Some functions in the msvcrt module are skipped,
and socket.ioctl is enabled only when using a more recent Platform SDK.
(and yes, there are still companies that use a 10-years old compiler)
Added checks for integer overflows, contributed by Google. Some are
only available if asserts are left in the code, in cases where they
can't be triggered from Python code.
This patch adds a new configure argument on OSX:
--with-universal-archs=[32-bit|64-bit|all]
When used with the --enable-universalsdk option this controls which
CPU architectures are includes in the framework. The default is 32-bit,
meaning i386 and ppc. The most useful alternative is 'all', which includes
all 4 CPU architectures supported by MacOS X (i386, ppc, x86_64 and ppc64).
This includes limited support for the Carbon bindings in 64-bit mode as well,
limited because (a) I haven't done extensive testing and (b) a large portion
of the Carbon API's aren't available in 64-bit mode anyway.
I've also duplicated a feature of Apple's build of python: setting the
environment variable 'ARCHFLAGS' controls the '-arch' flags used for building
extensions using distutils.
renamed Include/bytesobject.h to Include/bytearrayobject.h
renamed Include/stringobject.h to Include/bytesobject.h
added Include/stringobject.h with aliases
Adds 'n' as a format specifier for integers, to mirror the same
specifier which is already available for floats. 'n' is the same as
'd', but inserts the current locale-specific thousands grouping.
I added this as a stringlib function, but it's only used by str type,
not unicode. This is because of an implementation detail in
unicode.format(), which does its own str->unicode conversion. But the
unicode version will be needed in 3.0, and it may be needed by other
code eventually in 2.6 (maybe decimal?), so I left it as a stringlib
implementation. As long as the unicode version isn't instantiated,
there's no overhead for this.
The patch also adds acosh, asinh, atanh, log1p and copysign to all platforms. Finally it fixes differences between platforms like different results or exceptions for edge cases. Have fun :)
'warnings' code in places where it was previously not possible (e.g., the
parser). It could also potentially lead to a speed-up in interpreter start-up
if the C version of the code (_warnings) is imported over the use of the
Python version in key places.
Closes issue #1631171.
close() will now raise an IOError if any operations on the file object
are currently in progress in other threads.
Most code was written by Antoine Pitrou (pitrou). Additional testing,
documentation and test suite cleanup done by me (gregory.p.smith).
Fixes issue 815646 and 595601 (as well as many other bugs and
references to this problem dating back to the dawn of Python).
Rather than sprinkle casts throughout the code, change Py_CHARMASK to
always cast it's result to an unsigned char. This should ensure we
do the right thing when accessing an array with the result.
The new PyParser_*Ex() functions are based on Neal's suggestion and initial patch. The new __future__ feature makes all '' and r'' unicode strings. b'' and br'' stay (byte) strings.
