errors in some of the hash algorithms. For exmaple, in float_hash and
complex_hash a certain part of the value is not included in the hash
calculation. See Tim's, Guido's, and my discussion of this on
python-dev in May under the title "fix float_hash and complex_hash for
64-bit *nix"
(2) The hash algorithms that use pointers (e.g. func_hash, code_hash)
are universally not correct on Win64 (they assume that sizeof(long) ==
sizeof(void*))
As well, this patch significantly cleans up the hash code. It adds the
two function _Py_HashDouble and _PyHash_VoidPtr that the various
hashing routine are changed to use.
These help maintain the hash function invariant: (a==b) =>
(hash(a)==hash(b))) I have added Lib/test/test_hash.py and
Lib/test/output/test_hash to test this for some cases.
get_starttag_text(): New method.
Return the text of the most recently parsed start tag, from
the '<' to the '>' or '/'. Not really useful for structure
processing, but requested for Web-related use. May also be
useful for being able to re-generate the input from the parse
events, but there's no equivalent for end tags.
attrfind: Be a little more forgiving of unquoted attribute values.

words, there should be no more "empty" checkins.
- internal: some minor cleanups.
(test_sre still complains about split, but that's caused by
the group reset bug, not split itself)
- added more mark slots

Changed 'prune_file_list()' so it also prunes out RCS and CVS directories.
Added 'is_regex' parameter to 'select_pattern()', 'exclude_pattern()',
and 'translate_pattern()', so that you don't have to be constrained
by the simple shell-glob-like pattern language, and can escape into
full-blown regexes when needed. Currently this is only available
in code -- it's not exposed in the manifest template mini-language.
Added 'prune' option (controlled by --prune and --no-prune) to determine
whether we call 'prune_file_list()' or not -- it's true by default.
Fixed 'negative_opt' -- it was misnamed and not being seen by dist.py.
Added --no-defaults to the option table, so it's seen by FancyGetopt.
Testing: test_array.py was also extended to check that one can set the
full range of values for each of the integral signed and unsigned
array types.
This closes SourceForge patch #100506.
This patch adds the openpty() and forkpty() library calls to posixmodule.c,
when they are available on the target
system. (glibc-2.1-based Linux systems, FreeBSD and BSDI at least, probably
the other BSD-based systems as well.)
Lib/pty.py is also rewritten to use openpty when available, but falls
back to the old SGI method or the "manual" BSD open-a-pty
code. Openpty() is necessary to use the Unix98 ptys under Linux 2.2,
or when using non-standard tty names under (at least) BSDI, which is
why I needed it, myself ;-) forkpty() is included for symmetry.

methods (but not 'link_executable()', hmmm). Currently only used by
BCPPCompiler; it's a dummy parameter for UnixCCompiler and MSVCCompiler.
Also added 'bcpp' to compiler table used by 'new_compiler()'.
Two major points:
* lots of overlap with MSVCCompiler; the common code really should be
factored out into a base class, say WindowsCCompiler
* it doesn't work: weird problem spawning the linker (see comment for
details)
to 'msvc_prelink_hack()', adding the parameters that it actually needs,
and only calling it for MSVC compiler objects. Generally gave up on the
idea of a general "hook" mechanism: deleted the empty 'precompile_hook()'.
that a particular compiler system depends on. This consists of the
'set_executables()' and 'set_executable()' methods, and a few lines in
the constructor that expect implementation classes to provide an
'executables' attribute, which we use to initialize several instance
attributes. The default implementation is somewhat biased in favour of
a Unix/DOS "command-line" view of the world, but it shouldn't be too
hard to override this for operating systems with a more sophisticated
way of representing programs-to-execute.
meant playing along with the new "dictionary of executables" scheme
added to CCompiler by adding the 'executables' class attribute, and
changing all the compile/link/etc. methods to use the new attributes
(which encapsulate both the program to run and its standard arguments,
so it was a *little* bit more than just changing some names).

the ccompiler module, and also gets away from defining non-methods

These two fixes were approved by me.

There's a problem with the xmllib module when used with JPython. Specifically,
the JPython re module has trouble with the () characters in strings passed into

this patch adds a fast _flatten function to the _tkinter

this speeds up canvas operations like create_line and
create_polygon. for example, a create_line with 5000
vertices runs about 50 times faster with this patch in
place.
'remove_tree()' can cooperate with 'mkpath()' in the maintenance of
the PATH_CREATED cache: specifically, if a directory is created
with 'mkpath()', later removed with 'remove_tree()', and 'mkpath()'
is again requested to create it, then it would erroneously think
the directory already existed, because it was in the PATH_CREATED
cache. The patch (slightly tweaked by me) fixes that.
Fixed some tests to not cause the script to fail, but rather
output a warning (which then is caught by regrtest.py as wrong
output). This is needed to make test_unicode.py run through

template into a new method 'prune_file_list()', called from
'get_file_list()' rather than 'read_manifest()' -- this keeps
'read_manifest()' more general.
Deleted the redundant call to 'exclude_pattern()' in 'make_distribution()'

(only pruned the release tree, not the build tree) and in the wrong
place (the prune wouldn't be reflected in the manifest file).
directly printing to stdout. This was a bit more work than it sounds like
it should have been:
* turned 'select_pattern()' and 'exclude_pattern()' from functions into
methods, so they can refer to 'self' to access the method
* commented out the *other* 'exclude_pattern()' method, which appears
to be vestigial code that was never cleaned up when the
'exclude_pattern()' function was created
* changed the one use of the old 'exclude_pattern()' method to use the
new 'exclude_pattern()' (same behaviour, slightly different args)
* some code and docstring reformatting
* and, of course, changed all the debugging prints to 'debug_print()' calls
Added/tweaked some regular ('self.announce()') output for better runtime
feedback.
Added support to set the default encoding of strings
at startup time to the values defined by the C locale.
The sys.setdefaultencoding() API is deleted after having
set up the encoding, so that user code cannot subsequentely
change the setting. This effectively means that only site.py
may alter the default setting.
values that "--foo" can take for various commands: eg. what formats for
"sdist" and "bdist", what compilers for "build_ext" and "build_clib".
I have *not* reviewed this patch; I'm checking it in as-is because it also
fixes a paper-bag-over-head bug in bdist.py, and because I won't have
time to review it properly for several days: so someone else can
test it for me, instead!
Look for personal config file in /home/greg on Windows, too: users will have
to set /home/greg to use this, so it's not something that many people will
use. But if python-dev comes up with the "right way" to divine a
home directory on Windows, we can use that to set /home/greg and poof! --
personal Distutils config files on Windows.
one doesn't *do* anything by default; it's just there as a conduit for data
(eg. include dirs, libraries) from the user to the "build" commands.
However, it provides a couple of Autoconf-ish methods ('try_compile()',
'try_link()', 'try_run()') that derived, per-distribution "config" commands
can use to poke around the target system and see what's available.
Initial experimenst with mxDateTime indicate that higher-level methods are
necessary: analogs of Autoconf's AC_CHECK_HEADER, AC_CHECK_LIB will be
needed too (and that's just to probe the C/C++ system: how to probe the
Python system is wide open, and someday we'll have to worry about probing a
Java system too).
Half-fixed RPM 2 compatibility:added 'rpm_base' option, which must be set
(to eg. /usr/src/redhat on a stock Red Hat system) if rpm2_mode is on.
Still not quite working, though.
Fills in question marks in help
Reads scripts in from files rather than strings
Adds RPM 2 compatibility mode (untested). Use of this mode requires that
--bdist-base be specified because bdist_rpm has no way of detecting where
RPM wants to find spec files and source files. An unmodified RedHat 5.0
system would require '--bdist-base=/usr/src/RedHat'. (You would also have
to be root.) If the rpmrc file has been modified to allow RPMs to be built
by normal users then --build-base would need to be changed accordingly.
Formats the changelog.
GPW: tweaked formatting, added some editorial comments.
prep/build/etc. scripts, doc files, dependency info) from a config file
rather than the dedicated "package_info" file. (The idea is that
developers will provide RPM-specific info in the "[bdist_rpm]" section of
setup.cfg, but of course it could also be supplied in the other config
files, on the command line, or in the setup script -- or any mix of the
above.)
Major changes:
* added a boatload of options to 'user_options' and
'initialize_options()': 'distribution_name', 'group', 'release', ...
* added 'finalize_package_data()', which takes the place of
'_get_package_data()' -- except it's called from 'finalize_options()',
not 'run()', so we have everything figured out before we actually run
the command
* added 'ensure_string()', 'ensure_string_list()', 'ensure_filename()';
these take the place of '_check_string()' and friends. (These actually
look like really useful type-checking methods that could come in handy
all over the Distutils; should consider moving them up to Command and
using them in other command classes' 'finalize_options()' method for
error-checking).
* various cleanup, commentary, and adaptation to the new way of
storing RPM info in '_make_spec_file()'
* added "--bdist-base" option to parameterize where we build
the RPM (comes from "bdist" by default: "build/bdist.<plat>")
* simplified/cleaned up some code in 'run()' in the process of
removing (most) hard-coded directory names
* if "--spec-only", drop spec file in "dist" rather than "redhat"
(directory name still hard-coded, though)
* use 'reinitialize_command()' to fetch the "sdist" object to
tweak before running "sdist" command
* use 'self.copy_file()' method rather than 'copy_file()' function
* cosmetic tweaks to comments, error messages
* help strings start with lowercase
* added affirmative version of '--no-clean' and '--no-rpm-opt-flags',
which are the default (thus the attributes that correspond to
the options are now 'clean' and 'use_rpm_opt_flags')
setup script) to be a list of Extension instances, rather than a list of of
(ext_name, build_info) tuples. This is mostly a simplification, but
'check_extension_list()' got a lot more complicated because of the need to
convert the old-style tuples to Extension instances.
Temporarily dropped support for defining/undefining macros in the
'extensions' list -- I want to change the interface, but haven't yet made
the required changes in CCompiler and friends to support this nicely.
Also neatened up the code that merges 'extra_compile_flags' and the CFLAGS
environment variable.
Added 'reinitialize_command()' -- lets us "push" option values in
a controlled, safe way; this is a small change to the code, but
a big change to the Distutils philosophy of passing option values
around. The preferred mode is still definitely to "pull" options
from another command (eg. "install" fetches the base build directory
from "build"), but it is now feasible to "push" options onto another
command, when you know what's best for it. One possible application
will be a "config" command, which pokes around the system and pushes
values (eg. include and library directories) onto the "build" command.
Added 'dump_option_dicts()' method (for debugging output).
* Command method 'find_peer()' -> 'get_finalized_command()'
* Command method 'run_peer()' -> 'run_command()'
Also deleted the 'get_command_option()' method from Command, and
fixed the one place where it was used (in "bdist_dumb").
directories after all is said and done, so we don't accidentally include
those files in the source distribution.
(This is the quick and easy way to fix this; Andrew says: "Changing
findall() looked like it was going to be messy, so I tried this instead.
The only problem is that redundant directory traversals are being done,
walking through build/ only to throw out all the files found at the end.").
* 'headers' entry added to all the install schemes
* '--install-headers' option added
* 'install_headers' added to 'sub_commands'
* added 'dist_name' to configuration variables (along with a few
others that seem handy: 'dist_version', 'dist_fullname', and
'py_version'
* in 'finalize_unix()', make sure 'install_headers' defined if
user specified 'install_base' and/or 'install_platbase'
* added 'has_headers()'
* a few other small changes
dictionaries in 'self.command_options' to 'get_option_dict()'.
Simplified code in 'parse_config_files()' and 'parse_command_line()'
accordingly.
Fixed code in constructor that processes the 'options' dictionary
from the setup script so it actually works: uses the new
'self.command_options' dictionary rather than creating command
objects and calling 'set_option()' on them.
attempt to verify the bold assertions in the documentation):
* entries for the "root package" in 'package_dir' didn't work --
fixed by improving the fall-through code in 'get_package_dir()'
* __init__.py files weren't installed when modules-in-packages
were listed individually (ie. in 'py_modules' in the setup script);
fixed by making 'check_package()' return the name of the __init__
file if it exists, and making 'find_modules()' add an entry to
the module list for __init__ if applicable
This patch adds a comment about quoting to the doc string,
and also checks that the 'flags' argument to the STORE command
is appropriately enclosed inside parentheses to avoid quoting.
* 'first_line_re' loosened up
* command description improved
* replaced '_copy_files()' and '_adjust_files()' with one method
that does everything, 'copy_scripts()' -- this should be more
efficient than Bastian's version, should behave better in
dry-run mode, and does timestamp dependency-checking
necessary to support it.
Details:
- build command additionally calls build_scripts
- build_scripts builds your scripts in 'build/scripts' and adjusts the
first line if it begins with "#!" and ends with "python", optionally
ending with commandline options (like -O, -t ...). Adjusting means we
write the current path to the Python interpreter in the first line.
- install_scripts copies the scripts to the install_scripts dir
- install_data copies your data_files in install_data. You can
supply individual directories for your data_files:
data_files = ['doc/info.txt', # copy this file in install_scripts dir
('testdata', ['a.dat', 'b.dat']), # copy these files in
# install_scripts/testdata
('/etc', ['packagerc']), # copy this in /etc. When --root is
# given, copy this in rootdir/etc
]
So you can use the --root option with absolute data paths.
often, ftp URLs hang in the final close. Further analysis suggests
that this is because the close hook in addclosehook() calls the hook
before acually closing the connection. The hook, in this case, waits
for the '226 Transfer complete' status from the server on the command
socket. However, more and more ftp servers only send this status when
the data socket has actually been closed -- causing a deadlock.
The fix is simple: in addclosehook.close(), call addbase.close()
*before* calling the closehook.
* 'get_command_obj()' now sets command attributes based on
the 'command_options' dictionary
* some typos fixed
* kludged 'parse_config_files()' to re-initialize the ConfigParser
instance after each file, so we know for sure which config
file each option comes form
* added lots of handy debugging output
command-line parsing code, splitting it up into several methods (new
methods: '_parse_command_opts()', '_show_help()') and making it put options
into the 'command_options' dictionary rather than instantiating command
objects and putting them there.
Lots of other little changes:
* merged 'find_command_class()' and 'create_command_obj()' and
called the result 'get_command_class()'
* renamed 'find_command_obj()' to 'get_command_obj()', and added
command object creation and maintenance of the command object cache to
its responsibilities (taken over from 'create_command_obj()')
* parse config files one-at-a-time, so we can keep track of the
filename for later error reporting
* tweaked some help messages
* fixed up many obsolete comments and docstrings

objects, it now has method names.
Added three methods, 'has_lib()', 'has_scripts()', and 'has_data()'
to determine if we need to run each of the three possible sub-commands.
Added 'get_sub_commands()' to take care of finding the methods named
in 'sub_commands', running them, and interpreting the results to
build a list of sub-commands that actually have to be run.
new flexibility, specifically the 'root' option. Now, we just use
"install" to do a fake installation into a temporary directory
(the 'bdist_dir' option, which derives from the 'bdist_base' option of
"bdist"), and then tar/zip up that directory. This means that dumb
built distributions are now relative to the root directory, rather than
the prefix or exec-prefix; this is probably a feature, but does make
them slightly less flexible.
top-level temporary directory for creating built distributions. (Won't
work yet, since the "build" command doesn't yet have a 'build_bdist'
option, and none of the "bdist" commands support it yet.)
- renamed '_copydata()' to 'copy_files()'
- changed it to record complete output filenames
- dropped '_outputdata()' in favour of much simpler 'get_outputs()'
adds the 'install_data' and 'install_scripts' commands; these two
are trivial thanks to the 'install_misc' base class in cmd.py.
(Minor tweaks and commentary by me; the code is untested so far.)
Also added creation of 'implib_dir', a temporary directory specific to
MSVC++ -- but I checked in two ways of fixing it (Lyle's and mine),
because I'm not sure which is right.
weird errors. (E.g. see thread "weird bug in test_winreg" in python-dev.)
Since it's actually useful to be able to re-run an individual test

modules whose full name starts with "test.".
Attached is a set of diffs for the .py compiler that adds support
for the new extended call syntax.
compiler/ast.py:
CallFunc node gets 2 new children to support extended call syntax -
"star_args" (for "*args") and "dstar_args" (for "**args")
compiler/pyassem.py
It appear that self.lnotab is supposed to be responsible for
tracking line numbers, but self.firstlineno was still hanging
around. Removed self.firstlineno completely. NOTE - I didnt
actually test that the generated code has the correct line numbers!!
Stack depth tracking appeared a little broken - the checks never
made it beyond the "self.patterns" check - thus, the custom methods
were never called! Fixed this.
(XXX Jeremy notes: I think this code is still broken because it
doesn't track stack effects across block bounaries.)
Added support for the new extended call syntax opcodes for depth
calculations.
compiler/pycodegen.py
Added support for the new extended call syntax opcodes.
compiler/transformer.py
Added support for the new extended call syntax.
search() functions didn't even work because _fixflags() isn't
idempotent. I'm adding another stop-gap measure so that you can at

telnetlib is unable to connect to a few telnet daemons because of
improper IAC handling, heres an attached oneliner to reject WILL
messages which will allow many more telnet daemons to work with it,

Added and documented the capability for shlex to handle lexical-level
inclusion and a stack of input sources. Also, the input stream member
is now documented, and the constructor takes an optional source-filename.
The class provides facilities to generate error messages that track

clue what to do for Mac OS.
in command-line options, and in two phases at that: first, we expand
'install_base' and 'install_platbase', and then the other 'install_*'
options. This lets us do tricky stuff like
install --prefix='/tmp$sys_prefix'
...oooh, neat.
Simplified 'select_scheme()' -- it's no longer responsible for expanding
config vars, tildes, etc.
Define installation-specific config vars in 'self.config_vars', rather than
in a local dictionary of one method. Also factored '_expand_attrs()' out
of 'expand_dirs()' and added 'expand_basedirs()'.
Added a bunch of debugging output so I (and others) can judge the
success of this crazy scheme through direct feedback.
I think that after this patch, all objects in the os module (with names
that don't start with "_") that can have docstrings, do, on Linux at
least.
Also fix a nit in one of my spawn* docstrings.
Adds bztar format to generate .tar.bz2 tarballs
Uses the -f argument to overright old tarballs automatically, I am
assuming that if the old tarball was wanted it would have been moved or
else the version number would have been changed.
Uses the -9 argument to bzip2 and gzip to use maximum
compression. Compress uses the maximum compression by default.
Tests for correct value for the 'compress' argument of make_tarball. This
is one less place for someone adding new compression programs to forget to
change.
This uses the same precautions when trying to find a temporary
directory as when the actual tempfile is created (using O_CREAT and
O_EXCL). On non-posix platforms, nothing is changed.

In the course of debugging this I also saw that cPickle is

to add the "display metadata" options: --name, --version, --author,
and so forth. Main changes:
* added 'display_options' class attribute to list all the "display only"
options (--help-commands plus the metadata options)
* added DistributionMetadata class as a place to put the actual
metadata information from the setup script (not to be confused with
the metadata display options); the logic dealing with metadata
(eg. return self.name or "UNKNOWN") is now in this class
* changed 'parse_command_line()' to use the new OO interface provided
by fancy_getopt, mainly so we can get at the original order of
options on the command line, so we can print multiple lines of
distribution meta-data in the order specified by the user
* added 'handle_display_options()' to handle display-only options
Also fixed some crufty old comments/docstrings.

getopt operation is done and get extra information about the parse,
in particular the original order of options seen on the command line.
But it's a big improvement and should make it a lot easier to add
functionality in the future.)
- DistutilsOptionError is now documented as it's actually used, ie.
to indicate bogus option values (usually user options, eg. from
the command-line)
- added DistutilsSetupError to indicate errors that definitely arise
in the setup script
- got rid of DistutilsValueError, and changed all usage of it to
either DistutilsSetupError or ValueError as appropriate
- simplified a bunch of option get/set methods in Command and

default list of files from () to None, and explicitly test for None

explicit empty list, it will read stdin instead of defaulting to

the options as files).
Lawrence adds: "I suspect that this is a safe change, because I can't

I agree.
Instead of assuming that the number process ids of the threads is the
same as the process id of the controlling process, use a copy of the
dictionary and check for changes in the process ids of the threads
from the thread's process ids in the parent process. This makes the
test make more sense on systems which assign a new pid to each thread

This doesn't fix the other problems evident with this test on Linux.

Unicode coercion are passed through (note that PyUnicode_Compare
does not implement the masking -- PyObject_Compare does this)
- contains now works for non-string types too; TypeErrors are
masked and 0 returned; all other errors are passed through
Better testing support for the standard codecs.
Misc minor enhancements, such as an alias dbcs for the mbcs codec.
Changes:
- PyLong_FromString() now applies the same error checks as
does PyInt_FromString(): trailing garbage is reported
as error and not longer silently ignored. The only characters
which may be trailing the digits are 'L' and 'l' -- these
are still silently ignored.
- string.ato?() now directly interface to int(), long() and
float(). The error strings are now a little different, but
the type still remains the same. These functions are now
ready to get declared obsolete ;-)
- PyNumber_Int() now also does a check for embedded NULL chars
in the input string; PyNumber_Long() already did this (and
still does)
Followed by:
Looks like I've gone a step too far there... (and test_contains.py
seem to have a bug too).
I've changed back to reporting all errors in PyUnicode_Contains()
and added a few more test cases to test_contains.py (plus corrected
the join() NameError).
This patch solves 2 problems of the os module.
1) Bug ID #50 (case-mismatch wiht "environ.get(..,..)" and "del environ[..]")
2) os.environ.update (dict) doesn't propagate changes to the 'real'
environment (i.e doesn't call putenv)
This patches also has minor changes specific for 1.6a
The string module isn't used anymore, instead the strings own methods are
used.
Unix From lines, change the UnixMailbox class so that _search_start()
positions the file *before* the Unix From line instead of after it;
change _search_end() to skip one line before looking for the next From
line. The rfc822.Message class automatically recognizes these Unix
From lines and squirrels them away in the 'unixfrom' instance variable.
- file_util.py: operations on single files
- dir_util.py: operations on whole directories or directory trees
- dep_util.py: simple timestamp-based dependency analysis
- archive_util.py: creation of archive (tar, zip, ...) files
The functions left in util.py are miscellany that don't fit in any of the
new files.
the Command class from core.py to cmd.py. No other code needs changing
though; distutils.core still provides the Command and Distribution classes,
although indirectly now.
HKEY_* and Reg* names once, rather than having near-duplicate code
in the two import attempts.
Also dropped the leading underscore on all the imported symbols,
as it's not appropriate (they're not local to this module).
* build to "Debug" or "Release" temp directory
* put linker turds (.lib and .exp files) in the build temp directory
* tack on "_d" to extensions built with debugging
* added 'get_ext_libname()' help in putting linker turds to temp dir
Also, moved the code that simplifies None to empty list for a bunch
of options to 'finalize_options()' instead of 'run()'.
Simplified 'Command.get_peer_option()' a tad -- just call 'find_peer()'
to get the peer command object.
Updated 'Command.copy_file()' to take a 'link' parameter, just like
'util.copy_file()' does now.
Added 'Command.make_archive()' to wrap 'util.make_archive()'.
Changes to 'copy_file()':
* added support for making hard links and symlinks
* noted that it silently clobbers existing files when copying, but
blows up if destination exists when linking -- hmmm...
* error message tweak
Added 'base_name' parameter to 'make_tarball()' and 'make_zipfile()'.
Added 'make_archive()' -- wrapper around 'make_tarball()' or
'make_zipfile()' to take care of the archive "root directory".
the command that actually creates "dumb" binary distributions, ie.
tarballs and zip files that you just unpack under <prefix> or <exec-prefix>.
Very limited, but it's a start.
Initial revision is pretty limited; it only knows how to generate "dumb"
binary distributions, i.e. a tarball on Unix and a zip file on Windows.
Also, due to limitations in the installation code, it only knows how to
distribute Python library code. But hey, it's a start.
provided by Distribution.
Cosmetic and error message tweaks.
Simplified 'make_release_tree()':
* extracted 'distutils.util.create_tree()'
* don't have to do hard-linking ourselves -- it's now handled by
'distutils.util.copy_file()' (although the detection of
whether hard linking is available still needs to be factored out)
Removed 'make_tarball()' and 'make_zipfile()' entirely -- their role
is now amply filled by 'distutils.util.make_archive()'.
Simplified 'make_distribution()':
* use Distribution's new 'get_full_name()' method
* use 'make_archive()' instead of if/elif/.../else on the archive format
If a non-tuple sequence is passed as the *arg, convert it to a tuple
before checking its length.
If named keyword arguments are used in combination with **kwargs, make
a copy of kwargs before inserting the new keys.
is responsible for installing all Python modules (pure and extensions).
Added 'get_outputs()' in preparation for the 'bdist' command, and
'_mutate_outputs()' to support 'get_outputs()'.
in a class attribute 'sub_commands', rather than hard-coded in 'run()'.
This should make it easier to subclass 'install', and also makes it
easier to keep 'run()' and the new 'get_outputs()' consistent.
Added 'get_outputs()' in preparation for the 'bdist' command.
Changed signature of 'build_extensions()': no longer takes the extension
list, but uses 'self.extensions' (just like 'get_outputs()' has to)
Moved call to 'check_extensions_list()' from 'run()' to 'build_extensions()',
again for consistency with 'get_outputs()'.
A host of improvements in preparation for the 'bdist' command:
- added 'get_outputs()' method (all the other improvements were to support
this addition)
- made 'find_package_modules()' and 'find_modules()' return similar
values (list of (package, module, module_filename) tuples)
- factored 'find_all_modules()' out of 'get_source_files()' (needed
by 'get_outputs()')
- factored 'get_module_outfile()' out of 'build_module()' (also needed
by 'get_outputs()')
- various little tweaks, improvements, comment/doc updates
executive summary:
Instead of typing 'apply(f, args, kwargs)' you can type 'f(*arg, **kwargs)'.
Some file-by-file details follow.
Grammar/Grammar:
simplify varargslist, replacing '*' '*' with '**'
add * & ** options to arglist
Include/opcode.h & Lib/dis.py:
define three new opcodes
CALL_FUNCTION_VAR
CALL_FUNCTION_KW
CALL_FUNCTION_VAR_KW
Python/ceval.c:
extend TypeError "keyword parameter redefined" message to include
the name of the offending keyword
reindent CALL_FUNCTION using four spaces
add handling of sequences and dictionaries using extend calls
fix function import_from to use PyErr_Format
The new filecmp module has an optional argument called use_statcache
which is documented as a true/false value, but used as an tuple index.
This patches replaces the tuple stuff with a good old if- statement,
and also removes a few other tuple pack/unpack constructs (if not
else, this saves a few bytes in the PYC file, and a few microseconds
when using the module ;-).
The attached patch set includes a workaround to get Python with
Unicode compile on BSDI 4.x (courtesy Thomas Wouters; the cause
is a bug in the BSDI wchar.h header file) and Python interfaces
for the MBCS codec donated by Mark Hammond.
Also included are some minor corrections w/r to the docs of
the new "es" and "es#" parser markers (use PyMem_Free() instead
of free(); thanks to Mark Hammond for finding these).
The unicodedata tests are now in a separate file
(test_unicodedata.py) to avoid problems if the module cannot
be found.
This patch fixes the "search" command in imaplib. The problem
was that a search can take multiple arguments, but as defined,
would only accept one.
I have also made changes to the test code at the end to be less
verbose by default, but to accept a verbosity argument.
The robotparser.py module currently lives in Tools/webchecker. In
preparation for its migration to Lib, I made the following changes:
* renamed the test() function _test
* corrected the URLs in _test() so they refer to actual documents
* added an "if __name__ == '__main__'" catcher to invoke _test()
when run as a main program
* added doc strings for the two main methods, parse and can_fetch
* replaced usage of regsub and regex with corresponding re code
we don't know what to do with it when we see it.
Call '_fix_object_args()' and/or '_fix_lib_args()' as appropriate, rather
than just '_fix_link_args()'.
Split '_fix_link_args()' up into '_fix_object_args()' (for use of
'create_static_lib() and link methods) and '_fix_lib_args()' (for the
link methods only).
Attached you find the latest update of the Unicode implementation.
The patch is against the current CVS version.
It includes the fix I posted yesterday for the core dump problem
in codecs.c (was introduced by my previous patch set -- sorry),
adds more tests for the codecs and two new parser markers
"es" and "es#".
these must come from the 'build' command. This means we no longer need
the misconceived 'set_peer_option()' method in Command and, more importantly,
sweeps away a bunch of potential future complexity to handle this tricky
case.
Fix 'Command.set_undefined_option()' to call 'ensure_ready()' rather
than 'finalize_options()' (which is only supposed to be called once,
which is the whole point of 'ensure_ready()').
Added comment to 'set_peer_option()' to remind myself that this method
cannot work and is fundamentally wrong-headed.
this command for a while; this implements roughly the plan cooked up by
Guido, Fred, and me. Seems to strike a nice balance between usability in
the common cases (just set one option), expandability for more types of
files to install in future, and customizability of installation
directories.
This revision isn't completely working: standard and alternate
installations work fine, but there are still some kinks to work out of
customized installations.
Attached you find an update of the Unicode implementation.
The patch is against the current CVS version. I would appreciate
if someone with CVS checkin permissions could check the changes
in.
The patch contains all bugs and patches sent this week and also
fixes a leak in the codecs code and a bug in the free list code
for Unicode objects (which only shows up when compiling Python
with Py_DEBUG; thanks to MarkH for spotting this one).
* improve help strings
* warn if user supplies non-existing directories
* don't try to 'remove_tree()' non-existing directories
* try to remove the build_base after cleanup (but don't do or say
anything if it fails -- this is just in case we made it empty)
option in the 'build_ext' command):
* in ccompiler.py: 'gen_lib_options()' now takes 'runtime_library_dirs'
parameter
* in unixccompiler.py and msvccompiler.py: now pass
'self.runtime_library_dirs' to 'gen_lib_options()', and define
'runtime_library_dir_option()' (although in msvccompiler.py it
blows up with a DistutilsPlatformError right now!)
code generator uses flowgraph as intermediate representation. the old
rep uses a list with explicit "StackRefs" to indicate the target
of jumps.
pyassem converts flowgraph to bytecode, breaks up individual steps of
generating bytecode
sure it's imported! ;)
Re-wrap the docstrings on get_python_inc() and get_python_lib() to be
closer to the "normal" Python style. See GvR's "style guide" on the
essays page (http://www.python.org/doc/essays/).
There should never be a space between a function name and the '(' that
opens the argument list (see the style guide again).
the platform-neutral include dir by default and with Mac support.
Added 'get_python_lib()', inspired by 'get_python_inc()'.
Rewrote 'get_config_h_filename()' and 'get_makefile_filename()'
in terms of 'get_python_inc()' and 'get_python_lib()'.
Changed '_init_nt()' and '_init_mac()' to use 'get_python_inc()' and
'get_python_lib()' for directory names.
When you set a breakpoint on a function with a multi-line argument
list, the breakpoint is actually set on the second line of the
arguments instead of the first line of the body. This patch fixes
that.
fix imports
remove parse functions and visitor code
track name change: Classdef to Class
add some comments and tweak order of visitXXX methods
get rid of if __name__ == "__main__ section
implement it (so far):
* moved filename generation methods into CCompiler base class,
driven by data supplied by implementation classes
* moved a bunch of common code from UnixCCompiler to convenience
methods in CCompiler
* overhauled MSVCCompiler's compile/link methods to look and act
as much as possible like UnixCCompiler's, in order to regularize
both interface and behaviour (especially by using those new
convenience methods)
* replaced build_lib.py with build_clib.py
* renamed the class in build_clib.py
* changed all references to 'build_lib' command in other command classes
when building extensions (uses build_lib's 'get_library_names()' method).
Ensure that the relative structure of source filenames is preserved in
the temporary build tree, eg. foo/bar.c compiles to
build/temp.<plat>/foo/bar.o.
Added 'build_clib' and 'build_temp' options (where to put C libraries
and where to put temporary compiler by-products, ie. object files).
Moved the call to 'check_library_list()' from 'run()' to 'finalize_options()'
-- that way, if we're going to crash we do so earlier, and we guarantee
that the library list is valid before we do anything (not just run).
Disallow directory separators in library names -- the compiled library
always goes right in 'build_clib'.
Added 'get_library_names()', so the "build_ext" command knows what
libraries to link every extension with.
filenames when constructing object filenames, even if output_dir given --
eg. "foo/bar.c" will compile to "foo/bar.o" without an output_dir, and to
"temp/foo/bar.o" if output_dir is "temp".
* 'build_dir' -> 'build_lib', which by default takes its value
straight from 'build_lib' in the 'build' command
* added 'build_temp' and 'inplace' options
* change 'build_extensions()' to put object files (compiler turds) in
'build_temp' dir
* complicated the name-of-extension-file shenanigans in
'build_extensions()' to support "in-place" extension building, i.e.
put the extension right into the source tree (handy for developers)
* added 'get_ext_fullname()', renamed 'extension_filename()' to
'get_ext_filename()', and tweaked the latter a bit -- all to support
the new filename shenanigans
This patch is re: Lucas.Dejonge@awtpl.com.au: [Python-bugs-list] imaplib -
not complying with RFC (PR#218)
Lucas de Jonge reported that the code in imaplib that detects a read-write
to read-only change doesn't comply with RFC 2060.
discussed on c.l.py last January. Specifically:
- more characters allowed in section & option names
- if '=' is used to separate the option & value, the value can be
followed by a comment of the form '\s;'
OptionMenu is modified. Somewhat rewritten and elaborated by myself.
class _setit: The constructor now takes an optional argument
`callback' and stashes this in a private variable. If set, the
__call__() method will invoke this callback after the variable's value
has changed. It will pass the callback the value, followed by any
args passed to __call__().
class OptionMenu: The constructor now takes keyword arguments, the
only one that's legally recognized is `command', which can be set to a
callback. This callback is invoked when the OptionMenu value is set.
Any other keyword argument throws a TclError.
A change in my last patch could, under certain circumstances,
cause a loop if the connection to the server dropped while
waiting for a command completion. I've changed the code to
re-raise the error after possible debugging output.

minor comment nits
old 'dist' command, but the code for dealing with manifests is completely
redone -- and renaming the command to 'sdist' is more symmetric with the
soon-to-exist 'bdist' command.
- removed now (happily) unused second arg
- need to verify results of [].index are correct; for building consts,
need to have same value and same type, e.g. 2 not the same as 2L
(big surprise). new solution is a little less hackish.
Code gen adds a TupleArg instance in the argument slot. The tuple arg
includes a copy of the names that it is responsble for binding. The
PyAssembler uses this information to calculate the correct argcount.
all fix this wacky case: del (a, ((b,), c)), d
which is the same as: del a, b, c, d
(Can't wait for Guido to tell me why.)
solution uses findOp which walks a tree to find out whether it
contains OP_ASSIGN or OP_DELETE or ...
Reasons for patches:
1st patch (15,21):
version change
2nd patch (66,72):
This is a patch I found in a Zope product release (quite by accident!).
It relaxes the conditions for matching a literal. I've looked over the
logic, and tested it, and it seems sensible.
3rd patch (117,123):
It appears the quoting matcher was too general, and that the IMAP4
protocol requires characters like ':' in commands to be unquoted.
(This is the patch already sent to Guido.)
4th patch (699,705):
Spelling correction in comment.
5th patch (753,761):
Another patch from the Zope product. It seems that some IMAP4 servers
produce unexpected responses in the middle of valid command/response
sequences. This patch ignores the unexpected responses in this
situation. (How I wish users would send me bug reports with examples!).
last 2 patches: (1015,1028) (1038,1044):
Minor improvements to test code.
- added a number of support methods to generate code just before the
body
- hack protocol for communicating number of args to PyAssembler
fix TryExcept generation for case where exception handler has no body
fix visitAssAttr
add comment about incomplete visitAssName
stop using the ExampleASTVisitor
change script invocation to accept a list of .py files (e.g. Lib/*.py)
named OPTIMIZED, which matches compile.c and makes more sense for
classes
revamp call signature for PythonVMCode.__init__; doesn't really matter
'cuz this code is going to be refactored out of existence
add generateClassCode and modify Func & Lambda generation
add support for nodes Classdef, Keyword,
fix CallFunc to generate right op arg when calling w/ keywords
add ugly hack to properly compute offsets when the same stack ref is
used multiple times
change resolution of local name ops (LOAD_FAST). i think it makes
sense now. if it is an argument or a local var name that it used, it
must be in varnames. if it is a local var name that is used, it must
also be in names
'get_msvc_paths()'.
Renamed '_do_SET()' to 'set_path_env_var()', tweaked docstring, and
cosmetically tweaked code.
Stylistic changes to MSVCCompiler constructor (variable renaming
and type consistency).
* tweak my docstrings
* fix None returns to empty list
* reshuffle responsibilities between '_find_exe()', '_find_SET()', and
the MSVCCompiler constructor -- now the constructor worries about
fetching the version list and determining the most recent one
* added "/W3" compile option
Also, I added/tweaked some docstrings.
NNTPError - derived from Exception, it's the base class for all
other exceptions in this module
NNTPReplyError - what used to be error_reply
NNTPTemporaryError - what used to be error_temp
NNTPPermanentError - what used to be error_perm
NNTPProtocolError - what used to be error_proto
NNTPDataError - what used to be error_data
All the old names are retained for backwards compatibility; they point
to the class that replaces them. Also, any code in this module that
raises an exception, now does so with the exception class.
NNTP.__init__(): Added a new optional argument `readermode', which is
a flag that defaults to false. When set to true, the "mode reader"
command is sent to the NNTP server before user authentication. Reader
mode is sometimes necessary if you are connecting to an NNTP server on
the local machine and intend to call reader-specific comamnds, such as
`group'. If you get unexpected NNTPPermanentErrors, you might need to
set readermode. Patch provided by Thomas Wouters (who include the
standard disclaimer on is patches@python.org submission), and inspired
by Jim Tittsler.
FUNCTION_NAMESPACE. initialize in __init__ and reset in
generateFunctionCode.
replace direct issue of STORE_FAST, STORE_GLOBAL, etc. with call to
storeName; same for loadName and deleteName
the new {store,load,delete}Name methods use the namespace attr and the
local variable stack to determine the correct bytecode to issue
* don't need to mention python<ver>.lib -- it's done by a pragma
* add debug flags for compile and link, and use them
* fix 'link_shared_library()' to pass everything to 'link_shared_object()'
* change filename when shared object with debug info (ugh)
* prints out examples of nodes that are handled by visitor. simply a
development convenience
remove NestedCodeGenerator -- it was bogus after all
replace with generateFunctionCode, a method to call to generate code
for a function instead of a top-level module
fix impl of visitDiscard (most pop stack)
emit lineno for pass
handle the following new node types: Import, From, Getattr, Subscript,
Slice, AssAttr, AssTuple, Mod, Not, And, Or, List
LocalNameFinder: remove names declared as globals for locals
PythonVMCode: pass arg names to constructor, force varnames to contain
them all (even if they aren't referenced)
add -q option on command line to disable stdout
someone who knows Windows/MSVC++ to come along and add the right flags.
Comment noting that 'link_static_lib()' signature is inconsistent with
the other compiler classes (uh-oh!)
VERBOSE setting for the ASTVisitor
add getopt handling for one or more -v args
rename ForwardRef to StackRef, because it isn't necessarily directional
CodeGenerator:
* add assertStackEmpty method. prints warning if stack is not empty
when it should be
* define methods for AssName, UNARY_*, For
PythonVMCode:
* fix mix up between hasjrel and hasjabs for address calculation
language.
CodeGenerator:
* modify to track stack depth
* add emit method that call's PythonVMCode's makeCodeObject
* thread filenames through in hackish way
* set flags for code objects for modules and functions
XXX the docs for the flags seem out of date and/or incomplete
PythonVMCode:
* add doc string describing the elements of a real code object
LineAddrTable:
* creates an lnotab (no quite correctly though)
handle most of the language syntax yet)
create NestedCodeGenerator used to generator the separate code object
that needs to be passed as an argument to MAKE_FUNCTION when a def
stmt is found (probably useful for class too)
change CodeGenerator.visitFunction to use the NestedCG
add CompiledModule class to handle creation of .pyc (pretty minimal
for now)
add makeCodeObject method to PythonVMCode that replaces symbolic names
with indexes into slots of the code code. the design of this
class will probably need to be revised.
*this* set of patches is Ka-Ping's final sweep:
The attached patches update the standard library so that all modules
have docstrings beginning with one-line summaries.
A new docstring was added to formatter. The docstring for os.py
was updated to mention nt, os2, ce in addition to posix, dos, mac.

Here is batch 2, as a big collection of CVS context diffs.
Along with moving comments into docstrings, i've added a
couple of missing docstrings and attempted to make sure more
module docstrings begin with a one-line summary.
I did not add docstrings to the methods in profile.py for
fear of upsetting any careful optimizations there, though
i did move class documentation into class docstrings.
The convention i'm using is to leave credits/version/copyright
type of stuff in # comments, and move the rest of the descriptive
stuff about module usage into module docstrings. Hope this is
okay.

[some layout changes by GvR]
1. Comments at the beginning of the module, before
functions, and before classes have been turned
into docstrings.
2. Tabs are normalized to four spaces.
Also, removed the "remove" function from dircmp.py, which reimplements
list.remove() (it must have been very old).
Fixed a TypeError: not enough arguments; expected 4, got 3.
When authentication is needed, the default http_error_401 method calls
retry_http_basic_auth. The default version of that method expected a
data argument which wasn't provided, so now we provide the argument if
it was given and we also made the data argument optional.
Also changed other calls where data was optional to not pass data if
it was not passed to the calling method (in line with other similar
occurances).
'--help-commands' option).
Shuffled imports around in a few command modules to avoid expensive
up-front import of sysconfig (and resulting delays in generating list
of all commands).
* "--help" can now come either before or after particular commands
to get help on and can give help on multiple commands, eg.
"--help install dist" gives help on those two commands
* added "--help-commands" option, implemented by the 'print_commands()'
and 'print_command_list()' methods
Added 'link_static_lib()' method, and 'archiver' and 'archiver_options'
class attributes to support it.
Added 'link_executable()' method, and 'ld_exec' instance attribute
to support it.
'newer_group()' is now able to handle missing files, so we don't have
to kludge it by catching OSError when calling it.
'object_filenames()' and 'shared_object_filename()' now take 'keep_dir'
flag parameters.
'library_filename()' and 'shared_library_filename()' now respect
a directory component in the library name.
Various comment updates/deletions.
This patch changes the string-based exceptions to class-based
exceptions, so that you can fetch the unknown option as an
attribute. As far as I know, it is backward compatible.
[The new exception class is called GetoptError; the name error is an
alias for compatibility.]
I've changed the login command to force proper
quoting of the password argument. I've also added
some extra debugging code, which is removed when
__debug__ is false.
Added 'nuke_release_tree()' method to blow away the directory from
which the archive file(s) are created, and call it (conditionally)
from 'make_distribution()'.
Added 'keep_tree' option (false by default) to disable the call to
'nuke_release_tree()'.
install) the setup script itself.
Fixed 'build_module()' so we do *not* preserve file mode (which means
we can install read-only files, which makes the next installation
of this distribution fail -- at least under Unix); added a comment
explaining this.
consistency with 'build_ext' command option.
Changed 'compile()' and 'link_shared_object()' so 'include_dirs',
'libraries', and 'library_dirs' can be lists or tuples.
'generate_help()', 'wrap_text()' functions, and a little tiny test
of 'wrap_text()'.
Changed how caller states that one option is the boolean opposite of
another: added 'negative_opt' parameter to 'fancy_getopt()', and changed
to use it instead of parsing long option name.
want no output. Still no option for a happy medium though.
Added "--help" global option.
Changed 'parse_command_line()' to recognize help options (both for the
whole distribution and per-command), and to distinguish "regular run"
and "user asked for help" by returning false in the latter case.
Also in 'parse_command_line()', detect invalid command name on command
line by catching DistutilsModuleError.
a 'negative_opt' class attribute right after 'global_options'; changed
how we call 'fancy_getopt()' accordingly.
Initialize 'maintainer' and 'maintainer_email' attributes to Distribution
to avoid AttributeError when 'author' and 'author_email' not defined.
Initialize 'help' attribute in Command constructor (to avoid
AttributeError when user *doesn't* ask for help).
In 'setup()':
* show usage message before dying when we catch DistutilsArgError
* only run commands if 'parse_command_line()' returned true (that
way, we exit immediately when a help option is found)
* catch KeyboardInterrupt and IOError from running commands
Bulked up usage message to show --help options.

Bunch of little bug fixes that appeared in building non-packagized
distributions. Mainly:
- brain-slip typo in 'get_package_dir()'
- don't try to os.path.join() an empty path tuple -- it doesn't like it
- more type-safety in 'build_module()'
remove use of "os" module (bootstrap issues) and go to the underlying
platform-specific modules
fix problem in _compile() (trapped wrong error on permission issues)
add SysPathImporter and BuiltinImporter
put __file__ into modules imported from the filesystem. [backwards compat]
put __path__ into modules [backwards compat]
oops: it is doing this for all modules, not just packages.
comment and tweak to the PackageArchiveImporter
