* Added C coded getrandbits(k) method that runs in linear time.
* Call the new method from randrange() for ranges >= 2**53.
* Adds a warning for generators not defining getrandbits() whenever they
have a call to randrange() with too large of a population.
is None, the next row read is used as the fieldnames. In the common case,
this means the programmer doesn't need to know the fieldnames ahead of time.
The first row of the file will be used. In the uncommon case, this means
the programmer can set the reader's fieldnames attribute to None at any time
and have the next row read as the next set of fieldnames, so a csv file can
contain several "sections", each with different fieldnames.
db that is opened. DB_THREAD and DB_INIT_LOCK allow for multithreaded
access. DB_PRIVATE prevents the DBEnv from using the filesystem
(making it only usable by this process; and in this implementation
using one DBEnv per bsddb database)
why in a new comment. My home Win98SE box is one of the "real systems"
alluded to (my system "default sound" appears to have vanished sometime
in the last month, that's certainly not a Python bug, and the MS
PlaySound docs are correct in their explanation of what happens then).
Bugfix candidate. If someone can still sneak it into 2.3.1, that would
be good.

Adds support for building and installing bsddb3 in python2.3 that has
an older version of this module installed as bsddb without conflicts.
The pybsddb.sf.net build/packaged version of the module uses a
dynamicly loadable module called _pybsddb rather than _bsddb.
test_bad_address(): Recover from that VeriSign thought it would boost
its corporate coffers to start resolving http://www.sadflkjsasadf.com/.
Bugfix candidate -- although the bug is more VeriSign's than Python's!
Add support for the iterator and mapping protocols.
For Py2.3, this was done for shelve, dumbdbm and other mapping objects, but
not for bsddb and dbhash which were inadvertently missed.
1. Remove "idle" script, it lives in Tools/scripts/ now.
2. Remove shebang from idle.py, should be called explicitly.
3. Remove obsolete test code from rpc.py; needs unit test.
file_truncate(): C doesn't define what fflush(fp) does if fp is open
for update, and the preceding I/O operation on fp was input. On Windows,
fflush() actually changes the current file position then. Because
Windows doesn't support ftruncate() directly, this not only caused
Python's file.truncate() to change the file position (contra our docs),
it also caused the file not to change size.
Repaired by getting the initial file position at the start, restoring
it at the end, and tossing all the complicated micro-efficiency checks
trying to avoid "provably unnecessary" seeks. file.truncate() can't
be a frequent operation, and seeking to the current file position has
got to be cheap anyway.
Bugfix candidate.
random.sample() uses one of two algorithms depending on the ratio of the
sample size to the population size. One of the algorithms accepted any
iterable population argument so long as it defined __len__(). The other
had a stronger requirement that the population argument be indexable.
While it met the documentation specifications which insisted that the
population argument be a sequence, it made random.sample() less usable
with sets. So, the second algorithm was modified to coerce non-indexable
iterables and dictionaries into a tuple before proceeding.
quotes. Fixes SF bug #794466, with the essential patch provided by
Stuart D. Gathman. Specifically,
_parseparam(), _get_params_preserve(): Use the parsing function that
takes quotes into account, as given (essentially) in the bug report's
test program.
Backport candidate.
For smaller datasets, it is not always true the increasing the compression
level always results in better compression. Removed the test which made
this invalid assumption.

* Convert three test modules to unittest format.
* Expanded coverage in test_structseq.py.
* Raymond added a new test in test_sets.py
When the indents were set to longer than the width and long word breaking
was enabled, an infinite loop would result because the inner loop did not
assure that at least one character was stripped off on every pass.
platforms (e.g., Cygwin) that are "particular" about open files, this will

This patch solves the problem by adding missing "try/finally" blocks. Note
that the "large" size of this patch is due to many white space changes --
otherwise, the patch is small.
I tested this patch under Red Hat Linux 8.0 too.

* Relaxed the argument restrictions for non-operator methods. They now
allow any iterable instead of requiring a set. This makes the module
a little easier to use and paves the way for an efficient C
implementation which can take better advantage of iterable arguments
while screening out immutables.
* Deprecated Set.update() because it now duplicates Set.union_update()
* Adapted the tests and docs to include the above changes.
* Added more test coverage including testing identities and checking
to make sure non-restartable generators work as arguments.
Will backport to Py2.3.1 so that the interface remains consistent
across versions. The deprecation of update() will be changed to
a FutureWarning.

Certainly doesn't apply to release21-maint.
The default seed is time.time().
Multiplied by 256 before truncating so that fractional seconds are used.
This way, two successive calls to random.seed() are much more likely
to produce different sequences.
Also remove now unnecessary property attributes for thread safety
(no longer have lazy attributes) and code simplicity reasons.
Timezone storage has been reworked to be simpler and more flexible. All values
in LocaleTime instances are lower-cased. This is all done to simplify the
module.
The module now assumes nothing beyond the strptime function will be exposed for
general use beyond providing functionality for strptime.
caught when executing test_strptime, test_logging, and test_time in that order
when the testing of "%c" occured. Suspect the cache was not being recreated
(the test passed when test_logging was forced to re-establish the locale).
Obtain the original locale in the documented way. This way actually
works for me.
Restore the original locale at the end, instead of forcing to "C".
Move the locale fiddling into the test driver instead of doing it as a
side effect of merely importing the module. I don't know why the test
is mucking with locale (and also added a comment saying so), but it
surely has no justification for doing that as an import side-effect.
Now whenever the locale-changing code executes, the locale-restoring code
will also get run.

containing comments at the end of the file are still not supported.
Add a testcase to test_zipimport, and update NEWS.
This closes sf #775637 and sf #669036.
are satisfied in a case-insensitive manner, the attempt to import (the
non-existent) fcntl gets satisfied by FCNTL.py instead, and the tempfile
module defines a Unix-specific _set_cloexec() function in that case. As
a result, temp files can't be created then (blows up with an AttributeError
trying to reference fcntl.fcntl). This just popped up in the spambayes
project, where there is no apparent workaround (which is why I'm pushing
this in now).
If this doesn't happen, it leaves the locale in a state that can cause
other tests to fail. For example, running test_strptime,
test_logging, and test_time in that order.
skip over functions with private names (as indicated by the underscore
naming convention). The old default created too much of a risk that
user tests were being skipped inadvertently. Note, this change could
break code in the unlikely case that someone had intentionally put
failing tests in the docstrings of private functions. The breakage
is easily fixable by specifying the old behavior when calling testmod()
or Tester(). The more likely case is that the silent failure was
unintended and that the user needed to be informed so the test could be
fixed.
Extensions must still be configured manually and there is currently one
set of extension key bindings for all platforms.

* It ran fine under "python regrtest.py test_warnings" but failed under
"python regrtest.py" presumably because other tests would add to
filtered warnings and not reset them at the end of the test.
* Converted to a unittest format for better control. Renamed
monkey() and unmonkey() to setUp() and tearDown().
* Increased coverage by testing all warnings in __builtin__.
* Increased coverage by testing regex matching of specific messages.

about so I used that.
Related to SF patch 723231 (which pointed out the problem, but didn't
fix it, just shut up the warning msg -- which was pointing out a dead-
serious bug!).
Bugfix candidate.
databases are associated with corruption problems, so I studied this code
carefully and ran some brutal stress tests. I didn't find any bugs,
although it's unclear whether this code *intends* that __setitem__ can
leave the directory file out of synch with the data file (so
if a dumbdbm isn't properly closed, and the value of an existing key
was ever replaced, corruption is almost certain, where "corruption"
means the directory file is out of synch with the data file).
Added many comments and generally modernized the code. Examples of the
latter: we have better ways of reading a whole file line-by-line now;
eval() now tolerates a trailing newline; the %r format code can be used
to avoid explicit repr/backtick calls; and the code often broke tuples
into their components when it was clearer and faster to just leave them
as tuples.
Add API function simplefilter() that does not create or install
regular expressions to match message or module. Extend the filters
data structure to store None as an alternative to re.compile("").
Move the _test() function to test_warnings and add some code to try
and avoid disturbing the global state of the warnings module.
At this point, the problem appears particular to the OS/2 EMX port of
gdbm (which is at v1.7.3) - this combination produces a .pag file but
no .dir file.
A more sophisticated patch which checks magic numbers when dbm.library
indicates that dbm is linked to gdbm, and there is no .dir file, is
still attached to the above patch entry for reconsideration after 2.3
is released.
This checkin applies a workaround specific to the known failure case.
until now: the inheritance of default values was the wrong way around.
This caused app bundles to get a type of "BNDL" instead of "APPL".
Apparently this is not a problem until you try to drag your app to
the dock.

record tuple by name as well as index, to match the behaviour of
the pwd/grp extension modules for Unix. These emulation modules
now pass test_pwd & test_grp.
* Extended DB & DBEnv set_get_returns_none functionality to take a
"level" instead of a boolean flag. The boolean 0 and 1 values still
have the same effect. A value of 2 extends the "return None instead
of raising an exception" behaviour to the DBCursor set methods.
This will become the default behaviour in pybsddb 4.2.
* Fixed a typo in DBCursor.join_item method that made it crash instead
of returning a value. Obviously nobody uses it. Wrote a test case
for join and join_item.
- added bundle_id/--bundle-id option, to specify the CFBundleIndentifier

time.tzname[1] and not time.daylight`` is true when it should only when
time.daylight is true. Tests are also fixed.

As the symbol has already been rebound as a global, use that instead.
