Guido van Rossum 6ca3defcfa mini-faq on porting python 1998-08-10 16:36:48 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 71c3adb7ec #Typos from previous checkin 1998-08-10 16:34:33 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 41a05c75d4 Huge number of docstring changes, typo fixes, rewordings, GNU standard
conformations, etc., etc. inspired and given by Michael Ernst.  These
include error string fixes, moving of comments to docstrings, some
other non-related typos, terminology standardizing (b/w TP and myself,
and b/w myself and myself :-) although more can still be done.
E.g. "outdenting" => "dedenting".

Guido van Rossum d741f4c48c Added a bunch of symbols detected by Marc Lemburg's script. 1998-08-09 04:00:05 +00:00
Guido van Rossum c3e3e6486f There's a bunch of files that shouldn't be included in libpython*.a! 1998-08-09 03:55:31 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 37ea4107b1 # New version; not clear what happened. 1998-08-08 23:48:26 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 43ff114d2b Sigh. More restructuring was needed.
Make an explicit test for whether the prefix is in fact the
source directory, and then don't use the registry.

Guido van Rossum 7fb668866d Get rid of python15.lib; add some incl files 1998-08-08 21:04:19 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 3804d7ee97 Add PyEval_CallFunction() and PyEval_CallMethod(). 1998-08-08 20:55:59 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 3d109a0e6d Add missing prototypes for PyEval_CallFunction() and PyEval_CallMethod(). 1998-08-08 20:53:36 +00:00
Guido van Rossum c4099e6b3c # Fix strange type (methonname instead of methodname). 1998-08-08 20:51:26 +00:00
Guido van Rossum b58dff553b Play games with version numbers; add lib-tk to path. 1998-08-08 20:11:02 +00:00
Guido van Rossum f4edff022c More files to be ignored. 1998-08-08 20:07:20 +00:00
Guido van Rossum c499572a98 This file's previous log message is bogus. The real change is that
when it gets the path from the registry, it no longer appends the
default path to the end (which would mostly be a duplication).
1998-08-08 20:05:31 +00:00
Guido van Rossum be10c20adf Now include Python.h 1998-08-08 20:01:22 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 639ccae5f6 This file's previous log message is bogus.
The real change is that it now includes "Python.h".
1998-08-08 20:00:49 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 67ab67218b Different version games:
- MS_DLL_ID is now set to "1.5" instead of "1.5.x" so Mark Hammond's
  extensions won't have to be changed.
- FILEVERSION and PRODUCTVERSION are set to 1,5,2,1.
  (The last number could be the build# or the alpha release# or so.)

Guido van Rossum 1a87be1422 Shouldn't include the lib pragma when building python15.dll itself! 1998-08-08 18:25:43 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 444383039d Added _PyTuple_Resize to list of exported symbols. Don't know how it
could hide so long...

Barry Warsaw 1b3442493a (py-execute-region): When temp-names are broken (Emacs 19.34), a
serial number isn't enough to uniquify the temp file name -- what if
two users are on the same machine?  Add in the (emacs-pid) to help
further.  Should never be tickled on Emacs 20, XEmacs 20, 21.

Fred Drake 4d10b43c26 insert_index(): Take two additional parameters: $columns and $letters. Call
buildindex.py appropriately.

	insert_index().

Guido van Rossum 449fdf1d76 The doc string for setDaemon() disagreed with the implementation. The
implementation wins.

Fred Drake 66da9d69fc re is standard, not built-in. 1998-08-07 18:57:18 +00:00
Guido van Rossum ed9dcc10f8 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.

Added some dependencies to some of the HTML generation targets.
1998-08-07 18:01:37 +00:00
Guido van Rossum d89fa0c576 Add built-in string variables 'quit' and 'exit' that display a hint on
how to exit (in a platform dependent way!).  We use os.sep to
determine which platform we're on, since I expect that this will work
better for minority platforms.
1998-08-07 18:01:14 +00:00
Guido van Rossum aee5e26f4b Add warning that mutable argument defaults are evaluated only once;
with examples and workaround.  This keeps coming up, and I believe
that this section in the tutorial may have been (in part) the source
of the confusion.  While it didn't show examples with [] for a default,
it also didn't emphasize enough why that would be a bad idea, and
while it did say that defaults are evaluated at the point of function
definition, the example was not relevant for this issue.
