Fred Drake 1ec0bdf899 The datetime C API really isn't usable outside the datetime module

Raymond Hettinger 6f3eaa67e5 SF patch #761519: Fixes for bugs 760703 and 757821
SF bug #760703: SocketHandler and LogRecord don't work well together
SF bug #757821: logging module docs

Applied Vinay Sajip's patch with a few minor fixups and a NEWS item.

Patched __init__.py - added new function
makeLogRecord (for bug report 760703).

Patched handlers.py - updated some docstrings and
deleted some old commented-out code.

Patched test_logging.py to make use of makeLogRecord.

Patched liblogging.tex to fill documentation gaps (both
760703 and bug 757821).

Tim Peters 6ebe61fa80 A hack to ease compatibility with pre-2.3 Pythons: by default, doctest
now accepts "True" when a test expects "1", and similarly for "False"
versus "0".  This is un-doctest-like, but on balance makes it much
more pleasant to write doctests that pass under 2.2 and 2.3.  I expect
it to go away again, when 2.2 is forgotten.  In the meantime, there's
a new doctest module constant that can be passed to a new optional
argument, if you want to turn this behavior off.

Note that this substitution is very simple-minded:  the expected and
actual outputs have to consist of single tokens.  No attempt is made,
e.g., to accept [True, False] when a test expects [1, 0].  This is a
simple hack for simple tests, and I intend to keep it that way.

Gustavo Niemeyer 9556fba685 - urllib2.py now knows how to order proxy classes, so the user doesn't
have to insert it in front of other classes, nor do dirty tricks like
  inserting a "dummy" HTTPHandler after a ProxyHandler when building an
  opener with proxy support.

Greg Ward fb1b5a164d Rewrite the description of setparameters() so it actually reflects the
code (which has also been recently overhauled, so that it can be
documented without embarassment).

'error' has been renamed to 'OSSAudioError'.

Minor wordsmithing.

Gregory P. Smith dad58601a0 Remove the note about the BerkeleyDB license. Barry indicates that
sleepycat has told him that since python is OSS and berkeleydb is
being distributed with python for the bsddb library all is fine.

Jeremy Hylton c428112d29 Rename lib__future__.tex to libfuture.tex and add link in lib.tex. 2003-05-28 11:57:52 +00:00
Gregory P. Smith 5772513f0f Include a link to the pybsddb web documentation for the modern object
oriented DbEnv & Db object BerkeleyDB interface.

Include a note about Sleepycat's BerkeleyDB license with regards to
distributing it within non-opensource applications and include a link
to their website for license details.

Document that 'r' is the default flag for the legacy bsddb btopen(),
hashopen(), and rnopen() functions.  This is apparently different than the
dbm libraries in other languages according to Bug #732951.  Changing
the default from 'r' to 'c' would break backwards compatibility with
legacy bsddb applications; documenting the default should suffice.
