pickle.py
The code implicitly assumed that all ints fit in 4 bytes, causing all
sorts of mischief (from nonsense results to corrupted pickles).
Repaired that.
marshal.c
The int marshaling code assumed that right shifts of signed longs
sign-extend. Repaired that.
bugs on sizeof(long)==8 machines. pickle.py has no idea what it's
doing with very large ints, and variously gets things right by accident,
computes nonsense, or generates corrupt pickles. cPickle fails on
cases 2**31 <= i < 2**32: since it *thinks* those are 4-byte ints
(the "high 4 bytes" are all zeroes), it stores them in the (signed!) BININT
format, so they get unpickled as negative values.
integers, but the std tests don't exercise most of them. Repair that.
CAUTION: I expect this to fail on boxes with sizeof(long)==8, in the
part of test_cpickle (but not test_pickle) trying to do a binary mode
(not text mode) load of the embedded BINDATA pickle string. Once that
hypothesized failure is confirmed, I'll fix cPickle.c.
Even though relative redirects are illegal, they are common
urllib treated every relative redirect as though it was to http,
even if the original was https://
As long as we're compensating for server bugs, might as well do
it properly.
Add mangling support
Add get_children() and add_child() methods to Scope
Skip nodes when If test is a false constant
Add test code that checks results against symtable module
Fix com_NEWLINE() so that is accepts arguments, which occurs for lines like:
stmt; # note trailing semicolon
Add XXX about checking for assignment to list comps

It's clear that Medusa should not be checking for an empty buffer
via "buf is ''". The patch merely changes "is" to "==". However,
there's a mystery here all the same: Python attempts to store null
strings uniquely, so it's unclear why "buf is ''" ever returned
false when buf actually was empty. *Some* string operations produce
non-unique null strings, e.g.
>>> "abc"*0 is "abc"*0
0
>>>
but they're rare, and I don't see any such operations in asynchat.
add a self-test using doctest. Results:
- The docstring needs to be a raw string because it uses \"...\".
- The oreo example was broken: the Set-Cookie output doesn't add
quotes around "doublestuff".
- I had to change the example that prints the class of a Cookie.Cookie
instance to avoid incorporating an arbitrary object address in the
test output.
Pretty good score for both doctest and the doc string, I'd say!
define COLORS or COLOR_PAIRS until after start_color() is called,
but they were never added to the curses module. Fixed by adding
a wrapper around start_color(), similar to the wrapper around initscr().
This applies the patch Fred Drake created to fix it.
I'm checking it in since I had to apply the patch anyway in order
to test its behavior on Windows.
used by Jython. The tests in this module expect C locale, so be
explicit about setting that (for CPython). However, in Jython, there
is no C locale, so instead be explicit about setting the US locale.
Closes the patch.
Change 1: Not all 'modules' in sys.modules have a
sensible __file__ attribute. Some of our java package
can have the __file__ attribute set to None.
Change 2: In jython we have the jython license file in
<root> and the CPython license file in <root>/Lib. By
reversing the search sequence jython will find and
show the jython license file before the CPython file.
Closes SF patch #405853.
