Jeremy Hylton 6372fe1e40 Fix buffer overflow vulnerabilities in calculate_path(). Code used
copied strings from environment variables and argv[0] into
fixed-length buffers without checking their length.

Reported by Stan Bubrouski; advice on fix from John Viega.

Fred Drake d5fadf75e4 Rationalize use of limits.h, moving the inclusion to Python.h.
Add definitions of INT_MAX and LONG_MAX to pyport.h.
Remove includes of limits.h and conditional definitions of INT_MAX
and LONG_MAX elsewhere.

This closes SourceForge patch #101659 and bug #115323.

Jeremy Hylton 7198ba986d fix bug #114290: when interpreter's argv[0] has a relative path make
it absolute by joining it with getcwd result.  avoid including
    unnecessary ./ in path but do not test for ../ (more complicated)

Guido van Rossum b00adfbd83 Add missing prototypes for the benefit of SunOS 4.1.4 */ 2000-09-25 13:22:00 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 4b36e6bde1 For the benefit of SunOS 4.1.4, define MS_SYNC as 0 when it's
undefined.  ccording to MvL, this is safe: the MS_SYNC flag means that
msync() returns when all I/O operations are scheduled; without it, it
waits until they are complete, which is acceptable behavior.

Fredrik Lundh cfcea49218 unicode database compression, step 2:
- fixed attributions
- moved decomposition data to a separate table, in preparation
  for step 3 (which won't happen before 2.0 final, promise!)
- use relative paths in the generator script

I have a lot more stuff in the works for 2.1, but let's leave
that for another day...

Fredrik Lundh a4287c29b3 unicode database compression, step 1:
- use unidb compression for the unicodedata module.  on Windows,
  the new unidatabase module is 120k, down from nearly 600k.

Lars Gustäbel 4a30a07186 Added ExternalEntityParserCreate method (patch 101635). 2000-09-24 20:50:52 +00:00
Fred Drake 93adb6918c Change the name of the exception from "pyexpat.error" to
"xml.parsers.expat.error", so it will reflect the public name of the
exception rather than the internal name.

Also change some of the initialization to use the new PyModule_Add*()
convenience functions.

Neil Schemenauer 7760cff294 Fix some long/"l" int/"i" mismatches. Fixes bug #113779. 2000-09-22 22:35:36 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 7f58e2ec76 It's better to test for __hpux rather than __hppa, and hpux or hppa is
unnecessary.  Sez edg@SF
2000-09-22 17:26:14 +00:00
Guido van Rossum ecc23b07a9 Hopefully fix the problem with undeclared fdatasync() on HP-UX that
was reported twice so far.

Someone with access to HP-UX, please test this!  (Is '__hppa' or
'hppa' really the correct symbol to test for?)

Guido van Rossum ff555e383d Address Bug #115057: add a --with-suffix option to set the EXE
variable in the Makefiles from the configure script.  Usefil for
Cygwin and Mac OS X builds.

Neil Schemenauer 544de1effb - Add DEBUG_SAVEALL option. When enabled all garbage objects found by the
collector will be saved in gc.garbage.  This is useful for debugging a
  program that creates reference cycles.

- Fix else statements in gcmodule.c to conform to Python coding standards.

Fred Drake 676940b497 When PyInt_FromLong() returns NULL, you do not need to check
PyErr_Occurred().  Removed the extra test and setting of a
bogus exception.

Tim Peters f58a7aafea Implemented new os.startfile function, unique to Windows, exposing a
subset of Win32 ShellExecute's functionality.  Guido wants this because
IDLE's Help -> Docs function currently crashes his machine because of a
conflict between his version of Norton AntiVirus (6.10.20) and MS's
_popen.  Docs for startfile are being mailed to Fred (or just read the
docstring -- it tells the whole story).
Changed webbrowser.py to use os.startfile instead of os.popen on Windows.
Changed IDLE's EditorWindow.py to pass an absolute path for the docs
(hardcoding ShellExecute's "directory" arg to "." as used to be done let
IDLE work, but made the startfile command exceedingly obscure for other
uses -- the MS docs are terrible, of course, & still not sure I
understand it).
Note that Windows Python must link with shell32.lib now!  That's where
ShellExecute lives.

Tim Peters 954eef7e51 Fix for SF bug 115051: Dodgy use of PyTuple_SET_ITEM in pyexpat.c 2000-09-22 06:01:11 +00:00
Fred Drake 0f6dcb3f9e Remove debugging print. ;( 2000-09-22 04:49:50 +00:00
Marc-André Lemburg b425f5e35b Added a true unicode_internal_encode function and fixed the
unicode_internal_decode function to support Unicode objects
directly rather than by generating a copy of the object.
2000-09-21 21:09:45 +00:00
Fred Drake ca1f426080 Remove memory leaks of strings/Unicode objects passed into the character
data and default handlers -- a new reference was being passed to
Py_BuildValue() for the "O" format character; using "N" plugs the leak.

Fixed two other (minor) leaks that occurred on various error conditions.

Removed uses of the UNLESS macro, which makes code hard to read, and is
Evil.
2000-09-21 20:10:23 +00:00
Fredrik Lundh 5644b7fad1 - fixed yet another gcc -pedantic warning
- added experimental "expand" method to match objects
- don't use the buffer interface on unicode strings
2000-09-21 17:03:25 +00:00
Guido van Rossum cf06571a8b Use PyOS_setsig() instead of signal(). Also remove redundant spaces
from the FreeBSD code.

Guido van Rossum 9e8181b809 Make better use of GNU Pth -- patch by Andy Dustman.
I can't test this, so I'm just checking it in with blind faith in Andy.
I've tested that it doesn't broeak a non-Pth build on Linux.

Changes include:

- There's a --with-pth configure option.

- Instead of _GNU_PTH, we test for HAVE_PTH.

- Better signal handling.

- (The config.h.in file is regenerated in a slightly different order.)

Fred Drake ea4d3f0804 Add invert() and __invert__() as aliases for inv()/__inv__().
Add contains() as alias for __contains__().
Make PyArg_ParseTuple() formats include the function name.

Based on patch by Denis S. Otkidach <ods@users.sourceforge.net>,
this closes SourceForge patch #101390.

Tim Peters 077a11dd00 arraymodule: Fix SF bug 113960.
reverse() didn't work at all due to bad arg check.
    Fixed that.
    Added Brad Chapman to ACKS file, as the proud new owner of two
        implicitly copyrighted lines of Python source code <wink>.
    Repaired buffer_info's total lack of arg-checking.
    Replaced memmove by memcpy in reverse() guts, as memmove is
        often slower and the memory areas are guaranteed disjoint.
    Replaced poke-and-hope unchecked decl of tmp buffer size by
        assert-checked larger tmp buffer.
    Got rid of inconsistent spaces before open paren in docstrings.
    Added reverse() sanity tests to test_array.py.
2000-09-16 22:31:29 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 174efc9cdb Use PyOS_setsig() instead of directly calling signal() or sigaction().
This fixes the first half of bug #110611: the immediate exit when ^C
is hit when readline and threads are configured.

Also added a new module variable, readline.library_version.
2000-09-16 16:37:53 +00:00
Guido van Rossum d2cd7adf6f Use typedef PyOS_sighandler_t and APIs PyOS_getsig() and
PyOS_setsig(), instead of directly calling signal() or sigaction().

This fixes the second half of bug #110611: the mysterious ignoring of
the first ^C when readline isn't used.
2000-09-16 16:35:28 +00:00
Tim Peters 78fc0b57df Fixed legit gripe from c.l.py that math.fmod docs aren't confusing enough.
FRED, please check my monkey-see-monkey-do Tex fiddling!
2000-09-16 03:54:24 +00:00
Fred Drake 1ac526d7cc Add a constant "library" to the module which names the library used,
based on the available headers.

Update comments on the filename extensions used to reflect library
differences.

Added get() and setdefault() methods to the dbm object.

Added docstrings, convert all methods to PyArg_ParseTuple() so that
error messages will have the method names.
2000-09-15 21:35:14 +00:00
Fred Drake e64572bccb Some systems need -lucb to compile the mmap module. Add a comment to
this effect.

Martin v. Löwis 2af72d5d6d Use symbolic constants for allowable short ranges. 2000-09-15 08:10:33 +00:00
Tim Peters 0bb44a4a3a Closes SF bug 113894: on Windows, things like os.listdir("k:") and
glob.glob("k:*py") (i.e., a raw drive letter + colon at the start) were
using the root of the drive rather than the expected Windows behavior
of using the drive's "current directory".

Fred Drake ae90f8da24 Trent Mick points out that the BSD DB also provides an ndbm compatibility
layer.  If that is available, consider that as an option as well.

Fred Drake 0ac9b07963 Simplify some of the code. Use PyErr_Format() instead of sprintf(), etc.
Reduces lines of code and compiled object size.
2000-09-12 21:58:06 +00:00
Tim Peters bb307343e4 General cleanup in preparation for a bugfix: removed unused code, useless
declarations, added some comments where I had to think too hard to
understand what was happening, and changed the primary internal get/set
functions to assert they're passed objects of the correct type instead of
doing runtime tests for that (it's an internal error that "should never
happen", so it's good enough to check it only in the debug build).

Guido van Rossum ebba420285 Oops. Jim's fix didn't. This one does -- I tested it a bit better
this time!
2000-09-07 14:35:37 +00:00
Guido van Rossum c84d8bd7be Simple fix from Jin Fulton to avoid returning a half-initialized
module when e.g. copy_reg.py doesn't exist.  This caused a core dump.

This closes SF bug 112944.
