Raymond Hettinger cb2da43db8 Extended tuple's C API to include a new function, PyTuple_Pack() that is
useful for rapidly building argument tuples without having to invoke the

Will backport.

Guido van Rossum 0fc8f00252 - pythunrun.c, Py_Finalize(): move the call to _Py_PrintReferences()
even farther down, to just before the call to
  _PyObject_DebugMallocStats().  This required the following changes:

- pystate.c, PyThreadState_GetDict(): changed not to raise an
  exception or issue a fatal error when no current thread state is
  available, but simply return NULL without raising an exception
  (ever).

- object.c, Py_ReprEnter(): when PyThreadState_GetDict() returns NULL,
  don't raise an exception but return 0.  This means that when
  printing a container that's recursive, printing will go on and on
  and on.  But that shouldn't happen in the case we care about (see
  first bullet).

- Updated Misc/NEWS and Doc/api/init.tex to reflect changes to
  PyThreadState_GetDict() definition.

Skip Montanaro 1ff49a7734 * Add description of PyInt_FromString.
* Correct description of PyFloat_FromString.  While ignored, the pend
  argument still has to be given.
* Typo in PyLong_FromString.
2003-02-03 05:13:24 +00:00
Skip Montanaro ae31e9b8c7 Add PyFloat_FromString. Left the char **pend argument out of the
description since while there, it is useless and ignored, according to Tim's
commen.  (PyInt_FromString is also not described, but PyLong_FromString is.
Is the former deprecated?)

Fred Drake f536827c65 Include version annotation for PyObject_Call(). 2003-01-25 07:48:13 +00:00
Walter Dörwald d9a6ad3beb Enhance issubclass() and PyObject_IsSubclass() so that a tuple is
supported as the second argument. This has the same meaning as
for isinstance(), i.e. issubclass(X, (A, B)) is equivalent
to issubclass(X, A) or issubclass(X, B). Compared to isinstance(),
this patch does not search the tuple recursively for classes, i.e.
any entry in the tuple that is not a class, will result in a
TypeError.

This closes SF patch #649608.

Walter Dörwald f171540ab8 Change int() so that passing a string, unicode, float or long argument
that is outside the integer range no longer raises OverflowError, but
returns a long object instead.

This fixes SF bug http://www.python.org/sf/635115

Fred Drake 674dae245a Clarify that PyImport_AddModule() and PyImport_ExecCodeModule() don't

Raymond Hettinger 513069028f Fix API typo. The write buffer is not const. Closes SF 606216. 2002-09-08 04:39:28 +00:00
Fred Drake 794643c314 Py_InitModule() and friends now accept NULL for the 'methods'
argument.  This makes sense now that extension types can support
__init__ directly rather than requiring function constructors.
