calling a foreign function. This allows to use the unmodified libffi
library.
Remove most files from _ctypes/libffi_msvc, only two include files
stay (updated from _ctypes/libffi/...). Other files are used in the
cross-platform _ctypes/libffi directory.
any non-float non-integer argument is now converted to an integer (if
possible) using its __int__ method. Previously, only small arguments
were treated this way; larger arguments (those whose __int__ was
outside the range of a C long) would produce a TypeError.
Patch by Alexander Belopolsky (with minor modifications).
When a Decimal operation raises multiple signals and more than one of
those signals is trapped, the specification determines the order in
which the signals should be handled. In many cases this order wasn't
being followed, leading to the wrong Python exception being raised.
This commit fixes those cases, and adds extra tests. The tests are
only enabled when EXTENDEDERRORTESTS is True, since they involve
rerunning each Decimal testcase several times.
framework install of Python in your home directory (on OSX):
$ configure --enable-framework=${HOME}/Library/Frameworks
$ make && make install
Without this patch the framework would get installed just fine,
but 'make install' would try to install the application bundles
and command-line tools outside the user's home, which doesn't work
for non-admin users (and is bad form anyway).
* Use try/except ImportError or test_support.import_module() to import thread
and threading modules
* Add @unittest.skipUnless(threading, ...) to testcases using threads
Refactors format_string. Includes tests for the two problems noted in
the issue, but as far as I can see there are no other tests that confirm
that format_string conforms to normal % formatting rules.
by default as well. This change fixes that by treating -Q like -3 when it comes
to DeprecationWarning; using it causes the silencing to not occur.
Fixes issue #7319.
where the method could block indefinitely if called just before the
event loop started running. This also fixes the occasional freezes
witnessed in test_httpservers.
a non-infinite timeout. Also make that method friendlier with applications
wanting to continue using the socket in clear-text mode, by disabling
OpenSSL's internal readahead. Thanks to Darryl Miles for guidance.
Issue #8108: test_ftplib's non-blocking SSL server now has proper handling
of SSL shutdowns.
PyMarshal_ReadLastObjectFromFile, which doesn't bring any noticeable
benefit compared to the dynamic memory allocation fallback. Patch by
Charles-François Natali.
Two itimer tests and an interprocess signal test fail on FreeBSD 6 if
any test that starts a thread runs before test_signal. Since FreeBSD7
does not show this behavior, the bug is most likely a platform bug,
so this patch just skips the failing tests on freebsd6.
Instead of spaces between the filename and date (or whatever the string
is that follows the filename, if any) use tabs. This is what the unix
'diff' command does, for example, and difflib was intended to follow
the 'standard' way of doing diffs. This improves compatibility with
patch tools. The docs and examples are also changed to recommended that
the date format used be the ISO 8601 format, which is what modern diff
tools emit by default.
Patch by Anatoly Techtonik.
Fixed a typo in the email.encoders module so that messages output using
an ISO-2022 character set will use a content-transfer-encoding of
7bit consistently. Previously if the input data had any eight bit
characters the output data would get marked as 8bit even though it
was actually 7bit.
* PyCObject_AsVoidPtr() can now open capsules. This addresses
most of the remaining backwards-compatibility concerns about
the conversion of Python 2.7 from CObjects to capsules.
* CObjects were marked Pending Deprecation.
* Documentation about this pending deprecation was added to
cobject.h.
* The capsule source files were added to the legacy PC build
processes.
Also rewrite the Decimal __hash__ method so that it doesn't rely on
float('inf') being valid: float('inf') could raise an exception on
platforms not using IEEE 754 arithmetic.
Float to decimal comparison operations now return a result based on
the numeric values of the operands. Decimal.__hash__ has also been
fixed so that Decimal and float values that compare equal have equal
hash value.
argument `-` which tells it to read files to compile from stdin. Each line
is read on demand and the named file is compiled immediately. (Original
patch by Piotr Ożarowski).
