Gregory P. Smith a5cfcad0e3 Prevent ioctl op codes from being sign extended from int to unsigned long
when used on platforms that actually define ioctl as taking an unsigned long.
(the BSDs and OS X / Darwin)

Adds a unittest for fcntl.ioctl that tests what happens with both positive and
negative numbers.

This was done because of issue1471 but I'm not able to reproduce -that- problem
in the first place on Linux 32bit or 64bit or OS X 10.4 & 10.5 32bit or 64 bit.

Gregory P. Smith bde40078b0 Mention that crc32 and adler32 are available in a different module (zlib).

Steven Bethard 6f778cfb5b Document unicode.isnumeric() and unicode.isdecimal() (issue2326) 2008-03-17 19:33:11 +00:00
Gregory P. Smith f48f9d38c0 Force zlib.crc32 and zlib.adler32 to return a signed integer on all platforms
regardless of the native sizeof(long) used in the integer object.

This somewhat odd behavior of returning a signed is maintained in 2.x for
compatibility reasons of always returning an integer rather than a long object.

Fixes Issue1202 for Python 2.6

Mark Summerfield 43da35de7b Added a footnote to each pointing out that for XML output if an encoding
string is given it should conform to the appropriate XML standards---for
example, "UTF-8" is okay, but "UTF8" is not.

Jeffrey Yasskin e75f59a578 Progress on issue #1193577 by adding a polling .shutdown() method to
SocketServers. The core of the patch was written by Pedro Werneck, but any bugs
are mine. I've also rearranged the code for timeouts in order to avoid
interfering with the shutdown poll.
