It also prevents building against the real X headers, if installed.
After discussions with the Cygwin project lead, I believe that building
against the real X headers is OK. Especially, since the psuedo-X headers
are *not* installed by the Cygwin Tcl/Tk binary package.
Note that this patch just reverts the lib_prefix (i.e., "cyg") portion
of my Tcl/Tk 8.3 patch. It seems that Cygwin Tcl/Tk is using a more
normal file naming convention again.
guarantee to keep valid pointers in its slots.
tests: Moved ExtensionSaver from test_copy_reg into pickletester, and
use it both places. Once extension codes get assigned, it won't be
safe to overwrite them willy nilly in test suites, and ExtensionSaver
does a thorough job of undoing any possible damage.
Beefed up the EXT[124] tests a bit, to check the smallest and largest
codes in each opcode's range too.
blindly assumed that tp_as_sequence->sq_item always returns
a str or unicode object. This might fail with str or unicode
subclasses.
This patch checks whether the object returned from __getitem__
is a str/unicode object and raises a TypeError if not (and
the filter function returned true).
Furthermore the result for __getitem__ can be more than one
character long, so checks for enough memory have to be done.
this clarifies that they are part of an internal API (albeit shared
between pickle.py, copy_reg.py and cPickle.c).
I'd like to do the same for copy_reg.dispatch_table, but worry that it
might be used by existing code. This risk doesn't exist for the
extension registry.
module. This increases code coverage of Python/sysmodule.c
from 68% to 77% (on Linux).
The script doesn't exercise the error branch that handles an evil
or lost sys.excepthook in Python/pythonrun.c::PyErr_PrintEx().
Also this script might not work on Jython in its current form.
From SF patch #662807.
because it seems more consistent with the rest of the code.
cPickle_PyMapping_HasKey(): This extern function isn't used anywhere in
Python or Zope, so got rid of it.
extension implemented flush() was fixed. Scott also rewrite the
zlib test suite using the unittest module. (SF bug #640230 and
patch #678531.)
Backport candidate I think.
