Neal Norwitz df4622690b urllib2_localnet says it leaks probably due to threads. So ignore it.
popen2 is also complaining probably for similar reasons.
make install always reports failure, so don't mail in this case.
2007-06-15 03:11:41 +00:00
Walter Dörwald 84a3efec37 Add T_PYSSIZET in structmember.h: This can be used for
Py_ssize_t members.

Simplify the implementation of UnicodeError objects:
start and end attributes are now stored directly as
Py_ssize_t members, which simplifies various get and
set functions.

Neal Norwitz 7dbd2a3720 Prevent expandtabs() on string and unicode objects from causing a segfault when
a large width is passed on 32-bit platforms.  Found by Google.

It would be good for people to review this especially carefully and verify
I don't have an off by one error and there is no other way to cause overflow.

Facundo Batista 10951d51e2 Added an optional timeout parameter to function urllib2.urlopen,
with tests in test_urllib2net.py (must have network resource
enabled to execute them). Also modified test_urllib2.py because
testing mock classes must take it into acount. Docs are also
updated.
2007-06-06 17:15:23 +00:00

Brett Cannon f7188cefb3 Make _strptime.TimeRE().pattern() use ``\s+`` for matching whitespace instead
of ``\s*``.  This prevents patterns from "stealing" bits from other patterns in
order to make a match work.

Closes bug #1730389.  Will be backported.
2007-06-03 23:13:41 +00:00

Neal Norwitz 4a700bb469 SF 1668596/1720897: distutils now copies data files
even if package_dir is empty.

This needs to be backported.  I'm too tired tonight.  It would be great
if someone backports this if the buildbots are ok with it.  Otherwise,
I will try to get to it tomorrow.

Neal Norwitz adf694bd95 Fix typo in doc 2007-05-29 07:51:39 +00:00
Lars Gustäbel a0fcb9384e Added errors argument to TarFile class that allows the user to
specify an error handling scheme for character conversion. Additional
scheme "utf-8" in read mode. Unicode input filenames are now
supported by design. The values of the pax_headers dictionary are now
limited to unicode objects.

Fixed: The prefix field is no longer used in PAX_FORMAT (in
conformance with POSIX).
Fixed: In read mode use a possible pax header size field.
Fixed: Strip trailing slashes from pax header name values.
Fixed: Give values in user-specified pax_headers precedence when
writing.

Added unicode tests. Added pax/regtype4 member to testtar.tar all
possible number fields in a pax header.

Added two chapters to the documentation about the different formats
tarfile.py supports and how unicode issues are handled.

Facundo Batista 711a54ebde Added an optional timeout parameter to urllib.ftpwrapper, with tests
(for this and a basic one, because there weren't any). Changed also

Brett Cannon d75f043c33 Remove the gopherlib module. It has been raising a DeprecationWarning since
Python 2.5.

Also remove gopher support from urllib/urllib2.  As both imported gopherlib the
usage of the support would have raised a DeprecationWarning.

Neal Norwitz d9841039db Don't ever report a failure when the sum of the reference count differences
are zero.  This should help reduce the false positives.

The message about references leaking is maintained to provide as much
info as possible rather than simply suppressing the message at the source.

2007-04-24 13:54:38 +00:00
Neal Norwitz 5d08bd7fb2 Add an optional address to copy the failure mails to.
Detect a conflict in the only file that should have outstanding changes
when this script is run.  This doesn't matter on the trunk, but does
when run on a branch.  Trunk always has the date set to today in
boilerplate.tex.  Each time a release is cut with a different date,
a conflict occurs.  (We could copy a known good version, but then
we would lose changes to this file.)

Matthias Klose e19e0c21ae - Fix an off-by-one bug in locale.strxfrm().
patch taken from http://bugs.debian.org/416934.
2007-04-03 04:35:59 +00:00
Brett Cannon c69066501b time.strptime's caching of its locale object was being recreated when the
locale changed but not used during the function call it was recreated during.

The test in this checkin is untested (OS X does not have the proper locale
support for me to test), although the fix for the bug this deals with
was tested by the OP (#1290505).  Once the buildbots verify the test at least
doesn't fail it becomes a backport candidate.
2007-04-01 18:47:27 +00:00
Neal Norwitz 8f35f44af3 SF #1685563, MSVCCompiler creates redundant and long PATH strings
If MSVCCompiler.initialize() was called multiple times, the path
would get duplicated.  On Windows, this is a problem because the
path is limited to 4k.  There's no benefit in adding a path multiple
times, so prevent that from occuring.  We also normalize the path
before checking for duplicates so things like /a and /a/ won't both
be stored.

Will backport.

Georg Brandl db84603760 Bug #1655392: don't add -L/usr/lib/pythonX.Y/config to the LDFLAGS

Žiga Seilnacht c64ad484a9 Patch #1489771: update syntax rules in Python Reference Manual.
Python 2.5 added support for explicit relative import statements and
yield expressions, which were missing in the manual.
Also fix grammar productions that used the names from the Grammar file,
markup that broke the generated grammar.txt, and wrap some lines that
broke the pdf output.  Will backport.

Neal Norwitz eff49dce56 Add Mark Dickinson for SF # 1675423. 2007-03-23 05:17:23 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 143b564059 - Bug #1683368: The object.__init__() and object.__new__() methods are
now stricter in rejecting excess arguments.  The only time when
  either allows excess arguments is when it is not overridden and the
  other one is.  For backwards compatibility, when both are
  overridden, it is a deprecation warning (for now; maybe a Py3k
  warning later).

When merging this into 3.0, the warnings should become errors.

Note: without the change to string.py, lots of spurious warnings happen.
What's going on there?

Neal Norwitz c990f6454f Try backing out 54407 to see if it corrects the problems on the Windows

Lars Gustäbel c64e40215d This is the implementation of POSIX.1-2001 (pax) format read/write
support.

The TarInfo class now contains all necessary logic to process and
create tar header data which has been moved there from the TarFile
class. The fromtarfile() method was added. The new path and linkpath
properties are aliases for the name and linkname attributes in
correspondence to the pax naming scheme.

The TarFile constructor and classmethods now accept a number of
keyword arguments which could only be set as attributes before (e.g.
dereference, ignore_zeros). The encoding and pax_headers arguments
were added for pax support. There is a new tarinfo keyword argument
that allows using subclassed TarInfo objects in TarFile.

The boolean TarFile.posix attribute is deprecated, because now three
tar formats are supported. Instead, the desired format for writing is
specified using the constants USTAR_FORMAT, GNU_FORMAT and PAX_FORMAT
as the format keyword argument. This change affects TarInfo.tobuf()
as well.

The test suite has been heavily reorganized and partially rewritten.
A new testtar.tar was added that contains sample data in many formats
from 4 different tar programs.

Some bugs and quirks that also have been fixed:
Directory names do no longer have a trailing slash in TarInfo.name or
TarFile.getnames().
Adding the same file twice does not create a hardlink file member.
The TarFile constructor does no longer need a name argument.
The TarFile._mode attribute was renamed to mode and contains either
'r', 'w' or 'a'.

Thomas Heller 2456a3c02a Bug #1651235: When a tuple was passed to a ctypes function call,

Collin Winter fb728de5f4 Add NEWS item for patch #1481079 (r54234). 2007-03-09 03:26:32 +00:00
Brett Cannon a30fcb4dae Introduce test.test_support.TransientResource. It's a context manager to
surround calls to resources that may or may not be available.  Specifying the
expected exception and attributes to be raised if the resource is not available
prevents overly broad catching of exceptions.

This is meant to help suppress spurious failures by raising
test.test_support.ResourceDenied if the exception matches.  It would probably
be good to go through the various network tests and surround the calls to catch
connection timeouts (as done with test_socket_ssl in this commit).

its name.

Brett Cannon 971a012ce1 Update the encoding package's search function to use absolute imports when
calling __import__.  This helps make the expected search locations for encoding
modules be more explicit.

One could use an explicit value for __path__ when making the call to __import__
to force the exact location searched for encodings.  This would give the most
strict search path possible if one is worried about malicious code being
imported.  The unfortunate side-effect of that is that if __path__ was modified
on 'encodings' on purpose in a safe way it would not be picked up in future
__import__ calls.

Brett Cannon 129bd52146 No more raising of string exceptions!

Brett Cannon 07e1db317d Fix time.strptime's %U support. Basically rewrote the algorithm to be more
generic so that one only has to shift certain values based on whether the week
was specified to start on Monday or Sunday.  Cut out a lot of edge case code
compared to the previous version.  Also broke algorithm out into its own
function (that is private to the module).

Fixes bug #1643943 (thanks Biran Nahas for the report).
