* 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
I replaced sys.maxint with sys.maxsize in Lib/*.py. Does anybody see a problem with the change on Win 64bit platforms? Win 64's long is just 32bit but the sys.maxsize is now 2**63-1 on every 64bit platform.
Also added docs for sys.maxsize.
No detailed change log; just check out the change log for the py3k-pep3137
branch. The most obvious changes:
- str8 renamed to bytes (PyString at the C level);
- bytes renamed to buffer (PyBytes at the C level);
- PyString and PyUnicode are no longer compatible.
I.e. we now have an immutable bytes type and a mutable bytes type.
The behavior of PyString was modified quite a bit, to make it more
bytes-like. Some changes are still on the to-do list.
to be called a buffer). Shares code with stringobject when possible.
Adds unit tests with common code that should be usable to test the PEPs
mutable buffer() and immutable bytes() types.
