Alexander Belopolsky c142bba2a7 Issue #1667546: On platforms supporting tm_zone and tm_gmtoff fields
in struct tm, time.struct_time objects returned by time.gmtime(),
time.localtime() and time.strptime() functions now have tm_zone and
tm_gmtoff attributes.  Original patch by Paul Boddie.

Victor Stinner 2b89fdf7eb PEP 418: Rename adjusted attribute to adjustable in time.get_clock_info() result
Fix also its value on Windows and Linux according to its documentation:
"adjustable" indicates if the clock *can be* adjusted, not if it is or was
adjusted.

In most cases, it is not possible to indicate if a clock is or was adjusted.

Victor Stinner ec89539ccc Issue #14428, #14397: Implement the PEP 418
* Rename time.steady() to time.monotonic()
 * On Windows, time.monotonic() uses GetTickCount/GetTickCount64() instead of
   QueryPerformanceCounter()
 * time.monotonic() uses CLOCK_HIGHRES if available
 * Add time.get_clock_info(), time.perf_counter() and time.process_time()
   functions

Victor Stinner ec919cc74d Issue #10278: Drop time.monotonic() function, rename time.wallclock() to time.steady()
* On Mac OS X, time.steady() now uses mach_absolute_time(), a monotonic clock
 * Optimistic change: bet that CLOCK_MONOTONIC and CLOCK_REALTIME are available
   when clock_gettime() is available
 * Rewrite time.steady() documentation

Alexander Belopolsky 2997837158 Fixed documentation to reflect recent changes for years < 1900. 2011-01-08 20:47:21 +00:00
Alexander Belopolsky c64708ae48 Issue #10827: Changed the rules for 2-digit years. The time.asctime
function will now format any year when time.accept2dyear is false and
will accept years >= 1000 otherwise.  The year range accepted by
time.mktime and time.strftime is still system dependent, but
time.mktime will now accept full range supported by the OS. Conversion
of 2-digit years to 4-digit is deprecated.

Alexander Belopolsky b9588b528a Issue #8013: time.asctime and time.ctime no longer call system asctime
and ctime functions.  The year range for time.asctime is now 1900
through maxint.  The range for time.ctime is the same as for
time.localtime.  The string produced by these functions is longer than
24 characters when year is greater than 9999.
