Fred Drake 762e206706 posix_putenv(): Constrain memory leakage when setting the same
environment variable repeatedly.  I posted this to the list
        some time ago, but only now got around to asking g--d- what he
        thought about it.

Guido van Rossum 6a619f44c5 It turns out that modifying the environment strings is not safe.
Treat them as read-only, and make a copy as appropriately.  This was
first reported by Bill Janssend and later by Craig Rowland and Ron
Sedlmeyer.  This fix is mine.

Guido van Rossum 9068da4b6d Milton L. Hankin reports that on Windows it is possible to have two
different values in the environ dict with the same key (although he
couldn't explain exactly how this came to be).  Since getenv() uses
the first one, Python should do too. (Some doubts about case
sensitivity, but for now this at least seems the right thing to do
regardless of platform.)

Barry Warsaw f63b8cc07c posix_listdir(): When an error occurs, call
posix_error_with_filename() instead of posix_error(), passing in the
name argument, so you get information on which directory was being
listed.

Guido van Rossum 8c67e4e8c9 Add extern decl for fsync() for SunOS 4.x. 1999-04-07 15:49:41 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 3366d1c7e6 # Typo in docstring (Retrun -> Return). 1999-02-23 18:34:43 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 61eeb044d7 The docstring for ttyname(..) claims a second "mode" argument. The
actual code does not allow such an argument.  (Finn Bock.)
1999-02-22 15:29:15 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 7d385294a4 The symbols P_* (for spawn*(), MS specific) should not have a leading
underscore after all, for consistency with the O_* symnbols.
1999-02-16 19:38:04 +00:00
Guido van Rossum b8c3cbdd50 Fixed totally bogus conversion factors used in the Win32 version of
os.times().
1999-02-16 14:37:28 +00:00
Barry Warsaw ca74da4e2c Got rid of the file-global PosixError. This was redundant since it
was just an alias for PyExc_OSError and the way we were doing it was
causing a (small) memory leak anyway.  Just use PyExc_OSError
everywhere.
1999-02-09 19:31:45 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 0c9608cf1b Portability fix for [f]statvfs() return tuple: no longer return the
f_fsid field, since it's not a scalar on all systems supporting this
call (in particular, it's a tuple of two longs on AIX).  Since it's
not particularly useful, just nuke it.  Adapted the doc strings too.
1999-02-03 16:32:37 +00:00
Fred Drake 7e3535cbbd Added documentation to the docstrings for the W*() functions that take
a process exit status as a parameter.
1999-02-02 16:37:11 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 246bc17a8b Add _P_WAIT etc. for NT. 1999-02-01 23:54:31 +00:00
Fred Drake a6dff3e772 spawnv, spawnve docstrings: added mode parameter; this is required! 1999-02-01 22:24:40 +00:00
Guido van Rossum e6a3aa6066 Oops, the patch for NeXT always replaced waitpid() with wait4() --
this doesn't exist everywhere, so go back to using #ifdef NeXT.

Guido van Rossum 54ecc3d24f Patches by William Lewis for Nextstep descendants. 1999-01-27 17:53:11 +00:00
Guido van Rossum a106568eed Add spawnv and spawnve functions for Win32 platforms. 1999-01-25 23:20:23 +00:00
Guido van Rossum d371ff17a1 Only do ttyname() when HAVE_TTYNAME is defined.
Also define F_OK etc. when not already defined, when doing access().
1999-01-25 16:12:23 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 5d00b6d459 Need extern decl. for fdatasync() in case it exists but isn't declared
anywhere (or, more likely, the declaration requires a magical
combination of _POSIX defines).
1999-01-08 21:28:05 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 21142a09f3 Added fsync() and fdatasync(). Patches by Scott Cotton. Requires
HAVE_* macros set by configure script.
1999-01-08 21:05:37 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 015f22a0fa Change the access() code to return 1 if granted, 0 if not granted.
Patch (again) by Sean Reifschneider.
1999-01-06 22:52:38 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 94f6f72c05 Changes for long file support by Steve Clift.
Also added access() and ttyname() by Sean Reifschneider.
1999-01-06 18:42:14 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 3886bb6997 Add DL_EXPORT() to all modules that could possibly be used
on BeOS or Windows.
1998-12-04 18:50:17 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 7e48898d86 Use the t# format where appropriate. Greg Stein. 1998-10-08 02:25:24 +00:00
Guido van Rossum be70450f03 Removed some OS/2 #defines (now in the OS/2 specific config.h).
Patch by Jeff Rush.
1998-09-28 21:55:25 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 617bc19e3d In Win32 version of listdir(), when FindFirstFile() returns
ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND, return an empty list instead of raising an
exception.

Guido van Rossum bcc207484a Changes for BeOS, QNX and long long, by Chris Herborth. 1998-08-04 22:53:56 +00:00
Guido van Rossum c96417980c Patch by Jody Winston (with my changes) to add some of the "wait
status inspection" macros as functions: WEXITSTATUS(), WIFEXITED(),
WIFSIGNALED(), WIFSTOPPED(), WSTOPSIG(), WTERMSIG().
1998-08-04 15:26:23 +00:00
Barry Warsaw d58d7647f3 Several changes to support inclusion of filename in relevent
exceptions:

posix_error_with_filename(): New function which calls
PyErr_SetFromErrnoWithFilename()

The following methods have been changed to call
posix_error_with_filename():

    posix_1str()
    posix_strint()
    posix_strintint()
    posix_do_stat()
    posix_mkdir()
    posix_utime()
    posix_readlink()
    posix_open()

INITFUNC(): os.error (nee PosixError) is PyExc_OSError

Guido van Rossum b3f9f4b729 On Windows, make the pipe() call return Unix file descriptors instead
of Windows file handles.  Now it is at least compatible with itself on
Unix!
1998-06-12 15:05:15 +00:00
Guido van Rossum bfaf3d6186 Moved some #ifdefs around that got put in the wrong place by the
latest OS/2 patch set.
1997-12-29 20:02:27 +00:00
Guido van Rossum d48f252ce5 Another large batch of patches from Jeff Rush for OS/2.
I hope this time I've taken out all // comments and indended #ifdefs.
1997-12-05 22:19:34 +00:00
Guido van Rossum c5a0f532e7 Patch for QNX, by Chris Herborth. Also left-aligned preprocessor
directives and changed C++ comments to C comments.

Guido van Rossum 8e9ebfd337 os2 patch by Jeff Rush 1997-11-22 21:53:48 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 359bcaa539 This fix (across 4 files in 3 directories) solves a subtle problem with
signal handlers in a fork()ed child process when Python is compiled with
thread support.  The bug was reported by Scott <scott@chronis.icgroup.com>.

What happens is that after a fork(), the variables used by the signal
module to determine whether this is the main thread or not are bogus,
and it decides that no thread is the main thread, so no signals will
be delivered.

The solution is the addition of PyOS_AfterFork(), which fixes the signal
module's variables.  A dummy version of the function is present in the
intrcheck.c source file which is linked when the signal module is not
used.

Guido van Rossum 0cb96de269 Apply two changes, systematically:
(1) Use PyErr_NewException("module.class", NULL, NULL) to create the
    exception object.

(2) Remove all calls to Py_FatalError(); instead, return or
    ignore the errors -- the import code now checks PyErr_Occurred()
    after calling a module's init function, so it's no longer a
    fatal error for the initialization to fail.

Also did some small cleanups, e.g. removed unnecessary test for
"already initialized" from initfpectl(), and unified
initposix()/initnt().

I haven't checked this very thoroughly, so while the changes are
pretty trivial -- beware of untested code!

Roger E. Masse 0318fd6050 Moved the definition of posix_times__doc__ to outside of #ifdef HAVE_TIMES
so that MSVC 4.2 doesn't complain under NT.
1997-06-05 22:07:58 +00:00
Guido van Rossum ec4f4ac8c0 Added doc strings (Neil Schemenauer). 1997-06-02 22:20:51 +00:00

argument, not hardwired to a dictionary.
1997-01-29 15:08:24 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 4a34209468 1. Export open(2) flag constants for every defined constant

Barry Warsaw 53699e9ec1 Renamed.
Note that there is no test suite for this module, and I don't plan to
write one just now.
