Christian Heimes 5224d28d38 Patch #1759: Backport of PEP 3129 class decorators
with some help from Georg
2008-02-23 15:01:05 +00:00
Facundo Batista b12f0b581a Issue 1781. Now ConfigParser.add_section does not let you add a
DEFAULT section any more, because it duplicated sections with
the rest of the machinery. Thanks Tim Lesher and Manuel Kaufmann.
2008-02-23 12:46:10 +00:00
Facundo Batista fc2d01032f Issue 1881. Increased the stack limit from 500 to 1500. Also added
a test for this (and because of this test you'll see in stderr a
message that parser.c sends before raising MemoryError).
Thanks Ralf Schmitt.

Guido van Rossum 8bc0965adf Removed uses of dict.has_key() from distutils, and uses of
callable() from copy_reg.py, so the interpreter now starts up
without warnings when '-3' is given.  More work like this needs to
be done in the rest of the stdlib.

Guido van Rossum b5e2684a1a Remove news about float repr() -- issue 1580 is still in limbo. 2008-02-21 17:46:16 +00:00
Eric Smith 7ef40bf9c7 Trim leading zeros from a floating point exponent, per C99. See issue 1600. As far as I know, this only affects Windows. Add float type 'n' to PyOS_ascii_formatd (see PEP 3101 for 'n' description). 2008-02-20 23:34:22 +00:00
Eric Smith 5a3c135e17 Added PEP 3101. 2008-02-19 13:21:56 +00:00

2008-02-06 22:10:50 +00:00
Christian Heimes 5b970ad483 Unified naming convention for free lists and their limits. All free lists
in Object/ are named ``free_list``, the counter ``numfree`` and the upper
limit is a macro ``PyName_MAXFREELIST`` inside an #ifndef block.

The chances should make it easier to adjust Python for platforms with
less memory, e.g. mobile phones.

  the file as a script with an '-r' argument.

2008-02-05 11:51:40 +00:00
Amaury Forgeot d'Arc 6fd03bb607 #1750076: Debugger did not step on every iteration of a while statement.
The mapping between bytecode offsets and source lines (lnotab) did not contain
an entry for the beginning of the loop.

Now it does, and the lnotab can be a bit larger:
in particular, several statements on the same line generate several entries.
However, this does not bother the settrace function, which will trigger only
one 'line' event.

The lnotab seems to be exactly the same as with python2.4.

Amaury Forgeot d'Arc 578a8caf43 Correct quotes in NEWS file 2008-02-04 20:53:14 +00:00
Christian Heimes 422051a367 Patch #1953
I implemented the function sys._compact_freelists() and C API functions PyInt_/PyFloat_CompactFreeList() to compact the pre-allocated blocks of ints and floats. They allow the user to reduce the memory usage of a Python process that deals with lots of numbers.
The patch also renames sys._cleartypecache to sys._clear_type_cache

Amaury Forgeot d'Arc cab3d98ca1 Ensure that PySet_Add() operates on a newly created frozenset, like PyTuple_SetItem does.

2008-01-26 14:03:47 +00:00
Christian Heimes 7f39c9fcbb Backport of several functions from Python 3.0 to 2.6 including PyUnicode_FromString, PyUnicode_Format and PyLong_From/AsSsize_t. The functions are partly required for the backport of the bytearray type and _fileio module. They should also make it easier to port C to 3.0.
First chapter of the Python 3.0 io framework back port: _fileio
The next step depends on a working bytearray type which itself depends on a backport of the nwe buffer API.

Facundo Batista 4473d225a8 Issue 846388. Adds a call to PyErr_CheckSignals to
SRE_MATCH so that signal handlers can be invoked during
long regular expression matches.  It also adds a new
error return value indicating that an exception
occurred in a signal handler during the match, allowing
exceptions in the signal handler to propagate up to the
main loop.  Thanks Josh Hoyt and Ralf Schmitt.

Amaury Forgeot d'Arc e0b7695286 Partial port of r59682 from py3k.
On Windows, when import fails to load a dll module, the message says
"error code 193" instead of a more informative text.

It turns out that FormatMessage needs additional parameters for some error codes.
For example: 193 means "%1 is not a valid Win32 application".
Since it is impossible to know which parameter to pass, we use
FORMAT_MESSAGE_IGNORE_INSERTS to get the raw message, which is still better
than the number.

Christian Heimes 1beea3be3e Issue #1726: Remove Python/atof.c from PCBuild/pythoncore.vcproj 2008-01-03 15:41:30 +00:00
Jeffrey Yasskin 2f3c16be73 Backport PEP 3141 from the py3k branch to the trunk. This includes r50877 (just
the complex_pow part), r56649, r56652, r56715, r57296, r57302, r57359, r57361,
r57372, r57738, r57739, r58017, r58039, r58040, and r59390, and new
documentation. The only significant difference is that round(x) returns a float
to preserve backward-compatibility. See http://bugs.python.org/issue1689.

Christian Heimes d9fbab2621 Removed PCbuild8/ directory and added a new build directory for VS 2005
based on the VS 2008 build directory to PC/VS8.0. The script
PCbuild/vs8to9.py was added to sync changes from PCbuild to PC/VS8.0.

Kristjan, the initial creator of the PCbuild8 directory is fine with the replacement. I've moved the new version of the VS 2005 build directory next to the other legacy build directories. The new sync script is based on the work of wreck and syncs changes in the project, property and solution files.

Raymond Hettinger fd7ed407d7 Give meaning to the oparg for BUILD_MAP: estimated size of the dictionary.
Allows dictionaries to be pre-sized (upto 255 elements) saving time lost
to re-sizes with their attendant mallocs and re-insertions.

Has zero effect on small dictionaries (5 elements or fewer), a slight
benefit for dicts upto 22 elements (because they had to resize once
anyway), and more benefit for dicts upto 255 elements (saving multiple
resizes during the build-up and reducing the number of collisions on
the first insertions).  Beyond 255 elements, there is no addional benefit.
