* Various sections were pointing to the section on the string.Formatter
class, when the section on the common format string syntax is probably more
appropriate
* Fix references to various format() functions and methods
* Nested replacement fields may contain conversions and format specifiers,
and this is tested; see Issue #19729 for instance
Fixed a crash when unpickle the functools.partial object with wrong state.
Fixed a leak in failed functools.partial constructor.
"args" and "keywords" attributes of functools.partial have now always types
tuple and dict correspondingly.
* test_contains() did not override anything
* test_expandtabs/upper/lower() in FixedStringTest were masking usable tests
in string_tests. These tests now get run for bytearray() and bytes().
* test_expandtabs/upper/lower() in buffer_tests were only run on bytearray()
and are redundant with string_tests
Test test_wrong_cert() runs a server that rejects the client's certificate,
so ECONNRESET is reasonable in addition to SSLError. On the other hand, the
other three tests don't even need to run a server because they are just
testing the parsing of invalid certificate files.
Also fix a ResourceWarning by closing the wrapped socket.
Issue #26248, patch written by Ben Hoyt:
1) Clarify that the return values of is_dir()/is_file()/etc are cached
separately for follow_symlinks True and False.
2) Be more specific about when the functions require a system call, and how it
relates to caching and follow_symlinks.
3) DRY up common stuff between is_dir and is_file by saying "Caching, system
calls made, and exceptions raised are as per is_dir" in is_file.
4) Tweak to the first paragraph of docs for is_dir/is_file to simplify: assume
the follow_symlinks=True default, then note the follow_symlinks=False
non-default case after.
Testing for a non-existing certificate file is already done in test_errors().
Copy wrongcert.pem from Python 2 and use it to test the behaviour with a
mismatched certificate.
* Issue #25234: Skip test_eintr.test_open() under OS X to avoid hanging
* Issue #25868: Try to make test_eintr.test_sigwaitinfo() more reliable
especially on slow buildbots. Use a pipe to synchronize the parent and the
child processes.
Issue #26227: On Windows, getnameinfo(), gethostbyaddr() and gethostbyname_ex()
functions of the socket module now decode the hostname from the ANSI code page
rather than UTF-8.
Issue #26217: resize_compact() must set wstr_length to 0 after freeing the wstr
string. Otherwise, an assertion fails in _PyUnicode_CheckConsistency().
Issue #25907: Use {% trans %} tags in HTML templates to ease the translation of
the documentation. The tag comes from Jinja templating system, used by Sphinx.
Patch written by Julien Palard.
Issue #25843: When compiling code, don't merge constants if they are equal but
have a different types. For example, "f1, f2 = lambda: 1, lambda: 1.0" is now
correctly compiled to two different functions: f1() returns 1 (int) and f2()
returns 1.0 (int), even if 1 and 1.0 are equal.
Add a new _PyCode_ConstantKey() private function.
