discussion on python-dev. 'from mod import *' is still banned except
at the module level.
Fix value for special NOOPT entry in symtable. Initialze to 0 instead
of None, so that later uses of PyInt_AS_LONG() are valid. (Bug
reported by Donn Cave.)
replace local REPR macros with PyObject_REPR in object.h
internal states. Put the old .seed() (which could only get at about
the square root of the # of possibilities) under the new name .whseed(),
for bit-level compatibility with older versions. This occurred to me
while reviewing effbot's book (he found himself stumbling over .seed()
more than once there ...).
I'm now checking it in. I need to write some documentation for it,
but I don't have time right now. Still, I wanted to get this into
2.1a2.
# Overview:
#
# This file implements the minimal SMTP protocol as defined in RFC 821. It
# has a hierarchy of classes which implement the backend functionality for the
# smtpd. A number of classes are provided:
#
# SMTPServer - the base class for the backend. Raises an UnimplementedError
# if you try to use it.
#
# DebuggingServer - simply prints each message it receives on stdout.
#
# PureProxy - Proxies all messages to a real smtpd which does final
# delivery. One known problem with this class is that it doesn't handle
# SMTP errors from the backend server at all. This should be fixed
# (contributions are welcome!).
#
# MailmanProxy - An experimental hack to work with GNU Mailman
# <www.list.org>. Using this server as your real incoming smtpd, your
# mailhost will automatically recognize and accept mail destined to Mailman
# lists when those lists are created. Every message not destined for a list
# gets forwarded to a real backend smtpd, as with PureProxy. Again, errors
# are not handled correctly yet.
- All constructors grow an optional argument `factory' which is a
callable used when new message instances are created by the next()
methods. Defaults to the rfc822.Message class.
- A new subclass of UnixMailbox is added, called PortableUnixMailbox.
It's identical to UnixMailbox, but uses a more portable test for
From_ delimiter lines. With PortableUnixMailbox, any line that
starts with "From " is considered a delimiter (this should really
check for two newlines before the F, but it doesn't.
* Removed func_hash and func_compare, so they can be treated as immutable
content-less objects (address hash and comparison)
* Added tests to that affect to test_funcattrs (also testing func_code
is writable)
* Reverse meaning of tests in test_opcodes which checked identical code
gets identical functions
prevent binding for str from masking use of builtin str in nested
function.
(This is the only case I found in the standard library where a local
shadows a global or builtin. There may be others, but the regression
test doesn't catch them.)
loaded - prevents second import later from succeeding spuriously - mostly of
use in regression tests where the module might get imported more than once
got broken). Also added new method .jumpahead(N). This finally gives us
a semi-decent answer to how Python's RNGs can be used safely and efficiently
in multithreaded programs (although it requires the user to use the new
machinery!).
functionality of, whrandom.py. Also closes all the "XXX" todos in
random.py. New frequently-requested functions/methods getstate() and
setstate(). All exported functions are now bound methods of a hidden
instance. Killed all unintended exports. Updated the docs.
FRED: The more I fiddle the docs, the less I understand the exact
intended use of the \var, \code, \method tags. Please review critically.
GUIDO: See email. I updated NEWS as if whrandom were deprecated; I
think it should be.
Lib/distutils/command/build_ext.py(build_ext.finalize_options): Add
Cygwin specific code to append Python's library directory to the
extension's list of library directories.
(build_ext.get_libraries): Add Cygwin specific code to append Python's
(import) library to the extension's list of libraries.
exportable module attributes (they're attributes on the IMAP class).
Fixed the case typo on Time2Internaldate.
Does anybody run the test suite any more? <wink>
complaints. The new version moves most of its initialization to
package load time; it's simpler, faster, smaller, and adds support for
Mozilla and Links. Interpretation of the BROWSER variable now works
and is documented. The open_new entry point and methods are marked
"deprecated; may be removed in 2.1".
no don't have to start with underscore.
- Add spaces after commas in argument lists.
- Only test dbhash if bsddb can be imported. (Wonder if there are
more like this?)
pythonrun.c: In Py_Finalize, don't reset the initialized flag until after
the exit funcs have run.
atexit.py: in _run_exitfuncs, mutate the list of pending calls in a
threadsafe way. This wasn't a contributor to bug 128475, it just burned
my eyeballs when looking at that bug.
added test script and expected output file as well
this closes patch 103297.
__all__ attributes will be added to other modules without first submitting
a patch, just adding the necessary line to the test script to verify
more-or-less correct implementation.
created by Andrew's setup.py script, *if* we're actually running from
the build directory. (The test for that: whether the sys.path[-1]
ends in "/Modules".)
This has one disadvantage: it imports a fair amount of code from the
distutils package, just in order to be able to calculate the correct
pathname. See if I care. :-)
(I realize that I didn't really test this, because all the tests
succeed, so verify() never raised an AssertionError -- but the test
suite still succeeds, so I'm not too worried.)
This patch adds support for Cygwin to util.get_platform(). A Cygwin
specific case is needed due to the format of Cygwin's uname command,
which contains '/' characters.
implementation details inside the ucnhash module.
also cleaned up the unicode copyright blurb a little; Secret Labs'
internal revision history isn't that interesting...
