This patch changes the way the string .encode() method works slightly
...
and introduces a new method .decode().
The major change is that strg.encode() will no longer try to convert
Unicode returns from the codec into a string, but instead pass along
the Unicode object as-is. The same is now true for all other codec
return types. The underlying C APIs were changed accordingly.
Note that even though this does have the potential of breaking
existing code, the chances are low since conversion from Unicode
previously took place using the default encoding which is normally
set to ASCII rendering this auto-conversion mechanism useless for
most Unicode encodings.
The good news is that you can now use .encode() and .decode() with
much greater ease and that the door was opened for better accessibility
of the builtin codecs.
As demonstration of the new feature, the patch includes a few new
codecs which allow string to string encoding and decoding (rot13,
hex, zip, uu, base64).

This patch originated from an idea by Martin v. Loewis who submitted a
...
patch for sharing single character Unicode objects.
Martin's patch had to be reworked in a number of ways to take Unicode
resizing into consideration as well. Here's what the updated patch
implements:
* Single character Unicode strings in the Latin-1 range are shared
(not only ASCII chars as in Martin's original patch).
* The ASCII and Latin-1 codecs make use of this optimization,
providing a noticable speedup for single character strings. Most
Unicode methods can use the optimization as well (by virtue
of using PyUnicode_FromUnicode()).
* Some code cleanup was done (replacing memcpy with Py_UNICODE_COPY)
* The PyUnicode_Resize() can now also handle the case of resizing
unicode_empty which previously resulted in an error.
* Modified the internal API _PyUnicode_Resize() and
the public PyUnicode_Resize() API to handle references to
shared objects correctly. The _PyUnicode_Resize() signature
changed due to this.
* Callers of PyUnicode_FromUnicode() may now only modify the Unicode
object contents of the returned object in case they called the API
with NULL as content template.
Note that even though this patch passes the regression tests, there
may still be subtle bugs in the sharing code.

Yet another markup nit: functions that are part of the Python/C API
...
are still C functions, and should be marked.

Clarify that the Python interpreter lock need *not* be held by

PyInterpreterState_New() and PyThreadState_New() -- but that you may
use it to serialize calls to them.
1998-08-07 18:28:03 +00:00

Update to use a separate page for front matter.

Convert recent additions to use new, "logical" markup.

In descriptions of Py_GetPrefix() and Py_GetExecPrefix(), make sure the
...
"--" at the start of the configure options isn't collapsed to "-" when the
HTML is generated.

Don't assume that \version expands to the 3-character major.minor number; it
...
is the full release version name ("1.5.1beta1", for instance).

Capitalize "Python" for consistency.
1998-04-03 05:02:28 +00:00
c6fa34e4d0
Markup consistency & nits.
...
Fix typo in a C code example: KeyError is spelled PyExc_KeyError in C; the
"K" is upper case!
Some index entries.
On function signatures, always use parameter names. Make return types match
what's in the header files. When the return type is a pointer, always omit
the space between te type name and the "*"; leaving it in results in
type * func(..)
and having two spaces there just looks terrible.

Convert LaTeX support to create a new class of documents. HTML generation
...
now requires LaTeX2HTML 98.1p1 or newer (& and is still in progress).
This means that doing things to change the formatting of the manuals (at the
"normal user" level, like A4 paper), can happen in just one place, rather
than in each document file.
