method
__reduce__, defined in the object class, really calls calling
copy_reg._reduce(obj). Eventually the Python code in copy_reg.py
needs to be migrated to C, but I'd like to experiment with the
Python implementation first. The _reduce() code also relies on an
additional helper function, _reconstructor(), defined in
copy_reg.py; this should also be reimplemented in C.

obvious reliable way to distinguish callable from non-callable attrs

same. I hope the test for structural equivalence is stringent enough.
It only allows the assignment if the old and new types:
- have the same basic size
- have the same item size
- have the same dict offset
- have the same weaklist offset
- have the same GC flag bit
- have a common base that is the same except for maybe the dict and
weaklist (which may have been added separately at the same offsets
in both types)
always been close to useless, because the <small>-ified docstrings
were too small to read, even after cranking up my default font size
just for pydoc. Now it reads fine under my defaults (as does most
of the web <0.5 wink>). If it's thought important to play tricks
with font size, tough, then someone should rework pydoc to use style
sheets, and (more) predictable percentage-of-default size controls.
+ Tried to ensure that all <dt> and <dd> tags are closed. I've read (but

properties: the docstring (if any) is displayed, and the getter, setter
and deleter (if any) functions are named. All that is shown indented
after the property name.
+ Text-mode pydoc class display now draws a horizontal line between
class attribute groups (similar to GUI mode -- while visually more
intrusive in text mode, it's still an improvement).
- property() now takes 4 keyword arguments: fget, fset, fdel, doc.
Note that the real purpose of the 'f' prefix is to make fdel fit in
('del' is a keyword, so can't used as a keyword argument name).
- These map to visible readonly attributes 'fget', 'fset', 'fdel',
and '__doc__' in the property object.
- fget/fset/fdel weren't discoverable from Python before.
- __doc__ is new, and allows to associate a docstring with a property.

versions raised an exception for; the original behavior has been restored
and augmented (the user can decide what to do if they care; the default is
to ignore it as done in early versions).
Use a new internal method, error(), consistently to raise parse errors;
the new base class also uses this.
Adjust the parse_comment() method to return the new offset into the buffer
instead of the number of characters scanned; this was the only helper
method that did it this way, so we have better consistency now. Required
to share the new base class.
This fixes SF bug #448482 and #453706.
and HTMLParser modules (and indirectly for the htmllib.HTMLParser class).
This has all the support for scanning over DOCTYPE declarations; it warrants
having a base class since this is a fair amount of tedious code (since it's
fairly strict), and should be in a separate module to avoid compiling many
REs that are not used (which would happen if this were placed in either then
sgmllib or HTMLParser module).
+ Minor code cleanup, generalization and simplification.
+ "Do something" to make the attribute aggregation more apparent:
- In text mode, stick a "* " at the front of subgroup header lines.
- In GUI mode, display a horizontal rule between subgroups.
For GUI mode, this is a huge improvement, at least under IE.
mode (identify the source class for class attrs; segregate attrs according
to source class, and whether class method, static method, property, plain
method, or data; display data attrs; display docstrings for data attrs
when possible).
Alas, this is mondo ugly, and I'm no HTML guy. Part of the problem is
that pydoc's GUI mode has always been ugly under IE, largely because
<small> under IE renders docstrings unreadably small (while sometimes
non-docstring text is painfully large). Another part is that these
segregated listings of attrs would *probably* look much better as bulleted
lists. Alas, when I tried that, the bullets all ended up on lines by
themselves, before the method names; this is apparently because pydoc
(ab?)uses definition lists for format effects, and at least under IE
if a definition list is the first chunk of a list item, it gets rendered
on a line after the <li> bullet.
An HTML wizard would certainly be welcomed here.
This almost entirely replaces how pydoc pumps out class docs, but only
in text mode (like help(whatever) from a Python shell), not in GUI mode.
A class C's attrs are now grouped by the class in which they're defined,
attrs defined by C first, then inherited attrs grouped by alphabetic order
of the defining classes' names.
Within each of those groups, the attrs are subgrouped according to whether
they're plain methods, class methods, static methods, properties, or data.
Note that pydoc never dumped class data attrs before. If a class data
attr is implemented via a data descriptor, the data docstring (if any)
is also displayed (e.g., file.softspace).
Within a subgroup, the attrs are listed alphabetically.
This is a friggin' mess, and there are bound to be glitches. Please
beat on it and complain! Here are three glitches:
1. __new__ gets classifed as 'data', for some reason. This will
have to get fixed in inspect.py, but since the latter is already
looking for any clue that something is a method, pydoc will
almost certainly not know what to do with it when its classification
changes.
2. properties are special-cased to death. Unlike any other kind of
function or method, they don't have a __name__ attr, so none of
pydoc's usual code can deal with them. Worse, the getter and
setter and del'er methods associated with a property don't appear
to be discoverable from Python, so there's really nothing I can
think of to do here beyond just listing their names.
Note that a property can't be given a docstring, either (or at least
I've been unable to sneak one in) -- perhaps the property()
constructor could take an optional doc argument?
3. In a nested-scopes world, pydoc still doesn't know anything about
nesting, so e.g. classes nested in functions are effectively invisible.
<http://sf.net/projects/mimelib>. There /are/ API differences between
mimelib and email, but most of the implementations are shared (except
where cool Py2.2 stuff like generators are used).
point out, pydoc doesn't tell you where class attributes were defined,
gets several new 2.2 features wrong, and isn't aware of some new features
checked in on Thursday <wink>. pydoc is hampered in part because
inspect.py has the same limitations. Alas, I can't think of a way to
fix this within the current architecture of inspect/pydoc: it's simply
not possible in 2.2 to figure out everything needed just from examining
the object you get back from class.attr. You also need the class
context, and the method resolution order, and tests against various things
that simply didn't exist before. OTOH, knowledge of how to do that is
getting quite complex, so doesn't belong in pydoc.
classify_class_attrs takes a different approach, analyzing all
the class attrs "at once", and returning the most interesting stuff for
each, all in one gulp. pydoc needs to be reworked to use this for
classes (instead of the current "filter dir(class) umpteen times against
assorted predicates" approach).
easy for 2.2 new-style classes, but trickier for classic classes, and
different approaches are needed "depending". The function will allow
later code to treat all flavors of classes uniformly.

There are good and bad reasons for this. The good reason is to support
dir() "like before" on objects of extension types that haven't migrated
to the class introspection API yet. The bad reason is that Python's own
method objects are such a type, and this is the quickest way to get their
im_self etc attrs to "show up" via dir(). It looks much messier to move
them to the new scheme, as their current getattr implementation presents
a view of their attrs that's a untion of their own attrs plus their
im_func's attrs. In particular, methodobject.__dict__ actually returns
methodobject.im_func.__dict__, and if that's important to preserve it
doesn't seem to fit the class introspection model at all.
Both int and long multiplication are changed to be more careful in
their assumptions about when one of the arguments is a sequence: the
assumption that at least one of the arguments must be an int (or long,
respectively) is still held, but the assumption that these don't smell
like sequences is no longer true: a subtype of int or long may well
have a sequence-repeat thingie!

keys are true strings -- no subclasses need apply. This may be debatable.
The problem is that a str subclass may very well want to override __eq__
and/or __hash__ (see the new example of case-insensitive strings in
test_descr), but go-fast shortcuts for strings are ubiquitous in our dicts
(and subclass overrides aren't even looked for then). Another go-fast
reason for the change is that PyCheck_StringExact() is a quicker test
than PyCheck_String(), and we make such a test on virtually every access
to every dict.
OTOH, a str subclass may also be perfectly happy using the base str eq
and hash, and this change slows them a lot. But those cases are still
hypothetical, while Python's own reliance on true-string dicts is not.

with the same value instead. This ensures that a string (or string
subclass) object's ob_sinterned pointer is always a str (or NULL), and
that the dict of interned strings only has strs as keys.

PySequence_Tuple(): if a tuple-like object isn't exactly a tuple, it's
not safe to return the object as-is -- make a new tuple of it instead.
Given an immutable type M, and an instance I of a subclass of M, the
constructor call M(I) was just returning I as-is; but it should return a
new instance of M. This fixes it for M in {int, long}. Strings, floats
and tuples remain to be done.
Added new macros PyInt_CheckExact and PyLong_CheckExact, to more easily
distinguish between "is" and "is a" (i.e., only an int passes
PyInt_CheckExact, while any sublass of int passes PyInt_Check).
Added private API function _PyLong_Copy.
If on Windows, we require the 'largefile' resource.
If not on Windows, we use a test that actually writes a byte beyond
the 2BG limit -- seeking alone is not sufficient, since on some
systems (e.g. Linux with glibc 2.2) the sytem call interface supports
large seek offsets but not all filesystem implementations do.
Note that on Windows, we do not use the write test: on Win2K, that
test can take a minute trying to zero all those blocks on disk, and on
Windows our code always supports large seek offsets (but again, not
all filesystems do). This may mean that on Win95, or on certain other
backward filesystems, test_largefile will *fail*.
horridly inefficient hack in regrtest's Compare class, but it's about as
clean as can be: regrtest has to set up the Compare instance before
importing a test module, and by the time the module *is* imported it's too
late to change that decision. The good news is that the more tests we
convert to unittest and doctest, the less the inefficiency here matters.
Even now there are few tests with large expected-output files (the new
cost here is a Python-level call per .write() when there's an expected-
output file).

This patch is similar to that proposed by Jeremy. The proposed patch altered
the interface of TestResult such that it would be passed the error
information as a string rather than an exc_info() tuple.
The implemented change leaves the interface untouched so that TestResults
are still passed the tracebacks, but stor them in stringified form for
later reporting.
Notes:
- Custom subclasses of TestResult written by users should be unaffected.
- The existing 'unittestgui.py' will still work with this module after the
change.
- Support can later be added to pop into the debugger when an error occurs;
this support should be added to a TestRunner rather than to TestCase itself,
which this change will enable.

1. That seeking beyond the end of a file increases the size of a file.
2. That files so extended are magically filled with null bytes.
I find no support for either in the C std, and #2 in particular turns out
not to be true on Win32 (you apparently see whatever trash happened to be
on disk). Left #1 intact, but changed the test to check only bytes it
explicitly wrote. Also fiddled the "expected" vs "got" failure reports
to consistently use repr (%r) -- they weren't readable otherwise.
Curious: the MS docs say stati64 etc are supported even on Win95, but

bag. It's clearly wrong for classic classes, at heart because a classic
class doesn't have a __class__ attribute, and I'm unclear on whether
that's feature or bug. I'll repair this once I find out (in the
meantime, dir() applied to classic classes won't find the base classes,
while dir() applied to a classic-class instance *will* find the base
classes but not *their* base classes).
Please give the new dir() a try and see whether you love it or hate it.
The new dir([]) behavior is something I could come to love. Here's
something to hate:
>>> class C:
... pass
...
>>> c = C()
>>> dir(c)
['__doc__', '__module__']
>>>
The idea that an instance has a __doc__ attribute is jarring (of course
it's really c.__class__.__doc__ == C.__doc__; likewise for __module__).
OTOH, the code already has too many special cases, and dir(x) doesn't
have a compelling or clear purpose when x isn't a module.
mapping object", in the same sense dict.update(x) requires of x (that x
has a keys() method and a getitem).
Questionable: The other type constructors accept a keyword argument, so I
did that here too (e.g., dictionary(mapping={1:2}) works). But type_call
doesn't pass the keyword args to the tp_new slot (it passes NULL), it only
passes them to the tp_init slot, so getting at them required adding a
tp_init slot to dicts. Looks like that makes the normal case (i.e., no
args at all) a little slower (the time it takes to call dict.tp_init and
have it figure out there's nothing to do).

As the doc string for _lookupName() explains:
This routine uses a list instead of a dictionary, because a
dictionary can't store two different keys if the keys have the
same value but different types, e.g. 2 and 2L. The compiler
must treat these two separately, so it does an explicit type
comparison before comparing the values.

operators is extended, the catchall else treats all new operators as
the last operator in the set of tests. Instead, raise an exception if
an unexpected operator occurs.
Use a dictionary instead of a list to map objects to their offsets in
a const/name tuple of a code object.
XXX The conversion is perhaps incomplete, in that we shouldn't have to
do the list2dict to start.
Add support for floor division (// and //=)
The implementation of getChildren() and getChildNodes() is intended to
be faster, because it avoids calling flatten() on every return value.
But it's not clear that it is a lot faster, because constructing a
tuple with just the right values ends up being slow. (Too many
attribute lookups probably.)
The ast.txt file is much more complicated, with funny characters at
the ends of names (*, &, !) to indicate the types of each child node.
The astgen script is also much more complex, making me wonder if it's
still useful.
64-bit INTs on 32-bit boxes (where they become longs). Also exploit that
int(str) and long(str) will ignore a trailing newline (saves creating a
new string at the Python level).
pickletester.py: Simulate reading a pickle produced by a 64-bit box.
varnames should list all the local variables (with arguments first).
The XXX_NAME ops typically occur at the module level and assignment
ops should create locals.
(Hard to believe these were never handled before)
Add misc.mangle() that mangles based on the rules in compile.c.
XXX Need to test the corner cases
Update CodeGenerator with a class_name attribute bound to None. If a
particular instance is created within a class scope, the instance's
class_name is bound to that class's name.
Add mangle() method to CodeGenerator that mangles if the class_name
has a class_name in it.
Modify the FunctionCodeGenerator family to handle an extra argument--
the class_name.
Wrap all name ops and attrnames in calls to self.mangle()
Make nested scopes enabled by default
Add is_constant_false() helper so that compiled code and symbols are
consistent with builtin compiler's handling of "if 0:"
Fix doc string handling to be consistent with recent change that
eliminates the doc string from the Module's node attribute.
Add fix to print handling from Evan & Shane.
Track change to visitor api by making "verbose" explicit.
Comment out setting CO_NESTED flag (it's unnecessary in 2.2).
Evan Simpson's fix. And his explanation:
If you defined two nested functions in a row that refer to the
same non-global variable, the second one will be generated as
though the variable were global.
The use of com_node() introduces a lot of extra stack frames, enough
to cause a stack overflow compiling test.test_parser with the standard
interpreter recursionlimit. The com_node() is a convenience function
that hides the dispatch details, but comes at a very high cost. It is
more efficient to dispatch directly in the callers. In these cases,
use lookup_node() and call the dispatched node directly.
Also handle yield_stmt in a way that will work with Python 2.1
(suggested by Shane Hathaway)
Remove _preorder as alias for dispatch and call dispatch directly.
Add an extra optional argument to walk()
XXX Also comment out some code that does debugging prints.
Modify rfc822.formatdate() to always generate English names,
regardless of locale. This is required by RFC 1123.
In open_local_file() of urllib and urllib2, use new formatdate() from
rfc822.
recent classobject.c change. When calling an unbound method with no
instances as first argument, the error message has changed. The
message now contains the class name, but the output text being
compared to is too generic, so skip printing it.
lambda (anonymous functions?), function, xrange, buffer, cell (need to
fill in), and (some) descriptor types.
Also added a new test case for testing repr truncation fixes.
modules and extensions on Windows is now $PREFIX/Lib/site-packages.
Includes backwards compatibility code for pre-2.2 Pythons. Contributed

- file URL now starts with "file://" (standard) rather than "file:"
- new optional argument 'context' to enable()
- repeated variable names don't have their values shown twice
- dotted attributes are shown; missing attributes handled reasonably
- highlight the whole logical line even if it has multiple physical lines
- use nice generator interface to tokenize
- formatting fixed so that it looks good in lynx, links, and w3m too
flag, which specifies external or resource intensive tests to
perform. This is used by test_largefile and test_socket_ssl.
-u/--use takes a comma separated list of flags, currently supported:
largefile, network.
usage(): New function. Note that the semantics of main() have changed
slightly; instead of returning an error code, it raises a
SystemExit (via sys.exit()) with the given error code.
main(): use_large_resources => use_resources
Also, added support for long-option alternative to the short
options.
_expectations: Added test_socket_ssl to the list of expectedly skipped
tests.
requires(): New function which can be used to `assert' that a specific
-u/--use resource flag is present. Raises a TestSkipped if not.
This is used in test_largefile and test_socket_ssl to enable
external or resource consumptive tests that are normally
disabled.
to stdout. Repaired by not printing at all except in verbose mode.
Made the test about 6x faster -- envelope analysis showed it took time
proportional to the square of the # of tasks. Now it's linear.
module has to deal with "class" HTML-as-deployed as well as XHTML, so we
cannot be as strict as XHTML allows.
This closes SF bug #453059, but uses a different fix than suggested in
the bug comments.
right way"). Fiddle __future__.py to use them.
Jeremy's pyassem.py may also want to use them (by-hand duplication of
magic numbers is brittle), but leaving that to his judgment.
Beef up __future__'s test to verify the exported feature names appear
correct.
For the HTTPS class (when available), ensure that the x509 certificate data
gets passed through to the HTTPSConnection class. Create a new
HTTPS.__init__ to do this, and refactor the HTTP.__init__ into a new _setup
method for both init's to call.
Note: this is solved differently from the patch, which advocated a new
**x509 parameter on the base HTTPConnection class. But that would open
HTTPConnection to arbitrary (ignored) parameters, so was not as desirable.
somewhat less horrid hack <wink>: if a module does
from __future__ import X
then the module dict D is left in a state such that (viewing X as a
string)
D[X] is getattr(__future__, X)
So by examining D for all the names of future features, and making that
test for each, we can make a darned good guess as to which future-features
were imported by the module. The appropriate flags are then sucked out
of the __future__ module, and passed on to compile()'s new optional
arguments (PEP 264).
Also gave doctest a meaningful __all__, removed the history of changes
(CVS serves that purpose now), and removed the __version__ vrbl (similarly;
before CVS, it was a reasonable clue, but not anymore).
builtin_eval wasn't merging in the compiler flags from the current frame;
I suppose we never noticed this before because future division is the
first future-feature that can affect expressions (nested_scopes and
generators had only statement-level effects).
specified in the uu header already exists. No additional
workaround is provided since out_file=pathname is a deprecated
interface, so it is better to simply pass a file-like object into
out_file anyway. This closes SF bug #438083.
Use isinstance() tests instead of type comparisons.
#449043 supporting __future__ in simulated shells
in support of PEP 264.
Much has changed from the patch version:
+ Repaired bad hex constant for nested_scopes.
+ Defined symbolic CO_xxx names so global search will find these uses.
+ Made the exported list of feature names explicit, instead of abusing
__all__ for this purpose (and redefined __all__ accordingly).
+ Added gross .compiler_flag verification to test___future__.py, and
reworked it a little to make use of the newly exported explicit list
of feature names.
is pickled as a global must now exist by the name under which it is
pickled, otherwise the pickling fails. Previously, such things would
fail on unpickling, or unpickle as the wrong global object. I'm
hoping that this won't break existing code that is playing tricks with
this.
I need a volunteer to do this for cPickle too.
- Do not compile unicodeobject, unicodectype, and unicodedata if Unicode is disabled
- check for Py_USING_UNICODE in all places that use Unicode functions
- disables unicode literals, and the builtin functions
- add the types.StringTypes list
- remove Unicode literals from most tests.
expression. This is needed for certain servers that (in violation of
the standard) don't return the parentheses in the response.
This fixes SF bug #441712 by Henrik Weber (not exactly using his
patch).
