#403666. Specifically,
In codestr, force `c' to be global. It's unclear what the semantics
should be for a code object compiled at module scope, but bound and
run in a function. In CPython, `c' is global (by accident?) while in
Jython, `c' is local. The intent of the test clearly is to make `c'
global, so let's be explicit about it.
Jython also does not have a __builtins__ name in the module's
namespace, so we use a more portable alternative (though I'm not sure
why the test requires "__builtins__" in the g namespace).
Finally, skip the new.code() test if the new module doesn't have a
`code' attribute. Jython will never have this.
Font adjustment to improve viewing in Windows (the default monospaced font,
Courier New, seems to have no reasonable size in IE!)
Improve error handling. Try very hard to distinguish between failure to
find a module and failure during the module importing process.
Improve reloading behaviour. (Still needs some work.)
Add '.' to sys.path when running as a script at the command-line.
Don't automatically assume '-g' based on the platform. We'll just have
the batch file supply -g.
createAttributeNS(), use the parallel setAttributeNode() or
setAttributeNodeNS() to add the node to the document -- do not assume
that setAttributeNode() will operate properly for both.
Factor description of import errors into DocImportError.__str__.
Add "docother" and "fail" methods to Doc class.
Factor formatting of constants into "docother".
Increase max string repr limit to 100 characters.
Factor page generation into HTMLDoc.page.
Handle aliasing of names (objects appearing under an attribute
name different from their intrinsic __name__) by passing the
attribute name into each doc* method.
Handle methods at top level of modules (e.g. in random).
Try to do reloading efficiently.
Important fixes still to do:
Module reloading is broken by the unfortunate property that
failed imports leave an incomplete module in sys. Still
need to think of a good solution.
Can't document modules in the current directory, due to the
other unfortunate property that sys.path gets '.' when
you run 'python' but it gets the script directory when
you run a script. Need to ponder to find a solution.
The synopsis() routine does not work on .so modules.
Aliases cause duplicate copies of documentation to appear.
This is easy to fix, just more work.
Classes appear as their intrinsic name, not their attribute name,
in the class hierarchy. This should be fixed.
Inherited methods should be listed in class descriptions.
# 409287, ssl fix when using _socketobject, by Robin Dunn.
I took the opportunity to improve the way it deals with reload(socket)
for the socket function as well.
cmd.py uses raw_input(); eats SIGCLD:
I discovered a rather nasty side effect of the standard cmd.py
library today. If it's sitting inside raw_input(), any SIGCLDs that
get sent to your application get silently eaten and ignored. I'm
assuming that this is something that readline is thoughtfully doing
for me.
This patch adds an instance attr that allows the user to select to
not use raw_input(), but instead use sys.stdin.readline()
[Changed slightly to catch EOFError only for raw_input().]
along with options to print them.
Add a finalize_options() method to Distribution to do final processing
on the platform and keyword attributes
Add DistributionMetadata.write_pkg_info() method to write a PKG-INFO file
into the release tree.
This makes verbose-mode output easier to dig thru, and removes an accidental
dependence on the order of dict.items() (made visible by recent changes to
dictobject.c).
of another list comp. This caused crashes reported as SF bugs 409230
and 407800.
Note that the new tests are in a function so that the name lookup code
isn't affected by how many *other* list comprehensions are in the same
scope.
