Change type_get_doc (the get function for __doc__) to look in tp_dict
more often, and if it finds a descriptor in tp_dict, to call it (with
a NULL instance). This means you can add a __doc__ descriptor to a
new-style class that returns instance docs when called on an instance,
and class docs when called on a class -- or the same docs in either
case, but lazily computed.
I'll also check this into the 2.2 maintenance branch.
If a str or unicode method returns the original object,
make sure that for str and unicode subclasses the original
will not be returned.
This should prevent SF bug http://www.python.org/sf/460020
from reappearing.
PyNumber_InPlaceMultiply insisted on calling sq_inplace_repeat if it
existed, even if nb_inplace_multiply also existed and the arguments
weren't right for sq_inplace_repeat. Change this to only use
sq_inplace_repeat if nb_inplace_multiply isn't defined.
Bugfix candidate.
double call to AddressList.getaddrlist(), and /that/ always returns an
empty list for the second and subsequent calls.
Instead, instantiate an AddressList directly, and get the parsed
addresses out of the addresslist attribute.
which requires that if there are ehlo parameters returned with an ehlo
keyword (in the response to EHLO), the keyword and parameters must be
delimited by an ASCII space. Thus responses like
250-AUTH=LOGIN
should be ignored as non-conformant to the RFC (the `=' isn't allowed
in the ehlo keyword).
This is a bug fix candidate.
Add a method zfill to str, unicode and UserString and change
Lib/string.py accordingly.
This activates the zfill version in unicodeobject.c that was
commented out and implements the same in stringobject.c. It also
adds the test for unicode support in Lib/string.py back in and
uses repr() instead() of str() (as it was before Lib/string.py 1.62)
In DatagramRequestHandler.setup(), the wfile initialization should be
StringIO.StringIO(), not StringIO.StringIO(slf.packet).
Bugfix candidate (all the way back to Python 1.5.2 :-).
Highlights: import and friends will understand any of \r, \n and \r\n
as end of line. Python file input will do the same if you use mode 'U'.
Everything can be disabled by configuring with --without-universal-newlines.
See PEP278 for details.
Add optional arg to string methods strip(), lstrip(), rstrip().
The optional arg specifies characters to delete.
Also for UserString.
Still to do:
- Misc/NEWS
- LaTeX docs (I did the docstrings though)
- Unicode methods, and Unicode support in the string methods.
The test function's signature should be
test(methodname, input, output, *args)
but the output argument was omitted. This caused all tests to fail,
because the expected output was passed as the initial argument to the
method call. But because of the way the test works (it compares the
results for a regular string to the results for a UserString instance
with the same value, and it's OK if both raise the same exception) the
test never failed!
I've fixed this, and also cleaned up a few warts in the verbose
output. Finally, I've made it possible to run the test stand-alone in
verbose mode by passing -v as a command line argument.
Now, the test will report failure related to zfill. That's not my
fault, that's a legitimate problem: the string_tests.py file contains
a test for the zfill() method (just added) but this method is not
implemented. The responsible party will surely fix this soon now.
non-us-ascii character sets in headers and bodies. Some API changes
(with DeprecationWarnings for the old APIs). Better RFC-compliant
implementations of base64 and quoted-printable.
Updated test cases. Documentation updates to follow (after I finish
writing them ;).
